Congratulations! :)

3 is a very lovely number, and you have that lovely house to fill. Plus you have a boy and a girl thus all genders are covered for hand me downs.

Does this mean I need to get pg asap? Our dcs are going to be lopsided Grin You think dh would go for it?

For Tuesday somewhere I can fall asleep would be good! I get back into Durham from Madrid at around midnight at the earliest providing I make the train I'm booked on then have to get up to take dh to the station and ds to nursery. Suppose I have to pay for my child free weekend somehow!

StealthPolarBear · 07/09/2010 15:42

OUCH
get lots of sleep while you are away to mkae up for it :)

EasilyConfusedIndith · 07/09/2010 16:09

I'm told I am allowed to have uninterrupted sleep and sleep ins but that we are staying out after 10pm one night and drinking gin Grin

SPB do you happen to have a small suitcase/pull along that would be hand luggage sized? Dh's is a couple of cms too big and Ryanair are evil on size. My next alternative is the rucksack he takes rowing and keeps his smelly lycra festing for weeks on end in Envy

StealthPolarBear · 07/09/2010 16:11

Staying out after 10pm Shock is that allowed??
No, not really, I have often thought we are not good on luggage in this house :o I do hvae sports bags though that are non stinky, and a slightly-smaller-than-sportsbag sized bag. I tend to use one or more of those. You're welcome to have a look, see if any of them will do

stickylittlefingers · 07/09/2010 18:02

Congratulations Spiggy!

Not jealous at all

I'm doing the GNR weekend after next, so please send all your anti rain vibes and do all your anti rain dances and anything else you can think of.... I was out in that horrible rain this morning (1) running and later (2) walking to work, and have decided I have a cat's attitude where the wet stuff's concerned.

EasilyConfusedIndith · 08/09/2010 21:43

Sticky! Good to see you :) Wow to the GNR, I shall hope for clear skys for you.

KaraStarbuckThrace · 09/09/2010 07:12

Anyone for a cakey meetup next week?

Yess, mornings looking better for me, I might even have a charge with me Shock ...only a temporary one though but better than nothing!!

OP posts:
KaraStarbuckThrace · 09/09/2010 12:45

I can do Monday, Wednesday or Friday morning of next week. I will have DS so it may be quick cuppa and cake and then a walk down by the river.

StealthPolarBear · 09/09/2010 12:51

orrr
if anyone's about on the 21st I ahve the day off?

StealthPolarBear · 09/09/2010 12:52

Sorry that was cheeky - didn't mean it to come out like that! I just meant if anyone is around on the 21st and fancies meeting for cake, let me know

EasilyConfusedIndith · 09/09/2010 13:10

The 22nd is my birhtday so the 21st seems like a good time for early birthday cake Grin

I can do any morning except Monday next week, finances permitting.

StealthPolarBear · 09/09/2010 13:36

Ooh definitely - shall we do something then? even if it's just playground if no one else is interested?

EasilyConfusedIndith · 09/09/2010 17:38

Yes we will do something. And if it my birthday coming up then A's must be too! A whole year old :)

KaraStarbuckThrace · 09/09/2010 18:20

I can't do the 21st :( It's a Tuesday so I'll be working.

spiggy · 09/09/2010 21:30

21st good for me.

Indith I think it is necessary for you to have another baby as otherwise our families won't match anymore. I'm sure your DH will see the need to maintain the pattern Grin Or you could stick to trips away, lie ins and gin soaked nights Envy.

EasilyConfusedIndith · 10/09/2010 13:26
Grin

What do you want to do this Tues Spiggy? I'm off this afternoon, will FB you my mobile. I shall need to to prop me up and keep me awake after the trip home.

Yay for birthday cake on the 21st.

Hope we manage to sort out some cake for next week too. Not that I like cake or anything.

LeggyBlondeNE · 10/09/2010 20:49

I'm up for cake any morning except Monday or Wednesday (reigserting baby and health visitor respectively). Am in need of calories and comfort food as wee T's weight is frustratingly precarious.

I'm very intrigued by the namme Shock T... you say lol

Are we planning for next week or the week after?

OP posts:
KaraStarbuckThrace · 13/09/2010 14:36

Unless the weather like today (i.e. sh!t), does anyone want to meet me at Cafe Continental on Friday morning, say 10:30ish?
