Jam - FWIW I think your photos are fab. If you wanted to think about taking it further then maybe offer to take some for some friends and see how they turn out. Perhaps say they can pay you what they think they are worth? Although I guess that depends on your friends

Or do you need another proper job?

Hi tara
Pics look nice, did you all have a nice time away ??

It was lovely thank-you, weather was fantastic. You all ok? I saw your course was cancelled.

Disappeared for a while to watch a dvd of The Tudors and share some wine with OH. Who is now sparko on the sofa, so I'm back briefly. Need to go and wash nappies and do bottles shortly though.

I can relate to feeling jealous of friends coming up to 20 week scans. I caught myself looking at double pushchairs the other day and letting my mind wander to what if :eek:. I had such a rubbish pregnancy last time round though, and 3 kids are already hard work so can only imagine what 4 would be like so this is definitely my hormones talking not my head. Still, though, what if...:D

OH is apparently DYING of man cold now. He claims he's going to sleep on the sofa tonight so as not to infect me.. hmm, only spent eight hours very close to him today already! *rolleyes* Wouldn't it be better for him to stay contained in the bedroom rather than breathing his germs all over the living room? :cool:

My SIL has specially requested the "honour" of making Rhys a retro cheese/pineapple/pickled onion hedgehog

I hope it's made with a potato covered in tin foil

Thanks for sharing all the pics. They're lovely.

I love this one of Charlotte. I love it when they run manically without a care in the world:

Watched Knowing tonight. It started off really good, but then it got a bit tedious and stupid at the end.

I'm away from 26th June. Back to work in a fortnight supposed to be but can be flexible.

Are you thinking of coming for a weekend then Beenie? Or midweek and letting Cam dog the school if it doesn't allow school hols lol

Well it'd definitely be on the cheap so it'd have to be for a day cos staying over would cost a bomb! So if i can get the cheap train tickets it's 2 hours from here, so i could be there for 10am and stay til 3 or 4, that'd be a nice long day out to make 4hrs of travel worth it i think lol!

I'm open to what day, i don't mind keeping DS off school (but knowing my luck i'll be the one that gets pulled by a truant officer LOL).

I dunno...a reckon a whinging man is better delegated to the sofa where you don't have to suffer the moaning


Anyone else in the 'undecided' pile find it decidedly arkward when every man and his dog feels that they have the right to ask you if/when you are going to have another?

I have a stock response of 'I am too busy enjoying the bundle of joy I have' or 'One is hard enough, why make it twice as hard for myself' answers but what I really want to say is 'Who the eff do you think you are to enquire into my private business with my husband!!!'

Well the course is still on, my flight is cancelled and all the ferries are full so I cant get over, although I have been told to try to get a last minute flight as soon as planes are allowed to fly. hmmm, someone sitting in england where you have a choice of 10 - 15 airports is fine, we have 2 and everyone is trying to get a flight, so I really cant see that working.
Its going to cause an unbelievable amount of chaos for me in the long run as I cannot do my job till I have been on this and therefore cannot earn a bonus which is a very significant part of my wage

MFD - it's narks me when it's family that know our history ask when we're having another. I just reply don't know.

When I just want to shout at them - I had 8 years of hell do you really want me to go back there!

If it happens with the minimum of intervention ie weight loss and medication, great otherwise Katie is enough for me.

MM - hugs, we're watching every news broadcast as well as it's affecting DH's job no planes = no work. God knows what's going to happen if it goes on for ages - his company are not going to want to pay the staff for sitting at home.

MFD, there is a really obnoxious woman on my MILs street who feels she has the right to know everything about everyone and when I had Jasmine she kept going on and on at me about a 2nd, and this time she asked me about a number 3 and I told her that it would only happen if the condom split again, same as the last 2 Her face was a picture !!
