I know we've not officially finished the last one, but I wanted to get the link in before we ran out of room!

Everyone welcome - the aim of this thread is to generally chat about church life, or just gossip in general!
You don't have to be a regular church-goer, nor do you have to know what we're going on about!
It's not about debate, it's just about chatting
:)

hello all Smile

glad to have a fairly quiet week after NW. DD is at theatre school all week so is peaceful during the school day. DS and DD still manage to wind each other up the minute she gets home though!

off to my Ps tonight, DC are having a holiday with them and we will be at home but without the need for sitters in the evenings!

praying for you MHD, I am a real settler and dislike change, so I feel for you!

oops sorry, Mary, thought I was on facebook! Grin oh well the cats out the bag! hahahahahahahaha

ZipadiSoozi · 12/08/2011 17:29

I'm fine thank you madhairday, twins ok, ds1 ok dh ok! so everything ok! and you?????

MaryBS · 12/08/2011 17:32

:o yes its my birthday, for my sins... kids have been killing each other all day, which doesn't bode well for tomorrows meetup...

On the plus side, I got a "prize" delivered today, a St Ignatius windup toy. Has to be seen to be believed!

And of course, not forgetting that I will be test driving a hasbro game and will be given both game and video camera to do so :)

Finally, due to the ins and outs of Tesco wine deals, I got 6 bottles of wine for £18, when they are usually £7.79 each :o

DutchOma · 12/08/2011 18:40

You'll have to bring it. And bring something for the kids to do. I've got a 500 piece jigsaw and a puzzle toy, but nothing much else for older children.

MaryBS · 12/08/2011 18:46

Hmm...

ZipadiSoozi · 12/08/2011 19:20

Bet you've drunk it already Mary! Confused

MaryBS · 13/08/2011 07:52

No Sooz, can't quite manage that many, I'd struggle to drink 1 in a sitting!

We had the most amazing meal out last night, I could eat most of what was on the menu (they highlighted those I couldn't). And they even made me some gluten free bread!

madhairday · 13/08/2011 09:34

Have fun all you meeter uppers today - so jealous! Will be with you in spirit Grin

DC off to the parents today, so another ending, they are subdued but excited too.

Feel like we're on top of stuff, even though it seems like chaos.

nickelbabe · 13/08/2011 11:33

(i should have known that anyway- Mary's on my FB too! Blush )

anyway, after spending the whole of yesterday thinking it was the 11th, I realised this morning as I was preparing my sister's birthday pressie, that it was the 12th, so I missed sending her a text on her birthday, and she shares your birthday Mary! Shock
I was always planning to send her pressie today, because she was on holiday last week, and I didn't want it to be sent to the depot (because round there, the depot is on some random inaccessible industrial estate. Hmm ).
so I had to quickly text her this morning saying sorry I don't know what date it is!

ooh, test driving stuff, eh! I'd love to do that. :)

enjoy the meetup today, everyone.
think of me at work (so far not working hard because I've only had one customer so far!)

Goodbye for now everyone - moving tomorrow. No broadband for couple of weeks due to disorganisation. Feeling very sad and very excited. Will be thinking of you all, be good now Grin

nickelbabe · 15/08/2011 11:57
Shock

do you not have internet access on your phone???

how will you cope without MN for weeks? Shock

Wink

enjoy the move - plenty of rests and cups of tea, and make sure you pack everything you need immediately (change of clothes, bog roll toothbrushes, kettle and mashings for tea) in a box marked "URGENT" Grin

Hello all Smile

any ideas for good commentaries or notes on Romans? We're studying it at CBS Bible study this year and I'm supposed to be heading it up - need to do my homework while I have a bit of child free time (thanks Mum and Dad!)

MaryBS · 15/08/2011 19:58

William Barclay's commentaries are excellent. I can also let you have my notes on Romans while I was studying, if you like? :)

PandaG · 15/08/2011 22:00

oh yes please Mary - thanks!

ZipadiSoozi · 17/08/2011 21:42

Pands - How is your 'Roman' studying going
