oooooh we don't leave until Sept 27th - have a few things planned during Sept, but might be able to make the meet!

DS loving the seaside. Lincolnshire coast is quite bracing. Wifi is rubbish so have only read last page. Love to you all.

oh TS, still no news!

I'm considering joining the sept cece meetup posse so don't forget me nearer the time girls Grin

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 21:50

wanted: decent grandparents. Previous applicants need not apply. Love & adoration of 3 gorgeous children in return. SadBiscuit

tweakers · 16/08/2010 21:55

oh dizz, what've they done now?

oopsandbabycoconuts · 16/08/2010 21:58

Oh Dizz - have they withdrawn their bed offer or just being dreadful?

Hi Tweaky

tweakers · 16/08/2010 22:04

hi oops Smile

cyteen · 16/08/2010 22:07

Cavey it was this one, and thank you for asking - I have just spent a lovely few hours reading back over past threads :) So much I had forgotten! All the details of how our babies came into the world, like miniGardenia being in SCBU or no1's little boy actually being a whopping 10lber Grin

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 22:27

no mention of the bed offer at all - the quinny has just sold for £250 on ebay though Sad so we'll use that towards them.

They've booked to come over, without asking, in Dec. Staying in the Travel Lodge. With DNiece again when DD1 will be in school, has swimming on the Thurs and it will be her assessment week. School on the Fri and it will be final rehersals before her show the next week (they could have come to her show to see her if they had come the week after) and then on the Sat DD1 and DD2 and I are taking my friend for lunch & to the panto (as we do every year) and then they head home on the Sun. I'm working all weekend so we need both cars. We'll now have to give them one of ours or spend the weekend driving them about (between the hotel and Debenhams Hmm) and/or babysitting sodding DNiece

AARRGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. ffs

oopsandbabycoconuts · 16/08/2010 22:33

Dizz - they are incredibly rude!

AHEM, HOT MAMAS appear to be missing a few members, Ye Olde Great Crisp will be back soon to kick butt, please come and visit again or she will- kick my butt twice as hard-- Grin

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 22:35

oh feck, I should be over there too Blush

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 22:35

link please Smile

oopsandbabycoconuts · 16/08/2010 22:37

HOTMAMAS OVER HERE

tweakers · 16/08/2010 22:38

i've just spent a lovely half hour reading that thread cyteen, thanks for linking

dizz you know what they're like, you know they're useless so try and just let it all waft over you like a summer's breeze

oopsandbabycoconuts · 16/08/2010 22:40

I have been reading too, made me well up. Now my tiny bundle is a bigger bundle asleep in her big girl bed snoring like Peppa Pig.

tweakers · 16/08/2010 22:50

dizz if they've not mentioned it, what's stopping you from saying something along the lines of 'ooh, the girls are so excited about help to choose the bed you're buying them'....or something

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 22:55

that would mean my actually having to talk to them - they phone DH's mobile Hmm

tweakers · 16/08/2010 22:59

well next time they phone him, ask to speak to them...that'll throw them off their stride long enough for you to ask them about the beds. job done
Next!

dizzydixies · 16/08/2010 23:48

that's so not going to happen!! Right ladies, have done the playgroup rota and am now heading to bed

TwilightSurfer · 17/08/2010 01:39

i all of you! i'm struggling with school juggling but i want you all to know i'm skimming and sending appropriate vibes. someone shout at me on fb/text/email if Hmmsomeone's waters break or is it water breaks.

as for you hotmamas, one word PILATES!Wink Joseph Pilates would not take a client that would not commit to 3 times a week for at least 3 months and preferred a commitment of 6 months. A quote from one of his promotional flyers reads, "The harder you work, the better you feel and the more successful you will be."Grin

good morning all

thought i'd better sign in early before you start putting two and two together and getting 'ooooh, she must be in labour' Grin

tweakers · 17/08/2010 08:34

just deleted a rant, felt better just for typing it so job done!
was about DH's useless lazy pg friend!

tweakers · 17/08/2010 08:46
