Oh god Mrs that picture is me 😂😂😂 I am planning a trip to the supermarket tomorrow to 'stock up' - there is absolutely no need as the cupboards are stocked and we are only forecast a dusting Grin

300

🎄 🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅

Tomorrow will be the milestone where we enter the 200s...who's staying up tonight to post first?! (Not me; I'm ill with a nasty cold, which is epic timing given I'm doing overtime which is knackering on its own!).

NurseryFightClub · 28/02/2018 06:38

Hello, can I join,? With all this snow my DD (2.5) thinks its Christmas 🤶 and who am I to spoil that!

TheWoollybacksWife · 28/02/2018 07:18

I'll be up Fluffy - waiting for senior school news Envy

NoWordForFluffy · 28/02/2018 07:25

Oh yes, of course, Woolly. I forgot it's tomorrow.

Was BS the first choice in the end? Good luck!

I'm not worried this year for DS as he's a sibling, so is number 2 on the priority list. DD wasn't, so it depended on number of siblings and distance last year. We don't find out until April, however.

Hi, Nursery! Welcome! 🎄🎅🎄🎅

WreckTangled · 28/02/2018 07:54

Hi nursery!

No snow here. Humph. The roads look very icy though and I'm about four miles from the main road.

Mrsmadevans · 28/02/2018 08:09

Morning all!
300 whayhay! Xmas Shock Xmas Grin
No snow of any consequence yet , just a token smattering , am a bit Xmas Hmm am looking forward to it like a big kid
Welcome Nursery!
Fluffy that is terrible timing l hate colds so much hope you feel better very quickly my dear. Must be horrible commuting/working o/t and a cold to top it all!
Keep the home fires burning tonight Woolly and post the 299 yay! Hope DC gets into the school you want . I can remember those days too, my DD1 got in and then the siblings were the first priority in their school , that was 10 yrs ago so DD2 went automatically. l don't know what the policy is now though but we were very happy with our decision and talking to the DD2 yest she said she loved her school and was very happy there , so we did something right mwhahahaha !
Probably the only thing we did get right in her eyes lol!
Anyway l am just watching the weather and they are saying now that it may all change depending on wind/current/ etc etc so they are covering their behinds lol! As they do .
Have a great day everyone , take care !

We had a decent amount, not enough to close my office but I live in hope for tomorrow!

Got the HR stuff through and signed off as fit for work and protected under the equality act yesterday but still waiting on a firm start date.

It’s 299 days.........and it looks like Christmas outside! 🎄🎄🎄🎄

No snow here, but practically an ice rink at the back door because of a pipe overflow Hmm. Poor DDog was not happy this morning - he had a full Bambi moment and was skidding all over the place.

Good luck for you & your DC Woolly. Get better soon Fluffy

NoWordForFluffy · 28/02/2018 09:49

Blacksmiths, it's 300. Your count has the extra hours on it which make it 300 sleeps!

FridgeCut · 28/02/2018 10:18

It is so cold! I am sat in hospital waiting for my appointment. Left early in case of accidents and parking issues. Now have 40 minutes to go.

Welcome newbies :)

Good luck for school news, I am dreading that already and wilf is only in foundation!

Mrsmadevans · 28/02/2018 16:18

Blacksmith....what a lovely view from your window, it is 300 sleeps today sweetie , we count by sleeps here see it has caused confusion before Xmas Wink . It is going to be 299 sleeps after midnight tonight , Woolly has nominated herself to do the declaration tonight ... did you realise that Woolly Xmas Grin?
Fridge hope the appt went well and you are all set for the OP my lovely.
Still no snow , am getting cheesed off with it now because we are all set with full cupboards and heating cranked up just waiting for the promised deluge lol Xmas Grin

I'm poised and prepared MrsMad Grin

BS is 2nd choice Fluffy. 1st choice is the one we currently live very close to. It would be ironic if he gets 1st choice given that we are about to move six miles further awayConfused. Oh well, what will be, will be.

Mrsmadevans · 28/02/2018 17:42

Good girl Woolly..... taking one for the team Xmas Grin

SallyDog · 28/02/2018 18:42

The beach froze over today & the schools are closed "just in case" tomorrow Grin but STILL NO SNOW Angry.

Hope everyone has a cosy evening planned....

TheWoollybacksWife · 01/03/2018 00:02

299

Nothing so far about schools. I'm going to give it a few more minutes and then I'm off to bed.

NoWordForFluffy · 01/03/2018 05:35

Oh god, Woolly. I hope it's come through now!

I was up until late sewing sodding World Book Day costume as the postman didn't bring the stuff on Tuesday so it was a mad rush. 😡

But...Peter Rabbit will be happening today. DD will be so exited!

Come one come all .Welcome everyone . It’s countdown to Christmas 2018!
blacksmiths09 · 01/03/2018 06:15

Morning all!

Do you know that today is 200 sleeps until 16th Sept when it’s only 100 days till Xmas?!?

😂🎄🎄🎄😂

NoWordForFluffy · 01/03/2018 06:22

😂😂😂

Which means it's 249 days until my birthday which is 50 days before Christmas!

TheWoollybacksWife · 01/03/2018 06:51

It wasn't good news I'm afraid. He got none of his preferences and unless there was a mistake made we don't have grounds for appeal. Off to break the news to him now. Sad

NoWordForFluffy · 01/03/2018 08:00

Oh god. How on earth can that happen?

I'm shocked. Where did you get allocated?

HairsprayBabe · 01/03/2018 08:16

So cold today, snow is light but persistent, office is still open. I still have my coat on!

Mrsmadevans · 01/03/2018 09:29

Oh Woolly that is disappointing , l so hope he gets to go with some of his friends and the school he goes to turns out to be lovely .
Fluffy love the bunny shoes so sweet she will look adorable well done!
Blacksmith that is right lol you got it ! Xmas Grin
Sally the beach froze omg ! No snow here yet wait and see .....
Hairspray no snow of any consequence yet apparently it is lunchtime so will update you all then!
