LOL

now wanting food - not 'not wanting food'

sorry, didn't mean any offence!

night ataraxis and oops

oops I can't get to see your profile

I did wonder what happened in here - love the decor by the way. And the sofa is lovely oops! Well done!

If I'm brave enough to go to London, I'm sure I can manage a wee trip down the road one day soon. I hope she does settle down again when we get home, it's taken ages to get her to sleep in her cot and at a reasonable sort of time too. I can't see your profile Sazzles, is it hidden?

Who does good jar baby food? I've been trying to avoid it so far but will have to take some with me to avoid running around like a madwoman trying to get baby food at the last minute!

hazie Boots normally have a good selection of stuff

Aw gorgeous pic there Sazzles. SO wish I'd been there [more stamping of feet emoticon] and x 4.

Great to see you Hazie. Yes, come and join Dizzy and me. We choose classiest settings for our meet-ups don't we Dizzy . None of this Giraffe nonsense .

Hi ataraxis!

Thanks dizzy! Is there a brand that's best? Have been brain-washed by well-meaning health visitor, who tells me that I should cook all DD's food myself. Kind of agree, but don't know if I'll be allowed to take a camping stove in my hand-luggage! A bit impractical too!

Poor you by the way with in-laws coming, how long will they be staying for?

Hazie mindful of asking about baby food anywhere else on MN. {{twilight looks side to side checking for the henchmen}} GLAD YOUR BACK!

Oops, I can't see your pics!!!

Sazzles, Dizzy is correct. Our decor is LOVERLY!!!! ;-P

New appliances installed. Now What?

hazie I've just normally grabbed one thats organic/sugar/gluten free etc - whatever looks nice at the time

don't worry about what HV tells you, we normally completely disregard their advice on here

inlaws coming on Fri afternoon and going on a Mon afternoon - shall not be staying in my house and anyway I'm moving in with Poppy to help with her crisis of choice that weekend

Miamla I saw nothing wrong with your greeting.

No1 your nap!!!!

Hi Ataraxis.

Who've I missed?

to poppy

Aww Sazzles, love the pic!

Hi Poppy, i'll definitely have to pop down and meet you and dizzy soon. Is there a place prepared for the amount of females we'd have altogether tho?!

am sure we could find somewhere half way Hazie I hear forfar has a play centre and there is DEF one in Arbroath that would amuse the older ones

TS time to choose your team my love, from across the pond, who is it going to be for the 6 nations?!?

Scotland
Ireland
Wales
England
Italy
France

I think there is someone for all except maybe Italy? who's from Wales then or am I making things up?!?

evening all, just getting this on my thread list, hi to hazie

off to bed - hoping for another good night for all Aug08 ladies

Hi TS! Thought it was safest to ask about baby food on our thread! I think one of our August girls was getting a bit of a bashing elsewhere a little while ago?

Thanks Sazzles, will look out for those.

Good plan dizzy! Not looking forward to being with MIL for the 4 days we're away, but I'll hide behind DH a lot I think!

i guess i'd better take Wales as DS is 50% welshy!

hazie we like the Plum Baby porridge in this house and I'm pretty sure they do tubs as well

night sambo303 am also off to bed incase I've another shitey night ahead of me

6 nations starts tomorrow, am PATHETICALLY excited, time to start initiating Dylan into the way of the Scots

full Scottish breakfast for everyone in the morning!!!

night all

DS not even remotely tired

Dizzy I'm of IRISH blood soooooo...

Hazie, bashing... LOL those ladies attempted to tar and feather the lot of us. God forbid one have a QUESTION on a TALK THREAD.

night night to those running off.

Okay page now visable on here.

I'm not allowed to put DD pics on FB - DH has a strong wierdo vibe from FB so I don't tell him I put them on here and keep them private once you have seen them.

Hi TS [waves]. Think I may have missed a bereavement? If so, so sorry - in both ways! Hope all ok there. My Gran's holding on for now, but has been snowed in at the hospital with no visitors .

Hazie - I actually give DD2 a jar per week (well, she's had one so far, but I did with DD1 and intend to repeat). Reason being that it's a useful thing for them to accept such bland food , in case they need to. SiL made everything herself and was then caught in a crisis and her DD turned up her nose at a jar. I've always tended to go for Hipp or one of the better looking ones which purport to have ingredients that they can have (ie not spag bol for a 4 month old ).
