April 2007 - there's cling ons on the starboard leg

[StealthPolarBear]

Yoo hoo - over here!

Morning Hope all are well

Morning everyone!
Well NL I was going to be sympathetic but after that farting I don't think you deserve it! Hope you find something soon, places near us are recruiting loads after the AfC freeze so hopefully there will be loads out there for you.
My dad fit the bill for Wearside born - moved to Yorkshire, basic physical description (as did hundreds of others I assume) and had his work diaries to prove where he was. I think I probably gave the impression he was bundled into the back of a police car and interrogated

Oooggs, which school did you go to??? It is such a small world isn't it?

NL, pmsl at you farting in front of the patients!

Hope everyone is ok. Need to run. Back later. x

Right I promise this will be last time I gatecrash Eddas thread, but as you all have 1st birthdays coming up I thought of you when I was adding my girls 1st birthday decorations up for sale

1st birthday dec

shoo shoo hawking your wares on my thread again, tutt tutt

remind me when I see you that I have a huge favour to ask

morning - think we had Jack in with us most of the night Erin went 12 hrs again both napping now and have nursery visit this afternoon!!!!!!

Hello

Sorry maveta can't help with the bites, but think you have done everything you can iykwim

pesha - maybe that shop didn't have a full range of sizes, cos my 2 older ds's are both h width and they have them to fit them

and good luck with the possible house move

eddas I don't think you are being silly at all - I think they are being silly actually

Thanks to so many of you for all your good wishes re the appeal - it's going to take a while though, most aren't heard until may/june, but I have to get my forms in by the 18th of April.

Must do some tidying x

my 'friend' Cath is pg

Good news or not so good news?

I have time to myself hoorah - Ernie been asleep for two hours - bliss! Won;t be for much longer I suspect!

And a little thought - why did I have colostrum leak today when gave up 5 months ago????? hmm?? Have not had period since December - but have a Mirena coil so assumed it was normal - now am thinking am pg - but no other signs - so am once again feeling slightly perturbed!! I am not going to do a test - just wait to see if anything starts moving!

Octo
do a test woman!

She's happy, he's getting used to the idea
she told me they weren't using protection ages ago, just waiting to see, but maybe she forgot to tell him?

she seems to be of the opinion that they can just carry on as normal though, with their immaculate home, dog that is treated like a child, weekends all over the country for him to do bike racing etc etc...... ha ha ha ha ha

No - I won't! I am not spending the money on a test when I'm sure I am being paranoid!

Just seen that Vio is fundraising here for James

Octo - do a test!!! I know Bath is a bit posh for a pound shop but I can send you some cheapy ones if you want (Yeovil is not too posh!)! Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not watching you!!! Or something like that

Good news about Cath Ellie - she is seriously deluded though

Octo - I don't have the mirena, just a copper coil, but I am late this month - nearly 2 weeks! and i did a test and it was a bfn

My bil's gf is pg. and I have another neice (they think) due to make an appearance on the 23rd, but sil is haaving a terrible pg, and has been admitted today for iv antibiotics for a urine infection. If I am honest, I can't say I like her much, but i am feeling a bit sorry for her......justa little bit

Goodness me, you lot keep busy! Its all going on, love the bit about farting in front of patients.

A poss preggy? Oh how I envy. Still, at 47 I still get some funny looks when I turn up with our R- who is like a gorgeous pink hippo now! She is almost walking.

Can you believe the teenies are growing up?

Sorry to have been out of touch, I have been working (2 temp assaingments, one in secure psychiatric unit, which I loved!!) They promised me the job, the whole lot, I was ecstatic, then funding was removed, and I am back on the street again. However, have a new temp job tommow.

Oh god, reading about Jim Jim just breaks my heart. He was born the same day as Noah

it is so sad

Pesha - okay send me one and I will do it. Will text my address to ellie and she can forward it!

Afternoon all

well still no news about the job - am really quite pissed off now.

Thanks for linking to that page Pesha - porr little lad - I was still in a state of lurking when they lost him but I read what happened of course - so, so awful.

Octo - get on and test! And report back instantly!

We've had a nice day - coffee morning at school so dd2's class could show what they have been doing in class with Fair Trade stuff and generally looking at things from the global dimension - apparently. It was lovely they were all so sweet and very well informed! Then baby and toddler group then off to a friends for lunch then back to school. It's very windy here but not too cold. Just hoping it's dry tomorrow as dd2 has a trip to a farm!

Thanks ladies, for your kind donations.

The reason why I didn't post on this thread was many of you have already donated after Jim Jim left so I thought I should post elsewhere. Well, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Honestly, I thank you for your kindness. Love x

text me your address octo and I'll send you the one I have left over from the 2 Pesha sent me

off to another meeting

hi everyone
Just thought I'd pop by to say hello to you all. Not much time for mn of late, well maybe a bit of lurking time

Hope you are all doing well. We are ok. It's been a rough old time. One of the young people who I have worked with died suddenly a few days ago. He was only 18 and had come home for mother's day and a party and was blown into a river and drowned. Awful . Has been a tough time. The funeral is friday. I think it will be very special. Hopefully SIL is going to watch T for me while dh and I go.

Baby T is as wonderful as ever though. He's a real speedy crawler now, but can't be bothered to try to walk. he's been loving the washing machine recently and then today I found a big bite mark in the seal Little monkey. Lucky he didn't swallow a lump.

I've been working flat out on the evil PhD. There is sooooooo much to do and I feel like I'm only scratchin the surface most of the time. But as my friend said, "Eating an elephant starts with one bite!". So I keep going ! Ha! My supervisor is now in Norway so we are off there again in May for a conference and then a family hol. I'm trying not to look at the bank balance!

I see I've popped back while octo is having a bit of a drama . I had my own 'my God I'm up the duff moment', but twas a false alarm! I would have been really pleased, but I think I'd have packed up the PhD. Not a chance with 2 me thinks!

I think vio is so wonderful and strong - she totally amazes me everytime (and reduces me to tears) Jim Jim was a very lucky little boy

psml at Bath being too post for a pound shop - hope a test arrives soon octo - we need to know!

tcmummy - at your friend so young

ellie - lol at Cath and her 'perfect' lifestyle - wow she is in for a shock

sat eating chocolate, dh out running, dcs all asleep - may have to grab the tissues and watch part two of Holby

Hi all

have been lurking today but every time I go to post something happens/I am needed!

So incredibly heartbreaking for Vio and her dh. Jim Jim was gorgeous. I cannot begin to think how much pain they feel.

NL, sorry you haven't had any news re the job - v frustrating indeed.

Octo, how exciting! Keep us posted!!

Lovely to see Auntie and tcmummy. How dreadful though about the lad you worked with. Hope the funeral goes as well as possible.

Oooggs, what's up with Jack? Is he ok now? Hope you get a better night tonight.
You never told me which school??

All ok here - just manic. K has been a handful today. B had another frend around after school today. It was ok apart from she weed in B's wardrobe!!! What is it with my house!!!??? B was a bloody nightmare as well - she just goes completely over the top when she has people over to play.

Right, time for dinner.

Back later.

Hi Ladies! hope you and all your little ones are doing well. Thank you very very much for backing me, it keeps my spirits up!!
