    Sounds like a great night Birdie!

    Hope Poppy slept better for you Wendz. Max came back from nursery yesterday like something possessed. I think his back teeth might be at him. He was going crazy in Sainsbury's but I just ignored him. He is usually very good. Maybe this is the start of the terrible 2s!

    My boss sent me a kind of snotty email yesterrday (cleverly disguised as being helpful). I am just going to ignore her. I am not starting a tit for tat email exchange. I am over her:)

    Much better night thanks CMD! Went to sleep a bit earlier and only one waking up. Oh no about Max, hope it doesn't last, could just be the teeth like you say.

    Well done on ignoring the boss as well!

    That's the best way to be CMD! I'd be too tempted to give her a mouthful, but I speak first and think later. I have too short a temper :o

    That's quite exciting about the camera Tete. I was thinking the same as Birdie, that they'd just post it out! Is it a good camera then?

    Poor Max! And poor CMD! Hope he's not too grizzly for long, I know the pain of just wisdom teeth. Imagine that all over your mouth, and not really knowing why the heck it's hurting! Yikes!

    It was a magic cocktail van, the guy pressed a button on his computer and the cocktails automagically mixed with the ingredients coming out of tubes that came from nowhere! They also turned my tongue green! :p

    Feeling slightly perkier now after a bacon butty and a carton of Ribena... :o

    Well done for being the bigger person there CMD, just file it under 'Rubbish from the boss' and if she sends lots of snotty e-mails keep them to show her boss when you leave, make sure you give them a very 'constructive' review of the management style there! :) I hope Max is happier today, teething must be awful, like Cinny says, especially when you don't know what's happening!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Glad you had a better night. Makes a huge difference!

    Max is back in good form today. He snuggled up to me on the couch for about 1/2 an hour so back to himself!

    I am very tempted to be snotty back but as OH said, I have to think of my baby and not get stressed. He is right - why bother - she won't change and I only have another few weeks of her. I will just put my head down and get on with it.

    Yum to magic cocktails and bacon sandwiches. I have gone very bad on chocolate and sweets lately. I need to stop!

    I have only put on about 9lbs so far though so not bad for 29 weeks pregmnant. Am hoping I will snap back to my normal weight after this pregnancy as well.

    Morning all! Ooh, liking the sound of the magic cocktail van too, but maybe not on a Monday night!!

    Yeah I'm pretty pleased with my camera, it's this one. Haven't had a proper play with it yet as needed to charge the battery but it has options such as Aperture Priority which I thought were only available on SLRs. I had a sudden idea this morning to set up a little Etsy shop, as they're doing a press release and photo to go in various local papers etc - the runner up has his own gallery and website and everything so I thought it would be good advertising and so am quickly setting up a shop! No idea what I'm doing! Any tips Dinah from when you were selling prints on there? No idea what to charge or anything so going to have to do some quick research, but nothing ventured, nothing gained!

    Well done for the non response CMD, make sure you keep the email though as evidence should it ever come to that. Poor Max, I know how awful it is just having wisdom teeth come through :(

    NIM for a moment I thought a remote control truck was some kind of vehicle for transporting your TV remote control :o
