OMG not long now then!! Doesn't seem too long ago you announced it... lots of people I know are having babies. I'm slightly scared as MrS made a comment about us and a child the other day when surrounded by couples with babies, and has also told me he thinks about us having children and can see it happening. Eeek.

Well my friend was a week early so you never know I'm glad I've popped back in time for the big day!

I know it doesnt seem like 5 minutes ago that I was shaking like a leaf telling OH that I was 6 weeks pregnant! Time has really flown by.

Ooh sounds like things are going well with you and MrS then
I too know lots of people having babies at the minute, must be something in the water :rotfl:

PAD £1.07 for me today please to Barclaycard, I wonder what on earth their staff make of all these little payments if they ever see them

Actually I think Barclaycard are maybe not too bad with this. I go in with the small change jar money in bags (usually no more than £8)with my Barclaycard statement and pay it off against it and they've never complained, although one cashier did once point out how long it would take me to pay it off at that rate!! I had to tell her that this wasn't all I was paying:rotfl:

A sure sign of a PaD addiction if ever I heard one, you are very welcome to join our support group PaDders Anonymous!

Think perhaps I need to - have tendencies to OCD at the best of times and PADding is certainly feeding into that. Plus I think it is because everyone is so friendly and encouraging on here that I love dipping in and seeing what everyone is up to, like catching up with friends.

Agreed
OH really doesnt understand it, everytime he looks at the account he'll say "isnt it strange how the balance is a round number". "Yes dear of course it is ".

:rotfl:This made me laugh out loud and my OH gave me a funny loook - I can relate to this. I don't round accounts off but like the sound of the idea, especially when you can't afford to do big pads it makes you feel like you're still chipping away. However, as previously stated I can get a tad obsessive and think this would definitely have this effect.

Well done on paying off mumbank, mollusk. I too owe money to sister/brother-in-law who has said not to bother paying it back, they've written it off but my sense of pride says no, we borrowed it to get straight which didn't work out but as a matter of principle it gets paid back - especially now their kids are nearing uni, they'll need the money.


PS - sorry about the multiple posts, not clever with the quoting from different sources in same post!:)

Glad to hear you are ok, have been wondering where you were!

And he'll be huge....a 10lber (can be done...my best friend's daughter was a 10lber)......

Maybe he's a politician in your belly? Or a new big fat bank? Just a thought LOL
