yeah agree it's you macca. I love Soreen

CantSleepWontSleep · 24/04/2007 20:27

I love malt loaf. Malt loaf contains milk.

What are the accounts for macca?

Yay for fab demo and big sales .

Slapped wrists for PG for forgetting to take pictures. We need pictures!

Flame (and anyone else who might travel by train in the next 3 months) - have you seen this ? Need to apply tonight as the deadline is midnight. Thought it might be useful for the picnic in London.

ARghhhhhhhhhhhh

I've finally finished and am out by £9.16. I cannot be arsed to find it. Had a wobbly, lost all my accounts, started to do them again, couldn't get back to my original figure, was about to through mac out of the window then found the sreadsheet sitting laughing at me.

For some stupid reason, I am Treasurer to a local group and the committee meeting is tomorrow. The bank I bank with has burnt down and I am fed up with it all. It was supposed to be just something to keep me occupied but it takes up far too much time. I have already spent 6 hours on it today. The meeting tomorrow will ber another 3 or 4 hours. Yawn!

Have you tried the ready sliced malt loaf, that is the one that tastes stale, me thinks.

Dh handed in his notice today and his colleague did too. Whoops! Boss is now having major panic attack

Dog next door is howling. Ds2 been a major handful today, too many tears and lots of cuddles. I'm knackered and need to hit the sack.

CantSleepWontSleep · 24/04/2007 22:11

Oh I bought the ready sliced one once yonks ago. Just the once mind. Don't be so lazy and buy one you have to slice yourself!

Still evasive about what your local group does - am going to imagine all sorts of weird and wacky pastimes now!

DS has been whingy today and tired too - took him swimming this morning and he was ok for about 20 minutes then wanted out of his swim seat and screamed. He also hates the changing mats in the changing room and it sounded terrible as I was trying to put a nappy on him.

I am still losing weight, not sure how really. I had to buy size 10 jeans this week as my 12's were falling down and they fit with space to spare round the waiste. I am now 9stone 6lbs by my scales - was 11 stone when I fell pregnant with DS. Must be stress and all the running around I do now I am a single mum.

Off to bed shortly, DS has been tiring today so I feel ready for it!!

2boysmacca · 25/04/2007 06:22

Very hard to take a normal loaf on a picnic? I sually buy the unsliced but we've had a few picnics lately....

It's a Toddler Group but they have registered themselves a s a charity so it's more hassle than it should be.

ds2 woke at 5. I fed him at 5.30. At least he's a happy chap and sings rather than cries, it's easier to ignore

Jelley · 25/04/2007 07:04

Buy the normal loaf, slice, butter and put it back in the packet. I bought the ready sliced one once, and it is definitely not the same.

Doing accounts for toddler group sounds like way too much hassle.

macca - you could come to the London picnic, and pretend you are just passing, so if we are too scary then you copuld run away and no one would know!

Kelaccidental weight loss. Size 10 is good, but if do try and make sure you are eating enough.

Ds has his mmr this morning. He is all happy at the moment, but it has to be done. He usually gets over the shock quite quickly.

2boysmacca · 25/04/2007 07:15

I will do that next time!

It is too much hassle. I would resign but they are strugglong with committee members so I'll do it another year and then go!

I still need to book ds2 MMR.

I was thinking of the picnic but I'm planning on doing a concert picnic the night before so I'd have to have family down to babysit which would then mean I can't make the Sunday. Knowing my luck, csws beady eye would spot me anyway and I'd have nowhere to run as mrm would chase me

CantSleepWontSleep · 25/04/2007 07:38

lol at the thought of mrm and I doing a picnic spotting double act.

Good luck with mmr. Still have to rebook dd's. Will sort it for next week.

Are we going to have to sort meals on wheels for you Kel? Seriously, you must make sure that you eat.

Well sleeping patterns are still haywire here. Up at 5:15 this morning .

Dreamt last night that dd started talking in sentences and that mrm was pregnant again .

I have a comedy image of you both chasing macca around the park.

mustrunmore · 25/04/2007 07:51

Jesus, dont wish that on me! Am def not,I assure you!!

Thanks for reminding me, I need to sort out mmr too.

I had a mad spate of housework last night... so not like me... didnt finish till just before 9pm And at the age of 33, I've finally found a bathroonm cleaner thst wrks for me. And the sad thing is, it pleased me!

at the weight loss kel. You're the second person I know thats lost alot for traumatic reasons. Call me superficial, but I think I need a crisis

I'm having a night out tomorrow, all being well Cinema With lodger.

I love malt loaf. But were skanky family, and have Tesco Value, 22p!

Got to get on and do an hour run before dh goes to work...

mustrunmore · 25/04/2007 07:53

Oh, and csws, I was thinknig about you last night.... I know this is a week after you said it, but... how big is your loft hole??!! Suddenly remembered that you said you had a sofa up there, and was wondering how it fitted through the hatch. I know, I lead a sad life.

Jelley · 25/04/2007 07:56

Saddo that I am, I want to know what the bathroom cleaner is.

And malt loaf is one of those things that are worth paying extra for. Honestly.

CantSleepWontSleep · 25/04/2007 07:57

lol. It's a sofa bed which is basically just a soft mattress that folds in half, then has some soft removable cushion bits for arms, so it doesn't need a massive hole to go up (as the bishop said to the actress ).

OP posts:
mustrunmore · 25/04/2007 07:59

Ah[ smile]

Have you tried the cinammon malt loaf though? We got it on BOGOF, and the boys love it!

Cleaner is in a purple spray bottle, think its a Mr Muscle of some sort, one that will do everything inc mirrors blah blah blah. I'll look later for you!

Flamesparrow · 25/04/2007 08:00

Worried about Kel's weight loss (says she who is still losing weight and pondering that she needs snugger size 10s ) - I remember my mum losing oodles when my dad left She also gained norks - think that was an age/hormone related thing though!

Sliced malt loaf does taste stale. Not had any in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaages.

Already got a card, but thankyou CSWS - my mummy bought me one when I went to Spamalot (was cheaper)Thinking of Spamalot... did anyone see the coconut bashing record breaking thing on Monday?

MUCH better night last night, feeling slightly more refreshed today. Got DS's jabs - and I've remembered n everything

Flamesparrow · 25/04/2007 08:02

Isn'r CILLIT BANG! purple

Oh just to add, jabs are the hib ones... still got those and pneumovax before we even think about mmr

mustrunmore · 25/04/2007 08:08

Its def not cillitt bang!

CantSleepWontSleep · 25/04/2007 08:10

It is indeed .

Flamesparrow · 25/04/2007 08:12

I was a bit scared that it even could be (I even shouted the name )... I am always wary that if it does that to a 2p then one missed spot on the counter will just disintergrate as you watch it
