Isn't it the pits, cavey? There is so bloody much I am sure I've forgotten to do. And I thought I was paying all this money for a full packing service so that I wouldn't have to worry about anything!

Northey · 03/01/2012 07:53

Apologies for being a self-obsessed nervous wreck today, by the way.

SantasCave · 03/01/2012 08:00

No apologies needed!

I'm sure you've thought of this already, but just make sure you have easy access to your kettle, tea bags, a few mugs and the milk! Have a "priority" box with basics like a couple of plates, cutlery, a saucepan, etc so that you can at least eat tonight without worrying about unpacking 20 different boxes!

It will be over before you know it - lots of deep breaths!

Yup, we moved form Leeds to the Channel Islands in August - it was very, very stressful. Hang in there.

blonderthanred · 03/01/2012 09:42

Good luck with the move, Northey.

Purple wee? Now there's an idea.

SantasCave · 03/01/2012 11:28

Day 21 bloods confirm ovulation. My level was 59 which the nurse said was good.

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 11:41

Good luck with the move, Northey. Careful in this wind!

I must change my name back. But what to? Ariesgirl is shit - I've always thought that. AriesWoman? BarrenAries? Ramsbottom?

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 11:42

PS good news on the ovulation, Cavey. Let the WOOFLing commence.

blonderthanred · 03/01/2012 11:42

AriesAutomatic?

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 11:44

Hello Blondie. How are you?

AriesAutomatic? Hmmmm

Northey · 03/01/2012 11:46

Oh my GOD this is stressful.

eurochick · 03/01/2012 11:46

This travaille malarky is shit. Not that there is much actual travaille occurring here.

That's good news about your day 21 test. 59 is a really strong result.

Northey · 03/01/2012 11:47

Anyone know what is the appropriate tip for moving men?

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 11:47

What does 59 signify?

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 11:48

You tip them? Shock Don't the buggers get paid? How about a fiver each?

Northey · 03/01/2012 11:52

I don't know! It is such insane weather, I kind of feel I should. But not if the going rate is £50 each or something. And I don't want to insult them with too little.

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 12:01

How many of them are there?

Just read this. Does that seem ok? Keep them supplied with tea and biscuits as well. Remember you don't HAVE to tip them as well, if they are grumpy or mean. If they are nice and do a good job, then perhaps a tenner each? Depending on how many there are? Or £20 between them?

SantasCave · 03/01/2012 12:02

Northey if you want to give them a tip then I'm sure a rennet each would be plenty - it is their job after all!

Rie I had to go away and look up what my "59" meant. According to Google, which is never wrong (Wink) over 15 indicates ovulation but you need to get to over 30 within 7 days of ov to stand a good chance of implantation (if there is a bean). Progesterone peaks at 7dpo and I'm fairly certain I ov'd on Day 18 or 19, so to get to 59 within 2/3 days is a good result.

I need to shed my festive name too, not sure what to go for but I shall have a ponder.

SantasCave · 03/01/2012 12:04

Bloody auto correct!

"rennet" = "tenner".

I am not advocating you give them the extract from a cow's stomach Hmm

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 12:05

"A rennet each" Ha ha ha ha ha haahaaaahahhaaaaaaaaa1!11!11 Are you on your phone, Cavey love?

So it's a measure of progesterone? I have been thinking a lot about damn progesterone today.

SantasCave · 03/01/2012 12:25

This stuff is just not going to fit in the new house! Argh!

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 12:37

Stuff schmuff. I'm going to do a massive clear out today. I'm going to be ruthless

AriesWithBellsOn · 03/01/2012 12:39

Hasn't been much Franglais lately. Are we all out of inspiration?
