Coffees on, Do you think we need to intice a few newbies in, or is it just me that we are dwindling in numbers at the mo?

Morning!! Not raining here either but the sky isn't looking good!
New mindee starting this morning - just waiting for her arrive now! Feeling a bit nervous which is silly I suppose but I haven't had a new one in a while!

mumlove · 21/01/2008 08:17

Morning everyone, it's not raining here to yet, but like belle said the sky is getting darker!!
Have a great day.

KatyMac · 21/01/2008 08:18

Not raining here - but soon......

My coursework has just been rejected

So I need to look at it again

Which is is sad because I thought it was really good

Pinkranger · 21/01/2008 08:18

Good morning all!! Really shouldnt indulged in the cakes but hey, pass them over
I am off today ( yea!!!!) so am spending my day going to the tip, going the gym and cleaning not sure whats better!!
All have a good day, also no rain here either!!!! does look dark ?? x

southernbelle77 · 21/01/2008 08:40

Oh Katy, what a shame. Sorry about that

New mindee here and you'd never know she was new! Straight away she started playing with dd and wasn't the least bit concerned when parent left! That's a good start And they live just round the corner too so maybe a new playmate for dd after the temporary childminding is over.

OMG, just noticed two drips coming through the living room ceiling. That is NOT good .
Maybe we won't b going out later as will have to get someone out asap as can not find where it is coming from. Must be the shower I think.

ROSEgarden · 21/01/2008 09:19

crace · 21/01/2008 09:24

Morning girls, just a fly by visit - full house and I am so so tired and therefore crabby. I hate days when I feel like this.

Hope all are well

MaureenMLove · 21/01/2008 09:29

Oh, how did I end up back in here? I was just doing a google search for canape recipes and it directed me to a thread on here! Not this one obviously, but I figured since I was back on MN, I'd pop in!

Yes thanks Rose, I did get my card and I had a lovely day. Got loads of money, which I'm going to save and spend on finishing touches to the new kitchen/diner.

Morning everyone I am not working today but thought I would pop in and say Hi! Took the opportunity to have a lie in today seen as I didn't have to get up.

Ummm cake [kay scoffs a piece quick before ds smells it!]

mumlove · 21/01/2008 11:19

Just because I have to take 2 mindees on the preschool run, the rain has started!!

southernbelle77 · 21/01/2008 12:17

Well first morning with new mindee went well. Just went home and was very happy so that's good! They were so pleased that she settled in so well and played nicely with dd!
I've now popped in here to have a lovely piece of cake before rushing out to preschool!
Oh and waiting for the plumber to come to sort out the shower (which it is as can see the square water mark up there now!) so hopefully that will get sorted today too.

maximummummy · 21/01/2008 12:26

ooh cake yes please!

my dc are both full of cold so no school for them and mindee fast asleep !

maximummummy · 21/01/2008 12:30

MaureenMLove · 21/01/2008 12:39

Oh god, now what?

I've managed to upload one picture. Not of cake though. Its of me! Be quick, its not stopping!

BoysAreLikeDogs · 21/01/2008 12:41

Mo !

You are so glam, get you.

maximummummy · 21/01/2008 12:42

i didn't imagine you to look like that - i thought you'd have short hair - i've no idea why though!!!! it's a nice picture Mo

MaureenMLove · 21/01/2008 12:52

Glam! That was Sunday afternoon wear, you wait til this weekend! I might go for a bit of bling! That is so not my best pcture! There's another one of me and Kbear, but I'll have to ask her first. Force of habit, to get permission before using a picture of someone else!
