    Thanks for all the lovley comments on my card and cakes i have tons more pics to put on but didn't have the time. I will up date my blog and facebook fan page in a bit and will have to put my cakes on my facebook shop but they aren't the easiest thing to post.

    Congrats granny giggle lol, hope your daugther is getting on ok

    We went to see my friends new baby she is so lucky as she has quick births, she was fast asleep when her waters broke and she couldn't even get down stairs as the head was already crowning. Ambo came and they wanted to deliver on the bed as they said one push and baby would be out but she refused and wouldn't push they just got her to hospital and she had the baby.

    Another friend of ours had her little girl and she was so quick she was born in the waters still.
    Wish i could have had those sort of births.

    Am in grumbly mood today - had booked DD into out of school club for Friday - nothing said when I picked her up yesterday but they're now not opening on Friday - so have had to grovel at work to swap my day in :mad: OH has a meeting with the home office so he couldn't help :o

    All sorted now but not quite the point - I hope they aren't going to do this all the way through the summer holidays.

    Have posted a few bits for sale over on CP - stuff I know that I will never use.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Hello ladies.. :)
    Well, the weather has turned out really nice and warm.. just the weather you need for half term..
    Hope you are all well.. :D
    Giggle Hope you get some good news soon, how exciting for you.. :D
    Tomsmom Congratulations on your win.. :j
    Jowri There was not a lot in the local Dunelm to me... :(
    Gemm Hope this week isn't going as badly as you were dreading... :)

    I desperately need to tidy the study/tip... I can't find a thing.. papers all over the floor and table, an absolute disgrace.. tut tut.. :o
    But I need a brew to keep me going, I must go thru the equivalent to an urn a day.. but I don't drink alcohol, so this is my one vice.. ;)
    Oh and buying stash, but I am sure I am not alone on that one.. ..

    I am having an eye test tomorrow, I have found my eyes have deteriorated badly, the glasses I use at the mo are not good enough by any stretch of the imagination.. I have managed to get a free eye test voucher tho, so that will help a bit.. the money saved will go towards the glasses..
    Right, brew time.. :)

    paddington Glad you managed to get your childcare sorted. It must be very annoying when they do that and they must realise people rely on them for work. Have sent you a pm.


    OOOOh hassy you just reminded me i need to arrange an eye test too. Thank you
