    My pre-unlimited text bills were very scary indeed! _pale_ :o:(

    Yup, seen it SM. You stopping there? Hasn't everyone who's seen you suggested you do? ;) Have you tried all the clothes on that you wanted to be able to wear?

    Ooooooooooooooooohh 2 1/2 hours to our anniversary!

    We're going to a chain steakhouse instead of either of the two first choices or the push-the-boat-out one we checked - so the money we save on babysitter and dinner we'll spend on dinner another time. Or on something else. That'll be ok too.

    I just called my parents, and everything was fine till my mother heard OH in the background, then she couldn't get off the phone quick enough. It's not like pretending he doesn't exist is going to make him go away :(

    Edit: my phone bill is always under €20, except the month after Molly was born, when I spent an hour on the phone to the UK and then texted all my friends - that month was €70.

    Glam, mine's never crashed on me, but if I let the battery completely die or have to switch it off for any reason (hospital/dentist are usually the only times!), it is so full of pics and texts (approx 9k atm :o) it takes an age to get back up to speed and let me send or read a text msg :(

    Could be because I dropped it down the loo :o

    9K :eek::eek:

    BTW Sami is bringing squidgy hugs for Rhys from me & Jack :)

    SM - I think I have some mini ice-cream cones in the bottom of the freezer!!!! You star!!!!!!!!!! :kisses3:

    Not long til we meet up :j

    :rotfl: Yup, that might have done it! :p

    I did have a clear out of sent msgs. Got rid of everything pre-Rhys and all the insignificant ones, but all of the sent ones tell the story of Rhys in hospital (like when I was txting Sami for her to update everyone :o). Got it on my to do list to find the cable this weekend so I can transfer them all to the laptop and save/print them for the memory box - how very 21st century! ;)

    Thankyou.. we shall send some back ;)

    Listen to him ;) Like I said before, not very MSE to lose so much you need a whole new wardrobe (trust me! *rolleyes*)

    I've just booked the hotel for my best friend's Hen! I'm so excited (although I've already paid for it so I hope everyone coughs up).

    I'm worried I'm going to be a lightweight though as I just don't drink anymore. Better get practising....
