    Hi Bluebelle 72
    This is really urgent, but the best thing to do is to start a new thread. You can do that by going to the list of thread where you found this thread, at the top of the list is a button saying New Thread - press that and start your own, you'll get many more responses, and much more help, that way. This is hypno's own diary thread, long term, and of course she and the people like me that read it will be sympathetic, but lots more people won't see it cos they don't happen to read hypno's diary. Just cut and paste your post, and stick it in a new thread. Good luck. I can't help with what you've written I'm afraid, I don't know anything about that topic, but others will.

    Good luck

    It's not that anyone will mind you posting on here, I promise - it's just that by starting your own thread, you'll have the best chance of as many people as possible reading/helping. Good luck xx

    Right, I am going to be very naughty and do a very non-dfw thing in a sort of dfw way.....

    The children have broken up from school, and we have booked a table at the local American Diner type place, but we have 2 x buy one burger meal, get another one free.

    So I have told the children they can have anything they want as long as it is a burger!! DS says he wants Steak - typical!!! Of course you can imagine my response!!

    So, we are walking down there, not having starters or desserts and using vouchers - hopefully it won't be too expensive, but I just fancied a change, and my kitchen is too much of a mess to tackle right now!!

    Sorry :o

    I don't blame you Hypno, I would do the same, only having 3 weeks left of pregnancy I would welcome not cooking any day of the week!! And my whole house is a tip at the moment, still waiting for the said "nesting" instinct to kick in so I can do a Taz round the house! :D

    Oh and thank you very much for the invite to your diary, much appreciated. :T

    a 16 year gap ooh er, I'm not sure I'd have the energy.

    Present husband & I brought our own children to the marriage, and many thought we'd indulge in a bit of baby making. It was tempting, but we'd made the decision not to make the other children's lives any more turbulent than we were already doing, (Long story, but they did have enough on their plates) so didn't. Now we're enjoying a marriage-backwards and are going to do things we couldn't or wouldn't do with children (overseas job being one).

    Good luck, if you lived near me I'd want to be round for a cuddle (with the baby :rotfl: ) and I'd feel broody.

    Wow - good luck BlueBelle! There is an 18 year gap between my younger sister and my elder sister.....! They get on well though, even if they have got wildly different music tastes and other such influences as you can imagine!

    hypno - I hope everything went well for you today and that you had a good time at the American Diner. :)
