    Rach some people are so ignorant i would have said something to him.

    Does anyone know the rules for the use of clary sage oil, when is it safe to start using it ( i think its 37wks but not sure) and do i have to use a carrier oil or can it be rubbed into bump neat

    I know I should say something, a woman at work had a go at me for not having said stuff, but it's really hard on a full train full of bankers in suits!

    Rach you dont have to be rude just ask politely they usually feel to embarrassed to say no if the train is full and as for the Train full of [STRIKE]W@nkers[/STRIKE] i mean bankers they dont own it you pay your fair just like every one else on there they should be more polite and offer a lady a seat they are no better than you you just need the seat more :)

    I know, i will def try to ask after my hols, I usually do get a seat now as I wait for the next train but this morning would've been quite a wait. The problem if I'd definitely have to tap them on the shoulder to ask as they completely avoid your eyes!

    Rach.. I had the urge to strop tonight .. a woman pushed in front of the queue to see the childrens new teachers.. and I was not impressed.. I said it isn't like I'm not big enough to see!! .. I was seen immediately and ushered to a seat.. DS3 was most impressed.. I said see.. you don't have to be rude.. just firm!! I'd be REALLY obnoxious.. I hate being hot and I cannot stand for long.. I'd be shaming people into giving me a seat.. LOUDLY exclaiming how rude and inconsiderate they all were.. and how would they feel if it were their pregnant wives having to stand so a strapping man could have a nice comfy seat.. I am also cheeky enough to stand in the middle of a train and ask if anyone would be willing to donate me their bum place..

    New bedding on bed.. just waiting for my waters to break all over it lol...

    lol we did talk loudly about how rude people were etc, makes no difference. I do think London commuters are a breed of their own...as sir monster will agree! I know of a woman who was pg with twins quite late on and she still was left standing on the boiling tube! People constantly shove me out of their way to get on the train too...I might try the 'aren't i big enough to see' comment next time!

    Having said that I still wish we were going by train tomorrow as it would be a comfy long distance train and I'd be with DH, but it would cost nearly £200 so no chance.

    that is one of my polite versions... 'am I effing invisible' is used most lol...

    I would then stand in the middle and bellow.. I can be most rude.. you'd be mortified!! However rude they can be, I can definitely out-do them!

    Morning All

    Still here and no niggles yet. Thinking a busy day might help get her into gear so I was meant to be waiting in for some motor cross bits and what not for boyfriends crosser but he has been really excessively tired lately so he's decided to take a day off today so he can keep an ear out for the post man.

    instead I am going to get my clean on so at least if I do pop I will know that the place is tidy when I leave it. So am going to have a cleaning day and hoping that might encourage her to get her bum in gear. Silly thing is there isn't loads to do but cleaning things like the hallway, bathroom, toilet etc should help. Cant be doing with curry and hot baths - I hate baths - would rather have a nice long shower instead.

    Although I will be stomping to school today with Benji. x x x x x
    Time to find me again

    morning x

    sammy massive labour vibes for today, loads of stomping I reckon, good luck xx

    Stuck at home today with the contagious little lady, not bothering with DS preschool. I'll uncover the paddling pool in a minute and put some fresh water in, hopefully they'll play out all day. Then once I've sorted the house out I might let them wreck the kitchen by helping me make scones. Just waiting for the results from my blood test to see if I've had chicken pox or not, doctor marked it urgent but the lady who took the blood said it could take 7-10 days for the results, I'm not spotty yet though so hopefully I am immune.

    Just to make my life easier OH decided that tonight was a good night to do a night out at work and he is working tomorrow too, just what I need.
