Beans all that "you" time sounds wonderful! Enjoy & make the most.
Arti can understand you feeling a bit daunted by everything at the mo. it's probably hormones and the fear of the unknown. Once bubs is here you will be like a super woman putting us all to shame

That's an embarrassed face Deids! Now I'm very 
that I've been stressed about silly stuff (which I thought as much anyway)
I think Deids boy is highly intelligent and not being challenged enough therefore getting bored and its resulting in this. I think things will improve at school and you're right about GP thing.

Deids, after a few you'll be unable to do that one either. However, you will cease to care!!!!

After a few of deids you won't care what they mean.
I agree with Rubes, clearly Dudesboy is a genius and from what you say seems to have very good grasp on what it right & wrong. I think some of the, how shall I put this, less 'capable' children in his group are just boring cry babies. Your right it is up to school, he's not trouble, he's a boy, boys need to run around & have their own time & space. I do ds2's teacher, she has two boys of her own & really understands how ds2 works. All the kids at his level get an hour in the gymnastics room a day, completely unstructured play. They are basically let loose on the equipment. She also lets them have a good run around when they first I arrive before quietly asking them to sit in a circle for the goedemorgen song. Personally I think that does the trick.

Too funny Vag!
Yeah I did imagine getting the letter. And I'm a bit disappointed. I've also spent the last 2 days highlighting all the downsides of that state school. The joke of it is, my first choice was our closest yet not far away from it there is another school and all the people in that vicinity probably have siblings at our closest plus its a better school so they choose that one. They are closer than me to it but its still not their closest. The whole system in my area is ridiculous. MP needs a stern letter.
Was thinking about the holiday affordability thing while being crippled by private school fees and one upside is the holidays and term dates are different to state schools so we may actually still be able to get on a standby flight in school holidays, which we definitely would be able to do if we were in the State system therefore resigning earlier may not be as necessary and Holidays overseas still affordable. Having said that, we've just booked a week in Spain for summer on a confirmed ticket anyway!
Ugh. Anywho. May have a and forget it for the evening at least as not a lot I can do for now!
I've bad grey hairs for ages but I just noticed a silver sheen over dh the other day.
Arti that is hilarious!! That'll be ds after a term in private school. How could it not - the fees at one include all meals and snacks, all books, and a fountain pen. A FOUNTAIN pen. Struth.
I remember a boy on one of my flight once when I asked him what he'd like to drink he replied "appletiser" and when I told him we didn't have that he said "that's preposterous" he was 7

Oh my word Arti that is hysterical, who's her Dad Gordon Ramsay??!!
I'm making pizzas for dinner vag, washed down with copious amounts of . Oh and in other boring deid ramblings I am feeling better about next weekends Hen Do. I'm sharing a room with a good friend and we haven't seen each other in a while. So we are driving there together which done emergency Prosecco for the room while we get ready. I reckon that should encourage the social butterfly in me

Wait. I do. But it's a special addition number and don't want to crack it for an arvo drink. I have wine. If shady Lady started at noon, then I can have a tickle up now.

Relax, I have Cointreau. That'll hit the spot. With lime and soda and the sun is out.
Deids good you feel better about hens. Good friends will always stand by you. If they don't, then bugger them.
