    hello - I've a quick question. Am I able to send bottles through the post? I want to post a friend a bottle of malt whiskey ;) How am I best to do this????

    It should be ok in a strong box with loads of bubble wrap so it doesn't move around inside. I've sent glass bottles for work by post and courier and never had a problem. I regularly send some to Belgium so they go on various lorries and planes, and they get there fine.

    I told Charlotte I was making Chinese for tea, but she said she didn't like Chinese any more. I offered to cook chicken, veg and noodles instead and she was happy to eat that :rotfl:
    Here I go again on my own....

    Watching wife swap, a lady has just been in tears in a piece to camera because the family ate pizza from the box :eek: and she complained that their house was messy and it's tidier than mine :o:o:o

    That has just shamed me into getting the hoover out :rotfl:

    At my friends yesterday, she said to me "Sorry its so messy, its usually alot cleaner than this" and she has a 2yr old boy.
    I was :eek: as her house was spotless apart from some toys on the floor.

    So i hoovered this morning :o

    We went to see Harry Potter today, its very good! I had a hotdog and i think it was poison, but a sandwich from boots sorted that out :D

    When we got back to ILs, Lily was asleep so my grand entrance i had planned was ruined. But she woke up and we had a small cuddle then she demanded some of my kebab :rotfl:

    Question:
    On my fb i mentioned im having 2 growth scans and some of you commented. Today i got 2 letters, one to discuss my ante natal care and another to see a consultant.

    Why do you think it is? Because of my high BMI?

    EA, did the midwife not mention referring you? It could be because your BMI is above their range, or maybe because Lily was above their normal birthweight range...

    Mine is because I am humungously fat... But you don't have to have the extra things they suggest if you don't want to... I've turned down the growth scans and a glucose test and a referral to an anaesthetist because I feel they're unecessary for me...

    Caitlyn just ate a mince pie :D I thought she'd not like the bit in the middle but that was the bit she ate first!! She left half the pastry lol...

    I think I remember you saying before you were due to be under consultant-care this time, in which case, if it's like my friend's recent pregnancy I would imagine it is your recall letter to begin your antenatal care with that consultant's team. HTH x

  • Hugs :grouphug: twoflower. I echo what others have said, and please feel free to chat away on if it helps at all.

    Can anyone give me any advice on weight loss hypnotherapy? I think I might give this a whirl.


    Just browsing Black Friday :whistle:. Not that I need anything :cool:.

    EA- could you give your midwife a call later to find out.

    Susan- I love you FB London pictures!

    What date is your scan, Always?

    GISI - fairies flew today :)

    KitKat - I'm sorry I still haven;t got the name of the cream for you but one tip that has made a huge difference to T is that you need to put LOADS of cream on frequently. The HV used the words 'baste him in it' lol. She ran her hand over his skin and said that he should have so much cream on that if you do that then your hand should feel moist at any point during the day. If it's dry then it's not working. His has near enough gone, it's makes me so happy to see his skin so clear :)
