I have returned from Poland. When I was away, we went to the zoo and I found these guys. I told them where you all are so fingers crossed they know now.

Did you release them from the zoo so they could get here, code?

I thought about it, but they were near the entrance and I thought they might not let me go and see the giraffes and elephants if I let the storks out. But I told them to tell their pals in the wild.

We're at our local zoo all the time but they don't have storks.

Earlier today an old lady tried to give me her seat on the bus because she thought I was pregnant.

FET planned for Wednesday. Starting pessaries this evening, not a great fan of them but all for a good cause. Sneaking away for a few days now so will catch up with everyone next week. Xxx

Hmmm, just realised that these were Polish storks and I don't know the Polish for "Bring my forum friends babies please." That wasn't my best plan. :rotfl:

Good luck GTS

Loving all the t-rex pics (that clapping one had me :rotfl: at work!)

picklekin - hope you had a lovely holiday xx

Part Mouse - belated birthday wishes for you, I can offer one of these if it'd help at all? :bdaycake: xx

Don't know what to think about the royal baby really, on the one hand I'm kind of happy for them but on the other hand, there's a bit of me that feels exactly the same as tea, why can't they just eff right off - there's people on here (and other places) that've been trying a helluva lot longer than they have!

pink - hope the next few days fly by for you, I've got all my bits crossed for Monday xx

GTS - glad your scan went well and excellent news on the ET date! You'll be two days ahead of me as my ET is planned for Friday 19th and I start the delightful pessaries on Sunday night We only have one frostie to defrost though so I'm hoping it thaws okay and is usable xx

code - you are just the sweetest most lovely lady ever! :A xx
I don't think it matters at all that they were polish storks, hopefully the good old jungle drums will work anyway


Hugs to you all and hope you all have lovely weekends xx
