Woohoo, Huge Congratulations!!!
I know I'm not contributing much but still following. We should do a Mse meet up again, little kavics and I will be in the country 3 times this year (29sept-3rd oct, 8th oct-11th oct, 7-10th nov) if you are all free. I might have some exciting news as well: i met a nice guy who asked us to move to Switzerland to be with him so seriously thinking about giving up our lives here and make another move to give it a go. He is Hungarian but works in Zurich, it is so strange to like and love someone after Losing Leo but I think it really is time to move on and let someone in.

October 8th-11th would work best for me. We've got a holiday in Somerset/Devon at the end of September and we're looking at the end of October for running away to get hitched (may I just say, the idea of a pregnant wedding in Vegas is making me so happy on the tacky factor)
But that is such lovely news Kavics, I think you're right to give a fresh start a goIf you feel ready then it must be time, just listen to your heart/gut as they're rarely wrong! It's about time you had some more happiness in your lives xx

Wow Cinny, what exciting news. Hope you are keeping well and not being sick too much in the morning.
I've been to the CAB this morning to discuss cc payments and juggling money. I've calculated that we are short by about £200 pm and that is just to make the min payments and no Christmas. So I am trying to come up with a new plan, selling stuff etc. I will be getting a little bit of shut up money as part of the negotiations, so I need to work out am I going to use it to pay cc's or to live on till I hopefully get a new job.Total debt Feb 2012 = £54354.11 😳

Congratulations Cinny! Wonderful news
I'm glad you're terrible at keeping secrets! If there's a meet planned for Oct then surely it would be rude not to do it in Vegas and crash the wedding :rotfl:
Hope NIMs wages are sorted now? His company should pay for any bank or late payment charges incurred as a result, sometimes it's even included in contracts/handbooks so worth checking. Is everyone else getting paid on time? Is it definitely an admin mess up and not a cash flow problem?

That's wonderful news Kavics! I'm so glad you're getting some happiness back in your life! Another adventure sounds great, Baby K will be multilingual at this rate!
8th-11th October for a meet suits me too, we'll be in Florida on the November dates!
Cinny, if you're going to Vegas at the end of October, you totally need to do a stop in Orlando (since UK- Vegas is a loooong flight for a preggo!) for a couple of days as a honeymoon and meet up with a totally cool group already there! :cool:

Hope you get a bit of a pay off to help, ROTE. So sorry you're in this situation
Thanks for all the messages!I went to the Sure Start centre this morning to get my freebies and it feels KINDA REAL. Have my first appointment with the midwife on the 22nd of July which feels forever away?!
Are parents do know though, Archers! We were in so much shock we decided we had to tell someone to enforce on us how real it is :rotfl: Telling my Grandparents this afternoon, as I still go and clean for them every week and they need to know why I'm going to become slower and more forgetful!
When is it you're there, Birdie? Because that sounds amazing! We might not have a Halloween wedding after all as OH made the shocking discovery that it's his football team vs my Dad's football team that weekend. So I've been told that weekend is off the cards now :rotfl:
Just wish I was further along so I could start buying cute things!! I mean, look at all this adorable stuff. Also, don't know if Little-Z needs any more Disney clothes for your holiday?
eta: it's taken us a life time but we finally broke through to another page!!0
