Hi everyone - now I understood what you meant Dunoon! I hadn't looked at the amount of messages!!

Basl - I can count on one hand how many dresses I have owned/worn in my lifetime, so doubtful Though I do still have one!! Maybe I should make it my aim to get in it? I must look for a picture of myself in it as it was bought for my friends wedding.

Anyway, you were going jogging!! Much more impressive than me - I dod it in my front room - which, if you could have seen me was fair enogh - my tummy was boinging up and down and my knickers falling down - attractive and then i needed a wee

ill wait to see what others think?

Hope Tate picks up soon.

ah I have given up on me, nothing ever fits in length. pette is all too long for me and I am now too fat for most petites anyway M&S do a short petite (ie are you sure you are not a child length) and that just fits lol but they do about 5 things in it annoyingly. Sainsburys aren't too bad for me but they have reduced their petite range too I will need to just buy some stuff and have t all chopped off!

oh maxy..i have to buy petite at next as im shorty.

maxybrown · 20/03/2010 21:18

I need an 18 bottoms though mostly and next only go up to 16 in petite though they are still too long. Annoyingly, as the sizes go up so does the length! So my sister is same height as me and Next fits her but she is a 10/12 so hers are shorter.....THAT is very annoying. Why do they do that??

OP posts:
basl · 20/03/2010 21:26

Well maxy can't speak for you but i have worked out why petite never fit me. If my jeans where to sit properly around my waist then yeah petite would be perfect however my middle is so big that they tend to slip down like those beer belly men and sit under my belly hence the lenght not correct. If i pull them up they look shorter. Now my problem is if i buy a bigger size they look like jodpurs on me as i have small legs and bum but big tum and boobs. Olivia asked me once if i knew my belly was spreading round to my back as well. She hates!!! me being overweight and told her dad that she wished i looked like her friends mum. She always comments on my tummy and asks what happend to me as i did not look like this in my wedding photo. Tell it how it is olivia!!

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 21:31

oh bless her!! i remember my mum used to be quite chubby then lost alot of weight (must have been when going through divorce so i was 7/8) hate hated her thin as she wasn't so cuddly.

tate was fascinated by my 'fat back' the other day lol!!

basl · 20/03/2010 21:34

Olivia is built like her dads side and daniel like my side soo chunky. Feels really weird in the house on my own but getting on with my ebay stuff.

5inthebed · 20/03/2010 21:40

I can't wait to buy clothes from proper clothes shops. Have been going to the fatty section for too long, need to treat myself to some new clothes, waiting to lose another half a stone or maybe a full one before I do though.

I can just fit into my bargain dress I bought from Monsoon

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 21:40

basl · 20/03/2010 21:46

OP posts:
basl · 20/03/2010 22:22

oh maxy has he been unwell today? that is hot what are his symptoms?

maxybrown · 20/03/2010 22:37

He's been under the weather for about a fortnight, but still a happy soul. I have got it down to 39 and finally managed to get him to drink he is sooooooo snotty which is really unlike him. Now he's had a drink his legs don't feel like an open fire anyway! phew!

OP posts:
maxybrown · 20/03/2010 22:46

basl · 20/03/2010 22:52

ohhh it's such a shame for them when this happens. I think we are all having a shot. Remember olivia was like that last week. She could not stop coughing and boiling hot but she fit as fiddle now. I am going to have an early night i am shattered and making a mess of ebay listings. Too much larking about on here till late. I hope you get some sleep tonight and wee james is ok i think lots of drinks is the order of the day and olivia liked some ice cubes in a cup. Night night maxy take care.x

Ah lovely Sal! Congratulations

Thanks Nic, he is asleep at the min. But went to bed very very late and upset and then woke at 6 and he was on fire again. I had to pin him down to get calpol into him and he had a drink and finally went back off. DH put airbed up and slept in spare room bless him as he is full of a cold too. Then we all had more room!

Divatheshopaholic · 21/03/2010 10:10

Sal, congratulations. Lovely name,too
Hi everyone,
Not well today, i think i have tonsilitis

basl · 21/03/2010 10:39

Well done Sal so happy for you Congratulations. Hope you were ok and Keira is a beutifull name. I was thinking of you last night as i was ebaying some stuff and i a have a lovley little dress and matching knicks for 6m baby girl. I was wondering if you knew what you were going to have? I can send them to you if you want?
Maxy sounds like a rough night in your house. The calpol does make a difference and sorry you have two ill people in your house. Hope you are ok?
Diva tonsilitis sounds ooouch!! are you going to nhs 24?
My dh returned home at 5am this morning . My sister just called and told me kids have been great and slept all night even daniel he woke at 8am. Now that is unheard of in this house, but pleased as maybe she will ask again [hmmm] She is off out with them and her own two kids to the public Glen which is amazing. She did however inform me that my dh did not hand in change of clothes or jackets for them just pj's and toothbrush. Useless Usless Useless
Anyway great news about sal and hope everyone starts to feel a bit better soon. x

5inthebed · 21/03/2010 10:41

A huge congratualtions Sal! Gorgeous name.

Maxy, hope your DS is feeling better today.

I have the joys of the MIL and BIL shortly, might do a runner and leave DH to do it all

basl · 21/03/2010 11:00

Good luck 5in

carrielou2007 · 21/03/2010 11:15

Congratulations Sal!! Hope you are ok and having a rest rather than taking the stokke out for a spin just yet!!

Maxy poor wee man, how are you both this morning?

Diva freeze pops for a poorly throat, bit early for whisky and hot lemon yet

I've got washing blowing on the line, nice windy sunny day, lemon drizzle cake and fairy cakes made. I had my sisters children yesterday so she could have her highlights done and they asked me to make some more as he polished it all off! We are going over there later via my mum and dad's (they live in the same road) to drop some off them too. Dd is sat playing with her plastacines, ds is sat gurling and kicking in his bouncy chair.

Bliss bliss bliss

basl · 21/03/2010 11:40

carrie, your house sounds lovley i can just imagine it. I wished i lived on the same street as your mum n sister cos i would be recieving some yummy drizzle cake
You sound like a really lovley mum.x
