    Elle - thanks, hope she is ok.
    Beenie - glad you are not offended - clearly you can do whatever you want, but I hate to think of you falling for him if he is as bad as he sounds.

    I thought everyone was ignoring me for a minute! Going to bed now. Catch up with you all another time. x

    Wooo! we have snow!!

    Well it's a bit rubbish actually as I wanted us all to go out somewhere today as it's DH's only day off!

    Beenie - you've come so far, I know it's really hard on your own, but I feel that you'd just be taking a step back and looking after 3 dependents again instead of 2, only to find yourself in the same situation in a few months. I hope you don't think I'm interfering, it's your choice after all :)

    My dad talks of 'stotties' but I don't think we've ever had them down here? But my Nan still makes her own pease pudding, in her old stockings. :eek:

    I make pease pudding, but in the slow cooker, not stockings!

    I have no idea what a savaloy is though?? I've hear that chant/song oi oi savaloy though :rotfl:

    It's like a processed spicy sausage, bit like a frankfurter. They sell them in butchers and chip shops here.

    It's freezing here this morning. My thermometer says it's -3.5°C in the garden. Was out with the dogs yesterday afternoon and it was clear and sunny, and it felt really warm. Was talking to a man and we were hoping it was the start of spring - guess not!

    Got a plumber coming out this morning to give a quote on the bathroom for moving the toilet and pipes. The pipes in the bathroom are such a mess, we need professional help to sort it all out. Before we ripped stuff out, we had a sort of long wooden box going along behind the sink with the pipes in, so we are going to see if we can get them buried under the floorboards like in the other bathroom as it looks so much neater.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Weezl If you visit in the night, or first thing, as you do :D, did you see MFD ask if Fergus might want the MSE PT musical happy birthday bib before Benjamin has it? If he does, pass my fairies your details. ;)

    3 that's very sweet of you, thanks :)

    But I think I'm going to have my hands so full that I'll miss my window on getting it to Benjamin, and I know MFD would like it, so I'd like Benjamin to get it in plenty of time :)


    MFD the very first thing you ever said to me on the parent thread was to challenge me to a race, do you remember?! ;)

    I think xmaslolly might be from Dudley but I might have made that up!

    bad night again - ended up giving him a bottle at 5.30am. Might go back to the dream feed because maybe he's not getting enough during the day.

    wasn't drunk last night after my bottle of wine but I have such a bad head!

    We have snow! Will now have a whole day of 'If it snows anymore we can't go to work' I hope it goes because I have plans with Sami tomorrow!

    Where does the time go? :think:
  • I'm miles away from everyone and i still havent found anyone on here from near me or even in the west midlands :(

    xmaslolly, I don't know where you live but I am in the West Midlands - on the Herefordshire/Gloucestershire border.....


    We have had snow for a couple of days now :D This is the view this morning out of the nursery window

    I would have thought it'll be the same csh? It wouldn't make me more or less inclined to go cos it was mother's day - if I'm after a bargain then mother's day wouldn't stop me!
