    hi everyone,

    how exciting for tara and mm...hope you have a great time. i remember west coast coolers from back home, my mum and her friend used to drink them.

    oh, i found the ginger beer, but haven't got around to drinking it. too stressed out the first night to have it (when i shoud have) and then forgot all about it last night.

    Hello :)

    On the subject of bras, I don't have much luck with them...I am a funny shape and size. Since having Elliot they are just deflated and i hate them! I have to wear bras that have a bit of padding/shape as they need some help. I went to debenhams again last time to be measured (sadly no way big enough for bravissimo etc).

    keely.

    DKAM - agree about the focus. We used to have a V reg purple one (DH swears it was blue though) and it was great. Sturdy and reliable.

    Getting ready for Caitlyns first session at the childminders this afternoon. I feel nervous! When I leave I think I'm going to go to a garden centre or something - I don;t like the idea of coming back to an empty house, even though there's loads I could be doing!

    Hi girls, I've just had some bad news and I can't quite get my head around it :(
    My old manager died last night, he was only 28. Don't know the details but it was illness not accident.

    He was my manager for 2 yrs until last Feb when he moved stores.

    I only saw him a few weeks ago at the Bathgate store

    He has a wife and son :(

    :grouphug: I think it's always a bigger shock when someone young dies.

    Thanks girls, my dad died at 36.

    I've been told he was off work for a fortnight with some kind of chest complaint, then he died last night. Just seems such a waste.
    He was a good guy, handworking and provided for his family

    so sorry to hear that csh.

    always tragic in any event, and even more so when so young and with a family.

    thinking of you and also his family
