  • Evening ladies!

    We spent a lovely day in a packed city centre today. Happened to bump into my fave mummy friend in Beatties Cafe so had lunch and a good old chinwag :D

    Benjamin flatly refused to eat anything at lunchtime :( wouldn't even put anything in his mouth until after I smeared his gums in Calgel, poor babba. Meanwhile his little friend (who is 7 months older but smaller!!) gobbled down his emergency breadsticks like there was no tomorrow. I knew I should have had a ciabatta but didn't because the intention was to share.

    Bought my turkey from the butchers, along with a lovely beef joint.

    Bought hubby an expensive jacket in a panic-buy-scenario :o I hope he likes it!

    I hope everyone else is okay. xxx


    Anybody know anything about iPods? Hubby is trying to put some songs on DSS's so he has something to play straight away but the songs don't seem to show up on the iPod :confused:

    i think we're having a dominoes tonight too :dance: all we could have had was grilled chicken and chips but i forgot to defrost the chicken! i have actually remembered that we do have frozen sausages but after OH's kind offer of getting a dominos in i might have to decline to tell him about my freezer find...

    i wonder if SS has managed to get to the UK yet, or if she has been horrendously delayed!

    I've just written my to-do list... It's a side and a half of A4 :( Best get cracking!

    I did post fairy post earlier though (to SM, MM, Sami and Weezl). I used a "weigh it yourself and print a sticker" machine though so I hope I've done it right and you don't end up having to pay more to get them off the postie! :o

    thank you elle :A

    Oh well my dad replied, with about 4 words like "How is life treating you" "I'm okay, just got the flu"

    !!!!!!? Do I not deserve a bigger reply than 4 words? Bloody loser he is.

    Basically I just told him that I accidentally stumbled across him on FB and it was like looking at myself, said a few things about me, asked how he was doing in life, if he was married/more kids etc.

    He's divorced, still lives in Aberdeen and has no more kids (no suprise, he didn't ever want me)

    He probably thinks I'm after a Christmas present or something (He was like that, stopped working everytime my mum got in contact with the CSA, so he didn't have to pay) Wish I hadn't messaged him now, blatantly obvious, I'm just a nothing.

    Hey ho....
