Oo oo oo, Northern meet up you say? I'm up for a bit of that! When and where? I hear CC has a lovely new conservatory

Missed you all ladies, not been able to get on mn for last few days. Tried the other night but when I clicked on the thread it just wouldn't load .

Loving Sweet Pea Designs, you really are a crafty lot!

How excited am I that Robbie is back with Take That?! I so have to see them in concert (again)!

CaptainCaveman · 16/07/2010 21:58

Or we could come to you hotpot, name the date then!!!

Hi right back atcha TS

Cece we could do both

TwilightSurfer · 16/07/2010 22:48

i'm in a royally pissed off mood and involved in self prescribed iPod therapy. if this were me drunk i'd be going, "I LURV YOU GUYS!" by now. iPod therapy lacks the day after issues....unless it leads to drinking which i hope not.

no1 you sound amazingly happy. you deserve it!

no1putsbabyinthecorner · 16/07/2010 23:20

ts sorry to hear you are so pissed off, what is wrong?

cyteen rebound shag, I wish. It seems he is a gentleman!

cc yay for meetup

Just got back in after a lovely evening.
ts I am amazingly happy at the moment, and loving it, because I cannot remember the last time I grinned like I am at the moment.

TwilightSurfer · 16/07/2010 23:56

No1 you're in at a respectable hour.

just sil bullshit.

R has fallen in love with Buzz Lightyear. She talks about him all the time. It is the funniest thing you've ever heard.

OP posts:
no1putsbabyinthecorner · 17/07/2010 06:55

ts I hope you are feeling better.
re the respectable hour, I have to be home to time it right for when M wakes up, as he usually!

Either that or mum texts to say he is awake, so I run up the hill.

M also has a thing for buzz too, he gets very excited when ever he sees him. I was tempted to get him one for his birthday, but wondered if maybe he was still too young.
He has played with my nephews, but did throw it a couple of times, and it grates on me that the plastic toys are so overpriced and it would be ruined in no time. (or am I just being tight)
Im all for it being worth every penny if lasts longer tha a week.

Good morning to everyone, dcs are both snoring at the side of me, and I am wide awake. Probably won't get chance to get on when they wake, as they are too full on to let me get away with it now.
Hope everyone has a lovely day.

luckoftheirish · 17/07/2010 07:13

MOrning gang

no1 I am excited for you at the sounds of your new gentleman friend. WOW, can't beat that loved up feeling

TS hope you are feeling brighter today? You could always make an effigy of SIL?

VG glad eldestvgboy had a good day! Good luck with the cake.

loti how's your health atm? Are you in Brum? (just checking out potential meetup spots )

6 40 wake up here from O, ds1 managed to sleep in til 9!!. Bright and breezy weather today. Am getting my hair done later - I might get her to dye round my bald spot, and grow a 'fashionable' (ahem) mallen streak!

MrsMiamla · 17/07/2010 10:35

morning all
sorry i've been awol, been busy sewing!

have skim read and seen your wonderful news No1!! i'm so pleased for you, C and M!!!!

Righty oh... i'm on to seek assistance... what do you think of the name

S t i t c h n S m i l e s

I've put the spaces in so if i do end up using it, google won't reveal this page to my potential customers!

You may notice a resemblance to another new brand on the market at the moment! it may well have alot to do with us having the same advisors!!

luckoftheirish · 17/07/2010 10:45

LOVE IT MRS M!!!!

MrsMiamla · 17/07/2010 11:41

thanks loti

oopsandbabycoconuts · 17/07/2010 11:46

Morning

DD1 has what I think is the start of an ear infection aqs apparently there is something fluttering in her ear making it 'tickly sore' and buzzing. No sleep last night, wait I lie 2.5 hours and shewent off as I had to get up for work. Toaday is brownies, vanilla cakes with dark choc icing, sausage roll andf flapjacks along withthe regular stuff.

will catch up when my sister takes over and I have slept.

MrsMiamla · 17/07/2010 12:10

hmm, obviously something going round. DS is poorly at the moment too. Wish he had the words to tell me what's wrong. He kept just hitting his head but me holding his head tight until he fell asleep seems to have helped

oops hope DD1 better soon and that you get the sleep you deserve

TwilightSurfer · 17/07/2010 13:39

Miamla I really like the business name. Good thinking on hiding it from Google. I need to be more keen on that. How is Pea today? Any closer on a name??

VG you do have the most lovely family outings. I want to take a chapter from your book. I also wish I had one child 12 years ago to go with the two I have now. That is one thing in retrospect I wish I'd done a bit differently. I tried but then scared myself thinking we weren't ready. Oh well, past is past.

Captain I am going to do something even better. I will be deleting DB from my FB list. That will keep me a little further away from the drama and he did admit she used his page more than he did. Not sure why I bother really. Do share a picture of your new hairdo. I'd like a little stylish inspiration.

Hi Lucky.

Hi Oops.

Hi everyone else lurking.

No1 You have made my day with your post! So good to hear Brand No1 is out of the box and running well. Also why not ask on your local Freecycle if anyone has any unwanted Buzz stuff.

Miamla Sorry to be voice of dissent but new biz name not my cup of tea I'm afraid, conjures up images of cult members in homemade robes but I have odd imagination and am prob not target audience anyway.

Just had pub meal out with my folks and totally horrified my mum by sending my meal back as soon as it arrived! 'Broccoli and cheese bake' was just a v unappetising veg in cheese sauce (not in any way baked) and after umpteen episodes of Ramsey's Kitchen Night, I now know that I was doing them a favour by moaning. Likewise Mary Portas. I mean, how is a dish like that going to attract repeat customers? Whole place was a shambles but I had ham egg and chips instead which was fine.

TwilightSurfer · 17/07/2010 14:32

Buckets I'd have complained too! LOL!

No1 I believe you are due a name change. I wonder if NEW1 is being used? You are far from the negatives these days.

Speaking of negatives, I am one less FB friend and have untagged everything I could find as well. I want nothing more to do with my sil and if that means removing my brother's permissions with my fb then so be it. I also tightened some privacy settings so folks can't see too much of me before I agree to it.

Babysoutofthecorner ?

TS what fools they are to lose such a valuable person as yourself.

My party on Wednesday is a fundraising bring&buy, I have the following from me so far: much used chicklit, new signed books by my mum, 4x beginner's knitkits, a toile de jouy double duvet set (vgc), couple of pretty fat quarters, an unused Tinkerbell photo album, an unused kids' bracelet kit, some nice new paper giftbags & cotton shopping bags with elephants on, 2 spiced banana cakes made so far. It's basically freecycling for a suggested donation iyswim. Plus free booze, greek food and the 2 male smoothies mentioned before. Might also do a fresh loaf in the breadmaker to scent the house and then sell too. So my question is, would this appeal to you guys? Do you think anyone is going to turn up?

MrsMiamla · 17/07/2010 18:43

i'd come just for the quarters!

dizzydixies · 17/07/2010 19:24

I'm oh so tired sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired! what a great day but pooped - would anyone mind terribly if I caught up later - has anything life changing happened?!?!

longwayfromhome · 17/07/2010 22:02

yes yes yes to a northern meet up

love to all

TS why ?!

DS is constipated again...no idea why but now I think it happens when he is coming down with something else so will wait to see what happens. He is in love with Grandma though which is great. They on the other hand think he's a genius grandparent's prerogative I suppose.

Exam was ok but wish I'd studied a bit more as I could see that if I'd put in a bit more effort stayed away from mn I think I could have done really well. Nevermind though it is the last exam I am ever doing.

Dizzy glad you had a good day yesterday.
