Thought I would start a new thread as the old one is getting full.

Next meet up is on Wednesday 10th April, 10ish at the Durham Botanical Gardens. We will either be in the entrance or staking a couple of the picnic tables by the pond.
I will be giving Vikinglady a lift.

Oh no Viking, hope you're better soon

ArrowofApollo · 11/04/2013 15:22

Viking, sorry to hear you have been poorly!
We're all okay, and if it is a D&V bug I guess we will know if we have it fairly soon? I hope so as we went swimming this morning.

They're usually pretty quick, aren't they? I am currently in a brief vertical phase - spent most of this afternoon napping on the floor with no top on so V could help herself.....

VikingLady · 11/04/2013 18:40

Indith thank you for the baby clothes - the boots are fab!

spiffysquiffyspiggy · 11/04/2013 21:22

Hope you and j are feeling better Viking. Looks like it is something going round work- a few people looking dodgy today.

ArrowofApollo · 12/04/2013 07:52

Funniliy enough there was a discussion on the MID FB group about D&V going around Durham!

Ds2 is a contrary little thing. can't think where he gets that from every day without fail he wakes up at 6.30 ish demanding boob. Today as I am leaving for my first overnight stay for 2 years, he sleeps in Hmm so I have to leave without one last feed. He won't be bothered but I am! I got that job I went for, it's my first day and I feel like I'm starting off on the back foot.

(Viking, I don't think it's been announced officially yet so ask J not to say owt, although I suspect a few people have guessed already)

spiffysquiffyspiggy · 16/04/2013 08:33

Still at least the little blighter will be pleased to see my boobs me when I get back. Grin

Indith · 16/04/2013 17:42

hope you've had a good day, enjoy your night even the bed size isn't up to much!

spiffysquiffyspiggy · 16/04/2013 17:55

Off to the pub in a couple of mins with my little pal from Glasgow Grin . I could get used to this...

Well done! Is it at the same company?

spiffysquiffyspiggy · 16/04/2013 23:06

Might have got carried away. There's not much point in saving alcohol filled bm is there?

it's the same organisation, just a 3 month temporary promotion. I get to come back to London next week and go out againGrin luckily they couldn't pick between me and my friend who I thought would get the job so offered us a job share. Which is good cos he actually knows what the hell we're meant to be doing. Grin

VikingLady · 17/04/2013 08:21

Congratulations! J has been told not to gossip about it.

VikingLady · 22/04/2013 07:57

Ischel Thanks for those links - I sent them on. She's in labour now but I don't know which hospital!

juneybean · 22/04/2013 11:28

VikingLady · 23/04/2013 16:16

juneybean · 23/04/2013 16:34

One of my lecturers keeps mentioning Mumsnet. She is rather mumsnetter ish. She told us to read Ina May Gaskin the first time we met her. She is very lovely if a teeeny bit scary.
