    Good advice from Becles SS.

    (I wonder did she read it herself? ;))


    Have you heard anything from the bus boys mother?

    Ooh, are

    Did the boots happen to be beautiful black leather, knee high, flat, zip up with straps around the ankle bit, for £36?

    If it was, they're cheeky beggars, a pair of them fell into my trolley on Wednesday. :o

    Yes, yes, yes. :D. I am you. The brown ones were also v v nice too.

    We can be twinnies wearing them if we both make it to Elles meet in warrington.

    OH will be out tomorrow for some apparently big rugby match that involves Wigan. WM will be at home with kids and xfactor and strictly. And that is after the day he had off work today to watch the ruddy golf, that was rained off. Must be nice to be him.
  • I need new boots...although I resurrected the year before last's boots that have been festering in the bottom of the under stairs cupboard since I had Benjamin!


    I am taking DSS to our Saturday toddle group tomorrow - what a lucky 10 year old he is!!

    Good job he is a good lad - and I will get extra gossiping with mates and new baby girl cuddles (2 new baby girls - squee) because he will run around after Benjamin :cool:

    Oh yey - i've got a twin. :j

    I loved the brown too, and did consider getting both. :o


    MFD I bought new boots before going up into the loft to get the large black bin bag containing boots from previous years! I have a shocking boot problem, with at least 20 pair up there, and 5-10 favorites in my wardrobe. :(

    No - not heard anything from her.

    I get a bit flustered talking about awkward stuff, so I think I might drop her a polite and friendly message on Facebook. That way I can get down everything I want to say, and not stutter then get embarrassed and miss bits out :o

    Would have done it this evening but the boys wanted to watch The Hangover. They thought it was hilarious and it cheered James up.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Sounds like me!

    How well do you know her? Friends?, or you just know her through the boys?

    Could you give her a friendly call and say "sooo, what's going on with our boys then?"

    I haven't had Finn weighed since he was about 8 weeks old :o. He also hasn't had his 8 month development check - we moved right around then, but the old GP never contacted us about it and I haven't gotten around to phoning the new HVs to see what we need to do. I'm not worried, so I figure why bother?

    SJ, your rant is totally spot-on though. Maybe you should stop going to the clinics? If you're happy with him, then what's the point?

    Sorry, I ranted and ran eariler! I had the 8 month check thingy appointment booked for me so I will go to that but probably won't go again, and if I do it certainly won't be often. I quite like to know how much he weighs, just for my own interest, but whatever the number is doesn't make any difference so I guess I could manage not knowing.

    My DH is extremeley noisy getting in from work too. Very annoying. 3, ditto your OH, mine gets into bed and farts too, and he farts a lot in his sleep. Men, sometimes I think I should've been a lesbian :cool:
