    Those t-shirts are very cute and very you Cinny! I'm sure you'll look really sexy with your little cap on. Happy new hair colour! :)

    Must have been a night for odd dreams Flower, had some stonkers myself!

    Your weekend plans sound lovely Wendz, I'm sure Poppy will be fine with your Mum, she'll be an angel and everyone will wonder what you complain about! ;)

    We've got an exciting day of food shopping tomorrow. OH was supposed to be playing in a Rugby 7's tournament but it's been cancelled, for the best really as his team would have been creamed in the first round! Going to my friend's tomorrow for a girly dinner and I'm staying over so I can drink my body weight in wine if I wish to do so (of course I'm very sensible and would never do that! ;))

    How's the hip today Hopalong Dinah?!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Sounds like a nice weekend Birdie! I can't wait to drink my body weight in wine again although i doubt it will take that much haha.

    Cinny - car expenses are so annoying aren't they!

    Please don't wind her up, shes not in good form with me.

    We've been to the dentist and one of us needs 2 fillings :o. The other is completely in the clear down to her almost obsessive level of dental hygene.

    So yeah, not happy with me :eek::eek::eek:

    Anyone got any nice plans this weekend?


    Work work work! Not long left to go on maternity leave though, going quite early to what I wanted but with the depression creeping back up I think I just need some time at home to relax and chill out.
    Hopefully will do me the world of good.

    How many weeks do you have left. I think it sounds like a good idea Flower , you need some relaxation time.

    NIM - not good about the fillings, hope they aren't too expensive.

    Will be 30 weeks on Tuesday. Got 2 weeks left at work, then a weeks holiday and then official maternity leave starts after that.
    Was originally planning to stay until 36 weeks but think this new arrangement is for the best!

    Hello everyone! Ah Flower sorry to hear about the debt but it's best to know than not. It's bound to be an expensive time having your first baby - and remember his (did I imagine it's a boy?) health and happiness comes first so try not to worry too much.

    Shame about the fillings NIM, doesn't your dental cover cover that? I still don't understand the insurances you have.

    Cinny I love your Sis's tattoo and that's a lovely photo too :)

    Just been checking my banks this morning and it's not looking healthy! Payday on Tuesday and have £60 cash in my purse so going to try and make that last me - couple of drinks after work, Parkrun in the morning which is free but going for coffee with my aunty afterwards, then staying with a friend tomorrow night - hopefully she might cook rather than going out for food :D

    D is insured, I'm not, its only £30 cause its NHS but still I am thoroughly unimpressed with this :(

    Maybe she should have been brushing YOUR teeth! is that £30 on top of the check up price? I hope so otherwise my dentist rips people off!

    For the record, not mad at NIM, just dissapointed as I do nag a lot about taking better care of his teeth and he always plays dead (or rather he pretends to imitate the cat when she wants something and goes limp and cute!). The cleaning is much needed due to someones coffee problem.

    Sorry to hear about the debts going up or barely moving :( We're in some new found debt too. £320. OH needs new tyres on his car - all four changing. They have zero grip on dry so I've been worrying about him in all this bloody rain. They're coming out and changing them tomorrow, and his card is 0% for 12 months anyways - not that they'll be on there for that long. Still, I'm trying to loosen us up a lot moneywise. Bar the challenge, focus less on saving, more on doing. Saying that, even though we have the money I'm currently talking myself out of buying this. Although I did try buying this (in a ladies cut!) this morning but had my card declined cause it's a tiny electron :(

    (he weighs 2 stone! I'm now on a 'lose a Percy' diet!) off my knee so I can get ma hair did. Got a sexy little cap to put on which makes me resemble the lone avatar. Hoping no one comes to the door, not because I actually look like a Ralph-part with it on but I don't yano, want them to be floored by my current good looks.

    So much to comment on! Firstly, you are clearly flattered yuor future children are cool enough to be the new in-name for boy parts :D

    Love the idea of a loose a Percy diet, really puts it into perspective doesn't it, this weight you can hardly lift, and your body is carting that around every day, has to be putting extra stress on the joints if nothing else.

    Do you have any savings for the tyres? If not I'm sure you'll clear it very quickly with either the mini-money or the cleaning. Have you registered self employed yet?

    How many weeks are babies cooked for? Glad you've got the end in sight, are you getting excited?

    Just an idea but how about posting an SOA? Not on the main board where it's scary, but just in here. I didn't think we could save anything when I posted ours, but we're likely to be about £100 a month better off once we've finished organising everything.
