Evening! Rushing in to say "why hello Wise Ladies"!
Am cheery as MW weighed babies today and they have chubbed up v nicely. So relieved! Feel like I can breastfeed a bit more, too, and back away a little from the formula. MW will return but am hoping that threat of hospitalisation is gone. Unlike my distended stomach which is v much still here. Until my gut buster or whatever it's called arrives. Oh, the glamour!!

Before I vanish again...

Carciofi - am thrilled your scan went well - passing the baton to you!

Bloss - well done on stall!

Cake - and great news that party went well!

Haven't been able to read back further than that...

eshermummy · 04/12/2010 20:56

hello bunny Smile
yaaay to chubbed up little bunnies

LetThemEatCake · 04/12/2010 20:59

LOL at ourtracey Grin Used to be known as 'traylove' when at universtity by northern types Wink

DH is just so utterly useless with the dc's when he's ill - most irritating. Although the upside is he never moans about me being a sahm as knows he could never do it Grin

traceybath · 04/12/2010 21:05

Oh and just took another look at the little bunnys and oh lordy - the are so divine! God - I love babies so much . . .

eshermummy · 04/12/2010 21:06

I need a .
What in the love of god can you have spent money on yet be so secretive about? Hmm
Undoubtedly, whatever it is, I need one too so you must tell me on FB.
Can't possibly wait till meet-up to find out Grin.

Is it the HH?

notyummy · 04/12/2010 21:07

Ooh well done Bunny! Ltec - put me out of my misery on fb! Was contemplating a designer vagina myself this AM after lots of vigorous shred related jumping......

traceybath · 04/12/2010 21:09

Oh must share my recent thermal purchase. Wore this today under a knitted dress and its really lovely.

Did get a little bit hot though after lugging 10 boxes up 2 flights of stairs at school.

blossoming · 04/12/2010 21:24

I'm home.
Well done on the school fair tracey, and great news re weight gain (of babies obvs) bunny.
Someone better pm me re ltec as not attending meet up or on fb!

LetThemEatCake · 04/12/2010 21:28

Ok I'm so gullible!

FritziGreenEyes · 04/12/2010 22:04

bloss Your lunch with carciofi sounds great. What did you get from Tiffany's?

Can someone please PM me and tell me why cake is on TV? Has that anything to do with recent investment? Property show?

eshermummy · 04/12/2010 22:24

DH is hogging the telly (well. I AM hogging the laptop I suppose)

Just been over to ASOS and placed an order for Monday delivery

Tracey - they have new stock of the mongolian cropped gilets in. I ordered an 8 ages ago, wasn't sure if it wasn't a bit too small, ummed and aaahed over how much I would wear then they sold out and I regretted sending it back. Have re-ordered in an 8 and a 10 this time to check .
Very good for us shorties as cropped shape prevents womble effect.

LTEC - is the blouse you can't get the stain out of this warehouse one? Have ordered It passed me by before as not keen on how it is styled on ASOS but it was linked to on another thread via Warehouse site and I like fact it is long and arse covering smocky.

Fleecy - when you mentioned them the other day I filed over the knee socks in the "not for me" box but..... have since read somewhere (Grazia? Sat times?) about how a flash of bright otk sock betwixt knee high boot and leggings is v flattering plus am thinking I need to make my existing boot selection warmer thus negating need to buy another pair so have bought 3 pairs of otk socks to experiment with.
Sadly, my legs nowhere near as lovely as Fleecy's so this may be a doomed experiment but one that I think would work well for Cake or Hells or NY maybe?

blossoming · 04/12/2010 22:27

I'm waiting for a pm too fritzi. The E4 programme was about plastic surgery.
I got a silver woven ring with a strip of diamonds. I was suposed to go in and check my ring size but knowing dh he would have left it another couple of weeks and it would have been sold out so easier to just get it mysef!

notyummy · 04/12/2010 22:33

Ah Esher, you are too kind.... However I am a. Older and b. More pear shaped than the lovely Fleecy. I don't think I could quite carry off the sock thing. Bit yes, it was the Times I think because I read it v recently.

carciofi · 04/12/2010 22:35

It was great to meet the lovely Bloss today. Wish I really did look like Julianne Moore though! I had a quick look in Whistles in HoF and saw some lovely coats but then couldn't bear the crowds and went home.

Tracey, good on you for your hard work! That's a glam thermal vest!

LTEC, glad the party went well, I am very curious to know what you spent so much on!

Bunny, great about the babies, well done.

Got to go to bed now, night all.

LetThemEatCake · 04/12/2010 22:39

Ooh bloss that sounds lovely!

esher yes that's the one! Not that long nor arse-kind on me as have long torso but is lovely blouse, stain notwithstanding!! (dark material, pattern, phew, hardly shows!!)

I remain unconvinced about otk socks

fritzi sorry was joke, bc I said I'd had some work done ' down there' and then there was a plastic surgery disasters programme on. I'm not really on telly and I haven't had surgery

Seems grossly unfair that the one delivery that's come, post-snow, is for Roma!!! To quote Madonna in DSS: 'where's my stuff??!'

esher any other buys?

OP posts:
eshermummy · 04/12/2010 23:01

only this top which may be so synthetic as to be minging or an absolute gem
I need a navy long sleeved top to wear with this skirt which I have hardly worn.

I was going to order the ugg short biker boots noone liked but I'll wait and see how the otk socks fail miserably work out before succumbing to the inevitable Grin

Romanarama · 04/12/2010 23:53

Hello, I liked the woody allen, though was hoping forore banderas action Blush

I didnt understand any of that cake except that Janice has arrived. Hurrah! No rush to send, whenever's convenient. Thank you off ordering it.

MarshaBrady · 05/12/2010 01:21

I have been to the best party

What are you all talking about Nothing is too pretentious for this thread Grin

FritziGreenEyes · 05/12/2010 07:00

cake Oh, I think I was a bit slow last night due to Gluhwein intake at Christmas market Grin.

bloss Ring sounds lovely! God I love those turquoise Tiffany boxes...
