Why are you tutting at me????

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 20:46

Would that be a large or small pumpkin as I have a couple of small pumpkins that wouldn't really make an impact ifkwim. Plus as I have 2 children I guess you could say that I am still postnatal and suffering psychological trauma that I am obviously now fully recovered from but nevertheless I would like to join your club because I need to be liked and loved and given a home.

normabutty · 03/11/2007 20:49

Well, if the small ones won't make an impact it had better be the large one...

BoysAreLikeDogs · 03/11/2007 20:49

Sorry guys, having a bit of fun, fell a bit flat on this thread.

Don't want to offend you so I'll push off.

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 20:49

I could store up my explosive farts and aim it at you however..........

Sexonlegs · 03/11/2007 20:54

Oh Rhubarb, thanks for the offer, but I think we will decline.

normabutty · 03/11/2007 20:55

They won't be any worse than mine

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 20:55

Pinions · 03/11/2007 20:56

Oooooooh yes please Rhubarb, or could we call you Rhuby?

(One can be very defensive of one's pumpkins you know.)

((Sorry SOL)).

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 20:58

Pumpkins rock!

CaptainDippy · 03/11/2007 21:04

VamPesha · 03/11/2007 21:06

Boysarelikedogs - who are you? Are you normally someone else, I've never seen you before?

I know who rhubarb is! And I'm only gonna check out your profile if you've taken the scary doll off!!

Pinions · 03/11/2007 21:06

Hmmm matey ?? .

CaptainDippy · 03/11/2007 21:09

Nope, scary doll is still there, Pesha hon - Eeeek!

VamPesha · 03/11/2007 21:09

And norma did i miss something or were you just having a laugh cos I cant see anyone complaining about our thread titles?

Although i have only read the last 10 posts or so, am knackered from dd's party so just popping in quickly before bed.

elkiedee · 03/11/2007 21:09

Hi everyone, including the gatecrashers. No one going out to fireworks etc tonight? I'm sure D will love them in a few years time.

We had a ridiculously manic day - the NCT sale was fun, and then I added up that D saw 10 members of my extended family today. We got the train back from the NCT sale to aunt B's house, then met my little sister at aunt A's house, where we also saw A's dp and my cousin and her two daughters. Then we had lunch in a cafe and returned to my house, where my mum said goodbye and drove up north. Then my sister had arranged to meet my stepdad (her dad) and his wife at the nearest tube station to my house and bring them round to visit D and us. So by 5 pm when our visitors left dp, D and I were all really rather shattered. D's asleep now.

I bought a few clothes, mostly in 9-12 months as I think D has more than enough in 6-9 m. The baby clothes were quite handily hung up according to size, but annoyingly, one of the sellers had labelled a lot of 6-9 stuff 6-12, and it was all hanging on the 9-12 rail. We also got D a few toys. My mum kindly footed the bill, but I'd recommend NCT sale shopping even with your own money on this first experience. I even bumped into a colleague from work whose wife/partner had a baby a few weeks after Danny!

Enough rambling from me.

normabutty · 03/11/2007 21:12

Well she was wondering what our title was about...thought she was disapproving...most folks seem to.

Also I have a headache and am busy looking for diapers on HUGE websites...with no f'ing clues on...so a bit short tempered.

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 21:13

Ah but I love you!

CaptainDippy · 03/11/2007 21:16

Who. Me?

Sexonlegs · 03/11/2007 21:17

Blimey Elkie, that was a day and a half! Haven't braved an NCT sale before - I am way too impatient and intolerant when shopping at the best of times!

Not more nappies Nutty!!

normabutty · 03/11/2007 21:18

No, not buying more...it's a game...you have to search for the special nappy icon on lots of website. I've found 45 and have 21 to go.

VamPesha · 03/11/2007 21:20

Lol huge f'ing websites can get abit frustrating cant they!

Have been meaning to say for days thanks for suggestions for party games [smiles] Although kids were all too manic for playing much but it went well, cake worked but took hours hence me being soooo tired, last night didnt get to bed till half 1 and 1 the night before and d wakes around 3 and then feeds every hour or so from then on Although he seems to have grown loads so hoping was a growth spurt and will come to an end soon

Right eyes losing focus now so off to bed!

Might see if im brave enough for rhubarbs pumpkin tomorrow - thanks for the wearning dippy

Rhubarb · 03/11/2007 21:20

I love you all!
And your pumpkins too!

VamPesha · 03/11/2007 21:22

Doesnt seem like a very fun game!

Right really off now - hope all are well

CaptainDippy · 03/11/2007 21:22

Night, Pesha - well done you for doing the cake and for oraganising the Party - You're a star! Hopey ou have a better night tonight with D.

Why thank you Rhubarb I feel both humbled and honoured (and a little pissed from the wine I drank with diiner )
