Not sure what to expect, other than some sleepless nights and hard work, but we're sure it's gonna be great.

That is certainly good news. Congratulations to you both.
We shall, in due course, be requiring photos and don't forget to let us know have you are both coping whilst you wait.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Well, after having quite a scare with him over the weekend, our youngest is going into respite tonight and our eldest is staying over at nanna's so we're going to have 2 whole nights on our own. Despite our initial concerns about it, there's no guilt to worry about either now because he loves his time at the respite centre and always gets very excited when we tell him he'll be going there because he's 'been such a good boy...'
Without wishing to bring any negative thoughts into a happy place, it does make us realise how important the overstretched respite service is, how lucky we are to get what time we're allocated and how much more difficult life must be for those who have no such help.

The tax man should he take to big a share! Nice one Snoopz getting a bonus in the current climate is good work and gives me a little more confidence about asking my boss for a little increase.

I'll start the bidding - but I want to sign it
New cossie from M&S - it tucks me in where needed and isn't frumpy at all - so I get to get back in the water - brilliant!

My uncle sent me a signed photo of Jimmy Greaves (to me on it ) in his Spurs kit.

Really?
I was delighted just to have Dennis Mortimer's autograph with some others.
Hehe - are you going to put it away or get it framed?
