ok lets try here ladies!!!

[WhiteWineAndJaffaCakes]

Alice - hello - hope you had a good time with your sister and enjoyed your weekend away.

LES - glad Karl's behaviour has improved - well done for finding the cause! Zachary sounds like he's growing up so fast. Sounds like you had a great time in Bournemouth.

FT - about the garden - it must seem as though it's never-ending now. Just think about how wonderful it will be when it's finished. at the thought of Alex in a tent!

Dal - sympathies about the indigestion. Really hope that gets better for you soon.

LLL - welcome back.

Not much to report here. I start my new job tomorrow - am quite excited about starting something new, but am a bit apprehensive as well about working 'normal' length days again instead of short ones. Anya has started sleeping longer - she doesn't wake in the night at all now and usually sleeps until 7, which is great. Today though she woke at about 7:20 - if she does that on a work day I won't see her before I leave as I think I will need to set off at about 7:15. I'm sure we will all settle into a routine quite quickly though. DH is being really positive about it all, which is helping me a lot.

Might not be able to get on here quite so often though .

Hi all

LLL-welcome home

WWAJC_good luck for tomorrow, Rich starts his tomorrow too, hope Anya wakes to give you a big cuddle before you go and glad DH is being so supportive

FT-Grrr about the garden, it WILL get there eventually!

Dal, sorry to hear you're feeling so crap, hope the 'glowing' kicks in really soon.

LES-when does DS go back to school? Are you both all prepared?

had a lovely few days away, went to Prague, executive lounge at the airport, limo to meet us when we got there, 2 different 5* hotels, had a salt scrub at one of them which was one of the best things I have ever had done, could so get used to that. Just a shame I felt so rubbish and tired all the time-like now, so am going to bed soon, sorry to all those I didn't mention, can hardly keep my eyes open grr.

[Dalrymps]

Glad to have you back NC. Sounds like a lovel trip away, salt scrub sounds fab!

Hope you get a good sleep and feel less tired tomorrow... night x

[TheLadyEvenstar]

NC, he goes back on monday....am i prepared?? NO my baby starting secondary is scarey!!!

[NeedCoffee]

LES-aw bless, its crazy isn't it, its like you only held them when they where newborn yesterday! Does this mean we're getting old?!

Dal-Thanks I slept brilliantly, feel a lot better for it How are you feeling today? hope the ms has gone

[FloriaTosca]

NC Glad you had a nice birthday treat in Prague. Thinking of you....

WWAJC Hope the first day in the new job is going well.

Had a fab time at the rally... really must go for the whole weekend next year. Dh spent the whole of yesterday (9-5!)cutting down the three trees, loading them into the car and ferrying them down to the tip and then shovelling 4tons of top soil dumped on our driveway into the wheelbarrow and ferrying that round to the back garden. The ground is still too wet to get level and with the forecast being for yet more rain we have had to cancel the turf order (and Dhs three days hols to lay it)...I could cry , all that work and we are still no further forward ... even if when it is finished it will only be a big square of grass from fence to fence, no shrubs/trees/flowers ... all this money, time and hard slog just to have a surface Alex can play on... I should have just planted bog garden plants and taught Alex to walk on stilts
On a more positive note we have just bought Alex a massive set of
quadro off ebay for his birthday as he is so into climbing(I must have been feeling more positive that we would have a garden to use it in when I put in the bid),couldn't afford this amount new but it is in very good condition and hopefully we can add to it over time and it will keep him entertained for years....the set we now have (almost 2 'universal' packs worth) has the 'mobil' accessories which means we can build go-carts and buggies as well as climbing frames and playhouses ..I feel like I have bought him a giant mechano kit so will teaching him both physics/mechanics and to use his imagination which should in the long run be better than buying him a T&P climbing frame with the added advantage that it is easy to store away....Dh was particularly impressed with the suggestion that you could build an out door bar with it!

[ItsHitMe]

FT-thanks.

about garden, what a nightmare, it will get there eventually, OMG at the Quadro, that looks fantastic, I am defiately not bringing my lot round when you get that up, already had to buy Shannon one of these because she like Alexs' train so much, but we couldn't find one like it, so ended up settling for the motorbike, God knows what I'd be guilted coherced into if they saw all the play equipment

[ItsHitMe]

oh crap

[NeedCoffee]

good job you all knew anyway thhen, since I'm so rubbish at name changing thanks for all your support

[Dalrymps]

Lol, don't worry NC, it's only us. I'm even more rubbish at name changing than you, usually post on another thread by accident in minutes!

[NeedCoffee]

I'd already done it on another one too grr Thanks for the last post on the other thread Dal

[Dalrymps]

I did it 3 times in one evening once and had to keep asking mn to delete my threads, rubbish!

[TheLadyEvenstar]

NC thats normally me that forgets to change name lol
