    Afternoon everyone, sorry I've not been around much lately, I'm working like a flippin mad woman at the moment. I've got a day off today though and next week the tour goes out (without me) so things will quieten down a little

    Lovely weather innit? I've been stuck in a studio for the past week and have barely seen daylight never mind the weather.

    Hello Toto :hello:
    How are you and the bump?

    I saw OH last weekend and a great many fat black babies with gorgeous grins. I kept saying "can I have one?" He of course said No. But as I am WAY too old there's no chance anyway. :sad:

    Hey olive, we are good. I'm finally feeling a bit better, the sickness isn't as bad as it was. Bloody exhausted all the time though. I had another scan today and I'm booked in for the CVS next week.

    My daughter found the scan photo the other day, the nosey cow was rooting around the office lookin for a pen. So, the cat is out of the bag. No more smoking the pipe and downing a daily bottle of vodka for me then :D It's funny that her list of dos and don'ts doesn't include don't clean up, empty the dishwasher, take out the bins.... however my coffee/sugar intake is monitored closely :rotfl:

    My babies were brown (actually still are:rotfl: though no longer babies) and incredibly good looking. Popeye and I though would produce very pale plump and hairy babies, so a def. no no.

    And I absolutely CAN'T WAIT to be a granny, even though I wouldn't wish parenthood on my children just yet. And I'd be just like your DD.
    no booze, no chemicals, :eek: no to salt and sugar too:eek:

    I live quite near you Toto.......so I may be round to babysit :o or just drool....

    Hey Toto good to hear from you I had been thinking about you and actually posted earlier in this thread asking if anyone had 'seen you about'. Glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better. XX El

    hi all - back from work - shame I missed the troll - I had it almost collared in his last guise!!

    Good to see you Toto - I was wondering only this morning about you and how you are getting on.

    It was too hot in the office :( Not much air gets in and what does is quite high up. Amazing the difference outside as there is quite a stiff breeze!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Oh joy, due to the lovely weather and getting lots of washing dried on the line, my ironing pile is so huge that even the mountain goats on the top have just called search and rescue!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    ooh Olive don't offer to babysit around here , I'll take you up on it (nightly):rotfl:

    I think the best looking babies in the entire world are mixed race ones who have the big chubby grins with the dark ringlet hair. If I see one like that out and about it's all I can do to stop myself running off with it. WHo said you are too old? I'm too bloody old for all of this, seriously. Maybe not in as far as mother nature is concerned but blimey the looks I get when people ask how old my other kids are and I say my eldest is almost 18 :D There are days when i seriously doubt my sanity.

    And, you are welcome to come and have a drool when this one comes along, especially between the hours of midnight and 8am :rotfl:
