January SnowAngels 2012, 2nd and 3rd Tri

[Rees]

Pumpkin - I've requested to join, I'm Leigh and I have my lovely late kitty as my pic

16mommy2b - I'll go and add you to the list

Girls, I can't believe how quiet it's been in here!

We're mostly packed and move in the morning, this time tomorrow we'll be hastily trying to pack the rest of our crap up! Gonna take a while

I don't know when I'll be back, been told by Sky it might take 2/3 weeks to get our phone back up and running as well as our broadband, we also have to wait until Friday morning until they come round and install our sky dish - the last tenants took the dish and the wire with them when they left, so I'm not impressed!

I'll keep popping on with my phone every couple of days to update the list and have a catch up, although I do get daily emails with all the posts (yay for having a smartphone!)

Hope you all have a good few weeks and start finding out what team you're on and start feeling nice big kicks! xxx

Lintu - you're an onion!

Just realised I missed your post - what cross stitch are you doing?

I know what you mean about moods too, I've been such a moody cow it's unreal! OH is the same though, he's stressed about moving and keeps taking it out on me, can't wait until we're all settled and in the new house, he's doing my head in and makes me just want to scream!

Good luck with the scan today!

Duejan-the riots started with a group of people protesting against shooting of a guy by the police. It spread then as groups saw the inefficiency of the law and that people were getting away with looting shops. Some newspapers said it was people dissatisfied with government and state of economy. I personally don't think these people in the end were protesting just opportunists. It was a horrible few days with people who make you ashamed to ge British. Suppose people have different opinions so maybe people didn't want to offend?

Did no one answer your question about the riots yet hun? Basically last Saturday/Sunday night, I think it was, hundreds of people in London started to smash shop windows and grab the goods, battling with police and starting fires. Originally it was supposed to be a protest over the police killing a man, but it's doubtful that the hundreds of rioters that joined in later actually had any idea what they were rioting about, and just jumped on the band wagon to cause some chaos and grab themeselves some stolen goods.

It spread across the country to various other towns on Sunday and Monday night and the stopped as suddenly as it started. The government have pledged that anyone caught on cctv will be arrested and charged and courts have been running all night in order to process all those arrested. Not sure of the exact numbers but we're in the thousands now for people arrested across the country. Sentences have been around 4-6 weeks for the looting.

3 men were killed in Birmingham thought to be protecting their property and 1 man was killed in London when he was attempting to put out a fire that the rioters had started in bins near his house. I think they are in the process of arresting/charging the culprits for those crimes and hopefully they won't see the light of day again for a long time.

Haha, brilliant! I so know that feeling!

 

[TillyMoo]

Good luck in all the upcoming scans ladies.

Our biggie scan is next week & I'm super excited

Re folks leaving the thread - try not to get upset - I think everyone logs on here for different reasons & we all have different expectations. Some come on for a rant, some for support, some to give updates, some to say hello etc. I personally come on for a bit of reassurance & only post every now & then. When some of us post multiple times throughout the day it's easy for some of these posts to get passed - although I must say Rees does a brilliant job keeping up! Hope the move goes well Rees when you get round to reading this!

Yeah, I'm a mango! Yum! xx

 

[truly_blessed]

Tee hee.. know what you mean truly. Seems a bit surreal sometimes. Growth must be pretty rapid at the minute. Are you still taking your omegas every now and again? I must admit I haven't been taking anything on a regular basis since 12 weeks-ish, eating enough good foods though so should be covered

I haven't taken omega 3 at all, I started but they kept repeating on me and I had to stop. I am still taking the pre-natals though as the mid wife advised it was fine to carry on with those if they were also a multi vitamin like Pregnacare, which mine are. It's 50-50 at the minute as to whether I remember to take them or not. I try to eat healthy but the thought of fruit at the minute just isn't appealing to me. DF cooks most of the time so he makes sure I get my fair share of greens and veg and I've been having fruit juice and smoothies to try and make up for the lack of fruit.
