Glad to hear all parties were a success, didn't doubt they would be.
Blingy i wish my dd realized how beautiful she is, loosing weight again Sad
But....we are off to Cologne for Christmas market and special girl time for a few days which should be lovely.

QueenC · 20/12/2015 13:32

Have fun dry. So sad about your dd as she really is gorgeous looking.

sad to hear about your DD Dry i hope you are able to access the right support for her and for you as well Thanks

goign to see star wars later tonight, can't wait very excited

still trawling the wardrobe to see what im goign to wear over the christmas period but just can't decide, don't want to be either under or over dressed though i know my sister expects us all to be dressed up 'properly' when we see her as she says she 'wants to take nice photographs'

Drywhitethanks · 20/12/2015 14:12

One Christmas time is when you can go for it, impossible to be over dressed, go for it!

Stokey · 20/12/2015 19:00

Glad your party went well Shop, outfit sounds great. Hope yours was good today Lib.

Hope the statement went OK QueenC.

& hope DD is OK Dry, had a couple of friends who went through similar, stressful.

Our party was lots of fun, about 30 kids running round the garden waving glowsticks while their parents necked mulled wine & Prosecco. Big pub lunch today & now it's time to chill for Christmas.

Stokey · 20/12/2015 19:02

Posted too soon, Yeti jumper is too big but hope to size down, fingers crossed I can sort by xmas

QueenC · 20/12/2015 19:48

It was all fine thanks stokey bit it's quite nerve wracking being in a police station even when you haven't done anything wrong. Hope you get the jumper sorted.
one I'm not sure what I'm going to wear on Friday either yet. Can't quite believe it's christmas.

Oh dry Sad Hugs for you. Your poor DD. I hope you both have a lovely time in Cologne.

Glad to hear your party went well stokey. Sounds like great fun.

MarshaBrady · 21/12/2015 09:57

Morning

Lib sounds fab

Dry big hug, I hope things turnaround. Thinking of you

Two days left this year. Can't wait!

Is anyone's DC keen to see Star Wars? Not sure what the guidance is on age.

MarshaBrady · 21/12/2015 09:58

Stokey your party too

QueenC sounds intense

shopafrolic · 21/12/2015 10:15

Christmassy tee for all you Autumns here Now why won't they reduce the silver?!
Dry hugs for you my friend :)
Lib glad the party went well
Waves to Marsha

libertydoddle · 21/12/2015 10:35

Oh I like that Shop - what size do you buy in J Crew? We usually wear the same top size.

QueenC I have had to give a police statement in the past - it is nerve wracking as you are aware of the implications for others if you get it wrong and the style of questioning leaves you questioning yourself Confused. Well done.

I have 3 days work this week Marsha but I always enjoy Christmas week at work, people are much more relaxed generally.

MarshaBrady · 21/12/2015 10:54

Big wave Shop

That top is very pretty

MarshaBrady · 21/12/2015 11:43

Lib there's hardly anyone here!

shopafrolic · 21/12/2015 11:48

Lib my grey one is a L - I have others in a medium but prefer the L for slouch x

maradesbois · 21/12/2015 12:23

Hello!

Glad lib, Shop and Stokey's parties were a success (and any others I may have missed). Feeling very ropey with some sort of gastro bug but hopefully will be short lived. Needed to lose half a stone but not like this, yuk Xmas Sad

The pil are arriving today and have just remember I promised to source a bike for them to give ds for Christmas and have done absolutely nothing about it. Oh well, will see what can be done this afternoon.

Tried on a bronze metallic pleated midi skirt in top shop yesterday. It would've been good for parties but the quality was shit plus didn't have my student card for 10% off so left it and don't regret.

Dry hugs and [vin chaud] for you. Have a lovely time with dd.

maradesbois · 21/12/2015 12:24

Marsha dn (6) went to see Star Wars so your dc will be fine.

MarshaBrady · 21/12/2015 13:07

Thanks Mara oh no to feeling ill Sad hope it passes quickly

libertydoddle · 21/12/2015 13:19

V quiet with my work too Marsha. Only 4 emails so far today. Is bliss being able to do some reading and have thinking time.

Mara I am on last minute toy shopping too. Had a look at gifts last night and think DD needs a few more. I'm on my way to a meeting in London now so will head to Regent St later.

shop thanks. Will order in L.
