  • Evening all.

    Well, where to start-wonderful news Cat. I'm so pleased things went well.

    Toto-hang in there hun, not much longer now-I would have liked a home birth...

    BB-go get 'em Tiger!

    Lou-that's poo about the Focus Group hun, but I think it's a good thing you are resting instead.

    My funny news for today? DH text me to say he'd been sick about 6-7 times on the ferry to Dublin... LOL! I tried to sound concerned but was laughing really...evil I am!

    When I got home last night I noticed that my FIl had given the kids squash to go to bed with (which is fine) but that it looked VERY strong...I took a sip and he hadn't diluted it AT ALL! EEK! And DS drank a whole glass of it! I had to call today and explain and felt horrible about it as they are so good to us.


    Oh-Jinks, you're welcome to Thanksgiving tea on Sunday if you want hun.

    My childminder did a lovely card with the kids today wishing us a Happy Canadian Thanksgiving. Isnt that sweet?

    Well I got accepted and even had a phone call tonight to confirm that I had downloaded the software and it was working OK............I then went to log in at the time they said and the message read "Room Now Closed"

    I rang them up and they said that they oversubscribe on the members they ask and once they have the number of people in the room they close it..........the rest !!!!!! out. Something they did not mention may happen:mad:

    Tut, that's bad. Last time I did one of them they tried to throw me out because my internet connection was going a bit slow and apparently that was 'disrupting the group' - the techie person was a bit rude really. I managed to hang on in there, and then it took them about 3 months to pay me! :rolleyes:

    Skint - yeah it's funny that they don't mention "stop buying magazines"... :rotfl:
