mellow2 · 13/04/2007 10:51

I'm much better today. I wouldn't mind joining you at Marble Hill today. What time are you going to be there?

Hi everyone, sorry haven't been on in a while, internet's been down [boo]! And not going to be around after this either as off up to Durham today for a friend's wedding.

Quokka - hope the boxes are ok! Btw, I might be interested in the highchair, have to speak to dh first, and also the toys. Can you put them to one side & I'll let you know next week? If you need to get rid of them now then don't worry.

Sue/Paddle - hope you're feeling better

Ele - it doesn't seem like an April meet is happening

Phew, that's it I think

Eleusis · 13/04/2007 11:15

Oh, I want to meet the fox cub too. Sadly I won't be around on Saturday -- unless womone want to offer me a place where I can sit in peace with my laptop and prepare US tax returns. I bloomin' forgot so have to spend Saturday doing taxes to make the April 15 deadline. Why oh why do I do this every year. Bugger. Bugger. Bugger. I hate tax time!! DH said he would look after the kids but won't be leaving the house. And that means I'll have to look after them unless I leave the house.

foxcub · 13/04/2007 11:23

mellow - aiming for 12.30ish - wanna text me when you get there? I need to find my friend there too. Anyone else wanna join us, you could text me.

I am really aiming to get out side today....!!!!!

2Cute · 13/04/2007 11:30

Don't envy you Ele! I hate bloody tax returns...Hope you still get to enjoy the sun.

Haven't been on for a while as good old DS pased on his vomitting bug to me....lovely I tell ya! We're all recovered now (i hope..) My dad very kindly stated, "despite all that vomitting and D, you haven't lost any weight" Cheers dad!

Hope everyone's been well. How's the packing going Quokka?

Have I missed anything big?

foxcub · 13/04/2007 11:35

2cute LOL!!

We're around tomorrow and have no plans yet for next week so you and I must meet!!!

suejonez · 13/04/2007 12:38

hi - we're around this afetrnoon when Ds wakes up but probably a bit late for you Foxie. Noticed a play group in Chiswick house grounds today with nice little outdoor area £3 per child open 10-3 anyone fancy it next Friday for a change.

bunyanvillas · 13/04/2007 15:36

Afternoon All! Well, we are still HERE. DH was not well enough to travel. So ... having phoned the airline, the hotel - and the bride (felt terrible telling her we weren't coming!) - I dropped dd off at nursery, thought sod it won't go into work will pop to Kingston and run a few errands - and then pick up dd early. Except someone crashed into me in Kingston Luckily we were both fine - it was the car that took the brunt of it - but flippin' heck - what a Friday 13th! Have decided to stay in (for a change lol) tonight and have an emergency bottle of wine. Hope the Marble Hill peeeps enjoyed a nice picnic today?

DD and I are around Mon AND Tues - does anyone fancy meeting up?

2Cute · 13/04/2007 17:19

OMG Bunyan! Did he/she go into the back of you? Glad you're both ok.

The park was lovely. It was great catching up with you Foxi and Mellow and seeing your lovely DC. Monti is such a cutie! Thanks for DS's pressie Foxi. I had to sprint back to the car for fear of getting a ticket, didn't realise how long it would take!

mellow2 · 13/04/2007 17:54

The park was lovely. Monti is adorable. 2cute I have your throw. I'll return it when we meet up next.

Sorry that you're having such an awful beginning to the weekend, bunyan.

OP posts:
MrsBigD · 13/04/2007 17:58

Bunyan sorry to hear about cancelled travel plans.

Haven't been following the thread much I have to admit Too much going on during 1/2 term.

BTW have emailed those whose emails addis I could find re our housewarming party... new date is Saturday 5 May 13:00 Hope some of you can make it

bunyanvillas · 13/04/2007 18:07

Yes, she went straight into the back of me - said she didn't see me - anyway, over the shock now, it's just one of those days! Sounds as though you guys had a lovely time at the park - I love Marble Hill, it's FAB

xoxo · 13/04/2007 18:32

bunyan: at Friday 13th.

best you sit down with nice wine and let it all wash over you.
at missing park today - very but managed to get outside with work tday for a few hours.

hope everyone has a fab weekend. we are around next Monday - Wed if anyone is free and up for a meet up. especially if it involves cakes

foxcub · 13/04/2007 19:57

I am around all next week as kids are still off school

Mellow and 2cute it was lovely to see you both.

2 cute and you lot thanx for the fab pressie - I will deffo treat myself to one of those aboriginal autsralian massages with the voucher - its so kind of you - you must have foreseen by bad back! ooh I can't wait

mellow thanx for your support - sore nip now due to that crappo latch but Monti is fed and happy

consider this: apparently Bfing uses 500 calories a day and a bar of green & blacks chocolate is 5252 calories - I reckon I deserve that chocolate eh?

bunyan that is so pants about your car - how horrible you poor thing

Oxo sorry we missed you today (BTW Montpelier Row is residents only now)

well Monti has been registered now and his middle name is Fintan (Irish saint) so he officially exists

we're around tomorrow if anyone is up for grabs - Paddle - Sue - anyone else not doing ghastly "couply" things?

foxcub · 13/04/2007 19:58

525 calories!
