The Spring Chat part 2

[sfxmum]

new thread keep on chatting

SFX/Tilly well done on completing the run

Still haven't sponsored yet - sorry a lot going on here with end of term stuff, various paperwork and birthday parties

Vbus is someone coming to visit me?

Have posted birthday picnic invitation on FB

near the park in Acton (camel replacement service)

Morning!

Not even 8 o'clock and breakfast all done! What should we do now?

Kew - ah Acton the well-known camel centre of the world.

Does anyone remember the advert where a man queues outside a bank with a camel and dialogue goes:
lovely lady: sir are you with the camel?
man with camel: No I'm with the woolich.

Beats Howard and the halifax any day.

Auntie - yes I'm sending guests your way in case you weren't busy enough!

Kew - camel probably a good mode of transport in this heat

Also feeling dreadfully organised, got to preschool early, have cooked a lamb curry (will be DS2 1st curry experience!), off to Cheeky monkeys soon if anyone wants to join, then have to take DS1 for an x-ray this afternoon , then plumber coming at 5pm

Slng - going to try and have a quiet thurs pm as today and tom are so busy. Will let you know if I change my mind

Hope everyone staying cool in this heat

good morning all

slng that is funny can't remember advert

vbus how was the vaccine? X-ray now? the fun never stops
about aunt at weekends my sister is at home it is just keeping an eye in this heat she is a tad forgetful and has some health issues

too hot to run at the usual time, think I shall have to set alarm tomorrow, anyway went shopping instead after taking dd to nursery
she had 3 changes of outfit this morning
because it was not 'funky enough'

just thought I could post this here

I have 3 pairs of Gap linen and linen mix trousers uk size 14 to give away if anyone is interested
good condition summer neutral colours

We're sitting here melting, both boys are a bit grumpy & I'm toying with taking the pair of them swimming to cool off, am I mad?

Sfx, lol @ minisfx, she obviously gets it from you . Trousers sound lovely, wish I could fit into a 14!

vbus, hope everything is ok with the xray

slng, we'll probably be around Thurs pm.

Sfx - vaccine was fine, DS so au fait with medical establishments, we seem to be in and out of them all the time (only to be surpassed by KC )

Auntie - couldn't see invite

Tilly - good luck with swim, might do that tom with DS2, not brave enough to take both on my own!

vbus, I'm not sure if I'm brave enough yet! But I figure ds2 will be in his floating seat, ds1 will have his armbands on & is happy swimming around without me holding him, & ds1 can pretty much dry & dress himself afterwards. Of course, that's my plan but it may all go horribly wrong!

Yes, that's the theory, hope it goes well
Right, better head out to hospital now or we'll be late

I probably should take dd swimming pools, in the park outdoor swimming is great but don't fancy taking her is full heat maybe if weather is ok on Friday and we can go in the morning

slng we should be around thu pm but depends on how dd feels like after nursery

tilly trousers are wide leg loose cut slightly lowish waist

looking forward to Kew swing next Wednesday I hope it is a nice warm and dry evening, then Latitude am so excited

sfx, indoor pools at Richmond are closing over the summer so outdoor pools are probably going to be packed

tilly yes it was closed last time we went

dd is in bed singing the chorus of RAM 'Killing in the name of' teen babysitters hey!

....and now you do what they told ya and now you do what they told ya.....

LOL at minisfx, I love that song

sfx, hope its the radio edit version she was singing

seems to be sticking to PG lyrics she is such a headbanger keep asking me to show her the video on youtube

Good morning!

Another warm day. DS2 was awake from 12 to 2 last night and has the nerve this morning to complain that he was tired. Suffice to say he did not get any sympathy from any of us ...

Morning

It is tough for the LO's sleeping in this heat, although it did briefly rain last night. DS1 has been mostly sleeping through but is mega thristy when he wakes up. DS2 has now decide to drink milk again but only at nighttime it would apprear

Will take DS2 swimming soon.

Tilly - did you venture to the pool with both of them in the end?

Sfx - DS1 seems to quite like Snow Patrol atm, much more mellow!

good morning

happy to report that for once, everyone slept well here
dd off to nursery after just one change of outfit and I am trying to be interested in accounting as part of course
rather be running or almost anything else really

Afternoon

I was wondering if anyone had heard of any courses being run for teenagers over the holidays in July? I have trawled the internet and am needing stuff for my 13yo girl and 15yo boy charges to do. Sewing, Dance, Golf, Sailing etc.. So many things are only on in July.
Thanks heaps
Lou

hi Lou can't really help but afaik Sheen sports centre run summer classes on a range of sporting activities

regarding rashes dd started with a rash on her tummy yesterday just a few spots but today seems to be all over her back and tummy, she shows no other symptoms to get me worried should I just assume it is due to heat?

apparently not itchy I thought it would be heat rash and that is normally itchy isn't it?

sfx, I thought heat rash wasn't itchy? I'm sure that's the most likely explanation though. Good job on the sleep. Ds's are sleeping fine, its getting to sleep that's the problem!

vbus, I did take them both swimming in the end, it was fine!

Lou, sorry I don't know. I guess you've tried the local authority websites?

Seems to be very quiet on here lately?!

tilly we have the same problem on getting to sleep but that is to be expected

well done on swimming

having a sort of Korma for dinner smells lovely just waiting for dh
