Hi I have joined the baby clubs. They are so fab! Got loads of free stuff! Lots of points at Boots too for stuff I would've got anyway!
Thanks T

Right I'm feeling a bit more posiitive today! I've arranged for some wine for when my sister is down from duty free so will only cost £5 for 2 bottles of nice-ish plonk. I also plan on dragging dh into town to go to the bank and get a few last bits we need. Also need to go to Asda to get some veg/meat etc. for when ds is here. I'm hoping to make fahitas as last time I made the tortillas myself and they were SO yum! We are going to walk via Tescos and see if there are any deals first. I've checked Aldi for veg so I know what to get there. Unfortunately my Asda doesn't seem to apply to mysupermarket! Last time I went all the deals were wrong- very annoying!!! Oh well! Also got to pick up a parcel from the post office- cue great excitement! I wonder what it is!!! I hope it's something good!
Still waiting for the baby (of course) - scrabble didn't work! (To much head scratching and confusion from dh!) So on to pineapples now. Yumyum!
I'll post back to update totals once we've been to town etc.

Hi Jak how are you doing? Have you started nesting? I think I only nested because I was so bored it was the only thing I could think of doing!!! IYKWIM. Any news on the visa front?

Walk, spicy food, clary sage oil in your bath, walk, nipple tweaking bounce on your birth ball if you have one.
In the meantime try and rest when you can. New babies are hard work.MF aim 10th December 2020 :j:eek:MFW 2012 no86 OP 0/20000
