    Where are all the smileys

    SF - good luck with the no smoking - I told Wayne that he had to give up or I'd tell his son/daughter that daddy was a selfish git who'd rather die than give up smoking and spend time with his child (yes I am THAT biatchy and I think Wayne didn't know whether or not I was bluffing)... but he's now gone two and a half weeks without smoking! It is hard though - so bloody good luck hun.

    Sammy - hope you have a wonderful holiday.

    RS - hope you feel better soon

    Luc - you're evil I really want a hot chocolate and danish (you can keep the pecan maple I really like the custard ones but I guess they're a no-no cos of the eggs

    Thanks Cat.. ooh custard.. I do like the pecan ones but my fave are the apricot jam ones :p

    Pecan ones are my faves - but has to be slightly warm from the oven stil (fussy - moi?!:p )

    Got that wedding reception tomorrow night. Found a dress in the back of the cupboard that actually accommodates my boobs and bump (its kind of a 1950s tea dress style - a bit like the style Bree wore a lot in Desparate Housewives - so has lots of pleats to accommodate the expansion:o ). Its more a day dress but I've got a black satin sash (borrowed from another party dress) to jazz it up with and I treated myself to some black beads and black dangly earrings so should fit nicely into 'smart casual' (was there ever a more vague term for a dress code:confused: ). A wrap, some red lippy and a swish of mascara should finish things off nicely:D

    Will presumably sleep most of Sunday to recharge energy levels as my stamina seems to be at zero at the moment...:rotfl:

    I'm being all good and munching my fruit pieces... I bought an apple snack pack and grape snack pack from Asda for 20p each this morning (as well as a pack of mango and a pack of pineapple). For lunch though I just HAD to buy some humous and black olives.

    For some reason I just can't eat enough fruit at the moment...
