    Don't mind at all! Will happily offer cake advice to anyone who wants it, just so long as they are not setting up a rival business in Leeds that is :rotfl:

    I'm sulking a bit at the moment actually, the oven in my new house isn't as good as the one in my old house. The old one was a fan oven and this is a normal one, and I can't work out what the different settings mean! It's just annoying me now. It's not too bad when I only have stuff on 1 shelf, but if I want to do 2 trays of cupcakes at once, which I do quite often, they cook really unevenly. I'd just do one tray at once but then it'd take me twice as long for each order and that's just no good!!

    And thanks for the "expert" tag!! Not sure I'd call myself an expert but thanks!!

    You must be with all the orders you get! Is it your full time job or do you another job and the cakes?

    I can't bake for !!!!!!! :o I make some wicked mini cheesecakes but that's about it!

    Woohoo thanks Glam, gonna tell OH he can zip it when I'm eating nuts now :)

    Oooh babies that are wriggly are usually boys? Ours moved a little, had its hand in its face, then gave a bit of a kick...Im 100% convinced it's a little boy though OH isn't quite so sure. We had a name debate yesterday - he hates every name I come up with, I like Marlow, Xavier, Gabriel...or for a girl I adore Emmeline & Lucille, he thinks they're weird and thinks Alex is the perfect name for either sex!! Bless him, I can just imagine this poor baby having 4 names in the end as we won't agree!

    I love the name Xavier, but OH hates it. I also liked Octavius lol.
    But we have both settled on Lily for a girl and keep changing the boy name. But so far its Harry.

    I just enjoyed a lovely frozen snickers bar :) Have to brush my teeth now before i go and sit next to OH, otherwise we'll be spending all night in hospital :rolleyes:

    Ooh we found another house to view, so we have to call them tomorrow morning before work. Yes im back to work after a lovely 2 weeks off sick :(

    Well i went for lunch with my mum, stepdad and siblings. I had a massive roast and afterwards i was so stuffed i couldn't move :o

    My little bro (who is 4 i think :p) kept saying he has a baby in his tummy to :D

    Earlier when you wer saying about what happened in June for us to conceive.. umm... well it was nice hot weather and i cant handle being in the heat so we had to stay in some days until it cooled down ;) :rotfl:

    We got another baby sleeping bag, was reduced to £3 in tesco. Its a summer one :) and a pack of free huggies with my voucher from my bounty pack.

    I might go and have a nap, all that eating has knackered me out :rotfl:

    Send one over next time you make them - I love cheesecake!! :D

    I work full time as an administrator in a college and it's very dull! I just do the cakes on the side for some extra cash. I'm hoping I'll be able to get enough orders in to allow me take the full 12 months off for ML.

    I'm thinking at the moment, that if I can build up the cake business enough I might be able to just go back to work part time, which would be fab! I'll have to wait and see how it goes though. Had my website up and running just over a year now so I'm now at the stage where I have booking from now up to about 12 months time.

    It was the Xavier & Octavius that gave it away!

    Your baby is going to have the coolest name EVER even baby Valentine (or VonDoom) on it's own is wicked!

    Lily Valentine - oh, I like that!!!

    We were trying to think of names that wouldn't have bad initials.

    Like Harry Issac Valentine... H.I.V lol.

    Dont think we're having a middle name though :)

    It will have Valentine as its surname, but the birth certificate will be my name and OH's name as the wedding isn't until june :D

    My OH always corrects me on stuff! All the same to me!

    OMG, Daniella Westbrook is going back into Eastenders as Sam Mitchell - I hate it when they change the actress and not the character but even worse when they change it back.

    Right, think if I have tea now it will see me through until brekkie (with pudding in between of course ;))
