New thread as the old one has run out of room.

hi everyone
sue - have just answered your email. sorry for delay, but a tad hectic...

working bit of a struggle today as went out last night and had 4 glasses of wine...which is 3 over my limitations these days...

foxie - know what you mean about over-committing yourself.. we're the classic gals who just can't say no....snigger

girls who can't say no...

I panic about having nothing to do so fill up my diary - then panic cos my diary is too chocca - but hey we all do that don't we,

can't believe I walked home from the school in charge of five kids today 92 were DS1's mates)!!! and fed them all and fed Monti too...things must be improving...

(were Ds1 mates) not "92 were his mates"

he's a popular lad your boy foxie!

you're going to be a candidate for supermum at this rate y'know!

you're welcome mellow, we'll squeeze everyone in somehow!

sfx are you still doing mile for Maude on 12th My 11am if so does your DD want a pink balloon?

hi this is all very restricted with no reliable internet conection
so much of my life is conducted online

sue - i still hope to do it and dd loves ballons so yes please.

nanou - good luck with job

foxie will make a date let me know when your diary has an opening

hope you are all ok

mmmmmmmmm popcorn

feel sick now..........

Who was I chatting to when they said they could teach me how to use a sewing machine? Have a feeling it was either MrsR or COV?

Me!

Thought so! Would you mind coming round one time to show me?

No problems - how about Thursday next week?

Wot's a sewing machine?

I thought clothes were those disposable things we buy, made by 4 year old Bolivian children, paid 1p a month?

my dh wishes they were - we have about 5 sewing machines littered around the house. How you doing foxie? Had a lovely time yesterday thanks.

Still noty dressed yet MrsR - being a bad mother as usual

Hope that yummy mummy doesn't ring and say she wants to visit as the house is a pit and my hair is full of rats (well, almost...)

It was really nice to see you and DS yesterday - our boys are brill aren't they? Enjoy the sun today.

I'm planning to stick the Dc's in the paddling pool.

BTW Quokka - that bath seat really is the best thing ever - DS2 loves it so much

anybody fancy Kingston Green Fair on May 28th Bank Holiday?

just realised (as I hoovered up, into my mouth of course) the strawbs I bought for dd this morning are organic and delicious.

she of course didn't eat any but that may be due to her stuffing rice cakes all round tesco!

anyways, i normally don't buy the organic strawbs/grapes etc as they're too expensive.

but they're half price and that's why i grabbed them....

Paddle - and everyone else.

We have been going to the Kingston Green fair for over 20 years - it is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

A bit hippy, but brilliant. It ceased a couple of years ago as H&S requirements were tightened and it got to hard for the organisers to get the license, but I am SOOO glad its back on again - its great!!

lots of stalls and stuff for kids during the day, lots of crusties and music after 6pm. Lots of soft drug aromas all day!!!

seriously it is a good day out

OK 20 years, not Over 20 years. I used to sell fossils at it when it started

oooh I can't wait until Kingston Green Fair!

WTF is everyone???

well if you won't chat, I'm off to feed DS2...[trots off in utter disgust]...

i know foxie, it's blardy rude eh!

thanks for this arvo, really enjoyed the grown up chat.

maybe see ya tomorrow at Chiswick House?

okay dd has now been asleep for 12 hours and 20 minutes.

at what point should i go and wake her?

this is unheard of! and i got up at 6:50am in order to sneak a shower.

i could've blimmin stayed in bed another hour at this rate!

she is breathing - i crept in and checked her 20mins ago.

and now, of course, i'm worrying that she's not well.

can't win eh!

Isn't it great when they sleep really well? There has been occasions when dd has managed slept till 9 am when she went to bed at 7.30 pm.
