Welcome to the crisp shiny new thread! The old one was getting a wee bit stoorie and dog-eared.

Have done my best to list all those from the previous thread, though some may have namechanged since then... hope I've included everyone - apologies to anyone missed.

I started a cold last Monday night... still got phlegm to deal with [fed up]

wanted to go swimming with dd during hols [sigh]

dd1 puked all over science centre yesterday - apologies if you're going and dd3 prescribed on anitbiotics for her chest today

looking like a sterling holiday here too

oh Dizzy [heavy sigh]

you've got your work cut out....eh?

lol, as long as its not bronchilitis - dd2 had that and it was a nightmare

can't believe its only day 1 of the holidays though - feels like we've been off a lot longer

we're on week 2 already...........

no we're a week behind you on this side of the water, lordy help me at this rate!!

would you try essential oils to improve situation?

many are antiviral, and antibacterial, etc

lavender, tea tree and eucalyptus in burners to clear germs from room, aid breathing etc

am already on the case but thank you!

I think am paranoid about all things 'chesty' though as I missed dd2's bronchilitis

I had Bronchiolitis once....

am a bit cautious now as I believe you're likely to be more prone to it once you''ve had it....?

Anyway, as I said, I started LAST Monday and I'm still hackign my guts up

thay told me that I had to watch DD2 as she would be more prone to chesty things having had it as a baby but she would grow out of it by the time she was 2-2.5yrs

she woke herself up coughing at 5.30am and of course this is the first time DD3 has slept through a whole night

hope you're feeling better scarey Klaw!!

hope dd2 is a bit better dizzy xx ds4 has antibiotics now for chest infection and on increased inhaler amounts xx abbie has snotty nose but chest clear so using saline drops....she is miserable though ...poor baby

hee!hee!klaw - didn't even twig that was you....great october name

minipink, that's why the KLAW is in caps! PMSL!

hi all, i keep forgetting about mn local, how is everyone doing?

I am counting the days till the school and nursery starts dd and ds are driving me mad, i thought i would be bored when i had no kids in the morning but i miss it now

this is just our first week of the holidays and am demented already

roll on the weekend, we're off to crieff hydro for a couple of nights

Hi all

Dizzy you lucky dog! How on earth did you swing that? Hope you have a fab time. Not been to CH but I've heard it's fab!

Lol at minipink not recognising Klaw... Hope you recognise me though!

(Ok I'll ease up on the 'fabs' then)

its a bit of a compromise to be honest, that sounds ungrateful and I don't mean it to be

I was supposed to be going home during the holidays but brother and I decided we would go somewhere and stay in the self catering lodge and take the kids, spouses and my dad to try to cheer him up

I have to admit though that the 6hrs free child care swayed me a lot and when divvied up between us all its not a fortune

am hoping for a 'fab' time too

have you done your nightshifts yet? how is the wee man doing on his feet?!

Ooh yes I did a shift on saturday night it was great - I blethered for 12 hours solid! How sad am I at being so excited to be back at work? Was very tired + grumpy on Sunday though after being woken at 12 by the little shit darling across the street kicking a football up against his garage door So I ended up with 3 hours sleep in a 48 hour period...not good!

How is dd3 getting on?

Oh meant to say ds is a bit steadier now! But still got to watch him like a hawk

dd3 seems to be improving thank you, amazing the powers of antibiotics although a little sad that she's had to be introduced to them so soon in life

I cannot believe she is 11wks old already - how did that happen?!?

I had a visit from friend from work today and it all sounds just as horrible as when I was there so really not looking forward to going back, its a long way off though and my numbers might come up

glad you enjoyed it - let me know next time Beckham is in the street and I'll nip round and puncture his ball

That's good to hear. Time is certainly flying in! She'll be onto the BLW before you know it

I heard lots of 'horror stories' from work when I was on ML too, but my first shift back was such a hoot that I am actually looking forward to my next one! It's a funny old life....

OK I am off for an early night I am knackered, nothing new there then...

Hi PPC BPC

I'm getting very exited about a Study Day in Kirkcaldy on Friday!!!

Then there's training for the MSLC

And now I've been told about a seminar on Post Dates in a couple of weeks in Edinburgh

I'm like a kid in a sweet shop and want to do it all!

Still bothered by catarrh, not relishing having to go to gp for ABs, [prays that I get rid soonish]
