Feb 06 - Save me! Save me!

[Flamesparrow]

at your outfit MRM

Well I looked at my tummy compared to my two friends who I spent the weekend with and decided I really need to boot my exercise up the arse again, I looked great back in June, now I'm looking podgy again I've only put on half a stone, but its all sagging in the middle......

Anyway spent Sat night and today in Brum with the girls feeling re-charged! lovely meal out last night, followed by German mkt and shopping for dh's Xmas prezzie today then came home and grabbed dh n kids and drove to Leeds to take ss back, you can't say I don't get about eh!
Car is all fixed, as you may guess, although I think we need to look at changing it shortly, as its coming upto the big 100 on the engine, which for a citroen may not be so good.....

Same here Friz, cept I've put a stone on I'm hardly trainingh ata ll. Remeber all the dilemma of not getting tummy tuck done cos it's mean 6weeks off training? Might aswell have done it now really

So, thoughtwe were all out of the woods, but no. More sickness. ds2 hacking cough. ds1 spots all over face growing alarmingly and matching ones on my torso off school today docs at 11. ds2 trying to help himself to cough mixture

OMG where is everyone?!

How are you MRM? you sound like you've all been having one hell of a crappy week? are you all well yet?

We're off down south this weekend, have meetings re work on Saturday, but hopefully will get to see Flame on Sunday

DS has weirdy spots at the moment too

Benefits sorted!! We have money, plus they did indeed backdate them, so I can repay what mum loaned us to get us through, and we can have some sort of christmas

Frizbe - what's all this "hopefully"???? You will be seeing Flame or a small girl will set out to walk to your house...

Yay for having Christmas!

Gallstone flare up overnight - big ouch. First one since just after having dd.

Eer yuk csws. What does it actually feel like then?

Flame, send me a pic of spots so I can see if same! ds1's getting better, mine suddently spread yesterday over whole chest and on one wrist

Havin a chillout day today , after the school xmas fayre yest... we were there from 10am to 7.40pm, I think I ended up covering just about every stall in the place at some point. Did get an hour with the boys though... they loved the dodgems . Too windy for helterskelter and the bid inflatable slide, which was a shame, but we still had teacup waltzers, chairoplanes, 2 sideshow things, bouncy castle, small inflatable slide, cooking, crafts, tombolas, guessing games, lucky dip, food etc. Phew!

And I wore a great Mother Xmas outfit from Poundland!

It feels f*ing awful mrm. Have spent today at A&E as got worse again.
It's bad enough that I'd consider surgery whilst pregnant.

csws

MRM - they look like teething spots tbh, but afaik he already has all his teeth. Argh for how long you were at the xmas thing!!

Got to play with Frizbe and family yesterday DD1 did her thing when she has had too many additives and processed crap - yelled about tummy ache then threw up (better still, she did it in the car on the way to lunch ), got her home and cleaned up, and she slept for the rest of the visit. Woke just after they went home very bouncy, and cried because she'd missed them .

What happened at A&E csws? Did they do anything to help? Poor you.

So Flame, does Friz really look flabby, or is she just saying that to make me feel better?

To MRM: Yes, she looks appalling.

To Frizbe: You look stunning

CSWS I can only imagine how horrible they must feel {{{big hugs}}} can they operate now then?

MRM your day sounds exhausting! well done on it all though

Flame, dd1 is missing your dd1 too and has asked when you'll be visiting again! I said soon (ish) at which point dh said he thought you might come larping at some point! (I think he was trying to persuade your dh) ......
MRM she's lying about me, I have one hell of a flabby tummy! if I sit down and do that pinch and inch thing, its more of a pinch a whole muffin top... more sit ups req'd me thinks!

Anyway in case you'd not gathered we're home, had a lovely weekend down south just a shame we had to come back so early today for dh to get to work tonight, so didn't even get to stop off anywhere on way home, bah! foiled again......we have stock check to do tomorrow, so all hands on deck (well kinda, ahem, I appear to have accidently booked the hairdressers in the middle of the day, ahem, errrr, sidles off sideways looking a bit sheepish)

Hello.

I'm not avoiding you all,but am having computer issues (It is dying ). It crashes regularly and I seem to have a real problem loading threads from here, so tend not to try.

CSWS - My neighbour has gallstones. I will never forget seeing her when she had her first attack. I could see the pain she was in. She is controlling it mostly with diet but has lost masses of weight as a result.

I do hope you are feeling better and get something done to help.

Big waves to everyone else>>>>>

Mrm, Jas, csws - Is it worth buying an oyster card for a 2 night trip to London? And what is good to do for 2 people who have never stepped foot in London? We're going to see Oliver and maybe another show.

Hope everyone's ok

Quick post as Noah has taken to not sleeping unless i'm near him, aaaaaargh.

Feeling much better today .
A&E just did a urine test, some blood tests, and a bit of prodding and poking, then agreed with my diagnosis and sent me home still in pain with some codeine .

I know bugger all about Oyster cards, but I'd have thought that you'd just want a travelcard each for each of the days that you're there. When is the trip? Where are you staying? Do you want to do traditional touristy stuff or not? Does seeing Buck Palace hold any appeal whatsoever? I presume this is without the dc, so we don't need to recommend the science museum etc?

Oh wow, when you coming? I know you wont want me to barge in on your romantic break, but I can help you plan! Go to Tussauds on a day dh is working, I'm sure he can get you in free . You'll have to tell me what kind of things you want to do though, limit it a bit! Def go to Sorastros for lunch/tea before the show, the decor is amazing.

We're going Jan 14th - 16th, it's our christmas present from my mum, dad, gran and grandad. We're staying at The Grosvener, near to Victoria Station. We'll probably do all general touristy things, Dh is even willing to brave the london eye even though he's scared of heights .

Mrm - are you sure about sorastros? Dh is just reading the reviews and it doesn't come out good

The food is average, and its West End prices. But the decor is fab!! And if you go on certain nights (Sun and Mon??) you get the understudies from the royal opera house doing a show for free while you eat.

Will cetainly send you tickets for the Eye/. Just dont lose the card, as it'll probably be full as its so close to the start of the year! We never used at all pre-kids, but now we seem to get through them all!
I've just checked dh's rota and he's on 11-7 on the 14th and 15th, so could meet you and let you in

Oooo, and if happen to be near st Pauls there's a great pub, scary theme, with the toilets hidden in a bookcase Will try and remember the name.

Go to all the free galleries etc. Free is good.

Mrm - Don't be silly if you will use all the card then don't bother sending it to us you may as well use it

I didnt mean thjat! We dont use them all personallly, so whoever asks gets until we run out, keeping some for ourselves.

Oh ok

toilets in a book case, is it a pitcher n pendlum?

Jas, mine was funny with this site for a while, but I think it was the site, rather than the pc iuswim?

On here at eeeeeekkkk o'clock as some fkn burgler has just set off the alarm at new store and monitoring stn have rung all and sundry, so have packed dh off in car to survey damage (if any n not false alarm, but two trips = confirmed they think, so police got informed too, so I think real, sigh.....feckers.....) Is a bit silly really to attempt it though as not only is place alarmed, but street outside is major cctv hotspot! dur and doh.

well hurrah for alarms, the door had been tried, hence the two alerts, but they appear to have been scared off, woot etc, now where's my bed.....have larp tomorrow for wkend, yawn.

Why has all the text on this thread just gone red as I've clicked on it - weird!

Yay for not being broken into Friz.

mrm - we haven't seen you guys for ages. What's the likelihood of a meet up over the Christmas holidays?

How's the stones CSWS?

Where is everyone? are you all bonkers busy doing Xmas stuff?

We had our larp xmas event the weekend just gone, was good fun Have spent today grabbing stocking fillers and wrapping them, plus getting dh's presents sorted when he went to work and dd1 was at a craft evening, so she won't see them and tell him!
