Hi everyone

I am 27 with a 20 month old son - I live in Barnstaple, North Devon.

This is the first time I've been to this site & it would be great to hear from anyone who lives near me...

NIkki I cant find the plymoutb thread. I cant find any threads I am looking for. Been away for a bit and they all disappeared and I ant find them ARRGH!

I missed the devon meetup, did you go?

How you doing?!

PavlovtheCat · 29/07/2007 21:53

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 29/07/2007 21:57

Devon meet up??? Fingle bridge?? Oh feck!

Doing good thanks - back at work 2.5days a week - how hard is it??!!

What sort of shoes are you after? White or....

PavlovtheCat · 29/07/2007 22:00

Cream/ivory. I looked on ebay but either really really high or bit mucky!

I am sure it was recently, even might have been this weekend. I heard about it but could not find the thread. I am so not good at thread finding/keeping! The only ones I am any good are the bar, tea room and my post natal group, even then I am rubbish!

I am back at work too, 3.5 days a week. Been on phased return, then this week coming full hours. Its horrid isnt it? . Would much rather be at home gooing and gaaing!

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 29/07/2007 22:03

I like doing something different to mummyhood but its a mad rush! Work are very target orientated now, everything logged etc so its full on from when I get in to when I leave.....did originally want two days but had to do 2.5 or wouldn't have been able to jobshare! Am hanging 24/7...mind you, I shouldn't really be on here should I, should be tucked up in bed!!

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 29/07/2007 22:07

I just popped onto Ebay - saw a lovely pair of satin cream choos - looked in good condition too! Strappy types and pointed at front...can't do link as am blonde! lol!

PavlovtheCat · 29/07/2007 22:08

me too. I am working 8-6 tomorrow, tuesday, 8-12:30pm wed and 8-5:30 on thurs . Got to get my clothes ready.

DP's job is like that, they tried to give him a discipline a while ago for being 'late' too many times, because he clocked into work at 7am! Paid no attention to him leaving at 2:35 instead of 2:30pm though! So he added up all the 2 mins late, 1 min late, and the getting in 2 mins early, leaving 10 mins late, and they owed him 1 hour once he minused them! He has to get in 10 mins early now just to shut em up. Crap.

PavlovtheCat · 29/07/2007 22:09

Oh are there. I stopped looking a couple of weeks ago as I got fed up.

PavlovtheCat · 29/07/2007 22:14

[sobs]
I love them. They are too big . I want them [cries uncontrollably].

I also love the ones that are £220. Of course I do.

Its probably better I dont get them. I am getting married in a cave afterall, with a garden reception, probably need something a bit flatter than jimmy choos!!!

mrsmopp · 30/07/2007 12:52

hope everyone enjoying this lovely weather although its only going to last a couple of days .im at home doing the housework before i go to work tonight while my hubby has taken my little girl to see granny for afternoon im certainly missing out.women get all the fun jobs.hope everyones enjoying their day

CrookshanksinJimmyChoos · 30/07/2007 19:57

Had to dash off last night as DS was screeching in his cot!

Glad you approved of my choice...they are yummy aren't they! Thing is, a cave will be quite dim so perhaps not the best place to showcase a pair of Choos.......hmm...trying to think....I know this sounds rather tack but BHS actually do a good range of cheap wedding shoes that look very good....its worth going for something flattish actually...when my sis got married, she wanted a certain type of shoe for the bridesmaids (i.e moi!) and I said ooh thats too high, if I match it really close, can I get a flatter pair, she agreed.

On the day, I was waltzing around pain free while the other bridesmaids were rubbing their feet!!

sighkotika · 31/07/2007 23:21
