    Morning all.

    Huge congrats to AM and SlS - pics of ryan are yummy by the way!

    Sorry guys just read through and did take it all in I promise but can hardly remember a thing!

    In a bit of a funny mood, its my due date tomorrow - which is great but I cant help feeling Im too calm about the whole thing and that because I am something wont go right. All perfectly normal I suppose and guessing its just hormones!

    Anyway I have tons to do so Im going to go and get it done!
    Hugs to all x x x

    I have to wear a bump band to hold a pair of maternity trousers up!

    Sami-Bee, thank you! Now I see a picture of them, I could make one from the myriad of spare buttons I have knocking about, obvious really, isn't it?!

    I didn't know TopShop did maternity clothes - wow! - but the bump band looks as is if it might do the trick! Although maybe I am deluding myself as to how big I won't get!!!!

    Off to do the weekly shop at Morrisons soon but thought I would share the below ink on a very beautiful wine that is on offer at mo for those who are still having the odd glass (a la moi) or those who want to stock up to celebrate when the baby is born. The wine is a red Rioja called Lagunilla Rioja Reserva



    Better Than Half Price Was £10.99 £5.44

    I think that you have to give up and wear mat pants by 6mths at the latest but I'm 33wks today and still fit in most of my pre preg tops :D the ones that were fitted or a bit tighter don't but anything that had a bit of room still fits and I look IMO HUGE! :p

    I've always worn fitted clothes so have had to buy everything but eBay has been fab for that. Also, my boobs have exploded :p

    Ickle don't worry I can often be seen big preg belly and toddler in tow pushing a trolley with a case or 2 of wine and a crate of beer :rotfl: I wouldn't mind but I don't even drink! :p

    My mum loves hardy's crest wine but will only get it when its half price so when I see it I get her a box or two but there is a new Hardy's called something like voyager and my mum n sis have said its GORGEOUS I remember it says something like "a sweet red wine" on the bottle and its only £2.99 in B&M if you have one local? xx
    The wine: (hover over voyage and click tri-varietal red)

    Hardy's Crest is nice, as is Isla Negra and Wolfblass :) My fave though is a rioja: faustino... the best one is the IV although I also have a couple of V and some VII - Gran Reserva ;) the IV and V are not cheap tho but I've been stashing them for a while hehehe

    edit - reminds me I ought to buy some more wine really... not necessarily for now but my collection is getting a bit low and I do use wine in cooking a lot and I refuse to use my expensive bottles for cooking :eek:
