...................CM Staff Room..............................................

[Shoshable]

God I dont want to go back to work today!

Hi Hennipenni yes I'm new to MN (lurked for a while) would you like a cup of coffee? I love the idea of a staff room. I've been a Registered CM since Sept 2006, and I have just 2 families, 3 children and I work 3 and a half days a week.

Would love tea- don't like coffee!!! Have to run as I'm doing a curry for tea. Mindee still here but in the guise of DDs best friend tonight (and they are best friends),

I've been on mn for 3 years and minding for the same.

Tea coming up (poncey assam ). Curry sounds good, we're having salad, too busy on MN to cook (can't be arsed actually)

Whats with these teabags? {Mo sprays tea across the room} You must have an Outstanding from Ofsted Julia, over in this corner we drink PG!

DD in charge of remaining mindee now, only 10 minutes to go, they are tidying up the playroom. (Gosh, don't I sound grand - the ^playroom!) I actually mean the half finished extension, that I store the toys in for now!!

Its the only thing I'm poncey about hee hee. Am merely good according to OFSTED bah! Any hoo bathtime for my DCs then out to Band Practice so catch you all tomorrow for another day at the coalface (Best job in the world though) x

Mattys Mummy drags herself into the staff room and kneels infront of all those CM's with more than one mindee and declares herself not worthy.

I have one mindee for over 40 hours a week, I am shattered already ! Never mind the tea can I just have the G(in), no T(ea) please ??

and to top today off, DH has gone off to footie and DS was sick all over the bathroom thankfully before his bath and not afterwards !

I dont often come on MN but you girls have been making me giggle the past few days or so so I though I would pop in and say hello.

Any chance there is any biscuits left ???

Im down to two full time and two after school till July then back to 4 under % and 2 after school, better than last year TEN in total then, never again

Im getting to old for it

Shosha - 10?! Wow. I get tired of saying to my 3 under 3's - "No darling, please leave the gate/door open/closed" (depending on what they are slamming at the time!) - I swear I saw more grey hair the other day!

It's fab though, and my own 16 month (included in that ramble of under 3 year olds) is loving the company. So much that she was jumping with excitement when she say mindee 1 arrive bright and early this am.

Oh, and MM - do please pour me a virtual double G&T won't you? Lemon please.

Crace it was only because I had 7 and the CM next door got posted atthe end of July and her over 8's were not posted till the end of August so I had them all, not fun as 5 of them were 10 year old girls, OMG the compition!

I've been known to look the VonTrapp family at times too! I think at the worst, I had 8 and when I wlaked to school with a friend and her kids, it looked like we had 12 between us! [Mo checks to see no-one is looking and sneaks some more gin out of the filing cabinet]

Mo, what have you got hidden in there, are you coming into the bar with me, I'll hold your hand if your scared.

I'll give it another go, but I've got to collect dd from Guides at 9 and they are always late, so it could be a crucial 20 mins or so that I miss!

I need a large G an T and while I'm at it would anybody like a 6 yr old girl? She's fully house trained but a little feral at times!!!!Talk about attitude, if she'd have been DD1 I wouldn't have gone on to have nos 2 an 3.

I'll swap you for an 11 year old girl anyday! [Mo slaps on a bit of lippy in readiness for the bar - eek!]

No can do unless you want a 12yr old and 9 yr old thrown in for 'nowt!

Oh forgot to add their both girls. Does that matter?!!!

OMG! 3 of them - here have the bottle!
