9.18am and no sign. Maybe you've all finally realised that Marmite is a poison and have gone out to buy some decent apricot jam.

Its only because I'm 40 in a couple of months. 20 somethings make me twitch with envy!

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:39

Life begins!! I have a daughter who is 20 something!!!

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:40

Oho Mo didnt realise you were old as well

Now she tells me.

I get a bit twitchy when I realise that my kids are older than all you lot!!

I had a lass come swimming with us today, she is just training, She was 10 years younger than my son!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:42

Lace in April my son will be 30 something!

How the heck did that happen!!!!!!!!!!

Who turned the clock forward that fast!

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:42

I'm not old, I'm vintage, like a good wine!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 21:43

ChantillyLace - oh yeah, I'm a fucking looney all right!!!

Mo - OMG....you did....I was...

And 'skin of my teeth'????? DH wants to know if HIS age has anything to do with that comment???

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:44

It is scary, when I say 20 something she's about to turn 21, I also have an 18 yr old and a 3 yr old! How the hell did that happen????!!!!!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 21:44

Mo - just wanted to add that I loved that post and read it out to dh - I think it might just have helped, at least we've just spoken

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 21:45

As for MSN - why am I not in your gang [cries] (again!!!)

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:45

Lace I like that come and sit in my comfy corner, by the fire (we may let Mo in' in January if she behaves herself)

The youngsters can sit the hard chairs by the door

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:45

My DH is younger than me, well they say you're only as old as the man that you feel.....what better way to feel young!?

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:46

Oh I'm liking the comfy corner! Making me feel my yearsthough!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 21:47

Oh, I'm just dh's 'retirement plan'

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:47

Looney Add me I thought I had added you!!!! just looked and Ive just got your angels email

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:48

Well we all need someone we love to push the old bath chair!

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:48

Lace , so is mine, by 10 years, well we have to have something to make up for the creaky bones

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 21:49

Oh....don't know your details. Mine are [email protected]

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:50

Mine's 6 years younger but I have the advantage of him looking older than me! Oh how smug am I????

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:51

Lace I have great respect, a 3 year old, God I couldnt do that at my age, I have a 11 DGD I was bringing up, that was tiring enough.

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 21:52

What you do with your teeth and skin is frankly no of my business! Like his style though!

Did you not know that I'm nearly 40. I will tell you again and again, as the date approaches! Its 20th January btw! Its a Sunday, so I will expect special opening of the Staff room and permission to slurp from the bottle all day! I'm having a party on 19th and lunch with the family on 20th. Kbear will be making ME a cake. I haven't told her yet!

As to getting on MSN, I have no idea how! I use DD's and its got all weird icons that come up all over the place, so I have to do it in capitals coz it gives me a headache. Please join in, she'll be thrilled! tiggerlou at hotmail dot com, I think.

ChantillyLace · 17/10/2007 21:53

It is hard sometimes. Especially when you have played cars on the floor for an hour and then you try to stand up! Where did my ability to make my bones move go??

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 21:53

Oh it might be .co.uk, dunno! Ask Meg!

maximummummy · 17/10/2007 21:55

wow - staff rooms busy tonight

i gotta a new mindee

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 21:55

I've started taking codliver oil and evening primrose oil for my joints! I went for a body MOT last month too! Got the results and I've got high blood pressure. Not a big issue, but needs a 'non urgent' appointment with the nurse.

Megsdaughter · 17/10/2007 21:55

Looney turn you bloody MSN on

Lace are you on MSN
