daisy darling don't you dare stop posting, you've got such a lot on your plate at the moment, and if it helps to get things out of your system then that's what we're here for. Praying for your family and especially for you, and really hope your granddad had some good news today.
sybil how often is your DH home? Is there anyone else who could help give you a bit of a break?
trace that's so lovely about P standing up, it's amazing how over the past few months they've gone from being pretty generic babies if we're honest to being their own little people How's the giant jaffa cake gone? And is it just me that thinks it's a disgrace they've removed the phrase "smashing orangey bit" and replaced it with something ridiculous like "zesty orange centre". It will always be a smashing orangey bit, thankyou very much I can just picture you and L having a little midnight cuddle and reassure, almost worth the nightmare for the special time together afterwards.
veggie great news that everything's coming together - and lovely to have a week with DH as well I'd be up for coming down next Thurs possibly, any further plans yet?
Nick Griffin - urgh. Didn't watch QT as we'd already gone to bed and am not sure if I want to see it on iplayer, it's really difficult to know whether know your enemy is best or if it will just lead to throwing the laptop down in disgust.
WG big prayers for your FIL as well. And absolutely yes to giving madam hugs if she's ill at night, there's hardball with a baby in full flush of health and there's going with your instincts when she needs extra care.
LadyT - O may not be on the move but she's a chatterbox! It just proves that they'll learn one thing at a time and then catch up on the others later. DD has only got one "word" which is a kind of up/ab/ib sort of thing and it seems to mean everything!
Aub [dons mask] have you got someone who can get you tamiflu and knock the sf on the head? Do take care of yourself.
kiwi oooh I would have loved to work on that programme, I'm a total word geek (not that you'd tell from my remarkably uneloquent postings ) Am on twitter just because we had to sign up as part of a work project, I've done a whole 4 updates in about 9 months but keep getting emails from people saying they're following me. Mostly spammers I think Don't get a kindle, wait for this to come out it's a single sheet that bends like a real book.
Right, can I ask your opinions on my other thread? It's a dilemma that I shouldn't really be complaining about as it involves a holiday but am really not sure what the best thing to do would be. The trip to France was lovely in some ways but exhausting in others, and I don't know how much harder it would be with a toddler who's almost at the terrible 2 stage!other thread
