Good news for me re MU, SIL is no longer coming down, they decided to postpone til I was around for the whole weekend. The MU came up in conversation last night so I mentioned to DH last night that it might be a very long lunch Grin...

Drywhiteplease · 01/10/2013 20:33

I'm going to a "school reunion" Wink
Linus we'll post lots of messages so you'll feel as if you're with us. X

QueenCadbury · 01/10/2013 20:34

Oh amber you poor thing. Are you at home now or still in hospital? I'm hoping that you have help ith dcs as you will need to rest and look after yourself for the next few days.

umlauf glad all is going well and that you are back on the Wine

turq there'll be something else out there or if the house is meant to be it'll find it's way to you with the other buyers pulling out.

I swing a bit with WiT (sounds rude!). One day I will be completely in love with her and the next day she can annoy me for some reason.

Sounds like none of us have any fashion news. I'm still waiting for my navy clarks boots and I'm still waiting for a refund for the ash boots. Can't believe it can take 7-10 days to process a return. They must have a lot of returns. I'm home alone again this evening whilst dh is out. Loneliness is always my trigger factor for Internet shopping so I'm trying to be restrained. I might just make a birthday wish list for dh instead!

libertychick · 01/10/2013 20:35

Poor you Amber hope you start to feel better soon.

Congrats Umlauf Envy at new baby smell - the lack of sleep is worth it for having a teeny baba lying on your chest with his head tucked under your nose - best, best feeling.

Complete lack of fashion news here - I want a navy skirt - cannot see one I like but TBH have not looked too hard. Haven't ironed in two weeks so getting dressed is becoming something of a challenge Grin.

MarshaBrady · 01/10/2013 20:35

lol at school reunion! You'll have to fill your dh in on your old school chums. You know the ones called Sleep, Shop... Grin

Santa are you coming?

Linus ah let us know when you next come to London for the sales!

libertychick · 01/10/2013 20:38

Oh and happy birthday Anni Flowers

Also really looking forward to MU....

MarshaBrady · 01/10/2013 20:38

I know, we seem to be having a communal fashion pause?! I can't think of anything I want to buy. Or is it that I don't quite have the energy or impetus to find something. Just blank. Odd!

Drywhiteplease · 01/10/2013 20:39

1 2 3

"There's a hole in my kitchen
Dear MN,dear MN,
There's a hole in my kitchen,
But I don't really mind"

because I'll have a fabby kitchen and the builder's buddy's cute

Turquoise the house you eventually buy will be the perfect house. I believe in karma.

MarshaBrady · 01/10/2013 20:40

Turq sorry about the house, I hope they'll be a better one soon. So stressful all that stuff.

OneLittleLady · 01/10/2013 20:40

I'm at a complete fashion stop now. I'm not buying any new clothes until I start losing weight.

QueenCadbury · 01/10/2013 20:40

I'm excited too about the mu although have to get through this weekend first which will consists of 4 other 7/8 year olds coming to stay on Friday night. I must be mad agreeing to a sleepover.

I'm up for drinking lots. Just point me in the direction of paddington for 8pm Grin

libertychick · 01/10/2013 20:40

Lack of energy here Marsha plus I feel a bit uninspired ATM generally. Haven't bought books or music in a while either - we'll all inspire each other at the MU!

shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:40

Waves to Liberty
Yay to Sleep I have a feeling this could get messy :)
Dry never promise updates from a MU - we're usually too busy drinking and chatting to get round to it! Have you seriously lied? That's hilarious!

QueenCadbury · 01/10/2013 20:41

shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:41

YY to inspiring each other Liberty - really looking forward to seeing you again. x

LinusDKD · 01/10/2013 20:41

Yes please dry! I will be checking MNV every minute for new messages.

marsha DH told me last week that I should go to London for the day any time I want but I think I will wait for the sales.

shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:42

Marsha it's because we have all helped each other to get fabulous wardrobes, in the perfect colours and styles - with hardly any gaps......

OP posts:
shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:43

Linus if DH says you can head to London why can't you come?

OP posts:
Drywhiteplease · 01/10/2013 20:43

It goes like this Marsha
" I'm going to London for the DAY pick up friend/collegue/random stranger who has just passed out at the thought for a school reunion. They're all very chic, fashionable ladies I went to a very haute couture school don't you know "

Think the school may have been called St COco's convent.

MarshaBrady · 01/10/2013 20:43

Sounds fabulous Liberty, looking forward to seeing you all. I don't need to buy anything and not even looking, but am looking forward to the chat. Just what I need.

shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:45

Convent Dry ?? You've got us all wrong Grin

OP posts:
MarshaBrady · 01/10/2013 20:45

hehe Dry it is fun.

True Shop! I'll try not to post I have nothing to wear on the day Grin

Drywhiteplease · 01/10/2013 20:45

No QueenC just bored and the dust is obviously effecting me!
Wish I had booked a later train now.....

shopafrolic · 01/10/2013 20:46

I can't wear the Vince sweater as DH is getting it for my birthday (Nov) - gutted! But the Chloe coat can come out to play :)
