  • we're going MH as town is pants and MH dont offer an online option so going to go down and just ask and hand in cvs ... the old fashion way :D ...

    cant stop gotta leave soon but im no where near ready .. also who wants my son hes been moaning on and off since 3am i think his teeth are upsetting him ..


    *stronger vibes* to poppie ...

    Happy birthday pinkpig xxxx

    Hi SM. As a retail manager can I offer a tip? Anywhere that takes a CV and shows some interest, give them a ring in a couple of days to remind them and offer to come in for a chat/interview. I sometimes get handed dozens of CVs a week, but if someone follows up with a phonecall I'm always very impressed and it reminds me to invite them in as sometimes these things end up at the bottom of the to-do list on a busy day.

    Yay for Poppie's poop!

    I don't think there's any way to split the group in two- we'd end up with a thread each if we did that since we all have our own styles and views on different things, and all with differing strengths of conviction.

    Tara, my thoughts are with you all, and I am glad to hear all bodily functions are working. x
    MFD and SS sorry to hear OH's have been so ill, I hope they mend quickly for you. x
    Happy Birthday PP.x
    FG, much love sent to you as I know it is all so hard. xx
    Oscar is now awake 10pm - 9.30 am, must have worn him out yesterday.

    Lovely to see you FairyDawn, I miss you when you don't post. You are lovely.

    Thanks for thinking of me, I appreciate it. In a bit of a pickle really, not sure what to do.

    I'm certainly not a perfect Mummy, and don't think I am, otherwise I wouldn't be tempted to walk up to a complete stranger and ask them to take my baby away, because I don't want to do it anymore :o

    Happy brithday Pinkpig _party__party__party__party__party_

    SM - good luck job hunting

    Tara - YAY for poop and don't leave the thread missus :naughty:

    I certainly don't think the thread should be split - how on earth would you do it?! Plus I'd miss you all too much - if we were all doing the same thing then life would be boring!

    Susan - I am really sorry you are leaving for a bit. As I said in my PM to you, I think you are always really fair and non-judgemental in your posts on both this thread and that damn other thread! :mad:

    MFD - Hugs to you, hope DH has a swift recovery - ditto to Sugar :grouphug:

    I need to be out the house in an hour and I'm still in bed! Jack woke at 3am AGAIN so I spent an hour getting him back to sleep (don't want that becoming a habit!) and then he woke at 5am for a feed but was very chatty when I put him back to bed so I didn't fall asleep til 6am even though I put the monitor on mute :shhh: :o Then OH was up at 6.30am and Jack woke at 8am YAWN :shocked:

    Sorry :o I feel terrible for being so melodramatic when I don't actually have anything to be depressed about, when other people are doing a super job of being brave.

    I really don't feel there's any need to split down the middle. Just because I do things some people may not it doesn't mean I don't want to be included in their 'group'. If anything it brings together lots of different ideas and experiences which, if looked at with a mature attitude will be taken on board and considered before making an individual choice.

    That's it now, I resign from the whole discussion about it, it's gone on too long for me.

    Not that brave, but I have my children at home to think about too. They struggled with me away so I need to make a fuss of them. It's hard to find a balance as I nearly went back up to Bristol at midnight but realised that Ben needed me here so I go back on Friday, then Sunday. Maddy was ok it was more me that needed her. Very hard with lots of children to try and get things right. :o
