HEY NOW!!! 

I do believe I just got a pubic snaffle.

Wrong on so many levels. 

Unless the men on the forum are using their imaginations.

I have a good imagination 

You dirty dirty boy. 

    ordered two fairy jars from findmeagift.

I just literally pulled this face

T-shirts for twins (think about it) 

I like ^^

Me too

Oooh forgot to post earlier, it seems the sausages I mentioned earlier in the week were fine  Another 1.5lb off this week so that's 6lbs in 2 weeks.  Of course I came out of weigh in huffing that it wasn't 2.5lbs off because I wanted my half stone award  I'll get it next week

Ells nice one

Thanks Jen, I'm hoping I stick with it this time.  Dieting is so hard but so far I'm loving all the the things I've made and the biggest plus is my eldest is also loving it all and he's lost a few lbs too which he has needed to do.  He's not fat, just carrying a little extra but he hasn't a clue he's eating diet food but has told me he is loving my new cooking.

That's good about eldest Ells, is he sitting the SAT's/11+ atm? Amber has just finished hers... She said she is looking forward to the weekend bless her.

He did his transfer test in November and got the results in February (B2) so we applied for the College he wanted to go to and we're now waiting (im)patiently for a yes or no.  Any other year a B2 would be a definite yes but this year the results were better than usual for the region AND one of the town's secondary schools closed down so there will be more applicants for the College.

I think we should know by the end of May.

Bless Amber (my eldest was to be Amber had he been a girl!), I think girls stress more about things like this whereas my wee boy was so easy going about it all we thought nah he's not passing it, he couldn't even be bothered to study.  Can't say how proud (and shocked, tbh) we were when we saw he had passed  Good luck to her.....will it affect her school choice if she doesn't get above a certain grade?  Some kids sit the test even though they are applying for a school which doesn't need exam results for admissions.

Well done Ells - there are some lovely recipes in the latest SW mag. I'm gonna have a go at the pulled pork on bbq sauce I think. My weight loss us agonisingly slow but that's just how it is. I've been 1,5 lbs away from 2.5 stone (target) weight loss since February!!

No it won't affect her school admission. She was however put in for lvl 6 SATs.. (which meant she had 3 tests today where as most others only had 1) They are finished now though so it's bowling with school tomorrow afternoon

So does that mean you still don't know what school your eldest is going to in Sept?

www.minimins.co.uk (maybe it's com) is a brilliant site for recipes Sooz.....so many talented people on there tweaking recipes to fit SW.  I think I'll be a slow loser too and that's what bores me.  But I suppose slow and steady wins the race

Yep!  I am really nervous now, I hadn't really given it much thought the past few months with other things going on but it's an agonising wait now because we are planning on moving aswell so I want to get somewhere nearer whatever school he is at so that's on hold until we get the letter. 

Good luck Ells, I hope you get what he is hoping for I thought my wait til Mar 1st was bad!

I'm still waiting for my daughter to decide what she's going to do in September, she has applied to 5 universities and has been accepted by all of them (if she passes) She's been to look round some of them and decided on Leeds, now all the rooms have gone on the main campus  I've been telling her to hurry up and pick, so she went to look at the next nearest and said it was horrible.

Last week she turned round and said I've decided to put it off for a year as I don't feel ready to be on my own that far from home and have decided to do a year long apprenticeship in a school, I've told her She's got to do what feels right for her no one else can decide for her

She went to see her tutor about enrolling for the apprenticeship and he said She's to good for it and needs to go straight to university, she still hasn't made her mind  up, I don't want to push her to if She's unhappy about it, don't really know what to say to her, it will be my fault whatever she decides 

Not a good start to the day

 I'm currently waiting for a manager to ring me from the online bathroom supplies.

I was so chuffed with myself last week ordering all my fab stuff at great prices.

Why do they give you delivery dates and them mot deliver? 

I've scheduled builders/plumber/tiler/electrician around these deliveries and they have cocked up AGAIN!!

Any money I've saved has been eaten up in wasted time

and man hours.

I feel bad - the girl I was dealing with was lovely - bent over backwards to help etc.

The thing is - it's all a bit pointless when it's not right isn't it?

Rant over.

I've already posted this in the snaffle thread but I love it so much -I'm posting here.

Still no baby.  

Aimee that sounds stressful, I'm sure whatever she does she will thrive at it.

Soozy

Come on baba!!

They sent her home from hospital at 5 this morning.  Contractions were at 5 mins apart but still only 1 cm dilated.  He'll come when he's ready.

Maybe hanging on for some good weather Cinds

I bet she's so fed up

See my lad couldn't wait to get out of there. No Xbox you see. 

all my children waited for meal times, eldest for tea, second for lunch and youngest for breakfast 

Any chance of some supper 

When doing some gardening today, I spotted some of my flowers had died. As a mark of respect, I've tied a member of my family to a lamppost.

 Brilliant, pirate! 

all three of mine were lunchtime babies 11.40 - 12.05 - 12.30
