with tweakers Grin. I think you need the fingers in the ear, la, la, la, la, can't hear you approach. Or just feign a big contraction. That should shut her up Grin

QoD the cream i have is called Vira Soothe, especially for CP

QueenofDreams · 26/08/2010 21:31

Vira Soothe. Thanks Crispy will see if the pharmacy have it.

Thanks for heads up on Calamine dizzy I've never experienced it myself.

dizzydixies · 27/08/2010 00:38

No, NOW it's time for bed !!

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 06:58

Morning all Smile

Off to work in a minute but kettle's on, and it's FRIIIIIIDAYYYYYYYYYYY Grin

oopsandbabycoconuts · 27/08/2010 07:10

Morning

Was just popping on to suggest Vira Soothe to Queenie but Crispy got there first. :) Boots sell it.

Yesterday we faced the hell that is Cribbs Causeway shopping centre to meet my mum and help my sister buy clothes to take to Uni. I stupidlu went into John Lewis to look at shoes but at 10.30am there were 45! people infront of us Shock My mum indulged DD1's Mickey mouse obsession and took her to the Disney store 'just to look' Hmm so how did the little Mickey Mouse end up in her backpack!

Dizzy - have a wonderful weekend - no cakeying just relax and enjoy (even for a little part of it)

Tweaky - how was the wine?

Helloooo to everyone else, how are you all, I need to catch up Blush so I know what everyone is upto.

oopsandbabycoconuts · 27/08/2010 07:14

Morning Hotsie - have a good day at work :)

tweakers · 27/08/2010 08:04

my poor DS looks all grown up with his new hairstyle. DH didn't freak when he saw it and reckons i've done a good job. i think he's just humouring me and not wanting to upset the whoremoanal pg woman Grin

so good morning all

oops changed my mind re wine and did some sewing instead. i do believe i'll manage to convince DH to open a bottle tonight though Smile
Your mum 'looks' in shops for P like my mum does for T!

hots no point you putting the kettle on if you're not then going to make any tea!! have fun at work, but make sure you don't work toooo hard!

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 08:51

Been for a lovely stroll in Leeds this morning as weather too nice to go straight to work. Am currently pricing up daydreaming about a late holiday to the Balearics as there is just an autumnal smell in the air (and I've nearly run out of cheap Tia Maria Grin)

Tweaky glad T's hair not as bad as you thought [phew] You have convinced me that all the little girl commenters re Thor will just have to be embarrassed as I'm not cutting any more than his fringe now Grin

Oops 45 people in the queue Shock I thought we were hard-done to on Wednesday with 4! Did you persevere or see sense and leg it?

Better get back on the coop website do some work, have a lovely day all Smile

oopsandbabycoconuts · 27/08/2010 09:00

HP - I was not stupid enough to hang around! Keep Thor's hair long he looks fab!

tweakers · 27/08/2010 09:13

DS was watching Thomas and has come running down to me really upset. looks like there was a crash or something on it. poor little thing!

good grief, there was another one, he's just shrieked at it. tv off and end of mn time for me!

hots...def keep it long... its far less terrifying that way!

laters chickadees

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 10:30

Don't be put off by the fact it's in the Mail, this story has nearly made me cry at my desk (in a good way!)

cyteen · 27/08/2010 11:05

Awww me too, what a lovely thing.

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 14:55

Ouch!

CrispyTheCrisp · 27/08/2010 15:30

I'm here.

But working

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 16:09
cyteen · 27/08/2010 16:51

Me and you can be drifters together hots.

Hey, do you want to hear what I'm walking down the aisle to in a few weeks' time? (Shock)

tweakers · 27/08/2010 17:29

its all been very childish round here this afternoon...love it Grin

that's beautiful cyteen

can't remember what i had Blush

well i'm back from mw's appt. she has prescribed castor oil, loving from DH and lots of fast long walks Hmm

i'm getting lots of lower bump tightenings from the walk to the clinic..tempted to pop back out again now! Pea is still only as engaged as she was at 32 weeks (1/5 in) but mw has given me her private mobile no. because she's officially off duty tonight. not sure if that means she thinks pea is going to be here tonight or whether she's just being lovely!

i'm now longer convinced i'm pregnant and that it is just that i've eaten too many pies... when will Pea arrive?!!!?!!

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 18:25

Noooooo tweaky not castor oil or you will be Envy and also Blush Sheesh, just remembered you want a water birth, NO CASTOR OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cyteen that is lush Smile How long is it now until the big day? Would gladly join you in the drifters corner too, but sadly my DH has already bagsied that position

Mmmm just had yummy chocolate mousse with tia maria-soaked biscuit base. Fridays is back-to-front day where we eat pudding with the DC and eat our main course once they are in bed, so still have burgers to look forward to, hurrah Grin

tweakers · 27/08/2010 18:28

worry not hots, i'm ignoring her castor oil advice!

i'm liking the sound of pudding first! wasn't there a restaurant somewhere that used to do that?

hotterpotter · 27/08/2010 18:31

!

CrispyTheCrisp · 27/08/2010 18:32

That is a beautiful song Cyteen, DP will be in pieces Smile

This was my music, although my harpist was better. It builds really beautifully and still gives me goosebumps Smile

Finished work at a reasonable time which was great. DD's have had 3 days with CM this week but hopefully revert to 2 next week

Hots Only by being kicked out from my job was I pushed into action Blush. But i have to say, so far so good Smile

Tweakers I reckon Pea is waiting until after 1 September so she can spend another year at home with her lovely Mummy Smile. Oh and i would definitely be selecting wine over castor oil and lovin' Hmm

CrispyTheCrisp · 27/08/2010 18:33

Oh, and what Hots said about the Blush effect too Grin

tweakers · 27/08/2010 18:36

am i right in assuming Blush=unwanted poo?

my friend who's a mw keeps telling me to drink wine! so ok ok, i'll have a glass tonight sheesh!

oi! loving with my DH is actually rather nice i'll have you know!!
