SquonkTheBeerGuru · 18/04/2008 22:13

going to get off to bed guys.

Am leaving the phone downstairs, so I won't be updating anything till the morning now.

Of course, scorpio herself might, so you lot can all stay up and thread-watch if you like

cheers, I've been tweaking every night for 2 weeks, maybe tonight's the night! night again

dizzydixies · 18/04/2008 22:14

squonk rule 8 states that

'she who is in charge of mobile phone must be awake and able to update at all times'

night x

SquonkTheBeerGuru · 18/04/2008 22:16

yes, but rule number 9 states

"updating birth thread shall remain entirely at the phone-holder's discretion and thread-watchers must abide by her rules at all times"

so rule 9 cancels out rule 8.

ta-ra

Tigerschick · 19/04/2008 07:44

Any news?????

SquonkTheBeerGuru · 19/04/2008 08:03

just so's you all know, I checked my phone at 4.00am, 5.30am and 7am.

Had there been any news I would have immediately fired up the laptop.

Phone completely silent.

come on scorpio, we want a pic of millie

dizzydixies · 19/04/2008 08:06

oh squonky - I take it all back, your devotion is admirable!!

scorpio I hope you're not on because you and millie are all snuggled up in your cosey bed at home mooning over each other and not worrying a jot about anything else

SquonkTheBeerGuru · 19/04/2008 08:07

I almost left the computer on so I could post nothing reports through the night, but I'd already switched it off, and it didn't seem worth putting it on again.

And I wasn't being devoted really, I was up with the littlies. I just checked the phone as I was passing
