    Raining here too - again!! :mad:

    My workmates have just announced that we are going to a night out in fancy dress next month.. anyone any ideas? Theme is film characters.. I'm petite with short hair (I guess I could get a wig but I'd probably get fed up with it during the night).. oh and female :p

    Petite...short hair... sounds like Maria out of the Sound of Music to me.

    Have a look at some of the fancy dress websites for ideas. So of the costumes are really cheap to.

    Have fun I love fancy dress. My cousins Hen night was fancy dress. I went 30's style carlton. It was wonderful.

    Ooooh, I LOVE babies!!! I'm so excited for you Laura! We tried loads of things to induce Natasha, she eventually came out after a tin of pineapple (I know, it's supposed to be fresh pineapple, but we were improvising lol) and a...*cough*....you know.... :o

    My friend has gone into labour this morning, haven't heard anything from her yet, but I hope she's okay.
