  • Evening all.

    I'm not loving eBay at the moment. Just had a message to say a book I posted arrived damaged. Can I claim from Royal Mail for that? What a PITA!

    Lunch at Wagamamas was eventful. It was there opening day, the service was patchy, at best and I found meat in my vegetarian dish. I got my dish for free, but it still turns my stomach :(.

    Bought a stunning dress in the Next outlet at a bargain price. It's my usualy size, but my BFing boobs are just too big for it. Not sure whether to return it or sell it on eBay (although, as I said, I'm not loving eBay at the moment).

    Ladybird- I would call the police too. I also asked OH and he said call them too, and either the police will secure it, or they will get the council out there and then to do it.
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p
  • GISI - I hate it when that happens... makes me cringe for days. Luckily it doesn't happen often. Was it a new one in Southampton?

    Does your OH work for the police then? We are in flats, so at least it isn't open to the elements, and you need to get a key to get into the building in the first place iyswim. But yep - will see if anyone is about tomorro (will be brave and go knock on the door, I'm probably being paranoid, but I didn't want to do that when I'm on my own with Izzy, just in case of drama iyswim... ) and if not then call.

    No, it was a new one at Gunwharf, Portsmouth. I just emailed them about it actually. I hope it was only the one piece I found, but as I was eating while feeding H, you never know _pale_.

    Yep, OH is old bill! That's good that it's a locked building. At least that means it's unlikely that anyone undesirable can take up residence.

    I am getting rather stressed out by all the crying :(

    I'm on my new netbook... Like it? :D I arrived this morning over 2 weeks early!!

    I love it :)
    Someone with the same SOH as me! OH said I was weird for texting my Dad saying 'Do you like my new phone?' - we both do it every time we get one so I text Sami and she replied so :p to OH!

    GISI - I would definitely complain. I eat meat but cant eat fish so think I would react the same! :(

    Just had curry and we have pizza in an hour or so. Got a lovely bottle of wine now as well :)
    A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

    Where does the time go? :think:
  • Searching I don't NEED a hug, but I'm always happy to have one :)

    Kindof - could be a growth spurt. You never know with babies! If she is feeding loads she is probably trying to up your supply, so just go with the flow and it will calm down in a day or so. You need to master the art of reading/chatting with us on the lappy/playing playstation games while feeding. It makes the whole thing a lot more bearable :)

  • Can I throw my toys out of my pram for a moment?

    Does anyone else ever feel like they are constantly the one organising treats and nice things for other people, but not getting much back? So far this month I have done foot print cards for both Nan's from Henry for Mother's Day, the usual Mother's Day gifts for my Mum and MIL, cards, gifts, balloon and cake for my Nan and now cards, gifts and a cake for my Granny for tomorrow. On Sunday my family are all coming to my house, for my birthday tea that I will cook (whilst looking after my 4 month old). Yesterday, on my birthday only my Nan phoned me to wish me a Happy Birthday. Neither of my parents did, none of my cards came on my actual birthday and OH didn't even get me a card from Henry. I know I am being a spoilt brat, but I'm just getting a bit fed-up.

    As you were, just wanted to vent that!
