    Thanks Lady :) I have just phoned my sis and I am taking T there tonight, its the 1st time he has been to her flat!! (its 8 cases of stairs so I have avoided it!) so getting out will do us both good, although I am abit worried about taking T out in the cold.

    Coil... ouch. I dont think I could ever have one unless I was knocked out when it was put in, LOL.
  • I figured the idea of the coil creeps me out less than the implant. And I'm rubbish at taking the pill, so I need something permanent. I don't trust myself otherwise!

    I'm baaack. Getting a coil fitted blimmin hurts. It doesn't take long to do, but ouch! I was good though, and didn't swear or anything ;) Now on the sofa with my wheat bag and the internet. I was right in guessing I wouldn't get much done this afternoon.

    Kitkat how annoying. It is one thing to not come over, but not telling you is just rude :( I'm sure she didn't mean to come accross like she doesn't want to see you though.

    Well you just put me off getting one :rotfl: and I'm too unreliable to take the pill, and the implant turned me into a growling fat monster :o

    I hope everyone is OK, I haven't read back.

    KK I'm an expert in offending people because I forget what I've arranged to do, then end up calling to cancel at the last minute :o I'm sure she would feel really bad if she knew how she'd made you feel :o

    Well I went to sleep, woke up feeling rough and them promptly fell down the stairs :( and now I have very bruised backside, I'm betting it will already be an interesting shade of purple!

    On the plus side my nan is taking my older 3 out for tea and OH and I are having liver and onions :D

  • Are lkiver and onions a good thing then delain (asks the vegetarian), or is that a euphemism? :rotfl:

    unless I find the arnica, I'll be too sore for anything that needs a euphemism :rotfl:

    It's not too bad the way I do it, I dont usually like the texture but it's nice this way. Plus it's iron packed and various doctors keep moaning at me about iron ;)

    I was going to have a go at going veggie once, but never quite managed it :o

    My mum has a friend who was vegan, she asked him what he ate (expecting to hear about veg curry and stir fries) and he said:

    'Baked beans and chips, usually':eek::eek:

    I was worried I'd end up with that kind of diet:rotfl:

    ladybird - hope the settee does the post coil trick! And hope it's more successful than the coil I had fitted a couple of years ago that expelled after about 9 months, ooh, about 2 weeks before little man was conceived!

    twoflower - can't think of anything other than (((((hugs)))))

    Finally got hold of one of thesehttp://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3495911/c_1/1|category_root|Toys+and+games|14417629/c_2/3|15701449|Pre-school+toys|14417737/c_3/4|cat_14417737|Wooden+toys|14417762.htm and he loves it, thoroughly recommend them! edit But not as much as he likes cbeebies which I have just put on for about the 3rd time ever and he's dancing along! I have succumbed to tv as an entertainer, bad mother.

    DD1 will eat anything. She's like a very hungry walking dustbin!

    Twins wouldn't eat liver. Twin2 might try it, twin1 would rather go to bed than even try it :o
