ha ha there will be more of that star, wait to the conversation returns to landing strips...

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:22

LOL Well call me Nat, I always feel like I'm in trouble when someone calls me Natalie LOL I know DH has his knickers in a twist when he comes out with Natalie. I think the only person who calls me Natalie in RL is my Gran, but she doesn't say it properly, she says either Natlee, or Natterlee, having said that she still spell's it Nattallie, I have only been around for 24 years, there is time for her to learn yet!

Better than what she does with my nephew, his name is Zachery, but she always calls him, and spells Zebadee, pisses my sister right off, makes me giggle though!

Lol Natalie at never leaving, ever . My MN antenatal group is still going strong 3 years later, so who knows? .
Hi Star, and welcome . I work 4 days a week, and I post more there than when I'm at home with the dds . I can actually sort of justify it though, as I'm doing a research project at the moment on midwives' [perceptions of antenatal screening tests (I've got funding, going through ethics at the mo')]. The lengths I'll go to surf mumsnet eh!
Had a lovely morning out in the park wit5h dds, and how we have the joys of dvds - Heidi on at the moment (that they can't follow, natch, so it requires a running commentary, then we have Alice in Wonderland (hate) and then dd3's choice, Winnie the Pooh (hate).
Right, getting calls for pineapple!

OK, Nat, that works. My sister is really Tilly to us (na-tilly) and it really suits her, she is very tilly-ish (whatever that means). So I know have Tilly, Nathalie and Nat, perfect.

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:32

Actually talking of landing strips, was so funny yesterday, I was in the bath, and we have a corner tub with one of those seat things built in the side, so I was sat on there tidying up, IYKWIM?!! DS2 was alseep in his cot and I had the baby monitor on the loudest it would go so I'd hear him even when I was having my shower (always have a shower after a bath) Anyway, I was perched on this seat thing, and out of no where this bird started really squarking, over the monitor, very loudly, made me jump out of my skin, I very nearly slipped off my perch and chopped the whole lot off in one go LMAO

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:34

How did I manage to say that with out one single ?

Diege · 15/02/2008 13:37

. I have vivid piccy in my mind now NJ (we have a bath like that, though nothing like that goes on on our bath seat . So I gather you went for the full 'hollywood' then? Have you started scratching yet?

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:41

No I saved my landing strip, just, 'tis a bit shorter than normal though, gone from landing jets to light aircraft ! No, I have gotten used to the itches now, do remember the first few times I did it though, oh my god, I remember having to nip to the ladies whilst in town just to have a good old scratch LOL

Stop asking me about my landing strip now please Feeling a little uncomfortable with the fact that in 20 years time from now my DIL could be reading this! LOL

Diege · 15/02/2008 13:45

dd2 has just come over to ask me what I snorting about . Good job she can't read .

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:47

LOL Bless her, see she will be hooked on MN by the time she is 10, I would be careful what you say from now on!!

Teuch · 15/02/2008 13:52

Hullo all and welcome Star...don't worry about keeping up, I can't!!

DS and I went on a 'venture yesterday afternoon to where DH is fencing so we will probably head up there again today...it definitely tired the wee soul out and he slept well last night

Boo-hiss though, I have the cottage to 'do' ths weekend...we rent to local builders and do a changeover or linen/clean every three weeks. It's a great set-up and very profitable but I can always see it far enough when the 3rd weekend rolls around...

Lovely day here but it is damn cold!!

btw at NJ (As usual!!)

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 13:56

I was doing more than sniggering to myself in the bath yesterday!

kayzisbroody · 15/02/2008 14:44

Hello all, Welcome Star.
NJ I'm on the list twice now!

Been swimming with ds he loved it and I'm exhausted, could really do with a sleep now.

No you're not, what you on about woman?

kayzisbroody · 15/02/2008 14:47

I was on twice on the one a couple of pages ago

Playingthewaitinggame · 15/02/2008 15:00

OO I see it didn't take long to desend into maddness! Kay was on twice earlier, did notice it but thought I would keep it too myself! Swimming sounds great Kay, brilliant exercise too.

kayzisbroody · 15/02/2008 15:10

It was great exercise. They had a wave pool and just trying to stay upright was enough exercise.

I'm blooming freezing, I need to get a duvet for downstairs.

BeMyLilBaby · 15/02/2008 15:19

well ladies anew dilemma been invited on interview! position still in current area but better hours might like it better.... what should i do??

NatalieJane · 15/02/2008 15:22

Madness, in here? You must be getting mixed up....!

Where we used to live, in Bedford, there is an amazing indoor water park type thing, haven't been for years but used to have good fun there with the wave machine and the indoor/outdoor whirl pool Was so damn hot in there though, it was like a tropical rainforest, really damp and sweaty
