funny that saf- I was just discussing a trip to Matlock bath with DH last night - he wants to go to Matlock to see some interesting trains so I was suggesting going to Matlock bath as well.

Mittz · 29/05/2010 09:22

yeah SaF, My DD goes to school in Matlock Bath I am in the next village

Mittz · 29/05/2010 09:25

Ooohhh. Shiney people coming to my patch.. My DC's Dad makes Model Trains.. Matlock Bath is awesome.. like someone moved a beach parade to the middle of the Dales. It is a motorbike Haven and the weekends are astonishing...

Morning.

Happy Birthday Trills!

DS got his and DD's breakfast this morning and so I didn't wake up until half eight!

I came downstairs to find them both tucking in as good as gold!

Is DS feeling better this morning saf?

TC sorry about your friend.

Peak district and co. Kerry both sound lovely, where I live is, er, not.

All this talk of boiled eggs - I may have to do myself one now!

Happy Birthday Trills

Hope you have a lovely day.

In a different office today, with a cute man who looks like a fluffy Teddy bear, off to catch up

bellavita · 29/05/2010 09:44

Hey Lizzy how come you are in a different office? Is it nicer?

wastingaway · 29/05/2010 09:45

Happy birthday Trills!!!!

Norma, hope you can get it sorted.

TC, hope you're taking it steady.

Saf, having to relose the weight is a real bummer. I lost five stone once. I'll have to lose 7 to get back to where I was.
That's great if it's exercise taking it down so much.

Lizzy, is he very hairy?

Mittz · 29/05/2010 09:46

I had a bacon and sausage cob... but as part of my daily meal plan..

I have never lived in a city although I was born in one. I like Manchester. Coventry my city of birth, not so much. I don't know why... The shame of supporting my Home Town Football team I guess...

Unless she has DC's I don't know many people in MB, SaF.. would be weird if I knew her though..

Mittz · 29/05/2010 09:51

That would be fab SaF

bellavita · 29/05/2010 09:54

Morning Mitts

I am fine thank you. How is your dd now? Back to full health? I was going to have scrambled egg for lunch, but now since you have mentioned sausage and bacon..... (both are sat in the fridge)

Am still in my pj's. We are leaving at lunchtime and won't be back until sometime on Monday. Have no idea what to pack as the weather is so rubbish.

Ha ha, no he looks like a fluffy teddy bear in a cute Uncle sort of way!
I turned up as usual only to be told "Oh you're in XXX, didnb't anyone tell you?" I hadn't checked my phone after about 6.30pm last night and lo, there was a message, bit cross as they knew all week and didn't tell me
But this office closes at 3pm!

Where in Warwickshire, Bella? Both my parents live there (big county though!).

Watched The Machinist last night, it was good, dark and Christian Bale is sooo thin in it, but good.

Yay for Yank having a Bakewell pudding, they are lovely and no icing, which I was wary of!

Mittz, where you live sounds lovely

Norma and Total, big hugs to you today

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 29/05/2010 10:00

Ooh, yay for mini meets!

Mittz you are a lucky lady, Saf is lovely (though you might want to hide the alcohol)

I'm going to adopt her as my new best friend

Mittz · 29/05/2010 10:00

Yes thank you Bella.. she is her usual bouncy, perky self Pack a 'capsule wardrobe' that can be mixed and matched easily..

Mittz · 29/05/2010 10:02

Warwickshire is my Birth county.. lovely but flat. My grandparents had a bungalow with a view of Coventry and could see a Roman Fort and three spires from their living room.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 29/05/2010 10:02

Lizzy, what's the machinist about?

I'm assuming CB doesn't sit there cutting patterns and doing piece work for two hours?
