    Hi Lucky - just catching up with your diary and what fab news about Connor!!!! You so so deserve that holiday so hope he's the overall winner. Hope everything is ok in your world tonight and here's a virtual hug from me for all the hurt you must be feeling about the loss of your baby.
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • *big hugs* floating across the water to you :D

    Everyone does fine it hard to know what to say sometimes, or even if they should say anything at all. But I can also understand your hurt at the fact no-one seemed to acknowledge the last while at all.

    Glad you got to speak to DH. Even if he doesn't remember at least you got it outta your system! Always helps me ;):)

    Have been checking all weekend to see if results are up yet, but still no! I wouldn't want to have to pick either. Or maybe they'll offer all 3 of you holidays! ;)

  • Lucky, you are doing so well. It will take time and you will deal with it some days and not others. Hormones make us the magical crazies we are. Its them or a labotomy I suppose. Not that thats a choice on the NHS...

    I would rather cry over the dogs trust advert than feel little and never get that heart full of love which takes your breath.

    Connor to win. Sod the others. They might be needy but I am rooting for you. :)
    Trying to shift that debt!
  • Afternoon SA, DF(W) and SBO!

    I missed a call earlier as I was driving. It just said 'Unknown' :mad: I hate it when that happens because it was probably a sales call but now I'm left wondering if it was to do with the competition. Haven't heard anything otherwise.

    Had a nice surprise earlier, our mortgage payment went out today and it was just £66 instead of £139. I rang them to find out why and to make sure next month's payment wouldn't be more, but apparently it was because there had been an overpayment sat on the account for months which they had only just decided to apply. Next month's payment will be the normal amount. It makes this month a bit easier with all the birthdays to pay for!!

    SBO your last line made me giggle!! Xx

    Hi Lucky, :hello:
    I missed a call earlier as I was driving. It just said 'Unknown' :mad: I hate it when that happens because it was probably a sales call but now I'm left wondering if it was to do with the competition. Haven't heard anything otherwise.

    Share your hatred of 'private numbers'! My last 'phone even had a bit on the 'sorry can't answer now' message, saying calls without identification are ignored due to abuse (*insert devilish-grin smiley here*). Genuine callers make the effort to 'phone again from a land-line, or give their number.

    But as you are waiting to hear from the competition people as to whether Michelle wants to meet the three finalists before making her decision, maybe 'phoning them could be the answer:
    01283 498400
    (from: http://www.spiritpubcompany.com/spirit/en/contact )

    It will be the front desk though, so expect to be passed around before getting through to the competition organiser.

    (Still keeping all digits crossed you get the result we're all waiting for ;)).

    Great news that your mortgage provider is helping with this month's birthday present/treat fund! :D
  • Thanks everyone, I have caved and emailed the girl I had to send the photo of Connor to, asking if she knows when the next round will take place and when the winner will be notified. Will let you know when she replies.

    Lol Robin, it's ever so kind of my mortgage provider eh?! Honestly, September is shocking for birthdays! The ones we have left for this month are;

    11th - Me & SIL
    12th - Connor and cousin
    14th - next door neighbour's daughter and DS2 at a party from nursery
    15th - Cousin
    21st - Sister
    27th - Uncle
    30th - Friend

    That's 10 birthdays and only 3 are just cards, the rest all require gifts of varying degrees :eek:
