[Bramshott]

Well Ellie did say we could . . . !

Have a lovely weekend, SOL. Hope the in-laws cope OK!!

I'm not sure about this new look. I can't log into mymumsnet to change it back at the moment.

hi everyone
T getting grumpy as his spoon's not working right

This new look is horrible!!!!

busy and knackered here - getting ready for dd2's birthday party tomorrow - WHY did I say we would do a baking party???????

The house is a tip, I can't find the yeast, I have to go to town tomorrow to buy party food and a cake (oh the irony) and I can't remember what time I said the party BEGAN or ENDED!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARG H

Is it too late to hire Nigella?

What has the horrible new look done to my post?????

Where did all that space come from????

Oh thank goodness - I've got it looking a bit more how I like it now. Logged into 'my mumsnet' then customised back to classic and I think I can live with it.

NL. You are mad.

Evening all. I don't like this new look, it seems awfully bright and it is hurting my eyes I have changed it to classic too, and I still don't like it!

SOL, glad your mum is doing ok, have a great weekend xxx

Been in work today, bit of busy one but weekend off now which is good!

Elkie, sending labour vibes your way, really hope it isn't much longer for you now xxx

Apologies for no more personals, have a great weekend xxx

this layout is hideous!!!!!!!!!!

things are improving - very slowly and loft very near completion

sol - love to your mum

times like this I wish everyone lived closer - if that makes any sense

elkie - sending you lots of labour vibes

glad to hear that oooggs - does that include the feeding?

Wishing I lived closer too oooggs

Morning all!

So Glad to hear that OOGGS.I am amazed you have the energy to post on here
We have sewage leaking onto our patio and saw last night that our carbon monoxide detector was blackwe have been feeling dizzy,nauseous,headachey for a while...am really freaked out and had all windows open last night.
Landlady said that I had prob been using heating boiler more as it has been colddon't know why that would make a difference.
Anyway waiting for landlord to come over.
Have good day all....Doobydoo signing off from stinkbomb stinky house.x

Its sunny here Luce!

We are off to the Falkirk wheel!

Miss you

I forgot to say - he has been selected for McKays - photoshoot next week!

GM - you'll have to let us know when he's in it!

Does anyone else's LO seem to spend all their time screaming? I am getting really worn out from it all.

C is terrible for throwng tantrums at the moment. I wouldnt let him have the bottle of talc this morning - he threw himself on the floor crying for 5 minutes

SPB - You'll know when he's in - my mum will be camped outside every store in the North east telling people that he's her grandson

lol - she'll have to figure out how to clone herself first
Think MIL buys DS clothes from there (are they M&Co?) so she will get me a catalogue I'm sure.

Dooby - hope you can get it sorted soon, that is dangerous!!

Yep, try tripling the screaming I am sure Caz could beat us all though, hands down!!

Elkie - are you having that baby yet??

Glad it's not just T although I am convinced it's related to lack of talking

Hi all

SPB/GM, lots of screaming and tantrums here.

Self-absorbed whinge warning

No baby yet, sadly. Bit of a miserable day as dp and I had a huge argument over trivia this morning, or perhaps the third instalment of the same argument. I ended up going back to bed for a cry until my dad arrived to visit us - we all went out and sort of patched things up but I'm still feeling pretty fragile. And this has got to be the only time when I feel disappointed that funny aches and pains ease off!

D gave my bump a goodnight kiss tonight. He's a challenging little hooligan but he's very cute sometimes.

elkie, so sorry you're arguing.
lol at D kissing your bump goodnight - very cute!

It is to be expected, Elkie. you are prob both very tired and fed-up my lovely. You more. Hope little one decides to arrive soon Feb babies are very lovely indeed - DD1 is one!!

Dippy is quite right Elkie - you're stressed because the baby hasn't arrived and you're worrying about induction and dp is stressed because you're stressed and there's nothing he can do about that. Men (huge generalisation I know) always cope badly with emotional stuff they can't influence or control.

Well we survived the party yesterday - it was really fun actually and all the little girls were so good and sweet - they really enjoyed the baking Off to my parents in a minute - my mum is being licenced for lay ministry tonight so we're going down for the day to giver her some support. The service isn't till 6.30 though so we will be very late home (mum and dad are in Lincolnshire) Poor dh has to get up at unearthly o'clock tomorrow to go to Surrey for the day. Right best get on.......is it wrong to eat fairy cakes for breakfast? They're left over from yesterday and are very yummy!
