    Karma

    I see it as I had to go through that to meet current wonderful OH and have my gorgeous princess Isla :o


    MOTM - the tshirt is off my brother and appeals to his sense of humour. He's bought her one which says 'does my nappy look big in this vest?' because I use cloth nappies so she looks like a fatty. Sorry to hear things have gone wrong again at the school, it had seemed like you were getting somewhere with them.

    I love Karma, good and bad. Your good Karma was getting your OH and Isla :cool:

    Always good to have a sense of humour. Think that's where I went wrong with the mothers of my girls - rude slogans and teaching my girls naughty things :rotfl:

    The school will work out. It may take a while, but it will and hopefully Karma will get them ;)

    I'm actually a regular poster on here but didn't want to admit to attempted suicide and self harm on a public forum which could be read by anyone. It hadn't occurred to me that anyone would think I was a troll but on reflection I can see it is quite an obvious conclusion to draw. If you want to know who I really am, you are welcome to PM me and I'll PM you back from my regular account.

    If you feel comfortable anonymous, not a problem surely?

    A troll causes trouble and you aren't causing any?

    Yay :j:j That'd be fab Tigs. If you've ever been in Asda Longsight or past it your at my house :D Feel free to pm me if you want to meet up sometime, you can try Andrew in my mei tai or stretchy sling too if you like.

    Went in once, didn't find it particularly "nice" (or am I a snob? I'm used to the huge Asda at Eastlands) :rotfl: But I drive past every fortnight to go to the hospital, that's my chosen route except at rush-hour. Will PM you.

    How about the list of names/babies goes at the beginning of the thread ie: 2nd post after the BG's post, and is kept upto date by PM. Like in the grocery threads on the os board. ??
    I think that sounds like a really good idea - that way it isn't repeated a million times throughout the thread and people can find it for reference really easily.

    :eek: Still snowy? Is that all over the country? It's warmer here now. Not warm, but not that cold either.
    It'll be snowy till March or so. I used to be able to see the Alps from my apartment, but then I moved into the city centre and now all I see from my bedroom window is the tree with the berries on in our courtyard.

    Hopefully the governor will be able to speak sense in a way they'll hear and understand.
    Hey, if I put Andrew's comfort blankie over his head, he goes quiet ... and not because he's being smothered either ... Am I a bad mommy?
    No, you're a genius!

    BeenThereDoneThat - it's totally understandable that you'd want to remain anonymous, and I'm sorry I gave the impression that I thought self-harm is always simple attention-seeking behaviour. Sometimes - almost every time I go to work - I wish it was. But we have a three-month waiting list for people whose self-harm is genuinely dangerous.

    It doesnt make you a snob, it makes you normal! I get home deliveries from Eastlands rather than shop in their, it truly is hell on earth :rotfl: I nip in to get fresh bits when Im inbetween big shops and Im 'the strange woman that carries her baby' :o Three checkout staff so far have said 'oh, x said there's a woman who carries her baby. It must be you!' while Im just trying to pay for my milk.

    Does anyone have any nice bread recipes for a breadmaker please, or can point me in the right direction? My aunties just given me her old one so I need inspiration. TIA

    :eek: Sooner you than me. Bit of a view comedown :o

    Hopefully the governor can help. He'll have to put everything in unjoined writing and add diagrams for them though, I think.
