    Kisses for the slingy ladies - I'll be local to Warrington for a week or so over Christmas, would it be too much to hope that there'll be a meet somewhere from the 22nd Dec. - 2nd Jan.?
    ...I hope I didn't miss anything.
    aww if we continue on the same day as now the december one would be on the 21st :doh:
    Maybe we could all just go for a drinky-pooh though :D

    are you originally from these parts?

    Thank-you ladies, you're all lovely. I'm currently a 14 so nowhere near your fantastic size 8 SS.:o BF boobs will keep me there for a while too, still they'll make a lovely cleavage in a low dress :rotfl:MIL would be horrified. Thank-you too Weezl. I would love a dress in a completely different colour to the norm!

    ooh I'd never spotted the pattern Susan :o

    Weezl do a bit of both? I'd say if you make a nice sign for it with a description people will be tempted bye both. I'd suggest sticking with raisins in the RR to be safe maybe??
    I'm fussy and don't like most dried fruit and it seams quite common but I do like raisins. (my personal choice would be rr because I'm allergic to oats :))

    nothing like a tight deadline to motivate you!

    Wow, It's beautiful, as are you :) Did you sew until the wee small hours the night before? :rotfl:
    I did do a few final bits the day before but that was only because the previous day I was helping OH move house. I got married two weeks after my PGCE finished so didn't have time to start it till then. I spent six full days on it plus a little bit on the day before so it took a total of about fifty hours.

    PS I'd spotted you don't post on a sunday susan, but was never sure if it's more through being busy at church, or if you try to keep sunday as a special day without normal weekly activities (like us lot!)
    We observe Sunday as a day of rest so we only do everyday things which are necessary (e.g. only cook food we need to eat on that day rather than do a big batch cook, only do essential cleaning like if we spill something on the floor etc.) If we have spare time we would do things like read the Bible or Christian books/newspapers/magazines or discuss Christian things (because it is the Lord's day so the focus should be on Him). Occasionally I might go online on a Sunday to read a Christian article but generally I don't go on the computer on Sundays.

    I like your cake cutting one. Ours came out really badly because we were by a window and also OH didn't realise the purpose of cutting the cake was to get photos so he was to busy concentrating on cutting the cake while I tried to smile at the camera muttering, "You don't need to cut the cake, you're hurting my hand, you don't need to actually cut it, it's meant to be for the photo..."

    I did deliberately pick one that was fairly simple to make though. (Which is the kind of style I wanted anyway so my sewing limitations didn't stop me having what I wanted.)

    I put Maddy in her cot last night after her last feed, I put her in her sleeping bag but she woke at 2am and was a bit cold. Being the sweetheart she is I just lifted her in with me and she just went straight off, no dummy or fuss until 6am but I'm wondering what bedcovers everyone else is using at the moment?

    I can't even sew a button on without making a hash of it, your dress looks great Susan! I'd love to be able to do something like that.

    OH's mum is well into her crafts, she has about 4 spinning wheels at home, I find it all interesting but I'm useless, would love to learn to knit though, don't think my mum would appreciate a scarf for Xmas though!

    My mum is down here now, she popped into town then came by, she's asleep on my sofa and Keira is still asleep too :eek: She needs to get woken up, she is a right snoozer!

    Always been the same, I wasn't really exhausted or tired so much when she was a baby because I always got lots of sleep, I bet if I had another it would be polar opposite and only sleep 1hour a day.....
  • tara im going to but im giving philip one chance which he asked for then my turn and she thinks he can be evil she has no idea to the lengths i can go :D ... tara try a red dress i know someone who get married in an purple velvet dress with a cloak sounds awful but its was gorgeous i saw a silver and black dress that if i get married thats what im getting married in :D x
