Luc, I have FOUR exams to do in December now! But I have been very good and timetable all my revision in between now and then. Its a lovely little coloured in spreadsheet :rotfl: amazing what gets done when you have no kids around.

I think its a bit of an old wives tale that said cats were attracted to the smell of milk on a baby and would sit on their faces and smother them, but I had four cats when mine were little and the only one who ever went near the babies was my big black cat (thats what she was called) who just used to get in the cot with the baby and sleep next to her. I think she liked the warmth. If its really what you want there is no real reason not to but I would wait until beany is a toddler and you can share the pleasure of a kitten together, but only my opinion...

Louise, good to hear you are back at work (I think!) hope you get the job - and bunny for that matter. I have today ordered a book - four secrets to liking your work - you may not need to quit to get the job you want?:rotfl: Hope its good.:T

The kitten is really for me.

The plan is to choose a puppy with Bean once he/she's old enough to enjoy it.

Also, to consider is that a heck of a lot of kids have asthma/pet allergies. Best to wait till he/she is toddling for pets

Oh crapola - hadn't thought of that!!!! Would be more heart breaking to have to give kitten awaythan not to have her in the first place...

Hi all

Haven't been around for a while as I was feeling too stressed with the house sale, but good news.....we exchanged on Friday and we move on 29th.

OH and I are going to rent separate properties (long story, but hopefully it will save our relationship). We will be living 2 roads (10 mins walk) from each other, and I am really really looking forward to having my own space.

Need to have a long read on here to catch up with the goss. Not looking forward to being without internet for 5 days after I move, but can lurk at work if I'm crafty.

Hope everyone is well.

i'm back from my tutor briefing. Was all fine I felt like I already knew most of it because it was stuff I already knew from working there anyway.

I feel a bit yuck though today. I feel like I'm running to stand still. I don't think staying up until 2 this morning helped though!

That's really good news about the house exchanging and I hope the relationship works out.

Fantastic news about the house sale Suze, and I kind of understand what you mean about living seperately - I sometimes think it would be a good thing for me and hubby too... :rotfl:
