I think i'm the wrong shape for long jumpers unfortunately, big bum but small waist and boobs, they're either going to be too tight in one area or too baggy in another Still might be tempted by the guinea piggle though if it gets reduced!

Has everyone else finished work now apart from me? Its been very quiet on here... Hope CMD managed to get her flight OK last night!

Morning all!

I am home in Ireland. My parents also got back at 4.30am this morning. The main thing is we are all here

Lara - congrats! Well done to you. What a lovely early Xmas gift

Flower - I also think you should go to the doctor. The chances are the longer you leave it, the worse it will become. You are still very much grieving your friend but you don't want the panic attacks to become a normal thing. Hope you are okay

Dinah - good idea to buy stuff in the sales. It will motivate you for the house as you will want to put your lovely stuff in your own house

Ooh the Oasis sales - wish I could fit into some of their clothes but sadly they have no maternity. Oasis is one of my favourite shops!

Glad you're all safe and well CMD! Bet you could have had a nice big glass of vino by the time you got there!! Have a lovely relaxing time - is it snowy in Dublin? My Irish friends are always moaning it never snows there.

Hi Tete,

How are you? Are you lured by the Oasis sales?

Yep - I was wishing I could have a glass or 2 of wine. OH told me to have a beer but I can't bear the thoughts of the alcohol (even one drink) going to the baby. I feel guilty enough as it is with eating chocolate and drinking coke!

Dublin is v frosty but no snow. I have had my fill in Belgium so not bothered but when I used to live here we used to be so disappointed that everywhere else would get it and we didn't!

I thought Guinness was meant to be good for babies? I'm sure my granny used to have the odd one when she was pregnant with all her children - but then she is a big fan of the stuff!

Bit tempted by the Oasis sale, but everything seems very expensive. The main store near me shut down a while back and I never seem to visit the concession, but I'm sure they never used to charge £55 for a pair of jeans?! I love this dress in Coast but it's still too expensive even in the sale!

Aww Dinah - tempting us with the Kurt Geiger!!! Just about resisted 3 pairs of Solea shoes although the discounts were great.

CMD - so pleased for you that you got home okay, and also your Mum and Dad too. Let Christmas begin!

Flower - I am so sorry to hear about your car and that you're not feeling so good. I think it would be good to go to the Dr and perhaps ask to be put on the waiting list for some counselling. It's a really tough thing to lose a friend in this way. The waiting list takes aaages so if you don't need the appointment by the time it comes you could always cancel?

Thanks for the best wishes about the scholarship 2009 was the best year of my life so far.

Oooh, it is, it warms the cockles of me heart!

Feeling quite festive and end of termish today, it's our work Christmas dinner today (in the canteen!) and we're doing Secret Santa so that should be fun. We've also not got much to do as we're on wind down which isn't great as we've got even less to do tomorrow so we're going to be really bored... at least until 5pm when we have the system clear down to do so there's no hope of sneaking away early!
