  • Hi all again,

    Apologies for my bit too much info again yesterday, I'll introduce myself properly now (and hope no-one from work is on here)...

    I had to hurry off yesterday as we'd reached the end of our interent limit for the month (not sure what it is called but we use something that looks like a memory stick) that we plug into the laptop, which gives us about 200+ internet hours per month...it was telling us yesterday we had nearly fully run out of time (downloads or something I think), so I had to go, and play solitaire instead of comping....and it was month end...oh well, I think I've done all the ones I want (only enter for stuff I want or would be lovely pressies for someone)..

    I did tell a little white lie yesterday (I think I said DH) - we're not really married, thats the one thing we've got left to do. It's me, OH and our little girl who was 3 very recently. We both work full time while our little girl goes to nursery, which she loves. We both work in the public sector (OH in an admin role, and I'm an accountant)...after we had our baby, I always said getting a family house was the most important thing, so we used all our savings for that. We're now saving for the wedding, which we think will be abroad...originally OH was keen on Mexico, but now after reading reviews on Trip Adviser he says a lot of people are saying beaches destroyed by recent hurricanes...I'm letting him do the research (which is why our internet time/memory is getting eaten up) because a lot of the hotel websites have big pictures/maybe a video thing on...


    Ooops I'm rabbitting..

    Mad Gemma - how many hours left now?? Best of luck with the move, and I hope everything goes well

    Hope everyone enjoyed their dinners/naughty food last night...OH did lasagne which was delicious..

  • Morning to all you other early birds...I must admit I'm never normally up this early at a weekend

    Thanks for your suggestions princess and nips..Florida is one of the places OH is in the process of looking at...princesspixiedust, where you are going looks lovely - and October must be a great time to go, as you can look forward all summer, and the nights will be starting to get dark here then..

    I worked once as a camp counsellor in America (on an all girls summer camp) - based in New York..a few of us then travelled down to Florida and worked our way up - it was a great summer..

    nips - how old is your ds? (apologies if I've missed it)...I love how fearless little ones are - the closest I'll get to a trampoline is on the sonic olympics game on the wii

    stressedaah - as a fellow newbie, welcome

    no chance of a lie in for me, although dh gets lie ins all the time! i would have chosen florida as my choice for a wedding if we had thought more about it:D

    loads of lovely places out there, basically you can get married anywhere so long as you have the license to get married, Leu Gardens is a great place and the firm fave is of course disney, but thats really really expensive:eek: been looking in to renewing our vows out there, although dont think i'll bother now:rotfl::rotfl:
  • been looking in to renewing our vows out there, although dont think i'll bother now:rotfl::rotfl:

    That made me smile...how many years have you been married?? where did you get married??

    I must admit we occassionally have disagreements over how much time I spend on the laptop comping at night, but we've had some very lucky wins :D
