We go every school holiday as it's only an hour on the train or less. The train prices have gone up though Angry

I only liked nice smelling things like shampoos and laundry detergent, garlic etc was awful!

In the Sainsbury's café having my eggs on a bagel. 😋🍳

Are they the wowcher trees fluffy as we just got those too. Poor things have just been rained on since they arrived :(

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/04/2018 08:20

I went to the transport museum with school when I was about 10, then again with DS2's class when he was in reception. It's really interesting.

Smells like cigarette smoke made me sick when I was pregnant.

Re Harry Potter, I got DD sorted into her Pottermore house, not a big shock that she's Ravenclaw! I think I've said before, she is Luna Lovegood! Intelligent but spacey. My aunt says spacey but intelligent! She would certainly never have come up with the practical ideas Luna does in HPATDH! Easter Grin

Osopolar, they're Living Social, so probably from the same place. Mum is a gardener more than me and told me to get them planted out ASAP, so I did as I was told!

Rain will be good for them as they need plenty of water to bed in!

The smell of cigarettes (especially stale cigarette smoke) on fellow commuters on the train almost made me 🤢 on the train many a time, Perfectly!

Hope everyone has a good day.

The sun is shining here and the DDs have an activity this afternoon so DH and I are going to have lunch out West by the sea 🌅.

wish I was going to london

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/04/2018 11:30

Mrs are you from Notts? Wink

Osopolar · 11/04/2018 11:47

Yes we followed the instructions of MIL fluffy. The hilarious thing was that hers sat in her kitchen for three days before planting but we were instructed to get ours out immediately Grin

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/04/2018 12:22

Have just made a lasagne for lunch. 😋

NoWordForFluffy · 11/04/2018 12:45

Ours were planted out within 4 hours yesterday, which I thought was quite speedy all told! I have instructions on when to feed them too, so here's hoping. Some look more promising than others, but time will tell.

You're going to show us your DD's undies, Mrs?! 😱😱😱

Dry but overcast here. Just right for newly-put outside tomatoes. Could do with a bit more warmth however!

I'm just about to do my flexible work request as I've almost been at work for 6 months now. Trying to choose between Monday or Friday off. The former you win with annual leave as you get hours back for BHs you're not working. But the latter means a really long weekend when it's a BH. Choices, choices!

FridgeCut · 11/04/2018 14:38

Afternoon all :)

Gabe is so sweet, he found 20p and said "hold hands! christmas tree!", which means, I have found some money and we should hold hands while we walk to choose a christmas tree. He's my christmas angel :)

NoWordForFluffy · 11/04/2018 17:26

Awww. Isn't he lovely?!

Mrsmadevans · 11/04/2018 17:44

Aw Fridge he is such a little darling , I am reduced to tears here such a sweet little boy.
I wouldn't know what you should chose Fluffy but if it means a long weekend then I think I would chose to have the Friday off. I AM going to show you my undies Fluffy mwahahahahaha Xmas Grin
They were a mega bargain I had them for 1.67 each instead of £6 each ! I thought they were very pretty but l would appreciate your input are they suitable for a 24 yr old ? DD1 usually wears Marks reinforced black full briefs for working in Hmm and l thought it would be nice for her to have some pretty ones for a change.
Perfect am from Abergavenny in Monmouthshire not Notts Grin
Lasagne sounds epic, plenty of cheddar on the top yummy!
I cooked a beef strip stir fry for my lot , very nice too if l do say so meself Halo
Sally, lunch out West sounds just lovely ....sigh...
Ceebs glad you do as you are told by MIL sweetie Grin
Here comes the Undies Grin You have been warned Grin

Mrs sorry! They say "me duck" in Notts a lot! Easter Grin

Mrsmadevans · 11/04/2018 17:48

Not my normal viewing but strangely compelling , not for the Saintly or pearl clutchers among us I have to add but great fun Grin
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/3216481-This-photo-of-Paul-Hollywood Have a look at the Polish Cycling team and Darius I have laughed my head off. It is very childish and normally l am not like this at all but it has tickled my fancy Grin

Mrsmadevans · 11/04/2018 17:50

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/04/2018 17:53

Yes, I did put a bucketload of cheddar on the top of my lasagne! It was all mine because the DC are away DH usually heats himself up a Pukka pie when he comes in from work! 😋

Lovely undies! Easter Grin

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/04/2018 17:54

Oh yes, I've been on that thread! What have I missed?

Mrsmadevans · 11/04/2018 17:58

Mrs those knickers look lovely. I'm a bit older than 24 Wink but I would wear them!

We had a great day, we went to the museum, the HP shop, an amazing ice cream parlour, Buckingham palace and then to southbank for dinner. Phew! So tired. Here is a photo of dd with her and ds' ice creams
