LOL yay well done Tate Grin

Hope you are feeling better Nicola x

FlyMeToDunoon · 08/09/2010 15:53

lol Nicola. Those migraines are not going away are they Sad

Well I am swithering over ordering a snunkie liner. I shouldn't buy anything as I have spent far too much recently and with holiday the account is looking sad. Money in paypal, should transfer it really but.......well you know the rest I guess.
Is it just me or does anyone else feel reluctance to pay ££ when snunkie seem to re-sell on so cheaply too?
Gah!

Basl think you've made a good decision and I will wait and see you with Nicola.

nicolamumof3 · 08/09/2010 20:09

im def coming up to party, but dh would like to come with he fancies w/end in edinburgh now. is that ok?!

you can all meet my long suffering man then as well lol Grin

i've had busy afternoon. Tate back at TKD, we don't get back til gone 5.30pm and can never face cooking then as boys are ravernous so v.naughty i picked up domino's on way home. Was funny sight luka sat in micralite holding huuuuge pizza box bless him.

i've sorted through clothes and coats esp its ridiculous so put some more up for sale, and going to do toms tomorrow.

dunoon i know exactly what you mean re, liners. hard isn't it. i bet you could make one as you have one to copy..go on have a go?

FlyMeToDunoon · 08/09/2010 20:28

Ooooh cocktails in Tigerlily's in Edinburgh!

Only me and two DDs for dinner as DP out for a drink with a friend and DD2 on a playdate so we just had bacon and eggs. Mmmmm

Have been debating liners all afternoon on and off [as you do lol] and not come to a decision. The black waterproof nylon material I ordered arrived today so I will have a go at a stay put type thing and maybe a liner. However anything will have to wait until DD3 starts at nursery next week.

Where is everyone today?

nicolamumof3 · 08/09/2010 20:52

yes it is quiet huh?

oh i'd love to test a liner for you dunoon!! Grin

FlyMeToDunoon · 08/09/2010 21:02

You would definitely be my first tester Nicola. Although of course basl has a mac liner I made.

BexieID · 08/09/2010 22:23

I'm here, just gonna try placing an order with Next again as did it last week and on the last bit came up with an error message Hmm

carrielou2007 · 08/09/2010 22:31

Evening, basl I would love to come up to Manchester to meet up with you and Geek/Maxy/Diva and would stay overnight?? I would have to bring dc with me though, when are you thinking??

Hope you are feeling better Nicola Smile

Feeling very very low, my wonderful childminder will not be having my dc anymore Sad dd has been going there since she was five months old and she has had them both since I have returned to work. We have had a disagreement over headlice Hmm and I have had enough so we are leaving her and looking for someone new. So scary trying to find someone new so I can feel relaxed and safe at work knowing my dc are safe Sad

nicolamumof3 · 08/09/2010 22:35

oh carrielou thats awful so sad for you all x

basl · 09/09/2010 01:22

Evening/morning ladies. Nicola glad your feeling better. Those pesky migrane's are a real pain!! for you. Nicola you can bring your whole family if you like lol. I really must get booking the venue and get skinny lol

Arrrgggh that happend to me bexie with the sale stuff. I did have fun at the next sale tho. Grin

Carrie Sad that is a real shame but maybe a wee change will be for the best. Suppose its like anything they may get a new minder who does things differently and can offer a whole new way. It could be a very positive thing you know. I would absolutely love you to come to Manchester and yes bring those little cherubs with you. It will be the 8th of October i will be going. Meeting Maxy and Diva and we are going to have a overnight stay but not planned that part. Just a casual lets do what ever weekend. Hope you find someone soon. Can't you send someone out as a spy at a local toddler group or school. You get all the talk of who is good and who is not. Good luck xx

basl · 09/09/2010 01:26

Oh and can i just say i actually miss Olivia when she goes to school now. I have waited so long for this to happen and i miss the little chatter box. She is so so funny just now. My dh had a tear tonight after a bottle of wine telling me how much he wishes she would not grow up. Daniel after screaming all day still blows me away everyday with something as well. He pointed to his george pig top and told me the saaur!!! was geen!!! Ahhh kissed him a hundred times but then he told me "No mummy!!!!! stop it shhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Cheeky wee monkey.

Ok ladies i am off to bed after a busy night at work. sweet dreams everyone. xx

nicolamumof3 · 09/09/2010 08:52

morning all! i love the tales of your little ones basl Smile

sun shining and we are back off to toddler group, everything started back up this week, back to normal. Tho not really normal as Tate is coming, but thats it for him Sad i shall miss him too when at school.

Divatheshopaholic · 09/09/2010 11:34

Hi all,
Been busy busy yesterday and went out last night.Wink

Nicola, FMTD, im defnately coming to Basl`s party,too. I have never been Edinburgh so it will be great adventure.

Carrie, shame about cm, its big change,im sure you will find someone else as nice. Come Manchester with them,it will be fun.

We went school again this morning, dc was a lot better than yesterday and talked to his teacher and key worker. But at the end he wont sit down with group, sat on my kneeBlush

Will be taking dd to Rainbows this afternoon, will see if she likes it there.

FlyMeToDunoon · 09/09/2010 11:59

That is a sad tale carrielou. Fingers crossed for you.
Whew, thought the Superlite had a problem but have been talked through fixing it by customer service at Kiddicare.

nicolamumof3 · 09/09/2010 12:19

what was up with it dunoon?

FlyMeToDunoon · 09/09/2010 12:27

Had DD in the pushchair and lots of shopping [didn't tell them that part Grin ] and went up a kerb. The handles suddenly swung round and were then loose. One clip not tight at all. So I had to undo clip and tighten it by turning clockwise and then clip it down again. Also tightened the other one for good measure and voila all fixed.

FlyMeToDunoon · 09/09/2010 12:30

Oh and Micralite emailed me back and fastfold covers don't fit on the Superlite frame apparently. Oh well.

nicolamumof3 · 09/09/2010 15:20

no i think the fastenings could be different dunoon?

im soo excited about the carrycot, talk about getting ahead of myself eh?!

GeekOfTheWeek · 09/09/2010 17:21

Great that, 2nd time i've tried now, grr.

nicolamumof3 · 10/09/2010 08:25

id ring them bexie, could be a prob with your account?

BexieID · 10/09/2010 10:10

It's the first time i've ordered from Next nicola and tbh, I can't be ar$ed phoning and paying for the phone call when i'm supposed to be able to order on-line for free, iykwim. It's not even me who pays the phone bill, lol. I just hate using the phone Blush

I sent them an e-mail complaining last night and only switched on PC this morning to see if they had replied, which they haven't Hmm I was meant to put laptop on to see if it was maybe the desktop playing up, might try after work. All I want to do is order Tom some PJs. I can't even wait till I goto a store, as mum tried in Reading last week and they didn't have ANY PJs at all! Shock

nicolamumof3 · 10/09/2010 10:11

what do you want i can order for you but then you will obv have to pay post? i need to order some pants for tate!

BexieID · 10/09/2010 10:24

Just tried again, still not worked Sad. It's those digger PJs and the traffic ones, but really want the digger ones. And I was debating the orange racoon top and some trousers, lol. When you going to order pants nicola? Think i'll switch laptop on and try on that, then maybe get you to order the digger PJs for now.
