Who knows? Gold leaf encrusted cornflakes? It's local ish, dorms etc, nothing spectacular on the agenda. There have been many parental comments. I am warning you all not to start a trust fund but to start a school trip fund!

WLmum · 11/04/2015 23:33

Hilariously (or actually not) DH and I paid £99 for our recent night away, which included nice hotel, dinner and breakfast for us both, and we shared the suitcase dd1 is taking!

We're now on attempt 854 to stop bfing. It was getting out of hand again with T after it more and more and making her whingey. She was less than impressed this morning. Lots of tears and finger wagging.

Ouch WL I'm dreading the residentials.

Beasty what day is your birthday? Mine is the 14th Grin

WL thank you for the heads up I will have to start a school trip saving fund now.Shock

Spotty did Dd manage the whole party without you yesterday?

I rang the ward I was on last night to explain that I was im alot of pain and had diarrhoea. They said it sounds like an infection but not to go in to them, that I had to go the walk in centre (which was shut). The diarrhoea has calmed down just pain which I'm coping with in my stomach and back so will see my GP tomorrow.

Oh hales Flowers I must have missed that you were in the hospital. I hope you're ok and are at least a little bit comfortable soon!

WL I am >.< this close to giving up BF DD. she is not interested all day long, which makes it a fight and I keep threatening to stop... I worry she isn't getting enough fluids otherwise. Good luck with fighting T off! I don't know how people manage extended BF. I need some space after about 6 months I think.

DD has been keeping us up a lot still at night with her cough. I think she is ready to sleep through too if it weren't for her bloody cough!

SpottyTeacakes · 12/04/2015 13:39

Yes Hales she did Smilehope you're feeling better soon Thanks

WLmum · 12/04/2015 16:51

hales I think I was similar after my mmc. Do get checked out though, especially if you develop a temp. Hugs. Xx

ThreeFrazzledFandangos · 12/04/2015 18:59

halessorry Flowers I hope you're feeling better this evening.

We have had a lovely weekend but I am absolutely shattered! I really hope DD gets over this cold soon. And that she lets me catch up on some rest so that I can shake it off too!

As a treat we let DS have some of his Easter chocolate this evening.... He was still singing at 8:30 when he normally conks out quite swiftly after bed at 7pm! Hmmmmmmm we won't be doing that again Confused

SpottyTeacakes · 12/04/2015 20:15

Oh dear nutella. Chocolate is full of caffeine isn't it? Hope you get some sleep soon. I want chocolate. I'm being good though. Haven't had any for two whole days... Blush

WLmum · 12/04/2015 20:40

Massive spider alert! I was brave an trapped him under a glass where he'll have to stay til DH gets home.

spotty 2 days without chocolate is quite something in my book.

MrsNutella · 12/04/2015 20:49

Yeah it has a bit of caffeine in thankfully nowhere near as much as coffee Wink he is asleep but I'm going to put money on an early morning...

Barbeasty · 12/04/2015 20:54

Remember you saying you'd be in hospital if it didn't happen before Hales. Hope you're doing okay.

A enjoyed feeding the guinea pigs and rabbits at the stables yesterday, while DD moved up to the non - lead rein group. He says he wants pet rabbits.

He enjoyed opening my birthday presents today- birthday tomorrow but DH decided there wouldn't be time tomorrow when the DC are awake. I'm not complaining! I got a lovely Frozen cake, chosen by the DC. And the candles that A thought were important... put in at 63 rather than 36!

WLmum · 12/04/2015 21:03

Happy birthday for tomorrow beasty
Riding is such a lovely thing to do - I always hankered after it as a young un and would always jump at the chance to have a go now. I've no idea what I'm doing but it is lovely on the odd occasion.

SpottyTeacakes · 13/04/2015 05:52

Happy birthday beasty Smile
