    Well it looks like I may be a virtual grannie then!!! (too old for auntie!)

    Well done Mel (fingers crossed):)

    Just thinking - as its virtual perhaps I could be an auntie - noone would know - would they? :)

    We are all sisters here.. If I declared you as my virtual mother (and therefore granny) people would think there was favouritism haha :) Aunty it is ;)

    Hurry up mel - you got another test yet - dying to know>

    OK everyone - panic over, seen the consultant - he says he's happy do an episiotomy (cut) I don't have to have a c-section. And the midwife on duty (who was my midwife with Libby) said it isn't up to the physio - it's up to the doctors - so totally happy and relieved now. My husband just says 'I told you so' - his fave sentence.

    The prospect of making sure I am all organised this christmas for baby coming excites me so much - hope you can join in with this too mel

    p.s. those home bargains tests are always faint - if you weren't a line just wouldn't show- not even faintly.

    Mel get a clear blue forget money saving and find out. We are all dying to know. As for the other question you asked about shopping and convincing yourself you'll start money saving later, I do it all the time. Here is a regular scenario for me in shops:

    Shopaholic me: ''Ooooo pretty shoes/bag''

    Sensible me: ''You already have like a trillion shoes/bags''

    Shopaholic me: '' I know but I dont have THESE!!!!''

    Sensible me: ''Well I guess they are pretty and they are reduced to £xxxx from £xxxx so you are saving''

    Shopaholic me trots out of shop pleased as puch with new purchase and knows that she can always get sensible me to give in and let me buy them.

    Scatty glad you dont have to go in for the C section must be a weight off your mind

    Hello, just in from work and kids are all home from school, OH has dinner on and i am going to clean bathrooms and hoover my room and encourage kids to do theirs. This is my first night of the week where I don't turn into a taxi driver for children and can sit on my backside.

    I am going to look through my craft stuff and try and be creative.
    That is probably my extravagance....I see pretty craft things and buy them but just admire them rather than utilising!!
    I see the forum is closing for maintenance shortly, so shall go and be housewifely.... catch up later!

    Hello everyone
    I tried to put money in a jar and my step brother stole it all today :( Anyone think of any ways to get revenge on him? LOL
    So back to the start again and a new hiding place for the jar, I think!

    Phew !! Got my few days away booked - what a slow, slow website Travelodge is.........seemed to take forever. Still, we;ve not got 4 days away on the south coast near my son in August so something to look forward to.
    Halfway through doing it and I get phone call from doctors surgery -had blood test this morning and they had results back already !! Nothing to worry about, says the nice lady, but your GP wants you to make an appt to discuss it !!!!!!!:eek: Well, if all is clear there's nothing to discuss is there so now I'm worrying about that:eek: I've got appt. next Thursday anyway for full medical so nice lady says thats ok and he'll go through it with me then. Go through it with me ???? Starts to sound even worse !!! Still, suppose if it was really really bad he'd ask me to go as emergency appy.(he's booked up all this week and next now)
    Ain't there always something......................:confused:

    Mel - have you done it????? I mean the test obviously you must ha...................... ****gets out spade then puts hands over eyes as TMI*** :rotfl::rotfl:

    Spending money than feeling guilty? deffo - OH has told me I mustn't buy any more craft stuff but he's going to Spain for the weekend with his mates in June - where am I going nowhere so asked him how much it was going to cost him - he said about £200 so said I could spend the same on craft stuff - he didn't get my logic - Suppose it's coz beer won't take up any space :rotfl:.

    Mary - how about santa stop here signs?
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
