PinkPussyCat · 13/02/2008 21:35

louii · 13/02/2008 21:42

I'm in Markinch, was at Uni in Dundee and stayed up menzieshill in halls.

dizzydixies · 13/02/2008 21:43

wimberly houses? they've been sold now and they're being demolished

I was at uni in dundee 94-00 but stayed in westpark then various flats

louii · 13/02/2008 22:00

Hillside halls of residence if i remember correctly, was a bit of a mental year that one, lol

dizzydixies · 13/02/2008 22:21

according to dh its closed down as well. we drove past westpark on the perth road a wee while ago and I nearly didn't recognise it, then again it HAS been nearly 14yrs!

ScottishSusan · 14/02/2008 07:51

Hi all

Wow where did all you people come from?

Welcome!!!

I am in Auchtermuchty hoohoo - near the school. You must have seen my lot around!!

Be nice to say hi in person sometime

Markinch isn't very far either louii - come to think of it Dundee isn't too far either!!

Maybe we can all have a get together - a big picnic in the summer maybe.....hee! hee! Am I getting carried away?

dizzydixies · 14/02/2008 22:40

susan always delighted to picnic - cairnie farm is a favourite of ours, can be found there most sunny days in the summer

hoohoo · 15/02/2008 17:57

Hi all
ScottishSusan i think i know you but could be wrong
DizzyDixies three is not too bad some days are harder than others, but i think its the same no matter how many children you have. Both my oldest sons are at nursery now so i get a little break altho my mum is fab
I think a picnic would be fab i don't know many others with kids as my friends don't have any...so it would be nice for my boys too

dizzydixies · 15/02/2008 18:10

hoohoo am going to hold you to that, my third is due in july and am not sure how am going to cope somedays. DD1 starts school in aug and dd1 at nursery in the mornings so maybe that will keep me sane - I have NO idea how scottishsusan does it and she swears she doesn't have staff or a sahdh!!! I don't have any support other than my friends as dh's family are in ireland and manage over about once a year and mine are the far side of glasgow and pretty useless for one reason and another - goodness knows I'll probably leave one of them in Tescos or something!

minipinkscottish · 15/02/2008 18:39

Hi all!

Changed my nickname - thanks to dizzydixie - had to go fo the pink thing!!

dizzy dixie - I haven't seen you on ante natal thread - I will try to give you link - Ha! - maybe I haven't done that before!

Give me a minute xx

minipinkscottish · 15/02/2008 18:44

Ok here goes

Anyway - honest I do not have staff and SAHDH - don't make me laugh

dizzydixies · 15/02/2008 18:53

thanks minipink - loving the new name, does this mean I get dibs on naming propery newmini pinkscottish then?!?!?!

am on the due in August thread because am hopeless and got all dates wrong prior to scans, they're a lovely bunch and seeing as I'm due 30th July I just stayed - in a horrible sense I think I would prefer to be one of the first to go than sitting waiting watching everyone else lol

minipinkscottish · 15/02/2008 19:04

dizzydixie - I'm relying on you to come up with some names - as many as possible xx

That's good your on a good ante natal thread - no chance of me reaching August - usually go a bit early [said that very quietle - don't want to tempt fate!!]

xx

dizzydixies · 15/02/2008 19:13

well we can waddle round cairnie sometime in june then!

Am thinking something along the line of '6' as a name for your wee one, I still don't know how you do it! lol

hoohoo · 15/02/2008 19:41

minipinkscottish i have no idea of what clue to give you. Not in any cliques! I live just down from sands, my mum lives in westbank and if you are who i think you are you taught my little brother matthew(he's 20 now) at school. However i bet you still don't know And i have a black Zafira!?! I think you'll know who my mum is rather than me.

dizzydixies my oldest goes to school in August too...how time flies! I find the mornings hectic trying to get everyone fed, dressed etc. My two boys play well together as they are so close so occupy themselves a bit so i can deal with ds3.

hoohoo · 15/02/2008 20:42

Also meant to say congratulations to you both!!!
My Ds3 was due 12th of August and was born 20th of July!

dizzydixies · 15/02/2008 20:55

thank you
dd1 was july and dd2 will be 2 in may so think it will hit her the hardest but heyho no choice now lol

minipinkscottish · 16/02/2008 14:00

hoohoo Dh thinks he knows who you are and so do I but i think he is thinking of a different person than me - Mmmmmmmmm! Fun - guessing game xx

I don't remember your brother - at least not by first name!

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

PinkPussyCat · 16/02/2008 15:18

Hope everyone is well!

How old is your ds3, Hoohoo? My shares his birthday!

Am quite of all you Fifers knowing each other/thinking you know each other...

I am definitely up for a June picnic too! Strawberry tarts here we come..!

PinkPussyCat · 16/02/2008 15:19

mine

dizzydixies · 16/02/2008 18:27

PPC its only minipink and hoohoo that think they know each other, I am north east fife just over the bridge - I shall however be easily recognisable at Cairnie as the heavily pregnant waddling woman with a plate of strawberry tarts bought on the pretence of sharing with others when in fact to be snaffled before everyone arrives

'hi everyone, am dizzydixies, I can't believe it but they've no strawberry tarts left, I understand if you want to try somewhere else for the picnic'
