brilliant jamtastic - but as a late arrival to the picnic discussion if there aren't enough strawberry tarts to go round its last in first out and you'll need to make do with a custard slice
we're thinking of cairnie farm when the weather is a bit nicer?

I have 2dds, nearly 5 and nearly 2 so I'm sure they'll all have a ball

keep in touch

God yes hate bridges in the wind... Friarton one was awful yesterday.

Hope you had a dirty great big cake in Borders!

Talking of 'fannying about in the shops', that's exactly what I'm about to do tomorrow, and I can't wait let me tell ye!

Going to Edinburgh on the train to spend my Xmas money (from dh) on some new clothes... I am sooo looking forward to it. I am taking a book for the train and going to have a leisurely lunch by myself with my book! Yeeehaa!

PinkPussyCat · 22/02/2008 16:31

OOh sorry for x-post

Hi jamtastic!

Your name always makes me want a jammy piece!

dizzydixies · 22/02/2008 16:32

I could grow to dislike you you know!

and I had 3 custard filled chocolate donuts in my defence they were mini ones and sold as a package!

PinkPussyCat · 22/02/2008 16:33

dizzydixies · 22/02/2008 16:33

PinkPussyCat · 22/02/2008 16:45

OK dizzy, catch up soon. Hope you get them off to bed nice + early so as you can stick a dvd on or something. Have a good weekend!

PinkPussyCat · 22/02/2008 16:47

Hi all

Haven't posted for a few days and it's taken me a while to catch up on all the chat.

Hoohoo where are you? and Klaw?

Had a tiring week - 19 weeks pg today and starting to ache a bit - ligament pain and headaches...not able to rest in the day really with 5 other dcs...not complaining ...much

Sorry...think I'll feel better when the sun is shining and we are at Cairnie eating strawberry tarts xx

dizzydixies · 22/02/2008 21:23

minipink do you mind if I ask you do you work in anstruther as well?

have you thought about going to osteo/physio re aching, am certainly going to do it this time in hope of getting things lined up for birth?

sorry about your headaches, I had terrible ones with dd1 but fingers crossed not this time, lots of water and rest, well as much as you can with your bunch!

minipinkscottish · 22/02/2008 21:29

No dd not in Anstruther - I work as PT at Freuchie Primary.

Think I might consider going to something - the muscle cramp I get in one or other side of bump is terrible....bad if a I do too much ...bad if I sit too much...

I am drinking loads of water but then never out of loo...ah the joys!!!!
How are you keeping...still confined to house? When is your next scan?
xx

dizzydixies · 22/02/2008 21:36

still confined lol - am taking some tentative trips as bleeding has eased and frankly am demented! scan on wed morning then consultant so fingers crossed

have a friend going for interview at anstruther which was why was asking, principal teacher position temp until july '09 i think, can't really remember

hope your aches and pains ease off soon, can't be easy - I always found lying on left side helped if thats any use?

dizzydixies · 25/02/2008 08:15

PPC how was you trip to Edinburgh?!

PinkPussyCat · 25/02/2008 22:33

Helloooo!

Well I feel a bit bad for saying this & don't want to moan BUT....

Grrr... it was grim. Best bit was the train home (I fell asleep!)

It was soooo windy I though I was going to be cut in half, just had to duck in & out of shops looking like something the cat dragged in. I wore STOOPID boots which started to hurt within an hour (came home with 2 big blisters)

Also, I kind of felt like I don't 'fit in' anywhere anymore... Gap etc full of students, M&S full of old wifies, New Look etc full of 12 year olds. Maybe it's something to do with having had ds. None of it seemed interesting to me anymore. I had the best fun looking at all the children's clothes! Which was really not the point of the trip. So I bought 2 t-shirts from Next, then the rest of the stuff I bought was for ds!

I think I'm going to have to become a mail order sort of gal. Where do you shop for clothes dizzy?

dizzydixies · 26/02/2008 11:03

oh no, am sorry you didn't enjoy it. am the same though, much prefer getting stuff for kids than me but then thats more to do with not shifting baby weight!

at the moment am all about the maternity clothing but at other times I like
Oasis/warehouse/gap for basics/new look and primark - got to love a bargin! am also a bit of a home shopper online too - most of the high street shops have online stores and I am more than willing to spend money on delivery if it saves me traising round the shops!

were you looking for anything in particular or just some nice new stuff?

Klaw · 26/02/2008 23:09

Oxfam, British Heart Foundation, Ebay, Tesco....
