Just a super fast dash on to say:
Great to see you lwfh. Congrats! Glad DD home ok now and your Mum is being such a genuine help. If only they could all be like that...
Sorry to hear about the sicknesses chez pb and cyteen. Hopefully you'll all be right as rain by the big day itself. This is the house of child vom at present. We seem to be through the worst and they're both sleeping now.
Sounds like there are lots of good parties and big hangovers on the thread, dizzy, vg, sazz, hp - anyone else? . Not as bad as anticipated here after v. disappointing show from my colleagues at work Christmas do on Thurs. Morale so dreadful that there wasn't even any desire for collective drowning of sorrows. Had a fun night though as met up with an old boss who is the biggest gossip and bitch I know, despite now being a man of the cloth . Last night was mother and baby group party (for mother part of the group only ). I was hosting and was fun but numbers depleted by too many people living up unmade tracks made impassable by snow/ice etc. and then several babies/incapable fathers calling back their wives. Only 2 major red wine spillages and in bed by 1 so that's an improvement on the last one of these parties that ended with a 4am close .
Hope your evening's improved qod and I'm not massively religious cc but great to hear you're feeling so positive about things.
So pleased you're feeling so well settled lentil. I had that feeling too at DD1's nativity (I was the embarrassing mother blubbing away whispering in a theatrically loud voice about my little girl being so grown up - effects of work Christmas lunch/glass of wine beforehand ).
Right, fast dash has once again turned into a huge essay so will go, but may not be on again until after the big day as BiL battling up the A1 at present having taken almost an hour just to get the frozen garage and car doors open this morning and he's here until off to Paris on Weds. So, happy Christmas one and all! See you on the other side...
Copious to one and all.
