  • Hi Rara and Pip's Mum CONGRATULATIONS on your new babies!!! :happyhear It's so lovely to hear that two new gorgeous little ones have arrived safely.

    Surfbabe, sorry to hear you have been ill and hope you feel better soon. Glad you don't have a heart prob - I have a hiatus hernia and it is really painful sometimes, so maybe it is that like they said. Take care.

    NSD today, so no change to go in :( Will try harder tomorrow!
