Yes, My boss (CAFC supporter) was saying he was a good player as well.....

Good luck CAFC for tonight although really we are rivals!!!:p

Decent for our level. I'm sure they'll mention it on Soccer Saturday tomorrow as he was one of the programs 'icons' with the 'Lisa will be pleased' when he scored, joke. A couple of my girls met him once when he did an hour or two with the local kids and by all accounts, a thoroughly nice bloke who always had time for people.

Right decision to call the game off though as our players will have minds elsewhere.

Yes, their owner died. Not a good week.

That game is on TV tonight. Me and the girls will watch and Lucy will probably fall asleep on me, regardless if the game is a thriller or not!

I can remember all my Aunties', Uncles' and Cousins' birthdays (and most of their OH's and childrens' as well - I have quite a few cousins) but with the mass of babies that have been born in the past couple of years to my friends, I'm starting to lose my touch

I'm glad both of your daughters are settled and happy. Must be lovely for you to see.

Well, at my age, i'm just grateful I can remember my own name

It's nice to see them happy and I know I bleat on, but Lucy's arrival has really seen them grow. Despite my best attempts, I can't give the female perspective as well as a female, so her being here to help with things I tried to help with but couldn't 100%, has been a godsend. I know a couple of them are worried when she has 'her own' baby, she won't want them as much, but I think they know that's not true and I know it's not as Lucy adores them.

I'm off on one again :rotfl: >>>> :silenced:

ETA: - I'm glad C is feeling a little better today. Long may it continue.

Tax credits can be any time really depending on how busy they are/back logs. It's only been two weeks since the renewal deadline, so are probably wading through piles of them.

Thank you to the GISI fairies who arrived this morning - we'll hopefully use it early next week.

:T Krystal at your not-a-puppy news. I see you SIL can't spell. :rotfl:

I hope everyone else is good. I've had my bangy boy keeping me busy for the past few days , but i've managed to fill in the DLA appeal form and send it off today .

MOTM - I'm glad your older two girls are both settled into something...what is 16yr old is going to do at college? It sounds like 17yr old is enjoying her job and her nvq's:)

From what you have told us about lucy I am sure there will be no problems at all about her 'not wanting' your girls once the baby is here...as long as they realise the copious amounts of time she will need to spend with the newborn is necessary and is not a reflection on them at all:)

Did I mention my 6 year old has more brains? :rotfl:

Sorry for delays, i'm not well today. Think I have caught empathetic morning sickness or maybe just the word in bold. No, seriously, I don't feel great and Lucy was ill, then just got on with it. I don't usually do ill

Ah, that's really nice. It sounds like you've got a lovely family unit now, and it'll be even lovelier when the new baby comes along. Your new baby is going to have a great time with all his/her older sisters.

Thanks for letting me know about TC. I was one of the last to receive my form I think and it would have got back to them about 10 days before the deadline, so it hasn't been a month yet. We're not desperate for the cash, but it would be nice to know it's sorted.

(Although if they suddenly decided they owed us £50k , I would be pleased as it would enable us to buy the house we've fallen in love with but can't afford. I didn't realise that having a baby reduced the amount you could borrow by so much.

Yes, we're very close and Lucy's laid back and caring manner fits in very well. The girls are as excited as we are about the baby. I just hope it all goes well.

Yes, it's frustrating waiting. I'm not sure how they do it - surname, as and when they receive...hopefully they have underpaid you though. Does having a baby reduce the amount you can borrow? I've had my own home mortgage free for so long and before that rented from my mother, so have no ideas with that. 50k would be nice though

Hi 3:D

Soon to be 16yo is going to be doing Sociology and Psychology, plus doing higher levels of Maths and English. She's looking forward to it. She's the one that I worry about most education wise as she's often in la la land and gets bored easily, but that aside she's hoping she's done well in her exams. An 'A*' or three would be nice, although nothing like 17yo last year, but she's a little genius (she doesn't get that from me or her docile mother) 17yo is loving it at the moment. I think she also likes one of the people she works with

We've explained it all to them and they will be a part of baby growing up as much as possible. I will be going out of my way to make sure they are feeling part of it all and Lucy worries as much as me about them. After years of harship, we've had a huge slice of luck.

I hope you are feeling better and you've got your OH to help with the dinner? Even if he's a shocking cook, washing/tidying/preparation before and after isn't an art.
