Afternoon all

Eddas, I hope the funeral went well and you are ok. xx

Dippy, still wibbling??

Lexi, glad you had a chat with your dp. Lovely pics btw - K looks so grown up!

Hi Bramshott, long time no see!

SPB, how is T these days? Any more d and v?

Hi Dooby, Luce, Oooggs, GM and all others I have missed!

K currently eating B's left over super noodles! What a disgraceful mother I am!!!

cazboldy · 24/06/2008 17:42

I have a nice top, which I wore to an evening reception oooggs, black with pink bits all over it.....I have a bigger top than bottom, due to large boobs, but am about the same size as you. Have to confess I have only ever bought 3 items of mat wear.... ever... I am loathe to waste money, so just buy drawstring trousers etc, but I don't get very big, so I guess that helps....

GM - Lots of love for Archie

Been to look at the house/job

Got to talk to dh but the upshot is, he says it is my decision!

so do I go for a smaller house and garden, but shorter hours and more money, and nicer people, and more time off,......or stay here....nice big house, huge garden (which is a mess because I don't have the time to do it!) hardly see dh, struggle financially etc???????????????

ds1 and his cow are safely installed at the norfolk show.... wish us luck for tomorrow... It would be lovely if she won!

Nice to "see" you MJ... How are you feeling?

POTC - Hope you are feeling ok

Dippy hope you are feeling better

Lexi - Well done re Dh

Eddas - hope the funeral was ok xx

Hi To everyone else xx

CaptainDippy · 24/06/2008 17:54

Good luck Caz's DS1 and cow I would personally go for the first option Caz - HTH

Mmmmm, I lurve Super Noodles

Phoebe's had a her face scratched by a bloody Seagull at nursery!!!!!!!!!!

cazboldy · 24/06/2008 18:56

by a seagull

Eddas · 24/06/2008 19:02

caz, i would go for option one, better hours/pay would sway it for me, plus the smaller garden as i/we don't do really do gardening Is the house much smaller? would all 7 of you be ok in it?

CD poor p, hope she's not too badly scratched

Hi everyone i've missed >

The funeral went as well as they ever do. My friends brother wrote a lovely message to read out. His mum would've been proud i remember he wrote a poem for his dad which was lovely too. My friend gave me the biggest hug which was lovely It was odd being in my friends parents house without either of them being there. I used to stay over every weekend when we were 18-21ish as they live close to town, i have lovely memories of that time which i shall treasure. I'm glad that her parents have been reunited wherever they are

Doobydoo · 24/06/2008 19:04

SEAGULL?!!!!!What the Feck?
Caz...what you going to do?
How are you Eddas?

CaptainDippy · 24/06/2008 19:25

Oh Eddas - sounds such a bittersweet occasion - so glad you could be there today xx

Yes, by a bloody Seagull!! Scratch didn't break the skin, thank goodness, but it is red and sore, poor love. It is right below her eye; so I shudder to think what could've happened!! ....

lexilex · 24/06/2008 19:42

hi sol, yeah (i hate to brag lol,) she been walking since she was 9 months old so shes an ace at it now, i forget sometimes how little she actully is, and her b'day is the 30th so she is one of the youngest in this group. but her determination adds bout a year on her. lol

lexilex · 24/06/2008 19:45

eddas, glad the day went well for you and your friend,

cd, how strange to be scrached by a seagull. i hope you sue. lol.

cas, i would pic the first choice but it depends on how many there are of you and how big the house is, but at the moment for everyone its every penny counts. xxx

get your magnifying glass at the ready
take a look here

PillockOfTheCommunity · 24/06/2008 19:47

Only now you need to look for a missing mobile phone I borrowed from work too, last seen in Joe's hands while I was dozing on Sunday

elkiedee · 24/06/2008 19:52

Caz, what's the difference in size and how would that affect you all? Particularly in the house, if you're not able to look after the bigger garden to make the most of it? Overall the new job etc sounds like a better deal but like everyone else I don't know enough how serious the cons are.

Dippy, poor P - it's not a hazard you expect, presumably.

Sexonlegs · 24/06/2008 20:44

Dippy, a seagull??? Poor P; hope she is ok.

Wow Lexi walking at 9 months! My K is a slow starter bless her

Caz, how much smaller is the house?
I would suggest writing down a list of the pros and cons of both options. Good luck!

oooggs · 24/06/2008 20:52

evening

caz - thats hard can you all fit in the smaller house? Its not a 2 up 2 down is it? Quality time is important and more money so sounds good

dippy - a seagull

ellie - can Joe hotwire?

Can't see me going to work tomorrow

geordieminx · 24/06/2008 21:03

Eddas - pleased today went as well as could be expected.

CD - about poor pheobs' - hope she is ok.

MJ - Hope you are taking it easy!!

Oooggss - I have a black and white spotty wrap dress I could send you? Its a very small 18 but great for bumps?
