We tried to embarrass our very straight laced teacher by asking him about oral sex. He told us it was disgusting. Now I just feel sorry for his wife.

mooj, me tomorrow :) then nickel. Only for one day and night, I'm not greedy!!!
Smile

Nickel45 · 02/12/2015 22:08

Yeah kel, got it all planned .... Get there early and sit right behind BA ... that'll work, yes?!?

Tbh at the moment what I am looking forward to most, is not having to go through the ordeal of bedtime! I know, that's awful, but it is ready stressing me out, and I really don't do stress (usually)! DS (8) will not go to sleep, and when it's lights out he starts shouting and yelling and calling out ... then when I go in "nothing, it doesn't matter", I'm seriously close to losing the plot. At a complete loss as to how to deal with it, tried taking things away, losing treats, bedtime early, letting him a stay up and read, nothing makes a difference. Anyone else had this? Or any ideas how to deal with it. The rest of the day he is the loveliest, wonderfully loving child?!?? Can't work it out! Oh boy, I sound like some of the other MN threads!!! He needs a CJ regulation boot up his backside!

Ilovelblue · 02/12/2015 22:22

Nickel sorry you're having a rough time of it at the moment. Here's hoping you get to see BA, sit behind him and give a plug to our thread after kissing him senseless. Oh and ask him where ice's autograph is!

Are you going to text me if he's there, then I can pass on the news via here? I have visitors tomorrow night but will keep my phone by me just in case.

Been separating raffle tickets most of the evening in readiness for our main fundraising event at work next week. I think I now have RSI. :(

Richtea19 · 02/12/2015 22:23

Durrrrr! Sorry nickel forgot about carols tomorrow! While you and wycombe are with the real deal... I've got CJ! Think you might be slightly more excited!

Plenty of updates throughout the evening pls! I have everything crossed for you. Smile

Richtea19 · 02/12/2015 22:28

nickel hugs to you for everything you are going through. It's sounds cliche, but it will get better. My eldest was a terrible sleeper (put a lot of strain on my marriage) we did get through it, a lot of tears and sitting outside a bedroom door refusing to go in. Heartbreaking at the time. We had to tell our neighbours attached to us about letting him cry. It was horrid but we go there in the end.
Love and hugs X X

pixieg1rl · 02/12/2015 22:41

Ooh yes nickel, feel free to drop me a text and pass on my number should you get your mitts on BA.

Hugs about the bedtime, absolutely no advice, I still have to sit in the room/hold hands/sing lullabies every night. My recent night away from DS was the first night in his life I didn't put him to bed. It was blissful and I enjoyed every single second.

And to bring a little downer to proceedings, a very gentle hug to mooj following tonight's news.

Hello (waves) just popping in to say hello and thank you very much for your lovely comments.

nickel my 7 year old was telling everyone at school that he didn't have to go to bed until midnight, when in fact he went to his bed at a reasonable time but nothing we could do would get him to sleep - he did get over it thankfully, I think we just stopped caring and did what we could but if he was too tired in the morning then hey ho. Though if I recall correctly i did hide my head in shame at the school gates incase anyone commented on my little vampire x

mooj If there's space for a non frequent poster can I join in the very gentle group hug.

Nickel45 · 02/12/2015 23:38

Thank you all .... Good to know it's not unusual (was going to say normal, but maybe that's pushing it). It's just exhausting though!

Good to see you back whaj, fab story xx

Sending hugs too xx

MaddieMoo82 · 03/12/2015 00:17

Sending big hugs your way nickel hope things improve for you, but in the meantime enjoy tomorrow night. Can't wait to here all about it! Flowers

CJ is all packed and ready for bk to pick him up bright and early for the journey to richs. very big spoon will certainly be missed.

Nickel45 · 03/12/2015 07:04

He's still on the list for the carol concert .... He might actuality be there .... Eeeeek!!! :) :) :)

Dizzydots · 03/12/2015 07:58

The day is here, enjoy the concert nickel and wycombe. Really looking forward to hearing about it - was sorely tempted myself but just didn't fit with hubbys birthday celebrations. Should be magical, with the added bonus of BA, can't wait for you to tell us what he's like in rl! :)

KellyHb · 03/12/2015 08:04

Morning all.

More of the hugs from me nickel. Yes, it will get better. We've had that phase but it really does get better. Flowers

Yes nickel. How exciting! Hope you're allowed to take photos. So excited for any Intel. Smile

Hugs and thinking of you mooj.

icemistOBE · 03/12/2015 08:11

Have a great time at the Carol service nickel and Wycombe

I'm so jealous, wish I could have gone ! Don't forget my autograph Grin

MaddieMoo82 · 03/12/2015 08:22

Eeek! nickel so exciting!! Hope it's a lovely concert and you get to see BA!! Smile

BK28 · 03/12/2015 08:31

Morning rich CJ all picked up nice and early from Maddie, who I have to say had a rather rested rosy glow about her this morning. CJ has obviously been on his best behaviour there!! He was quite delighted to see the Aston Martin Vanquish today - boy with a toy mode going on here now, think he rather see himself in the Bond role!!

Rich CJ was quite excited about your new title and wondered did you pick up the extras that this role gives you access to and he would like to be made aware!! Could be an active couple of days!!

pix loved the picture - made me laugh, but MRBK thought it was a bit below the belt!!

Nickel hope the concert goes to plan tonight and BA lives up to expectations! Pics and sound would be amazing or at least full debrief!!
Good luck with the DS - ours did something similar, we went down the lots of pre bed cuddles, then the night light and sitting outside the door for a few weeks, just let him know we were there but not going in thing - painful but he got used to it. Has something changed at school or anywhere else that means he is seeking reassurance?

Mooj Big hug!!

MaddieMoo82 · 03/12/2015 08:45

Thanks again bk and the Aston Martin certainly had the neighbours curtains twitching especially nosey Barry next door. And yes CJ has looked after me well providing the full service Grin enjoy rich Wink

Wycombe123 · 03/12/2015 09:28

Just a teensy bit excited today for some reason 😁 - fingers crossed for a certain celebrity to make an appearance and a great evening!

pixieg1rl · 03/12/2015 09:56

I'm ridiculously excited on yours and nickel's behalf Wycombe.

I don't think I would be able to function if I knew I would be seeing BA later. I've had to crack open a box of DH's Milk Tray and have a choccie to calm my excitement Smile

If you get his autograph nickel, you'll have to take a pic of it for us all to see. Grin

Nickel45 · 03/12/2015 11:05

I must admit I've not got an awful lot of work done this morning as in completely none! washed my hair though - just in case!!!!

MaddieMoo82 · 03/12/2015 11:06

So exited for you both!!! Good work with the chocolates kelly it's definately needed!!
I wonder if he'll do his reading in his milk wood voice Grin

pixieg1rl · 03/12/2015 11:14

I hope the pews in the church are waterproofed Grin
