I'll have tea and toast please SM

StrawberryMartini · 08/10/2007 07:43

Orrible clod sounds far more sinister. Hope you feel better soon.

On a good note first time with all the kids in new car, they wont know themselves with so much room.

MaureenMLove · 08/10/2007 08:02

Marmite on mine please. Help yourself!

StrawberryMartini · 08/10/2007 08:20

Um sorry Maureen but if you want marmite you'll have to find somewhere else. It's banned in here.

Nooooo! I WILL start a rival staff room if you don't let me eat marmite? I even brough cake with me fgs! MARMITE! MARMITE!MARMITE!

MamaGonnaShagOrlando · 08/10/2007 08:34

oooh Shosha have you got a new car? How exciting! Mo - urgh at marmite! You all need to be EXTRA NICE to poor Looney today, as you abandoned her yesterday and I had to step into the breech

Katymac · 08/10/2007 08:36

Morning All

I'm in the no marmite camp I am afriad but if you don't use too much and promise not to come too close, I'll let you have some

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 08/10/2007 08:49

MARMITE, MARMIE, MARMITE!!!!! I was bloody weaned on marmite and it's like an addiction, can't have no marmite!!!!!

Thanks MamaG and sorry about the stone cold tea yesterday

Well I still have the throat from hell and achy bones - sounds like it's going round. Had to close today as ds had the runs all weekend and this morning he threw up - bet LMGs is glad we didn't come up after all! Thing is, ds is still full of beans so i certainly won't get any rest today lol.

Oh.....for those who missed.......the mum of the 2 sisters was ok at me closing today, she understood (well, sounded ok on phone). Not so sure she'll be ok about me closing tomorrow but it looks like I'll have to due to him being sick and just having another runny pull up (yes, it's that bad he's wearing pull ups - i'm feeling too rough to chase him about with a bucket and disinfectant!!)

Right, I'll let you off the marmite toast as I don't think I can swallow anything today but I WILL be having it when I'm better!!! [Mo, I'll happily join you in another staff room ]

Sorry to others who are feeling rough, it's that bloomin time of year isn't it!!

Ghostashoshabuster · 08/10/2007 08:59

looney we had that bug last week, kids seem to be absolutly fine aprt from throwing up!

BEWARE we all got ot and the adults certainly didnt feel fine!

I went to school with my new bus and the other CM's laughed and said it wasnt a car it was a bus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PAH they are just jealous thay cant fit thier mindees in as well.

Ghostashoshabuster · 08/10/2007 09:00

MARMITE MARMITE MARMITE

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 08/10/2007 09:05

Shosh - how long did it last? Ds has his first suspect number 2 on Friday morning - we thought he'd eaten something bad as he was fine in himself and then all weekend had the runs and then 2am this morning he woke up in sick Just wondering how long it's likely to last. I feel bad enough with the cold lol.

As if parents weren't annoyed enough with the Chicken Pox he just had

I HATE HATE HATE having to tell parents I can't open, I get dead nervous about telling them.

What car did you get again, do I remember correctly it being a Bongo? If so, yes, they are like buses aren't they but great for space.

Glad to see you in the marmite club Shosh

Ghostashoshabuster · 08/10/2007 09:16

looney it was only 24 hours here from being start to finish.

Yes its a Bongo, not the prettiest car in the world, but god so practical.
(and cos it was a cheap import we can look around for a nice little car for us )

MaureenMLove · 08/10/2007 09:16

Couldn't we have the old smoking area as marmite area? I'd hate to split the staff room. So sorry I wasn't around yesterday, its such a PITA when rl gets in the way isn't it! I'm here now - don't have a life during the week!

Ghostashoshabuster · 08/10/2007 09:21

We will form a Marmite clique

This has the potential to be worse than the breast/bottle debate! See what you've started SM!

Ghostashoshabuster · 08/10/2007 09:44

Shosha draws a line in chalk through the middle of the staff room (making sure that the table with the cake is in OUR half.)

Ok keep to your side you nonmarmiteeating freaks

Huddles in the corner with Mo and Looney ala The Three Witches.

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 08/10/2007 10:07

Mo - sounds good to me. 'Wanna be in my gang, my gang, my gang, wanna be in my gaaaa.......'

Shosh - blimey, ds been a LOT longer than 24 hours!!! I wonder if the Chicken Pox knocked his immune system which is why it's affecting him for longer? . Was yours D & V or just V?

MissInvisible · 08/10/2007 10:08
