    Hi eddi,

    Good to see you back! You've missed a few Debt Free celebrations (including my own:j) and lots of baby bumps news (ignore kerri - I'm not preggers!:rotfl:)

    Looking forward to seeing your official update :T

    Hi eddi,

    :rotfl: yes I determined that it actually wasn't you. I did howl with laughter at your post about the cats in bed. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    So, after getting through slightly less than 100 pages I think the general goings on is something like this:

    1. LOADS of people are pregnant. What's going on????! Huge congrats to HelenPie, SpagBol, JoJo and Kerri :T (is that the correct list?)

    2. LOADS of people have become debt free (I forgot to write some down and don't have the heart to go through the pages again. I know one is Kerfuffle) :T :j :beer:

    3. Several people have been to France on hollibobs (myself included)

    4. Kerri has a little business that's doing well which is great news (note to self: must go G+) and Mr Kerri has a marvellous result on his degree and I think a new job.

    5. Lots of new members :hello: hello and good luck to you all

    6. Several people have oddly behaving pets - generally cats (myself included).

    I'll do an official update of my DF figure when I get paid on Monday as it'll take me over the thousand paid mark :D I've missed the chatter on the forum but it's like P!nterest ... you go on for half hour and 2 or 3 hours later you wonder what happened to the day :o

    :wave: Nice to see you again Eddi, it's good to have you back. It's good to see that your debt has been going in the right direction even whilst you've been busy with the OU sometimes life just gets in the way of goals :rotfl:

    Thanks for noticing and remembering my debt free status, onwards and upwards with the mortgage now :eek:

    Our age gaps will be very similar :) I was 27, 30 and will be 35 when this one is born. How have you found the age gaps as they get older? Am slightly worried about the youngest being left out but as they are all the same sex hope they will find things in common :D I suppose they just have to get on with it anyway!


    they all doted on her when she was small but it has become more difficult as she is now almost 14 and they have all left home so she is like an only child. she misses them loads.

    we spoil her and do fun things with her but we are old farts and she would rather be with her siblings understandably x

    Ah see all mine are boys so I expect they will all live at home until they are well into their 30s! :rotfl::rotfl: (Although I will be trying to boot them out as soon as they turn 18 I'm sure!)

    What's your total Bedsit Bob and I will update the spreadsheet.

    SOrry everyone I've just realised I haven't updated the front page for ages so will do that after work.:o

    GOOD NEWS!!

    I have won a free table at a mum2mum market so we are trying to get a stall's worth of stuff together to make some pennies. Fab that it is free so any sale will be profit. I am buying a pram and a swing second hand from friends so hope to get some money to pay for those.:T
