    Excellent news about Poppie - what a relief it must be that the op. is over and she's a little strong one. :T:T:T

    And excellent news about the insurance SS. (But :( that you'll have to use it). Insurance is one of those things that you need to pay for, but hope you won't ever need to use iykwim! :)


    ETA: Right, i'm off to school, then tea, then gymnastics. (Hopefully without a trip to collect DS from school in between).

    right tara needs our help ... well more like her SIL does ...

    basically his work is refusing to pay PL as hes hasnt booked it (well dur he could plan this) and has been told if he wants it to take the forms in to work filled in to be sent off to be paid or hes pretty much screwed fo money for the next 2 weeks ...

    we know this is wrong but they need the info x

    Sorry SM but I don't know what you mean?
    He is not getting PL or He is getting it but he needs to fill in a form?

    ETA if its the latter then his employer is perfectly entitled to ask him to fill in a form I'm afraid

  • Gah - Hubby and I were supposed to be going to see Lee Mack on Friday and I had my SIL on standby in case hubby wasn't up to it.

    Hubby texted and said I should go with SIL and he would get other SIL to sit with him and Benjamin.

    So, like the dutiful wifey that I am, I texted back to say that I think I might want to stay at home and be with him instead...


    ...and he texted so say I should get the tickets on ebay ASAP :(


    Gah - way to backfire :(

    Tell him they're not even going for the cover price at the moment so you'll bring him back a Tshirt.

    Yay for Poppie!!

    I'm so relieved about the insurance, but still have to find out what's going on and see what the story is about emergency leave from work. Hmph.

    About PL - if he already has the forms he should ask if he can fax them before (recorded) sending the originals. It's unrealistic to expect him to leave the baby to go into work. Unless he has to go into work to get them in which case he may as well fill them in there and leave again.

    Its just a mother and baby group for babies up to 12mths. Its run by the HV's, you get tea and scones and stuff yum yum.
    They bring the scales every week for the ones who don't go to baby clinic on a Thursday.
    Massage is tomorrow and I've found a new group to try on Wednesday where you get bacon rolls for breakfast!!!

    I forget people can't read my mind lol

    I'd be going to a group you can get bacon rolls in :T

    We went to talk about contrception with a nurse which was quite helpful but think we may just stick to condoms at the mo. As a bonus she did my smear test and gave me loads of free condoms :D I have left a pile where DH will see it when he gets home :D;)

    Not sure what is up with Tegan today shejust seems to be sleeping, not sure whether or not to wake her as worried she won't sleep tonight.But maybe she has a cold too and this is her way of dealing with it??! Will leave her till 4 then see
    Tegan Lily arrived 4 November 2009 (3 days late)

    Floyd Peter arrived 9th July 2011 (1 day early) :D
