  • I've reported it too. Feel like I've made it now I have my very own spammer though :rotfl:

    Calm has been restored in the Lucky household today. We are all sitting in the garden enjoying the sunshine! Bliss! Kids drawing on the patio and washing it off with water guns, within minutes it's dry so they can start again :D. Shame I have to go out later for our Scout Group AGM :(.

    SA I'm jealous of your size 8 with curves!

  • Lucky,

    I'm so sorry to hear things were even tougher than usual last week, although its not at all surprising, given the due date was approaching. You made your plans for your little one and didn't have the opportunity to see them come to fruition.

    I also like the thought given of planting something so you have a place to visit. I'm originally from New Zealand and at the ANZAC Day services, they often have sprigs of Rosemary to pin to your poppy - for remembrance.


    "Rosemary is a herb or shrub that has been associated with remembrance for thousands of years, and it also is a symbol of loyalty and friendship. It was used in medieval medicines to cure various ailments.

    The wearing of rosemary on ANZAC Day is done as a mark of respect for the men who never returned from Gallipoli, or indeed, later wars. The wearing of it honours the memory of those brave men.

    There have been suggestions that the tradition also began because there were no flowers to decorate the graves after the battle of Gallipoli and they were decorated with rosemary, the only greenery found there. However, rosemary, along with laurel, ivy and some evergreens have been used since ancient times to signify immortality."


    "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance: pray you love, remember"

    Shakespeare
    (Hamlet, Act IV, Scene V)



    Variety: Remembrance Rosemary ( Gallipoli Rosemary)
    HAW, thanks for the hug. I went a bit deranged last week :o Infact, lets call a spade a spade, I was proper psycho :eek:. I think it summed it up the other day when DH gave me a cuddle and I said "what are you after??!!". His reply was "not to get stabbed ...." :rotfl:

    Reminds me of the lyrics from the Kirsty MacColl song "Bad":

    http://www.kirstymaccoll.com/music/lyrics/bad.htm


    I've been the token woman all my life
    The token daughter and the token wife
    Now I collected tokens one by one
    'Til I've saved enough to buy a gun
    Now you can't get even but you can get mad
    And it's not funny no and it's not sad
    It's just a feeling that I've always had
    Oh look out world I'm about to be bad

    I want a brief encounter in a stolen car
    A hand on my buttock in a Spanish bar
    I want to meet the man who wants to go too far
    For a token of my affection
    I want to taste excitement, smell the danger
    Get swept off my feet by the perfect stranger
    I want to try something that I've never had
    Oh look out world I'm about to be bad

    I've been an awful woman all my life
    A dreadful daughter and a hopeless wife
    And I've had my eyes on that carving knife
    Oh you've been lucky so far
    I'm not crazy no I'm just mad
    I don't want to be sorry, no I want to be glad
    It's a feeling inside that I have always had
    So look out world I'm about to be bad

    I'm a big girl, size 16-18 but I have a very womanly hourglass figure. I cling to the fact that I go in in the middle :rotfl:.
    My boobs are so big I would probably topple over if I was skinny :o.:D.

    I wish I DID go in at the middle - that's my fault though, I eat too much and I don't exercise enough. When I was complaining to a friend about my big boobs but tiny feet, she came back with the classic response: "you know why you've got small feet? Nothing grows in the shade!"

    Thanks, love. Good thing she's one of my best friends (and she was telling the truth!).


    I'm about 5' 1" (on a good day) and am another one with a reddish tinge in my dark hair - again, slightly assisted these days. I can have the Kiwi accent but the posh "phone voice" tends to come out at work too. My Dad used to say the louder I talk, the more Kiwi I sound. True, old boy.

    Take care.

    Nooo Brizzled - not your post! :eek:

    It was a spamming [so called] weight-loss consultant. :(

    All gone now thanks to our lovely Mods. ;):D
  • How dare they read our descriptions and spam about weight loss, surely it should have been a modelling agency advert.

    Glad all is calm, enjoy weather today Saturday is meant to be rank so Im planning more garden related madness on Sunday!
