Yay it's gone 4 I'm allowed to post again!

DH21 maybe overtired and unable to settle? F has been known to do that when she's been a bit overstimulated.

detective when F was on gaviscon, she'd have 1 sachet in a bottle with about 20mls of ebm, then a bf to follow. You would know then that he'd got the full dose. I suppose they say a minimum amount of ff to go with the IG to try to avoid constipation.

pr will keep everything crossed for Operation Big Girl Bed. We used to have a stairgate across dsds bedroom door to avoid her nocturnal bed invasions. She grumped for a few nights before realising we weren't budging. Lovely to get the marital bed back although now been invaded by another sleep dodger

I'm knackered today, no reason as have been sleeping better than I have in a long time. Craving chocolate, would kill for a pint of coffee. Would love bed now. Instead am going to ice some cakes with dsd.

I can't put a stairgate in as the ones we have she worked out how to open. And I'm not buying anymore. Luckily we don't actually have stairs since we moved. The only one we have up is in front of the area the cats have their food and litter, but that is to stop the dog going and eating their food and poo

PetiteRaleuse · 15/03/2013 16:43

But thanks for the luck.

I'm craving Vienetta at the moment. Sometimes I eat it instead of meals. I don't know why it has been going on for a while. No, I'm not upduffed. I just love Vienetta Blush

Sophiathesnowfairy · 15/03/2013 16:57

Mmm pr Vienetta.

I am going out tonight.

To a pudding party. Grin

PetiteRaleuse · 15/03/2013 17:03

I remember when it came out in the 80s and it was a special treat. Now I'm grown up I can eat it as much as I like, even though it has sadly gone out of fashion and no longer makes any pretence at poshness. I love it. And the chocolate version and the mint version. And Twix ice creams.

I often wonder who else eats it. Someone else must otherwise it wouldn't be available but I have never heard anyone admit to it.

TheDetective · 15/03/2013 17:07

I eat Vienetta! Only when its on for a quid though! Classy birds :)

Mint only though. Classier.

I've just rung about 15 different swimming pools. 'Hello, please could you tell me the temperature of your small pool'. Trying to find a pool hotter than 30-31 degrees is impossible! And when one woman said '84' I did a double take. Then asked her what that was in degrees celcius Grin.

Poor O. He likes it hot purple limb syndrome!.

ValiumQueen · 15/03/2013 17:16

Vienetta lover here. Not mint though. Tastes like toothpaste.

Arctic Roll?

Pikz · 15/03/2013 17:19

I looooves Vienetta and article roll. My mum buys them as a treat for me when I'm blue. Yes I am 30 and left home 13 years ago. Smile

TheDetective · 15/03/2013 17:21

Arctic roll = school! But yum!

Frozen eclairs? Mini ones. Has to be mini ones.

DP and DS are currently playing minecraft on xbox. Sad fucking bastards. It looks super shit!

DS1 having made a fucking miraculous recovery Hmm

PetiteRaleuse · 15/03/2013 17:22

When I go back to the UK my mum stocks up on Rolo chilled yoghurty type things and Lilt. I love them. She still refuses to buy pickled onion flavoured monster munch though. Hve to do that myself. And when people come over here I ask them to bring pear drops and old fashioned midget gems, where the black ones are liquorice flavoured.

I'm obsessed with food. I'll shut up now.

ValiumQueen · 15/03/2013 17:24

Frozen eclairs but still frozen. Never get a chance to thaw.

Pikz · 15/03/2013 17:36

PR I can never get those damn midget gems!

I like milk bottles with corn flour on them not the rubbery ones.

Mostly I miss fish chips mushy peas and scraps from Yorkshire.

BigPigLittlePig · 15/03/2013 17:40

My dads fave pudding is arctic roll.
I love vienetta. The crunchy thin chocolate layers, the creamy icecream. Nom nom, foody Friday returns!

There are sprinkley cake decorations all over my kitchen floor. What's the betting this is the one thing the cat won't hoover up?

PetiteRaleuse · 15/03/2013 17:41

Can't wait for my fish n chips in June from BLS chippy. Yay.

Sophiathesnowfairy · 15/03/2013 17:51

Me. I eat Veinetta. And I share it with kids.

When I feel like it.

Sophiathesnowfairy · 15/03/2013 17:52

Ooo arctic roll.

Sophiathesnowfairy · 15/03/2013 17:52

I can not wait for my pudding party.

PetiteRaleuse · 15/03/2013 17:52

Pikz I think it was glenda who pointed me in the direction of a site called a Quarter of.... Worth a look.

TooManyDicksOnTheDancefloor · 15/03/2013 17:53

I'll have some fish, chips, mushy peas and scraps on your behalf tomorrow if you like pikz, cooked in dripping of courseSmile

Sophiathesnowfairy · 15/03/2013 17:55

I will report in later and share the pudding fest.

Pikz · 15/03/2013 18:06

Too many do it... With bread and butter pleaaase!

Pikz · 15/03/2013 18:06

Sophia... Gorge yourself!

PR I can't go on there... I would loose all my teeth!

TheDetective · 15/03/2013 18:19

Fuck! I'd love a pudding party! Might have one for me only!.

VQ I was going to say that. But I thought people may think bad of me. But yes. Agreed. Frozen. Grin
