    Right, I've just popped on as I'm having a busy day and still loads to do.

    Led worship at church this morning, then we went to John Lewis to exchange a bread bin that had warped (actually cos I put it next to the rad but they didn't need to know that!) and then we got distracted by a lovely £25 porcelain roasting pan so we bought that as well :o then came home, cooked lunch and OH watched the footie while I did work, proper work :(

    I've now done three hours of it and am having a break while I cook the roast dinner and then I have probably about another 5-6 of work and a 9am deadline!

    Not sure what is best - stay up late till it's one, or work this evening and go to bed as normal, then get up super-early to finish off?

    I can only do about three hours without a break as it's copyediting and I have to refresh my eyes and brain after a while.

    I keep reminding myself it is £25 an hour otherwise I'd go mad!

    I personally would hate to have my b-day around Christmas (poor bean! :p). I love my summer bday because then it's less between presents! hahahahah

    Skinty, I'd stay up and get it finished tonight. I know you'll be knackered, but at least you will be able to go to bed and not have to worry about getting up earlier and tackling it then! :)

    Jamie was due on 17 December but decided he wanted to wait until after Christmas! I had to open all his xmas gifts on his behalf :rotfl:.

    I really didn't mind what day he chose as long as it wasn't Christmas Day itself ;).

    my birthdays in 4 weeks ... i hate zoes being so close to xmas but it gives me a full 12 months to plan and save :D x
    :)Still searching .....:)
  • My brother's b-day is 3rd Jan, which I think is just about far enough away from Christmas. My step-sister's is the 24th Dec which I think must suck, but she doesn't mind!

    Just phoned my dad and told him the news so close family all know. It feels like a huge relief and they are all thrilled. I just feel so much better for telling him. How silly is that? I'm 26, married, a home-owner and was scared about telling my Dad I'm pregnant! Bloomin pregnancy hormones.

    Planning to watch Come Dine with Me on C4+1 in a bit as apparently it's a good'un. I just love that show!

    Right, Im not asking for medical advice..just want to compare. At my 12 week scan,baby measured 55mm. All the websites and info Ive read about babys development at that stage seem to suggest a larger measurement is normal?

    I'll let you know tomorrow :j:j:j 12-wk scan at 11:30am :j:j:j
