Probably not going till end next week now ( long story will fill you in tomorrow)

foxinbubblesletsmaketrouble · 18/10/2006 13:19

Right, who is coming in my car then, apart from MrsD??

Quoks - realise you're a maybe at the mo - why don;t you let us know tomorrow how you feel?

MrsBeDreadingTrickOrTreat · 18/10/2006 14:06

place cards are ready

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary · 18/10/2006 14:18

Quokka, had the same thing myself all week. dr said it was a virus but couldn't take anything but paracetemol.

suggest you get codiene/paracetemol from pharmacy and some strepsil and gargle with aspirin. it;s taken about 3 days to go thru my system.

SJ, I have a load of outgrown babygro/vest/allinone type stuff too which i'd be happy to donate. Understand you're on a limit tho.

Maybe we could all contribute to a care parcel and split the cost of sending it as a West London MumsNet donation to show our support for SJ and the orphanage?

DH just asked if he could go play poker tomorrow night. Once I got up off the floor and changed my pants I realised I now have irrefutable evidence that he DOES NOT LISTEN TO A WORD I SAY!

foxinbubblesletsmaketrouble · 18/10/2006 14:32

Where's Nanoowhoowhhoo?

Nanou1 · 18/10/2006 14:36

Hi guys. sorry been busy at work and feeling very very low hence not participating since i have nothing funny or interesting to say.... bubble is about to burst but i won't bore you... good idea re sharing cost for shipping because i still have not had time to sort things out my end re bits for Sue. re tomorrow night I am in 2 minds about coming but hopefully i will have cheered up by then. if i feel that i am not going to be a bore i'll ask foxie if there is room in her taxi and meet with her at ealing broadway. Pls don't take it the wrong way if i don't show up tomorrow, i just want to hide and cry at the mo... and i am so useless that i dont even know how to change my bloody name on here. it will pass but i wouldn't min a cyberhug in the meantime...

MrsBeDreadingTrickOrTreat · 18/10/2006 14:38

HUGE CYBERHUG FOR NANOU1

Nanou1 sorry to hear you're in the dumps. Please do come tomorrow I'm sure we'll manage to cheer you up. I can offer 'bitching about work' and 'bitching about dh' sessions if that's any help?

2Cute · 18/10/2006 14:39

Told ya whizzie...emotional disorder!

Poor Quokka...I second the advice to take codeine/paracetamol combinations, solphadeine is fab (take the soluble one as it works much quicker).

2Cute · 18/10/2006 14:47

Nanou - sorry you're down. I'm sure a night out is just the remedy you need, I'm counting on it myself! We could all have a (much needed) therapy session and laugh at the same time so come on....ooh, most important of all, there'll be dessert.

unhallowed · 18/10/2006 14:50

Nanou1--sorry you're down in the dumps. GIANT {{{{HUG}}}}

Boowila · 18/10/2006 14:51

Oh no nanou1. What's wrong???? E-mail me if you don't want to post on the net. We can't be having a depressed WestLondonite so you better come and we promise to cheer you up. If you don't come we'll all be sad cause there will be noone to discuss brow gin and YELLOW lemons with.

Please please please please please.....

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary · 18/10/2006 14:58

Nanoooooo! gotta tele-conf so am sending super huge but very quick cyber hug.

please come tomorrow, i am going to subscribe to both of MrsBe's sessions as my life is a bit of a car crash at present too.

big big hugs

sfxmum · 18/10/2006 15:04

sorry you are feeling low nanou,please come tomorrow if feel up to it. not much of an incentive but i would like to meet you too. am counting on this meet being a big and all embracing one

Boowila · 18/10/2006 15:25

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary, who the heck are you?

I wonder if when Christmas roles around we could choose festive names which resemble our real MN names?????

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary · 18/10/2006 15:34

oops i'll try that again tommee tippee drinking cup

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary · 18/10/2006 15:36

argh! i cross threaded again!

Boowilla, sorry I'm confusing you!

I'll give you the same clue I gave Oxo "devil in disguise carrying a bit of wood"

back to post my Tomee Tippee Link on the other thread now!

Boowila · 18/10/2006 15:45

Tommeetippee are not playtex. no competition. It's the screw top seal and the easy wash valve that actually stops the liquid from spilling when not being sucked that sells them for me. The insulation is just a bonus.

FiziWhiziLetsGetScary · 18/10/2006 15:49

possible a little competition in that tommee tippee can be got in Tesco?! lol

actually the one i've got isn't insulated. the straw works like a camelbak valve so there's no spill when not being sucked either.

each to their own tho.........

actually, that reminds me i've a so called "magic" cup that's hardly been used that I could put in the care package for SJ.

Nanou1 · 18/10/2006 15:58

Hi guys. thanks so much for your cyber hugs and kind words. you did cheer me up... bowila/mrs sent you an email but somehow it has disappeared from my system in the process.... and no time to write another one... did you get it?

Boowila · 18/10/2006 16:00

No, didn't get it.

Boowila · 18/10/2006 16:02

Ah yes, but she's headed to New York. So she can have the better one.

I still don't know who you are, but I think Paddlechicks is a good guess.

MrsBeDreadingTrickOrTreat · 18/10/2006 16:17

nope Nanou1 no email came through. I'll bleep you and you can respond

scarysuejonez · 18/10/2006 17:09

Nanou you can't be more grumpy than me at the moment - we can have a grumpy corner and say "pah!" a lot. Don't leave me on my own with the cheerful people

foxinbubblesletsmaketrouble · 18/10/2006 17:33

Nanoowhoowhhooo hey you must come - I'll come and get you from your house if you feel demotivated You can text the address to 07779-289-041. No point CATing me as I'll be at work away from my e-mail and sometimes the cats don't come through.

I'm miserable as sin too - if anyone saw my rant on another thread last night, you'll realise how very pissed off I am at the moment...and I told another driver to feck off this morning, when he was only trying to advise me the road ahead was closed to traffic

You me and Sue can be in the miserable Cow corner.

I hate the world, I hate the world, I hate the world

Pleeeze come tomorrow

scarysuejonez · 18/10/2006 17:46

haven't seem your grumpy thread Foxie - how very dare he speak to you, when you are not in "being spoken to" mode
