Is anyone watching Royal Navy School on Channel 4? Fascinating but very harsh at the same time.

pixieg1rl · 15/02/2016 22:41

I'm recording it ilove, not watched any yet.

Thanks ice and rich. Trying to get my head back into it!!

pixieg1rl · 16/02/2016 08:49

Hellish night here. I lost count how many times I was up to look after DS. Also fuming as MrP who hasn't got up once to help in the last 2 nights.

Great update jen, I think you're comfortably back in the swing of things.

MaddieMoo82 · 16/02/2016 09:06

Morning all. everything has been a bit sht the last couple of days so haven't popped on. I feel your pain pix. Flowers and hope DS is ok. Updates from whajeb and jen* both fabulous!! Angsty central!
-4 here this morning but it's beautiful and got a lovely view of the space station last night. Any ho must go and do some bits and bobs hope your all surviving half term so far X

pixieg1rl · 16/02/2016 09:26

Oh dear Mads I hope things are improving now.

moojangles · 16/02/2016 09:31

jen, spo and whajeb, as amazing as always. mads I do hope things are getting better, and for you too pix[flowers

MaddieMoo82 · 16/02/2016 09:52

Thanks Flowers build up of a lot of issues which lets just say got aired nicely on Sunday. Note to self, Valentine's Day is not the day to do this...

cjwoofwoof · 16/02/2016 10:08

Sorry to hear your OHs are being bellends pix and mads do what I do and wreak revenge in other ways. Dog blankets in with work clothes...out of date/been on the floor once/dog already licked pork chop for tea...anything like that can be quite satisfying Grin

Bah! Had no time to catch up on the ff as my kitchen is looking like The Somme since the weekend and needless to say my sons still think toasties and roast dinners and shepherds pie are still on the menu Angry

Morning all.

Its been chaotic here yesterday with the kids being off school and didn't get a minute to come on here! I think it'll be a running theme for all of this week. Plus I hurt my neck yesterday as have major pain and can't really turn it which is a awkward when you're trying to calm down three kids from arguing!! Trying to put off doing arts and crafts but I might have to bite the bullet and go for it.

Dreading the summer holidays! DH will need to take off a decent amount of time then!!

pix sorry to hear about DS. Is he feeling any better as the mornings going on?

mads hope things look brighter soon.

I really need to catch up on FF and generally sort myself out too with jobs I need to do but all these little bleeders are draining every grain of energy I have.

woof very envious of your kitchen improvements!!

cjwoofwoof · 16/02/2016 11:37

Ah yes [kel] the joy of kitchen improvements is that it's very sweaty work. Poor Matthias, Aidan and CJ have had to go topless for the last three days as they insisted on volunteering. It's a very hands on job for me especially Grin

cjwoofwoof · 16/02/2016 11:44

And I could do without this headline whilst feeling peckish too...

Aw mooj wish I was there. Did you go down the pier? Is it all poshed up now that Jamie and Jimmy have their cafe down there? Wish I was there :) Envy Hope you are having a lovely time. Apparently the Three
Shells (is that what it's called? If it isn't, I'm sure you know where I mean!!) are doing lovely plates of doughnuts at the moment.

I spent the last 24 hr fighting some bug, but hoping I'm ok now. No time to be ill when the kids are off!! Slept for 12 hours so hoping that worked. DS got in my bed when he thought I was asleep "to look after me". So lovely :)

Have a good day everyone xx

Nickel45 · 16/02/2016 11:52

pixie hope little pixie is ok xx

woof Grin best be careful then!

KellyHb · 16/02/2016 12:09

Are you getting a swanky kitchen island woof? If I had a kitchen bigger than a size of a shoebox, I would love one.

Thinking about BA's nuts is getting me through this testy dinnertime quite nicely Grin

moojangles · 16/02/2016 12:29

nickel. it's sooo busy! DH & I usually have chips down Sea Life centre end and walk to Three Shells for doughnuts. Off to the Cliff's Pavillion tonight. Hope DS taking care if you.
Thanks for the warning woof.

cjwoofwoof · 16/02/2016 14:09

Hope you're feeling better Nick now Dr Nicklet is on the case, bless him. mooj enjoy your day in the sunshine.

Alas BAs warning has come a tad late as my food cupboards have all been emptied and I had to chew on something...

Not enough room for a big enough island kel but I am having a curved breakfast bar that's uncannily about CJs body length for all my eating requirements, nuts or otherwise Grin

AT has just decided to scythe my carcasses rather than use his chopper, which may well take less time but won't be half as enjoyable Wink

KellyHb · 16/02/2016 19:58

Haha woof. Hopefully AT will be around when something needs doing with my kitchen carcasses later in the year fingers crossed, his chopper too. Grin

Off to my friends house now who's having a baby this year and I've sorted out a pushchair I'm giving her and other baby things. I got quite emotional funnily enough thinking of the baby memories but it didn't last long as I love a good clear out Grin

MaddieMoo82 · 16/02/2016 20:50

Ah kelly that's nice of you! I'm storing DSs stuff in the loft just incase of the very slim chance we have another, but unlikely. Ds is at nursery for 9hrs tomorrow and I'm quite excited about clearing out my wardrobe (no euphemism intended) Wink

Onlygirljen · 16/02/2016 21:11

Evening all. Thanks to everyone re the ff update. Hope pixie jr is on the mend, and that things are improving for you mads.

I've only just started to accept that I should get rid of our baby stuff. It's all in the attic gathering dust Confused. It's been on my mind that if I want to have another I should do it before it's too late, but hell would freeze over before dh would agree to it it's not likely after the trials of a difficult pregnancy with the youngest! And I doubt I'd cope if I produced yet another non-sleeper (surely not possible after 2 in a row??)

Oh and I might have known woof would snaffle all of BA's nuts before the rest of us got a chance...

KellyHb · 16/02/2016 21:41

Well am back and managed to give a fond farewell to stuf without aquivering lip. But when I saw my friends latest scan picture, there was the odd tear I must admit. Hmm

mads we've just got cots, double pushchairs and everything in the loft and while I've managed to get DH motivated to have a sort out, I'm taking advantage of it. Trouble is, having time to put them all on eBay, Gumtree or somewhere.

jen my friend's worried that this next one night be a non-sleeper as her first one was such a fab sleeper.

pixieg1rl · 16/02/2016 21:45

I've got one that wakes screaming every 45 minutes if you want to come down here and relive the newborn years jen
