I've just caught up with all of this vol and some if the previous. I have been trying to work out how I could avoid going to the sports event and sneak off for a 'school reunion' instead of watching sweaty blokes in Lycra then last week friends who live near the event invited us to stay at theirs for it and I knew my chances were over.
Decam and Linus navy gigis are on my list for this year so thanks for the shopbop link.
I have been working a lot recently and will be until September, I get less time to browse on here but do enjoy the links and am reading even if I've nothing to add. Still trying not to spend while we have some building plans done, I am quite excited.

That's a shame Stokey and Secret. Crossing my fingers that my family event doesn't get moved back to 5th July!

Marsha Ok, I will start training myself to answer to Blair Grin Amber definitely has the right idea...

liberty love the shopping telecon, v productive!

I'm in the hate having my hair done camp. Think I'm going to grow it a bit for a while anyway, I'm tired of not being able to wear it up except in a ponytail, which feels a bit young sometimes.

If anyone's looking for cotton sundresses for holidays still, I found some nice-looking ones on the H&M site (though you can never be sure of the RL quality with H&M). Too many to link but most are on the first page of dresses if you show 100 per page, and most have "cotton dress" in the item name.

I love having my hair done. I'm going to a new hairdresser inn a couple of weeks though so a bit scared.

stokey if I saw newborns every day I'd be so broody. I adore babies. Seriously though, I couldn't cope with the demands of women in labour. If I stay in healthcare at all it needs to be with cancer as that's what I enjoy weirdo

Just spent £140 on new glasses. Too much time on mumsnet/ipad and turning 40 means my eyes have worsened. He expects at rapid decline of my eyesight in the next 5 years too. Joy of joys at getting old!

JL order arrived (mango blouse). Will do some linking of stuff later.

OneLittleLady · 29/04/2014 15:56

Oh my god, oh my god.....something's changed on my uni application. I can't bring myself to look until DP gets home in case it's bad news!!!

QueenCadbury · 29/04/2014 15:57

I'm here one. Look at it!

QueenCadbury · 29/04/2014 15:59

My dh is a soppy bugger. Just received flowers with the note 'you haven't had flowers for some time and you definitely deserve them. You're a great mum and wife-thank you and don't give up' Smile

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 29/04/2014 15:59

I'd have to look! When's he home One? Crossing my fingers for you :)

OneLittleLady · 29/04/2014 16:05

I checked, I had to.

I GOT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grin Grin Grin

Stokey · 29/04/2014 16:06

God luck One - saw someone wearing a mint green My Little Pony t-shirt on the tube last week and thought of you (even though I don't know you!)

QueenC that is very lovely, so nice to be appreciated.
Yes think I would need new tear ducts if I worked with pregnant women, DH won't let me watch One Born every minute as I cry every episode.

QueenCadbury · 29/04/2014 16:09

Yay!!!!!!! Flowers Wine Cake Smile

libertychick · 29/04/2014 16:19

santamarianovella · 29/04/2014 16:33

queen that's so sweet of him,

Drywhiteplease · 29/04/2014 16:35

Congrats one!
Queenc I think your DH is lovely.
OBEM makes me want to vomit.....I'm really not good with childbirth I've done it now. In denial about my two. Would make a terrible midwife although I do love babies.
Secret bloody hell didn't know I'd invited you!Grin Wink
Amber have worn silver pointy flats with bf jeans and tailored, 7/8 tourers for work kids loved my robot shoes will wear with my pencil skirt. Any chance of a blog post so I can have a nosey?
Blair I'm going to have a look in H and M on Saturday for cheap holiday throw on dresses! really find it hard to spend on items I'll wear 3 times during a 2 week holiday.
Liberty lol at you on conference call shoe shopping. Will link something for you when I find it.

Drywhiteplease · 29/04/2014 16:43

for all conference callers

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 29/04/2014 16:43

Congratulations One!!! Thanks So happy for you, you really deserve it! :)

QueenC what a lovely DH, he obviously picked up on how you were feeling, that's so sweet.

Have never watched OBEM, I don't want to be put off childbirth! :P

LinusDKD · 29/04/2014 16:53

DH just forwarded me an e-mail from DBIL asking if he can come and visit us in July. Yep, the weekend of the MU. Sad

Fedupnagging · 29/04/2014 16:55

Congratulations One. Hope you will be celebrating tonight.

Queen what a lovely, thoughtful dh you have.

Another one here who really dislikes having my hair done and who sobs at OBEM. Have 3 to watch so am steeling myself.

I realised looking at our holiday pics last year, I seem to be wearing the same dresses as the year before and some from the year before that. Different country, same dresses Blush.

MarshaBrady · 29/04/2014 17:00

One congratulations! Very well done.

QueenC what a lovely dh you have, good stuff.

Dry I want to listen to that, just waiting for ds to do his homework in the quiet. Is it funny? It sounds as if it will be funny. I just heard the first line.

libertychick · 29/04/2014 17:00

Noooooo Linus Noooo - I want to meet you....

That's hilarious Dry and scarily accurate - I spend a lot of time on conf calls - usually chairing them v tiresome.

MarshaBrady · 29/04/2014 17:00

Fedup lol, don't worry. I seem to have very, very few photos of me on holiday.

shopafrolic · 29/04/2014 17:02

One HUGE congratulations. That is fantastic news and well deserved Flowers
I couldn't be a midwife. I'd be totally unsympathetic and say something like "it's coming whether you like it or not" Grin

libertychick · 29/04/2014 17:03

Good CPW Fedup. I chucked out lots of 'holiday' clothes recently - all approx 8-10 years old.
