just for you my lovely

POTC - sorry the good/bad thing related to the bold and caps in pinions post - sorry. Yes the tree was yuck

Liath - thanks

Pinions - phewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

I like the minefield one

I'm sorry but am pmsl at the footie, the goal they just conceeded was a really basic error that our Saturday team wouldn't make, and they are supposed to be our NATIONAL side

Liath dp briefly wittered something about the football, but the football word generally goes in one ear and out of the other, and that's the way it will stay!

Xmas talk: we have had xmas lights up here for about the last 3 weeks already.

I don't really get football - now rugby I adore! So they've conceded a goal have they - ooops

Dp is getting a torrent of abuse from his mates/work colleuges... although to be far its only the same amount as he dished out on Saturday when the jocks got beaten..

NL they've conceded 2!!

That was careless - so how many have they scored

Ooh dear, Dh isn't very happy . I've told him it's just a silly game but he doesn't see it that way .

Thank you for good lucks btw

And yes I am nervous!

Pinions - like your pics! And when you say you've had lights up i hope you mean you're town not you personally in your house?! Cos that really would be wrong!!

Bum what else was I gonna say

Ellie - need to talk to you about weekend.

And whats happening re sw meet up??

PMSL At just a silly game - bet that didnt go down too well!!

Our lights are going up 1st December , we bought loads to wrap around the bannisters at B&Q last week. DH & I were saying to each other "Oh, it's for the kids - they'll love them" - who are we kidding .

I'm here Pesha
I'm on msn too, or at least, I can be!

Liath every time I hear that saying - well it's for the kids - I think of a two ronnies?? sketch?? Does anyone know the one I mean?

As for football. the most ridiculous invention ever known to man. Originates from kicking a pigs head around a field. Says it all.

Pesha. No not our lights, around and about Leeds, but not the main ones. Good luck for tomorrow!! You'll be fine and all that .

Evening.

NL, your dh should be due time off to look for another job. How long has he been with the Company? Sorry for the questions, just I want to make sure he is not being fobbed off etc.

Dh asked about the football, but wasn't keen to watch, so I am watching old Gok Wan. I love that man!

Hi SOL - he's been there a year just - so as far as I'm aware doesn't qualify for any particular redundancy stuff - it's just the usual notice period isn't it?

NL, yep sadly just notice pay, accrued holiday pay etc. He should be allowed time off tho to look for alternatives irrespective of how long he has been there.

I love rugby too. I adore Rob Andrew and have done for the last 20 years!

Thanks sol - Chris Cusiter is one of my favourites mmmmmmmmmmmmmh!

Still a terrible way to spend an evening.

especially if your team loses....

Well yes there is always that.

I forgot to say - my mum spoke to her friend last night - her wee boy is doing ok. When they were born they both weighed 1lb 9oz

OMG really GMM, makes me so so to hear of those stories. What have the doctors said???

Just this sec got a text from a friend who had a baby boy on sunday 7lb8. If only you could bottle the newborn feeling.

Oh NL I´m so sorry to hear about your dh´s/ your news. That really really sucks and please do come on here as and when necessary to scream/moan/rant and let it all out. Hoping your dh finds an even better new job really quickly.

BWI - great news about the weight gain! really pleased for you.

Pinions - no no NO! It´s not december yet, you CAN´T (waaaaaaaail!)

Am thoroughly peeved with dh. When he said about this trip to Madrid he went on and on about wanting N and I to go, we´d all have the whole time together, he´d just need to go and sound check about 8pm then later on go back for the gig but you know, the rest of the time we´d be together. Well today he was ranting about how he didn´t want to go because we´d barely get to be together cos he´d be caught up in band stuff and he´d rather be with us and I am like
.

Waaaaaait a minute. WHAT??! I don´t want to go to Madrid with a 6 month old to be just left twiddling my thumbs while he Fs off with his band. If he thought it was going to be like that, why did he sell me on the idea of going?! I don´t want to go now and dont´t know what to do, the tickets are bought and paid for and we can´t get our money back but tbh I´m not sure if I care.

Then I thought, well maybe I could leave N with Mum and Dad (we´re going from 6am sat. to 6pm sun door to door) and go. Now IF I did this, maybe it would be a really great, fun weekend together, we could drink, we could hang out with friends, I could watch him play etc etc.
But I don´t think I could leave N I feel sad even thinking about not seeing him for 36 hours. Is that pathetic?

Oh I am SO PISSED OFF! selfish self absorbed wanker MALE! Wait. that´s an oxymoron, right?
