buckets he took a whole series so i wouldn't miss it! So i've got everything from the first 'launch' to the mid-step balance whilst reading the book he'd just got off the shelf!

really pleased you had a good night and well done for avoiding the tent! and especially well done for wearing your hot pants!

i love wandering along the south bank so next time you fancy a thames walk, let me know...we can leave any DCs with my DH Grin

TwilightSurfer · 29/08/2010 21:42

tweakers txt another txt saying "AH FREUD! Looks like the bump answered the last text."Wink See if she replies then.Grin

i've just told DH what i replied to her and he did a kind of Hmm face at me and told me it was a horrible thing to say Blush

think i might go for your plan TS!

pertelote · 29/08/2010 22:12

Hullo.... lurking quietly here, totally fed up waiting to have news on house and it is just sinking in that a great friend locally is emigrating to NZ this week Sad - I know there's skype etc but not the same as sitting in her front room eating cake while the toddlers rampage as I have done about once a week for the last year. Gloom, gloom.

On the other hand, when DH came in vv drunk Friday night and trod on a slug in the kitchen he came to bed and asked me if I had been making aubergine quenelles. Why yes my dear, I always rustle some up when it's just me and DD for dinner and of course I would leave one on the floor for you.... ConfusedGrin Fair enough we've never had such an invader before (just another reason to HURRY UP AND MOVE HOUSE) but really.... quenelles?! That's your first guess?!

hotterpotter · 29/08/2010 22:16

Evening all Smile

Don't be Envy tweaky but my SIL's SIL has just given birth to her first child at the age of 42 Smile Apparently they got to hospital where she was examined and one of the baby's feet was sticking out ShockShock so they whipped her off to theatre for a CS! Both doing well and the baby is called Betty I think.

Here's hoping Pea stays the right way round...

dizzydixies · 29/08/2010 22:21

sorry Pert but I find that rather amusing Grin

tweakers · 29/08/2010 22:21

lol pert i just spat my wine out because of you! Aubergine quenelles?? brilliant!

oh i'm not Envy at all hots..honestly! i'm completely calm and ready for Pea whenever she's ready to appear, be it tomorrow or next wednesday

TwilightSurfer · 29/08/2010 22:35

tweakers making holiday reservations got K to start her exit. Set plans at 11PM and water broke at 1AM she took her first breath at 5PM...less that 24 hours later.

Didn't work with R though.Hmm

LOL do you think he had a nibble and got confused by the taste?

TwilightSurfer · 29/08/2010 22:36

Pert your tale was funny but game me the hibbygibbies. EEUUWWWW!

hotterpotter · 29/08/2010 22:41

Aubergine quenelles sounds poncetastically delicious WinkGrin

GladioliBuckets · 29/08/2010 23:00

Why am I so reluctant to go to bed? Am knackered. Herbal tea time I think, have just bought that Clipper brand sleepy tea which is orange flavoured and quite yum.
Night all.

TwilightSurfer · 30/08/2010 02:13

Just going to bed but before I go I'd like to wish P a super d dooper birthday!

Hopefully I'll find time to check in. DH home tomorrow and has suggested I take the morning to go to pilates and the afternoon to see a movie.Shock Wink Grin

Happy Birthday to P and I

Well we made it through 6 weeks. Mum and Dad went back last night. Was sad to see them go but will be glad to get back to normal a bit. Think I've put on about a stone through eating and drinking too much. I think DS is going to be hard work for a bit too until he realises that they are not permanent fixtures in the house.

Oh I had an apology from pg friend for not telling me in person.

LoL Pert we had my 'Singaporean relatives' over on Saturday afternoon so they could say goodbye to Mum and Dad and we had a bbq with them anyway my 'Aunt' was telling me that my cousin ate a slug when she was 2 years old - ewww. Hope there is some better news on the move soon.

Crispy the surprise wedding sounds lovely

Buckets hope you got some sleep.

springaporesling · 30/08/2010 05:35

Tweakers better get tweaking or we'll be onto the next thread after predicting Pea would arrive on this one.

tweakers · 30/08/2010 06:45

there's no pressure then spring Grin
really pleased you got an apology from your friend

DH and I are doing the competitive 'who had the worse night's sleep'. Apparently being 40wks pg, getting up for DS twice during the night and being awake since 4.30am wasn't worse than his night Hmm

hey ho, i'll get my own back later when i go to bed for the afternoon!

hmmmm...maybe i'll cook myself a bacon sandwich now... the smell would surely get him up Grin

TS i'm not at all Envy about your day...honest!
So you say I need to book a holiday do you? Wink

good morning all

happy birthday P Smile

CrispyTheCrisp · 30/08/2010 06:55

Happy Birthday midiOops. Have a fantastic day with your Big People and little Sis Smile

Morning tweakers - you go back to bed and i'll watch T. Bacon sandwich sounds like a brilliant idea and sleep torture for DH. I just popped back downstairs and DH said i should have a lie in. Errrr, well i'm up now Hmm

DD2 handing me various coloured lego blocks and telling me they are pink Grin

spring enjoy having your home back and hope DS not to upset by them going home

PMSL at aubergine quenelles. I can so imagine MrCrisp coming out with something like that that it is scary. Hope the house moving train trundles on, frustratingly slowly but you WILL get there Smile

Congrats to Hots SIL's, SIL Grin

Lovely news on K's interactions buckets. Cousins are brilliant for exciting new play opportunities. DD1's 18 y.o cousin took her into the hot tub for a splash around om Sat evening. Beats playdough with mummy every time i reckon Grin

tweakers · 30/08/2010 07:05

thanks crisp, its almost parkour time so i hope you're ready for him Grin

CrispyTheCrisp · 30/08/2010 07:23

LOL, my girls are cooking. Gender stereotypes?

oopsandbabycoconuts · 30/08/2010 08:21

Morning,

Thank you ladies.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my biggest girl. :) She has had a few pressies every day for the last few days and today got a Dora DVD, Peppa Pig backpack for nursery and a Sylvanian baby and cot. Which was just the perfect nuumber of presents for today. She is now playing Sylvanians with my mum in the playroom ingnoring everyone else.

Will catch up later and welcome Pea because today is a great day for a birthday!

tweakers · 30/08/2010 08:35

oops i don't think she can hear you!

dizz are you left or right handed? (posting this on fb as well to try and get an answer quicker but if any of you lot know, thats just as good as dizz answering!)

pertelote · 30/08/2010 10:31

Happy Birthday LittleOops! And congratulations Oops on an amazing two years.

Happy Birthday to I too if Steaky is out there... (That sentence is setting off my grammar alarm! False alert, go back to sleep pendantry!)

Glad DH made you all Grin. Bless his poncetastic slimy cotton socks.

Big batch of raspberry cheesecake brownies in the kitchen... trying to decide whether that is a good enough excuse to drop in on my friend and her newborn uninvited. Probably not [impatient, broody face] Smile

tweakers · 30/08/2010 12:01

pert if you're needing someone to help with those brownies, you know where I am... I can't offer a newborn to sniff just yet but I might be able to oblige you if you hang around for long enough Grin
