  • Pah - no long hot relaxing bath for me. Am alternating between work and housework and ironing.

    At least I am back on the lappy though so it doesn't take me ages to post!

    Noises coming over the monitor - the little chappie better stay asleep for a while longer because he refused to nap this morning.


    pinknico - we still have a lego set to make with DSS from the christmas before last :eek: To be fair they are really big and fiddly and if Benjamin gets hold of them then all the pieces will go missing. Still - should really take B out of the way and let the big boys get on with it at some point.

    aless - I sent something to Australia the other day and the PO asked what it was and the first thing I thought of was Gift! :rotfl:
    She said You have to say what it is as they actually scan the package to see what's inside!

    Big hugs all round from me and the Jackmeister!

    Ed's teeth are amazing! I can't believe how many he has now and in such a short space of time - I got a big toothy grin on Thursday :D

    Did a MS job this morning and am lumbered with a big bulky item til Monday when I have to return it! Not happy!

    Also gotta wait in for my shopping to be delivered which is a pain cos its gorgeous here! Might just mow the lawn or something.

    OH gone to put my GG's on for the National - I always pick 3 horses! A really good one, a good one and an outsider. Think I've only ever won once in years!
    Fingers crossed I'll get a winner today!
    lol they need to know what it is as well as if it's a gift :p Krystal and I both got let off about £10 of customs charges on our threadless orders :cool: I'm gonna get some more threadless stuff actually it's lasted really well and I want THIS iphone cover while I'm at it :D

    what did you get from the MS? a chest of drawers?

    Which horses you gone for? I've got £5 each way on Arbor Supreme

    elle, Rhys was obviously staying up to make sure Daddy was coming home to look after you before he could go to sleep :)

    To save me from the man with the saw and the woman with the pruning shears who popped over the fence shortly afterwards, ya mean ;)

    I know you weren't asking me, but will tell anyway... I have £2 bets to win on five horses! :D Mon Mome, Don't Push It, Comply or Die, Hello Bud and My Will - selected at random on the basis of liking the names! :o

    Mel - I think most men find it impossible to ever see their mothers as less than perfect, look on the bright side, you have 3 boys that will always think you rule no matter what :D (I'm sure little girlie will too!!)
    Are you ever going to share the names you're thinking of?

    I thought that when I read SS post earlier..haha, I was thinking my boys best defend me to their last breath;)

    I would love to share my name, well It is 99% certain it is the name we are going for...I am just a wee bit concerned about the spelling of it, as I can't use it on this forum and will she encounter similar problems with printed forms etc. The problem is it means something completely different if just written in english (without accent)
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

    Just read your earlier post Caz! Glad you did make it, but sorry we never had much of a chance to talk. It was a really good place, but very noisy and the separate tables made it a bit more awkward. Your kids seemed lovely and well behaved. I admire you coping with 5 of them. I struggle to get out the house on time with only 1!

    Everyone was lovely today, all mums, kids, and Mr Tia! Thanks to Scruffy for organising it. Hopefully next time, Buttons and Squishy can join us (although maybe for a bit longer if you are coming all the way from Aberdeen!)

    hey all

    i've put £1 each way bets on 5 horses - character building, don't push it, dream alliance, niche market, & tricky trickster.

    well, i had to phone my mum + dad to get them to put bets on for me + said i'll pay them back, cos OH is at work til 6pm so i'm looking after Evie + went to betfred but they said I'd have to leave her outside in her pushchair if I wanted to bet :eek: cos obviously i'm doing it on behalf of my 3 month old!

    so i took her to morrisons instead & we gambled on the lottery together and purchased some alcoholic beverages together - all of which seemed perfectly acceptable! :rotfl:

    hope everyone is enjoying the gorgeous weather :j :j

    xx
    :j Very proud mummy to Evie Mae born 26/12/09 :j
    Aims for 2010 - be a good mummy, lose (some) weight, clear (some) debts, be happy :D
