    Looking on the map of where that is, if you roll up to the next land mass above it there is Loch Fyne and Loch Gilphead... I've stopped off at the first loch on the way to the second... We stayed at a place called Stronachullen very near there... An epic journey, but well worth it!!

    I spent the last 12 years living 20 miles up the lochside from Lochgilphead (I worked in Oban, my Ex worked in the 'Gilp') :D

    Evening all.

    Had a big success today - put Izzy down for a nap in her bed, and she quite happily went to bed (and sleep) without making any fuss :) Hoorah!

    We had fun at playgroup this morning, but this afternoon has been devoted to having a housework catch up. I still need to clean the kicthen floor, but I'm going to finish my tea first damnit. (well, technically still need to do lots of things, but the rest can wait.)

    I need to have a proper read back, but CAFC, they do say that mums who talk about the birth (and how they feel about it) are far less likely to get PND, so yep, go ahead and talk to DH/HV/us/your mum/whoever else you can pin down ;) And you are right - baby is the best reward for the whole going-through-the-birth bit. If baby wasn't such a brilliant reward no-one would ever do it again!

    SM - that sounds like an excellent idea. No wine in the fridge here though :( I may indulge in a baileys, seeing as I'm home alone. It will be my reward for getting off my )(*& and cleaning that floor!

    I'm not sure you'd get a lot of use out of that in Fareham!

    Ooh, Baileys, now there's an idea.
