Happy Birthday MrsJB x

LG&T.....'twas me

Found out this morning that a friend died over the weekend. I have no idea how or why and feel so helpless being so far away. I worked with him for a few years and with his girlfriend for 8years. They have children roughly the same age as mine am so . Have organised flowers and left her a voicemail... he was only 36.

Oh that's horrendous AM. Sending you virtual hugs. xx

AprilMeadow · 14/05/2009 15:08

I feel totally numb, i mean how do you explain to a nearly 5yr old and an 18mth old something like that?

Pinkjenny · 14/05/2009 15:09

It's just inconceivable, and I hope to God that I never need to find the answer to that question. How did you find out?

AprilMeadow · 14/05/2009 15:15

My old boss texted me this am saying she needed to speak urgently. I called her and she told me that she had heard from someone but wasnt sure if it was true. I called nursery as my friends youngest goes there. Luckily i know the girls in the office well and explained that i had an odd question and explained how i knew them (although they knew we were friends). They confirmed but didnt know any details.

MmeJaffaB · 14/05/2009 15:26

AM thats just awful... you've probably done all you can do tbh for the moment. hugs to you & thoughts to them. x

My cakes are now showing on FB, be kind, remember I don't do baking.

Thanks for birthday the messages.

AprilMeadow · 14/05/2009 15:29

They look amazing MrsJB - i'm hungry now

Themasterandmargaritas · 14/05/2009 17:49

MAN UP LG&T and stop your sobbing. Mum of the Year???? () Next thing you know you'll bloody well offer to be a Tsarina too

Flamin' nora will you just look at those cakes. Have a fabulous evening of dance.

April that is so sad, sometimes there are no answers. I'm sure you will be there for the family in the future when they are left feeling quite alone.

TYG, if you're reading this, I miss you I hope all is well.

Pink, I think there is great news about the bean? (did I miss something? Confused)

Guess what? I am going to Lamu tomorrow with the girls, no screaming dc, no whingeing dhs, only chicks and wine (sort of sneaked in as it's a very muslim town ).

Themasterandmargaritas · 14/05/2009 17:57

Here is Lamu

To assuage my guilt at leaving behind my darlings, I have today spent the whole day with Jasper. We have been for a hot chocolate, driven around the supermarket, watched teletubbies, done one school run, gone pony riding with dd, gone to football with ds1 and come home. I don't know how you all do it on your own, I really don't.

largeginandtonic · 14/05/2009 19:23

AM that is just terrible Like MrsJB said you have done all you can. Life is precious we must enjoy it.

TMAM that Lamu place looks blimmin fantastic! Have lots of fun and take a brufen with a pint of water before you sleep Pink had some bleeding and went to the epu to check the bean was ok. It was We were texting.

Am off to look at these cakes MrsJB.

My friend next door used to be an OT. She has organised one of her old collegues to come to the house and pummel us My sciatica has been beyond dreadful since i had India. I am ridiculously excited.

So sorry April dreadful dreadful thing to happen.Thinking of you and your friends

Dress didnt come!Something didnt tally with my card-have moved since last ordered..only found out when checked my email today..so now have tomorrow, with two girls in tow to get something suitable.I may as well give up now.
I liked that frock because it wasnt that tight.(My legs are alright.My belly and muffin top, not so much )

Castiel or maybe spelt Castile is the name of Pete Dochertys son.Just a bit of trivia..

Happy Birthday JaffB Sorry am a bit late.

Pink-are you ignoring me?I have teletexted you.I hope you are OK?I have still got to post Lexies things..will do tomorrow so hope gets there in time..

FIL's scan came back all clear.V good news.He still isnt well at all, but they moved him back to the hosp nearer home and he is sitting up and eating a bit now..which is all good.

DH is away on business in Manchester (actually he is staying where we stayed for GA Pink)He just called to day he was fed up being on his own What I wouldnt give for a night in a hotel on my own.I couldnt really hear him TBH as Lil screaming bloody murder in the background.I know where I'd rather be!

Gin for Mum of the year, Gin for Mum of the year!!Should we make a banner?

JamInMyWellies · 15/05/2009 08:21

What is this mum of the year thing I cant find anything about it. But lets start a campaign we can all wear badges.

PJ glad to hear your bean is ok.

TMAM cant even write about your girly wkend am so have fab time.

SCoot shame about the dress I know it can be a bit fuddy duddy but try John Lewis they are stocking much nicer stuff these days. Or maybe they are not and I am just getting ancient.

Lovely cakes MrsJB.

AM how terrible.

LG&T just seen your HV suggestions re B. nice one.

I have decided Archie has hollow legs but only for cakes and biscuits we went to a friends yesterday for cwaffee and he demolished several millionaires shortbread some jam tarts custard creams chocolate fingers and on and on.... you would think he was never fed.

Tillyscoutsmum · 15/05/2009 08:29

I think we need pom poms and cheerleader outfits

Give me a "G"

Give me an "I"

Give me an "N"

AM - so sorry about your friend. How truly awful

Sccot - good luck dress shopping

Have a good weekend everyone

Pinkjenny · 15/05/2009 09:13

Scoot - I have teletexted you also!! Mainly about Big Macs this morning, but I haven't got any of yours since you asked me about L's birthday.

LG&T - you are a saint, woman, and the heart of this thread.

Tilly - Can you please reassure me that you are eating as much crap as me? Are you coming to the July meet up

Scoot does not have a muffin top. Ignore her, she's bonkers.

Jam - L is exactly the same, and she is so teeny, I've seen more meat on a butcher's dog!

TMAM - have a fab time, I am very jealous.

L's sleeping is absolutely dreadful this week, and I am completely exhausted. I think it may be time for the cupboard. Mrs JB, can you send me the gaffer tape, please?

twelveyeargap · 15/05/2009 09:56

I started a new thread.
