    Glad the coaching went well, and if it gives you a confidence boost then its all good. Can I take it from your absence that it is in fact chicken pox? Have your two had that?

    Err my absence :o is because its half term and busy busy busy but thankfully no chicken pox as yet. My two had it last year when Cherry was born and passed it to her as well so thankfully inhouse chickenpox should be a thing of the past but of course with new members of the household thats a different matter.

    Had to laugh the other day OH asked me when we were having a baby it was just the way he said it I did suggest that we had better get some practice in if thats what he wanted :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I did get to see the baby thats arriving mid July for two weeks last Friday and she is gorgeous she was only a couple of days old and a bit jaundiced but very cute :D

    Any one else locked out of fb this morning because of site maintenance? :mad:

    I forgot it was half term, that's what happens when you have no small children around you! I remember now, you having a house full of sick children.

    About the 'having a baby' I know you like having little ones around, but that's a bit drastic!

    See above :D She is lovely nice to get a preview :)

    Draft CV arrived today I need to find some new hobbies as that part looks sad :( actually I am sad because i don't actually do anything that's just for me - I used to sail which I really enjoyed but that was pre baby days and the person I sailed with has sold his boat which is mighty selfish of him ;)

    So suggestions needed for new hobbies that would look good on a CV and that I might enjoy

    Running ... or power walking, if thats too bouncy. Is it something to get you out of the house? If not, origami :D
