yes..........she also comes (to St.b's) - Sally I think her name is - "dizzy" likes to wear her dressing up costumes to toddler groups.........

Possibly also a woman (can't remember her name - with a son that is the same as the name of a famous clock in London......????

CACHE diploma in childcare and education. Well thats if they'll let me. The college have been very good at providing me with information di know i wont have to pay tuition fee and they will pay for ds to go into childcare as long as its registered. A few things ill havew to pay for. Just thought it would be an idea to find out from jobcentre if they can give me anyhelp as it will help me get back to work in 2 years lol.

where abouts at All Hallows - is it in the church (or do they have a hall that I've never heard about LOL).....and how much?

I think I may have to come along tomorrow with DS3 as this is just too strange and I have to see it to believe it LOL. I could walk up straight after dropping DS2 at nursery.

Yes it takes a lot to get up and work for something that you want! And don't let the job centre bully you into doing something thats not right for you. Look forward to meeting you!

FAQ how will i know its you? I want to just walk straight over and start chatting like we've known each other for years!!!! Sally won't be able to contain the frustration. Last week I attended with DH, Sally had met him before so I did'nt think i needed to introduce him... turns out she was confused as first time they'd met he was straight from work and wearing a suit, but last time in casual clothing. She asked him 'oh are you they're UNCLE', i think meaning uncle with benefits IYSWIM? She nearly died from embarrasment when he replied 'no sally i'm their dad, but is there an uncle i should know about!!!!!
this would get them nicely!

Church hall in cluster of buildings by NSPCC offices, you ring the bell, admission for me and two DC's £1.50.

FAQ · 20/03/2008 00:24

no - i've been really busy had our after school service at church this afternoon....then I've been on here since 8pm........so absolutely NOTHING done in the house at all .

I'm definitely going to have a concerted effort to get it all sorted out though. Discovered today that the church run carboot sales are starting again on the 26th (I think?) of April.......2 people have already offered to come and pick me and the DS's up early in the morning to run me down with my stuff (and table) so I can flog some of it. And I've got LOADS and LOADS of clutter I can get rid of.......it just all needs sorting out and putting together in one place LOL.

Ah bless it takes time, took me a while when xp left and most of the stuff in the old flat was mine but kept finding paperwork of his so i threw it in a black bag and left in the wardrobe just aswell as hes moved in since ive moved out. If they start then it gives you plenty of time to sort things out to sell and can store the rest easier after then. Saying thatt i shouild really put some biuts up the loft lol.

I'll be wearing brown boots, blue jeans, and creamy coloured top/or jacket (if it's cold LOL).

picture of me here (it's an old one, and not a very good one at that - but think I'm still pretty much the same........although DS3 will be somewhat larger than in that photo LOL.

How will I know you????
