Mollie is super cute Sugar - I bet you're sick of the teapot song tho lol

I'd be grateful if noone quoted this as I'm probably going to come back and delete it later.

We were on a hen do yesterday which started with afternoon tea at a posh hotel in Manchester, then a meal and night out in the evening. I picked up my best mate from a local train station coz I was driving to the hotel. Her dh rang and said he'd forgotten his keys, he was really angry and was blaming her because apparantly he told her he had no keys so she shouldn't have left the house. She's adamant he didnt and I believe her. He said she had to come back and she said she couldn't because we were just on our way to start the afternoon tea, he hung up and refused to speak to her. She got really upset and me and another friend insisted there was no way she was going back and missing it. From past occurances we all (her included) suspect he did it on purpose to ruin her day and night out. (first since having her 10 week old baby) She arranged for him to borrow money from her parents and get a train to Manchester to collect keys, he had no other plans so nothing spoiling. He wouldnt even entertain this and got really nasty with his texts. Eventually he arranged for a friend who lives in Manchester to come to the hotel and collect the keys. She thought everything was sorted then she got a text telling her not to bother going home. And another one a bit later saying he meant it and a bag would be packed for her.
She went home as planned at the end of the night (she got the last train) and he wouldn't let her in the house, her 10 week old was inside with him! She flagged down a police car who refused to get involved as the baby was not in danger and gave her a lift to her parents. Her phone was dead so we heard nothing all morning/early afternoon when another friend went round to her parents, they were really upset and said he'd let her in but they couldn;t get hold of her and didn;t know what was going to happen. He is very physically big and she confessed last night she was frightened about what he would do. He hates me and has a real issue with me, mainly because my BF and I are so close so I couldn't ring the house or his mobile but another friend did and was able to speak to her and apparantly she sounded ok. She's texted me since as well but I feel worried about the whole situation. There's other things gone on this week where he's got really paranoid and nasty with her and he definitely seems to have a major screw loose. I feel quite frightened for the baby as well I'm also worried about getting too close or involved myself incase he flips and blames me...I'm on my own with T tonight and tomorrow and feeling quite vulnerable.

Sorry for posting a bit of a rant but I feel better now I've got it out of my head so to speak!

I'm chilling watching x factor and planning an early night tonight. Have to do my nightly express first tho doh

7th is good for me. and SS that is adorable

I'm just busy writing our Christmas list. I have discovered this is a good plan for many reasons - firstly I can give people ideas for what I want so they don't give me smellies I'm allergic to, secondly I can ask for toys for Izzy that I know she wants, and we want her to have, and thirdly I can ask for DVDs for DH that i can cope with watcching (Of course they are ones I know he will want too!)

Now I need to work out what to buy everyone else, but that can wait.

CFAC girl, a gun? Seriously?!!!!

And Hugs Gill. I don't know what else to suggest, other than making sure she knows she has a bolthole if she needs one, and where to find the number for womans aid or somewhere (maybe she could save it on her phone as "Amy" or something?)

got-it-spend-it

I wasn't at all offended, CAFC, just offering my perspective. Not having a gun would totally be a battle I would pick! I am outraged on L's behalf!

So Kindof, next time your MIL sends E home in velour just think to yourself, 'it could be worse, they could have bought E a gun...' :rotfl:. Sorry, I didn't mean to be flippant.

Gill, that sounds very scary, I don't blame you for being worried. There are some links and phone numbers at the top of the main page of this board that might be useful for you/her.

I don't mind the teapot song. It's better than the nursery rhyme book - only one line from each and every one out of tune!

got-it-spend-it

Just seen your post Gill, that is a really horrible situation, for your friend but also for you. He sounds like a real bully and I think Ladybird's suggestion is a good one. Hugs for you x x

they are so funny sometimes.....

I think its because DH and my dad used to go shooting when we were down south, only clay pigeons etc, but my dad does own his own shooting gun (very responsibly i add)... so i know its just an involvement thing for all the boys, but its mostly because he's 3 months old, and he also doesnt need to own a gun, if he wants to go shooting with them, he can borrow one at the range like hubby does LOL...

anyways, off to bed now peeps to plan all my excursions with my quinny...

did i mention i won a quinny buzz....

SS, videos are absolutely adorable! Has VBF gone home again now or are you still with-guestage?

The 7th should be good for me too

We have no chocolate in the house. This has upset me.
