A BIG thank you to the lovely MrsBadger.

[cupcakes]

for the lovely My Little Pony parcel.

Please let me know your address so I can reimburse your postage costs!

You lovely, generous person, you!

glad it went down well!

No reimbursement necessary - stick equivalent in the next charity box you see.

(She prefers payment in prunes, imo and ime.

MrsB, I will send on that book about syphillis, have been rubbish about posting things, owe packages to a bunch of MNers, whoops.)

no worries NQC
and it was only your prunes I was after
am now deeply buried in serious lit on Thrombophilia And Pg Outcome so syphilis would be a welcome relief...

Is the Thrombophilia stuff about your pg? (Congrats, by the way!) Is that bad vein things? Or what?

I have decided I need to start reading the Churchlands, which will annoy the ex who's been mentioning them to me in ages ... what can I say, the New Yorker sells them better than he does

yes it's me - it's 'tendency to clot'. Had a most unsatisfactory appt at the High Risk pg unit yesterday where they told me less than nothing and made me feel like a fool - irate thread here - so am girding my loins for some proper research.

Oh god, there's nothing so frustrating as dealing with medical 'professionals' that are less knowledgeable than the patient, and not dealing with it well.

Thank You Mrs badger as well from my girls. check my profile for their thank you picture.

excellent pic misdee, glad they like them!

And thank you from DD and me too Mrs Badger. The parcel was delivered yesterday but we were out, so I collected it today. I love those roller skates!

Are you sure about the reimbursement? It must have cost you quite a bit to send out to everyone.

Anyway thanks again. [

I'm sure Bozza - do the charity tin thing.

It would have cost me more to pay to put them in storage, whihc was the other option - once I'd got them all lined up and brushed their hair I really couldn't bear to put them in the bin...

LOL at you brushing the hair. I did notice the tail was all neatly tucked between it's legs.

will do the charity pot thing then.
dd has been playing with them all morning. She is particularly taken with the baby one.

misdee: ROFL at you having a pic of a pram!

DH came home the other day and said 'Where are you?' I said 'I'm upstairs' and he said 'Are you still playing with those ponies?'

mrsbadgers, these are the original ponies arent they. when dd's opened them, my own eyes lit up, as i had a bow-tie when i was a child.

their manes were very neatly brushed, and i love the box they came in.

and of course i have a pic of a pushchair, but thats not just any puhchair, thats the new lulu guiness 'bed of roses' maclaren quest. which i am lusting over for its girlyness.

they've made me very nostalgic - they're proper old school ponies. My sister had that yellow raincoat when she was younger.

I had Apple Jack and two who I think were Butterscotch and Cotton Candy.

Oh yes, they're original first generation ponies - I had a nostalgic wallow myself as I packed them up.

No value at all on ebay though

lol, they wont be going on ebay. dh said to me 'why didnt you keep all yoours' well apart from the fact they were split between 3 of us, as a child i didnt think of keeping them for my own children.

they are very well looked after mrsB, my ponies hair always got matted lol.

I love doing pony's hiar - so much more likely to get a decent result than on DD.
