August Chat

[mellow2]

New thread for August.

i've texted susie.

am sure i'll find the playground. any ETA from you?

hello
hope you're well
what time are you going to be there, sfx and paddle?
may join you
have yet to pack away one thing for building work starting mon and, due to my inability to say no, have got quite a bit of 'work work" on..but....

trying to get any/some of it done with brood around is driving us all bonkers. so need to get out,. i think..

paddle, about your bonus. fight to get it. it's not just the money, is it? it's the fairness of it.

and at your HR "chat", susie. doesn't sound very supportive at all.

sausage, sounded like you sizzled at your presentation

should leave in 20 ten walk along the river

steppie do you want to meet us by the river/ my place? we could walk together

actually might be optimistic saying 20

sfx, got to throw some sarnies together
how about i meet you outside m & s at 12 and we walk to park together?
if that's too late for you, no worries, though

so when you say throw some sarnies together do you mean buy them at M&S?

we just about ready to go but don't mind waiting do you mean just outside the store? was thinking of using the river path rather than the road

just spoke to susie, she'll be there about 1ish I think. I'm just doing the food and will leave then so prob there about 12:30ish

yes, was thinking that, sfx!
but have just made some - literally thrown together.
have got to make a phone call now, so i'll meet you at the playground.

ok we should be heading out nearer to 12 I think dd seems busy with something

okay, we're leaving now.

will text kew and let her know.

have a nice time, ds in nursery so will have to give it a miss

I'm in work with DS and no computer at home so won;t be on MN much now until after hols. See you there Paddle and sausage...

Thanks for tea and cakes yesterday steppie

Hello all

Enjoy picnic those of you going. We went to Bushy park this morning followed by nice pub lunch, lovely.

Also had a good night out last night withsome friends. Sfx/Bunyan - point noted about not going out after the birth, am making the most of what little soocial life I have left

Mellow thanks for the links. Have your deliveries arrived yet?

Susie - that is awful how HR have treated you

Kew/Paddle/SBS - enjoy Camber

BTW - ended up ordering made to measure blinds as none of the ones sold in Ikea/Argos/JL have any that any that are wide enough for DS window

sj, glad you had a good night out

sausage, paddle & kew, hope you enjoy Camber

Has anyone spotted my moment of glory?

ros are you on the round up? haven't got it yet will check

lovely to see steppie paddle and susie with respective children I think we considerably raised the noise level on the playground hurrah!

steppie lost you inside marks possibly because I choose the slowest till in the world

have nicer hols those going to Camber.

Ros - give us a clue?!

seen it seen it seen it oh well done just like a real mummy

2 out of 3 deliveries turned up. The 3rd delivery was apparently refused by someone called Mary.

I waited till 4.30 before calling up Euroffice to complain.

This driver is really taking the mickey. Last time he claimed that he left a card on his 1st attempt and that no one was home 2nd attempt when I was clearly home both times.

If Euroffice didn't offer the best prices, I wouldn't have bothered.

SJ,
The Space bags are good but I think the Pack mate bags are better but they don't sell medium or large bags, only jumbo and extra large which are okay if you have the space to keep them.

hello all, really great to see you guys earlier. nice playground and great location. dd had a great time. still didn't find cafe so had coffee in Ask!

altho i am in full on packing mode i haven't actually reall considered that we're going on holiday tomorrow LOL. weird!

lists all over the house but have broken the back of it now i think.

susie, really good to meet you. your dd is a cutie. hope the weekend works out okay and stay in touch ok. remember to check out that thread i told you about.

mellow for you!

ros, where? where? i get very cross with the Roundup as i never seem to get it regularly! and i always miss it when one of us is in it!

No round up here yet either!

Those going to camber - have a nice time and say hello to MrsR!

We got "Grrr"ed at by a woman trying to text and walk at the same time on a busy street. She obviously thought that I should have let ds2 run into the path of a coming bicycle instead of hanging on to his collar.... Come to think of it, what is that bicycle doing on the pavement? Grrrr.

it is not in the round up it is on the home page

Thanks paddle. Have fun to all those going to Camber.

Sfx,
I must be super dense since I can't see it on the home page.

Well done, ros!

found it!

fame Ros! don't forget the little people now will you!
