    SS [STRIKE]I hope your bed bits turn up, you've had to wait far too long for them!
    [/STRIKE] I'm glad they've arrived!

    I would adore one of these wedding dresses but they cost more than we have to spend on the wedding :rotfl: So the mse part of me found this on ebay, or they have it with the bow on the front too. Not 100% what colour bow/petticoat I'd have but I love it!

    Tia-fairies are en route :)

    PP - I do look like an egg, and do wear a wig. But it's not pregnancies fault ;)

    SJ - can you recommend anywhere nice in Leeds centre to eat? I'm meeting my sister on Thursday and we'll both have babies with us. If your going to sling meet on the 23rd I'll come, I just didn't want to go on my own :o

    i used to live in acomb a good 13 years ago so been awhile since i was there .. nice memories x

    The guy who was best man at my wedding lived in Acomb.. I used to tell him he was a head louse..

    So does my former MIL.. she has thyroid problems and most of her hair fell out so she got OTT with faffing with it and out came all the rest!

    the children were horrified one day we went round she took out her 'eyes' (contacts).. then her teeth... then off came the hair!!! .. DS1 asked if she had a wooden leg too!

    SJ there's another Warrington sling meet on the 23rd June IIRC. We should organise a proper north west summer meet though, there are loads of nice parks we could have a picnic somewhere if people fancy it? (And hopefully get nice weather!)

    oh yes please!!
    3 this Fridays sling meet is outdoors, I think the 23rd is too.

    Heaton Park is lovely and lot's to see and do there. It's quite easy to get to on public transport too for people that don't drive.

    i love heaton park, its dead easy for us to and the 2 childrens play areas are fab and the farm is great too.

    wed is best for me. :D

    has anyone been to york just lately? is it still nice ... was thinking of taking zoe to york dungeons in a couple of weeks i used to live there but havent been in a good few years x

    york has just become more and more commercialised and expensive and touristy in the last 30 years.. I hate it there now.. dungeons are still the same though :D

    I agree with PP, we went last month and it's still lovely but very expensive and nothing like it was a few years ago.

    boogellyboo - I love that bib too: I'm seriously thinking of ordering it :D How much would you charge for a baby tutu out of interest?

    I'm soooo wanting to buy http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/star-wars-cookie-cutter/
    for my mum as she would love them, but typically they only deliver inside of the united states :( There are some really cool pancake molds too, but again, states only!
    http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/star-wars-pancake-mold/?pkey=x|4|1||4|star%20wars||0&cm_src=SCH

    I'm not sure really, I need to price up the net and ribbon at the wholesalers and work out properly how long they take to make up. I'm thinking I might get a few more of the England bibs asda are selling for £1 and do them in a set on ebay. I only grabbed a couple for Isla and my niece earlier.

    Those star wars things are ace, do you know anyone in the states who they could be sent too then forwarded to you?
