Friday Night Thread - Sign in here for cake, wine, tea or whatever takes your fancy

[LollipopViolet]

Just about to go and eat but thought I'd start us off.

Not a good few days - DBoyfriend was rushed into hospital last night with a severe kidney infection. I know he's in the best place but I usually chat to him at night on Facebook, so I'm lonely, first night we've not done so in 6 months :(

Uni got VERY stressful, but has calmed down now.

And I got cuddles from friend's 8mo DS, and got to take him to softplay. Was good fun - although tricky for us to climb in with him. I remember it being so much easier. He has an obsession with my glasses now. Oh, and trying to eat my acrylic nails...

Hope everyone is OK :)

Jings it's fast tonight. Can't keep up. 2old what's this about your DD and the queen. I've missed that bit.

Ineed thanks for the chocolate. I'm not doing too well on the healthy eating plan this week!

Sign what's your PGCE in again?

yeah, what is that all about, nicking the lead? In the roof?? What would make someone even think of that??

Its for adults, (so we are mostly teachers in FE or HE), part time (2 yrs) so we have all been working in ed for years.... (PS I love the course... it's kinda like, oh my goodness... I still have a brain!

triggles, I know.... the roof could have come down on the kids heads,

I have gin for those that need it and those who'd just like a glass or two

lollipop, hope your db is feeling better soon

galena, never too early to start looking! Funny how things change once you start looking, hope you get physio issues sorted soon.

sign, haven't seen you for ages, good to hear things are going well

bigblue, audiology here sound the same, I'm forever chasing them, if I can get through to an actual person that is!

up and down week for us, dd3 has had a couple of nasty falls and has cut the side of her face quite badly as well as a big bump on the head and a few minor bumps. We're hoping this is just a wobbly patch that won't last, at least her school has a couple of onsite nurses! Despite saying no every time we mentioned it she went to a rda session with school and had a fab time, she's quite excited about going again next week now.

Triggles some folk just don't think of the consequences. Seemingly you can get quite a lot for lead. When I was a teenager (it doesn't seem that long ago!) loads of buildings in the area had the lead knicked from the roof .

Sign Yeah. I love my course too, though my brain hurts at times from all the concentration lol.

someone nicked the lead of the dcs old primary school, it was the people who lived opposite with a dc at the school

Hello everyone. Fairly quiet week here. Polling on Thurs meant DS3's school was shut, but a nice friend had him. I'm hoping to get the grass cut this weekend, it's been so wet that it's almost up to the windows.

Dickhead wants a copy of DS2's statement to prove his needs aren't that great so he won't have to support him past 18!

Too far down the thread to remember it all.

Lollipop, hope your DBF is better soon.

Insanity, it was fine, it was fine, it was fine!

I've been chatting to Galena on MN this week, Galena, get the lowdown on school C from our friend

Triggles, sorry your week has been crap. Virtual fumes coming your way.

Lead thieves always remind me of 'Only Fools and Horses.'

x posted again .

Ninja Hope your dd3 heals up soon.

i'm already lost, but DD is upstairs - lawks knows how long she'll stay up there for, i've often joked about nailing planks of wood to her door frame ala bugs bunny but that would be cruel

we've got a taster riding lesson on Sunday for DD, there's a free event at Mouton College if anyone is interested

Well I think I will have to go for the as there is a bottle in the kitchen looking at me. It was free with my Ocado delivery as apparently it is an anniversary of the first time I ever ordered with them. Not complaining .
I am shattered as I babysat last night so didn't get to bed until 1 and I really need my sleep. T'will be an early night for me tonight. Dd has been off school today with temp, headache and tummy-ache. Am worried as to what that might turn into as we are supposed to be visitng DM and DB tomorrow and we haven't seen DB for aaages. I'm hoping a good nights sleep tonight will cure whatever it is and that the will kill off any germs that I may have inhaled today.

Ninja, why is she falling at the moment, any reason? Glad she enjoyed RDA. DS2 used to love it when he was small.

Hi Create. I can't keep up either...

UnChartered, it's an art, answering the question 10 before last.

Hi Ellen. What's RDA?

not sure ellen, she's got low tone and is hypermobile but has been extra wobbly, could be a growth spurt, could be boots aren't supportive enough, could be it's getting worse, just have to give her some time to see which! Wow that's nice, looking for ways out of supporting your child

RDA is Riding for the Disabled Association. Rather old fashioned terminology, but still a fab charity.

A bit worrying, Ninja. Hopefully just a phase.

Ah yes. I've heard of it. It's meant to be good.

ninja at DD falls... create what are you studying? I get the feeling i have asked u this before... sign is at the emptiness of own head

ellen re ex.

Yes, DS2 used to be taken by his SS when he was 3 or 4. He hasn't been since, but it was full of horsey posh ladies who took no nonsense!

good grief 41 messages hahaha! hope there is some wine and cake left! will throw in some baileys truffles for you all.

I am going to have some work catching up with everyones posts lol!

Mad week as you know here but will give it a miss on this friday night booze up

I got Harry coming over tomorrow for a whole day with DS so planning some fun stuff to do!

Oops, that's RDA.

Sign, I'm half divorced now, decree nisi? Not sure if I can officially call him ex yet. Dickhead suits him, though.

Sign I'm doing an MSc in Autism. It's been really, really interesting as well as helpful given ds is on the spectrum.

We're off to the park to tire the DCs out now lol.

Will look in later.
