Ew snotty managers are the worst! Spit in his coffee

he's usually pretty decent. but i'm the only girl in the IT department here and they all do their 'bonding' stuff which involves taking the piss out of each other etc which i don't get included in. and i've never needed to know more about the phones than i do. and i think it was a bit of a harsh line to take. to be honest, if i've been doing it wrong for over two years then they probably should have pointed it out earlier. as it is i've had no complaints, am perfectly capable of doing my job and just want to get out of here.

Mmmm chocolate - unfortunately I don't have any here with me at work. However, I have just had a slice of the banana cake I made yesterday which was quite lovely even if I do say so myself I should imagine I may indulge in a further slice with an options hot choc when I get home after work tonight - only 2 and three quarter hours to go

Also I have just counted up and from tomorrow I only have 48 working days left at work

I shall keep my fingers firmly crossed for insomnipapa's exam results

Babyhope - I hope you have a lovely weekend away. As hard as it is to say no I would stick to your plan and spend the weekend with just you and DH - as you said it might be the last chance you get for some quality one-on-one alone time before LO arrives. You can always arrange to do something special with DS to make up for it on another day.

I am pleased to hear that your LO is bobbing around again Katie - my LO throws a tantrum and I get really bad nausea if I don't eat breakfast!

on your new pram Maybebaby. I love lime green but OH is not so keen. We are quite restricted when it comes to choice of pushchairs and prams as OH is very tall (6ft6in = 2m) and most handles are only 1m high so poor OH will be bent over double to push most prams. The ones with extra height tend to be really expensive and I refuse to spend more than £200 as I will probably end up buying a lightweight stroller when LO is 12-18mths old anyway. I have seen a nice european pushchair on ebay which is suitable from birth which is within budget so will probably end up going with that.

Hope&Faith - I hope you poorly pooch gets better soon. My LO still has quiet days - last week she was quiet for 4-5 days on the trot but has perked up since the weekend.

Abz - dried fruit (apricots, prunes, raisins etc) is good for iron levels.

PG - try tickerfactory.com, they have tickers you can customise for special event/occasions/holidays which might work for counting down to your mat leave.

Oh - if only I had thought to bring more cake to work with me :doh:
