Caz, your sphereing experience is awful!! I was going to buy my mum one for her 60th next month but not now.

I take it your mum is young for her age? (or am I being totally ignorant )
if anyone is still crazy enough to do it after hearing Caz's story, try to find out how many goes you get, my mate got hers from boots I think and she got 3 goes but some others there had got it from somewhere else and they only got 2 goes

Lots of hugs for you Jillie xx

to encourage K to move about (crawl) we put down a baby blanket on the flooring. anyone got any other ideas of what we can use as its tends to slip everywhere when he starts to swing his legs in the air.

Jillie - so sorry hun xx



Elle - I don't know how to say this gently enough so please take this with the massive hug that it comes with. Do you think you are mixing up disappointment with OH with the strange mix of feelings you have in putting the year behind you? Maybe not mixing up but your feelings about your 'bad year' (your words) being mingled with your disappointment and making it worse?

As for making effort in the past...he never had a baby boy to occupy his nights in the past???


God I sound like an unfeeling cow but you know me well enough to know that I am saying it with the best of intention. And I know you well enough for you to tell me to b00ger off and practise my physcho babble on myself (or words to that effect)


I have just learned over the years that at some point you need to put things behind you (because whatever he does, he can't make this better at this point) and accept that he didn't do it to be hurtful, he was just thoughtless. If he was being intentionally spiteful then that would be different but he wasn't...was he???

I can play the woman scorned for years - I did in my last relationship (a LONG STORY!!) but in the end all I have is years of me thinking I was being hard-done-to and a fella who just couldn't change the past and make it right.

Compare him to Beenies delightful ex (sorry Beenie) and he is an absolute angel

it was my birthday and I damn well deserved more effort than he put in *stomps foot*

Indeed. I wonder if he'd planned to make very little effort and wind you up that there wasn't anything else, and now it's all backfired?
*benefit of the doubt*

OH is desperate to do it *rolleyes* but I'm hoping he only gets one go. One's enough!

Yes, MFD, I know what you're saying and you're right. It's just everything rolled one and the fact that my birthday was a chance for him to show his appreciation.. and it seems like he has none :cool:

I've cancelled the hotel. I want my birthday over with, it ends now, no point in dragging it (and all the bad feeling) out until the weekend which I won't enjoy anyway.

Like I say, over. No more whinging. Sorry to take up so much room with it

Am off to the dentist now..

Nope. She is your average 60 year old...


...but they do say that 60 is the new 40!!!


And 33 is the new 21 :cool:


Hubby had one of his employees here today digging up the patio (should I be worried!!!) and his wife had a premmie a few months ago. Was chatting to him about baby girl and how she is doing and thinking to myself (OMG - you are just a baby yourself!!). It is the first time I have met him and he is only about 25!!!

*is officially old*

Can you just tell him the top sentence? Not about me being right (he knows that I always am ) but the bit that it is just a big bad year rolled into 1 and your birthday was his opportunity to say how special you are and how well you have done and he missed it.

He probably didn't realise that you had built it up.


We love you and think you are ace and brilliant and we hope that we have been a teeny weeny bit of support to you in the last year :A xxx
