Anyone heard from Maxy? Has she got problems with internet connection???
I feel like saddo, stalking you girls here since i dont have pram addictionEnvy

Evening girls !! Absolutely gorgeous day today very hot. Something brewing with daniel i think as he has had untold amounts of dirty nappies and really not himself and very grumpy at toddlers. He has cried alot today but know something up. My dh came home from work early today with plans to jog to gym and have work out then works night out with meal and drinks. I told him about Daniel so he said its not fair him going to gym so he put him in the classic and walked all the way to my sisters in the next town to visit her. Daniel slept all the way there, during coffee and chat and all the way back Shock hence him still up now Hmm still it was nice of dh to put us first i suppose.

Diva!! your no saddo my dear i have been wondering where you were for ages. Its nice to chat on here even if not buying or selling prams. Lovely to catch up with you Grin
I think Maxy having a little break from internet at the moment after her lovely hols. Kinda like what we were taking about before with how you felt about it Diva. We all need a little break from it now and again i think and what i love about all the girls on here is that you don't chat for a while but always welcome back to join in when ready. Tis the best thing ever for me xxx

evening all. well my big boy survived his first day at school when i can get off my backside i'll upload pics of him he looked so smart bless him. Totally overwhelmed and exhausted by it all tho. we have some shopping to do tomorrow to get the rest of the stationery he needs. i used to love getting all my new stationery.

we had new carpet fitted up stairs and on landing today its sooooo lovely really pleased but started a huge sort out/moving round operation up stairs so am shattered and quite uncomfortable tonight.

Divatheshopaholic · 03/09/2010 21:33

Aww, Nicola. I will be teary on Tuesday.I tidied his wardrobe today, loking all that uniforms made me crySad
Basl, i feel like i need to stop lingering around, since i dont have pram mojo anymore.
I may be should drive up around see Maxy.
When do you think you are coming to Manchester, could be have night out. I never been night out expect went for meal with other mum friends.Wink

basl · 03/09/2010 21:44

Well thats them both sound asleep now Grin

Oh nicola i was thinking of him and you and wondering what you would be like. It is such a big step up from nursery isn't it? I am sure he looked very smart indeed and looking forward to the pics but don't you go doing yourself in now Grin

Diva thats a shame, maybe we should call it something else then or have another thread because lets face it i very rarely talk about prams although i do love them but you would think i was on twitter the way i go on and on about my every move. I don't know why you cant come on for a wee chat when you fancy it. I love to hear about what everyone is up to and love the pram chat but also love whats going on.

My dh is asking for Friday Sat hols at work so he said he will let me know. It could be not next week but the week after. I am definately coming just waiting on his boss confirming. I am coming alone so yes we can have a night out or i am happy to do anything at all Grin just excited to get a little trip to see my friends. I am looking into a rail ticket that may let me do another visit maybe to kent or london or somewhere where anyone else wants to meet. Why don't you and maxy come too. A little day trip or something. I will be in touch Diva once dh tells me the weekend but it will be very soon. Grin

BexieID · 03/09/2010 21:52

Diva, have you got any photos of cdrive from the back/side? I've either not put covers on properly or theres something going on with the popper on one side as it keeps unpoppering!

nicolamumof3 · 03/09/2010 22:06

it was Tom i meant off to secondary lol!

tate doesn't go til 13th Smile

just been looking for wedding present for my darling brother that makes me want to cry, going to be so sad to miss big day in Greece Sad

Divatheshopaholic · 03/09/2010 22:10

Bexie, havent got any picture that taken from the back. Why not ask Dee/Sarah? She had it for while and washed the covers a few times, i think.
And also Mjams and Bigbanana might know about it,too.

Basl, that sounds like plan, i assume you are meeting your friends, but if you care to meet me then i will be honoredGrin
Let me know.

basl · 03/09/2010 22:20

Diva lol i am not meeting anyone other than MN friends ie Maxy, you and anyone else i can manage a vistit to. Thats what i meant by friends lol I am going to visit Maxy first and take it from there. Rather excited about the whole thing. So yes yes yes i would love to meet with you.

Nicola sorry i am a numpty heed, I have got those lovely boys all mixed up Grin So it's tate starts BIG school on 13th but Tom started today ahhhhh the penny drops now. Numpty heed eh?Grin So yes very exhausting for him. Ben is loving high school. Would you be up for a visit??

BexieID · 03/09/2010 22:30

Diva, will ask mjams and bb as I think they both still have cdrives.

I'm up at 5:30 am for work tomorrow Sad

FlyMeToDunoon · 03/09/2010 22:35

Hellooooo.
Off to sleep in a mo but popping on to check out the latest.
Exciting isn't it Nicola, the eldest heading off to secondary. DD1 looks smart and so far [2 days] is keeping her uniform looking good and her room tidy ShockWe have done a couple of extras shops for bits and bobs already.Let me know if you order from Snunkie as I expect we will both want a similar spec. I can ask for 'the same as Nicola please'Grin
Pushchair thead is not always about pushchairs but the expertise is always there Diva Wink
Basl I would meet up with you if you came down south.

Divatheshopaholic · 03/09/2010 22:37

Lol Basl, it was not just you re boys. I thought was Tate started school,too. Since you said i realise it was Tom started big schoolGrin duh
Bexie, i think you are right.

basl · 03/09/2010 22:44

Flyme oh yes you will not escape me Grin I said to nicola that i would try and get there. I am going to manchaster anyway first to catch up with Maxy and i am going to look into getting another visit to your way. I have never done anything like this before and really looking forward to it. I have travel inn vouchers so should be ok and looking for best way to come down. Flight or train?

I know it's not your think to do meet ups Flyme and prob think oh no that nutter coming to see me but it will be good. I have never done this before but hey why not. I may fall off the wagon on the Sat night Shock still off the vino Shock

basl · 03/09/2010 22:46

Ahhhh bexie thats an awful early start. hope you get some sleep Mrs. Smile

FlyMeToDunoon · 03/09/2010 22:56

It would be an honour to meet you basl Grin

basl · 03/09/2010 23:01

Ditto Grin

basl · 04/09/2010 00:03

Well i just got all excited about my little pending holiday dan saf ?? so i thought i best check i am still ok with a glass of wine. I have poured myself a little glass and it is delightful. I will only have the one as being good on SW but it has really got me in the mood for our meet up.

Night Night to all that are off to bed.

Oh and HMG when i can drive i would love a little visit to your neck of the woods unless you can manage to come with me???? to see everyone.

Same goes for Bexie if you fancy it.

horsemadgal · 04/09/2010 00:23

Hey basl, you are brave travelling on your own.
I don't do travelling I'm afraid, don't ask!
Yes come visit me when you pass your test, that would be fab. Grin

basl · 04/09/2010 00:33

Now when someone says don't ask it makes you want to ask all the more but i wont Hmm

I really am not brave at all. It's another little shove in the right direction to making me feel more confident about things. Just like the driving lessons and going back to work. Things i don't really want to do but amazing feeling when you think you can't do something and tell yourself you can't then finally do it and it's actually ok.

I very much rely on other people with driving and going on hols etc but i really want to do this trip for many reasons but your first on the list for a visit WHEN i pass and master motorway driving. Grin

horsemadgal · 04/09/2010 00:41

Yay I'm first woohoo, made it!!!

I passeed my test 17 years ago and I still don't do motorway driving, well not very often (2 junctions for my nieces dancing display for example LOL!)

Yes I shouldn't say don't ask. You did well not to. Shall tell you all about it when you have a spare few hours basl!

Off to bed now, sleep well.
M xxx

basl · 04/09/2010 01:13

nighty night don't let the bed bugs bite.

Oh i am a bit tippsy. Don't know what got into me tonight. Oh yeah i do!!! a bottle of rose wine.

Well i will be very good tomorrow as i have home made soup courtesy of my lovely dh and i will not cheat at all.

Can i share that i have had 3 full glasses of wine and don't feel like cryingl or blah de blah. I think i am getting there. Not recommended on a regular basis but i do feel different. Wine always made me cry and want to get really drunk to block out all my troubles. Since i have been chatting to my shall we say phsyco lol lady. I don't take so much to heart now and ................ shall not bore you. [just learned that on face book lol]

I am really really looking forward to giving the people i have offered a huge hug on the computer one in real life. xxx
