    Yeah I first noticed it when they had that £30 voucher thing but it was still full price then and way too expensive! That's a lovely one Birdie I can see you in it, but it is a lot! Yeah, did you ever decide what was happening with your bridesmaid?

    CMD does that mean the baby's only little?

    It's hard to tell. It has been measuring average all the way through so I am expecting between 7 1/2lbs - 8lbs. It just means I haven't retained a lot of fluid. They checked the amniotic fluid at the scan last week and it was perfect so I am just lucky I guess!

    Had the hospital tour today and while we were waiting in reception a woman came in and she was in labour. It was enough to put anyone broody off. Scared the life out of me :eek:

    You live in Bristol don't you?? Just seen this from the boots thread. Thought it was a big of a coincidence!

    Ooh that is a bit of a coincidence! That's so selfish of people to do that. I'd have liked one for my Mum's birthday!

    My step-mum is in hospital! So we're just waiting for the phone call now to say the baby is here! Ah I'm so excited! :D

    I haven't had a chance to speak to my friend about it yet. Maybe once she knows we're serious and we're booking it she'll tell me if she actually wants to come or not.

    Good idea about the travel agents Dinah! We can only book our bit through Thomsons as they're the cheapest travel agents who do holidays to the hotel we want. Oddly enough out of the 3 hotels on the complex most travel agents do holidays to 2 of them but not the Riu Bachata which is where we want to stay (mainly because we get the wedding for free if we stay there!) so we're limited. Thomson's only fly out on Tuesdays but Thomas Cook go on Satudays so our guests can choose the best day for them to go. I think if we don't get it booked we'll definitely get a price.

    Scary about the woman in labour CMD! I hope your baby comes out with no big drama and pain!

    Ooooh, exciting Zig!!!!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Evening,

    Finally nightshifts over. Have done another 2 reviews on dooyoo to keep the points coming in. Doing the TV shows is a very easy way to up the points.

    I think there is going ot be £50 at the end of the month, if so I will use it to pay off Mrs Poolie. Started looking at what to do once all cleared. At the moment I put £400 into a savings account which is used during the month but thinking I could save £250 per month into a monthly savings account with 4.17% NET pa.

    Would mean I would have £250/£300 for myself. If I don't use that I could have another savings account for putting money into either the current savings used during the month or another account (which Mrs Poolie will be able to see) which I think is a better idea.

    Might get the bank to give us a financial overview just to see where we are as being so close is hard plus trying to plan without know confirmed numbers for a couple of months from my payslip due to extra (Jan - I get my gym benefit, June - Bonus - Will have a better idea once I have had my performance review)

    Awww!!! And Quinn is such a cute name too. Major congrats to your Dad & Stepmum!

    I feel so sad. Just bought one of those Jedward 'We've got it' tshirts from Zavvi. Was only £2, and I can wear it at work to completely pee off the guy I work with as he hates them. Which is worth way more than £2 itself :D
