    Hi peeps, no I haven't forgotten about the meet idea, it's just my plans are up in the air at the mo and I don't want to organise it and then have to miss it myself! I should be a bit clearer in a couple of weeks and will then email everyone to start the ball rolling; just wanted to check that noone else was interested?

    So far on the list are:
    KPC
    Delly
    FFM
    JustMarried
    Raph
    and possibly BB and Pet (go on, you know you want to :D)

    If I've missed anyone off, I'm sorry - just publicly berate me on the forum and I'll add your name. If anyone missed the posts and has no idea what I'm talking about, we're organising a weekend get together for the people on this thread, possibly at a spa! Everyone is welcome, and it would be lovely to meet you in person, just PM me your email address.

    Vix, got a feeling you were interested, and Victory - send me your emails (I'll double check I don't already have them :o)
    BTW, meant to wish you happy monthiversary and forgot!

    Hi bails, I am very interested and love the idea in principle, it's just my health can't be relied on to be a front runner in the idea, more of a hopeful tagger alonger. Include me in the loop definitely.

    I reckon it's how many children can you plaster in stickers in 5 minutes (children at top of stairs, sticker supply at bottom)

    thanks everyone for the hugs and understanding ,have decided that putting the weight back on will help no-one,so I'm right back on track will let you know wednesday how I have done ,will keep it to myself as far as DD is concerned and hopefully when she see's me looking better she will get motivated herself.So what do I do ? I gather you print it big in a colour is that right ?,and Granny will put me on the list.that seems funny saying granny as I haven't had one since I was 14 [many moons ago] suggs hello from a newbie have read your story brilliant so inspiring am only up to page 5 but going to read the whole thread to see if I can get to know you all cos I feel a bit of an outsider at the moment .just put sticker on the fridge little pickers need bigger knickers [how true] ;)

    yes def want to come ot the meet, without a shadow of a doubt, to thank you all personally would be fab.

    suggs can't remember your kids ages but here is what I did the other day....as you know my mother is something else but my son only sees the fab gran, the fun gran, the lovely gran etc and kids should do to a degree, we should protect them in a bubble and make life seem better than it is but... sometimes, it is also good for them to realise that the other person is not such an angel with a halo all the time , that we are not always the baddies, that there is two sides to every story and both should be seen and told,so in that mind set , not in malice, revenge, hatred or any negatives I showed my own son an email my mother had sent me that was vicious, vile, unnecesary and showed her as she can be..difficult, impossible, uncaring and unjustifiably nasty.
    My sister, who is now divorced had the most horrendous letters/texts/emails from her now ex which have to be seen to be believed, so she made a conscious decision (now been divorced 8 years) to keep them for the future of her only son, if the ex ever disputes something she now has the proof of how his father can be, if he asks to see them she will show them, my sister refuses to take all the blame and we all should do that, everyone has a part to play and no one is either the angel or the devil.
