I hate buses :(

I was waiting for a bus to see my friend from the new parents group... the one I was waiting for (1pm) just didn't turn up. When the next one eventually came (130pm) it was one with small doors and steps up, and unless I folded the pram I couldn't get on.

I know it's my fault, but cos I'm knackered anyway I was getting frustrated at the pram and I couldn't do it. I can do it, but not there and then when I needed to :(

And the driver said well all the big door drop down buses are off the route today... so I've had to call my mate and cancel :(

I feel like such an idiot cos I couldn't fold my pram down but at the same time surely they shouldn't take *every* easy access bus off one route for the day?! How would disabled people get around?! ffs it was the bus to the airport! Sorry all Tamworth disabled people, if you're going to the airport or NEC today you'll have to get a taxi. :x

:cry: makes my already crappy morning even worse, I've spent like an hour and a half and got nowhere :(
 
right well he is happy on his mat so will prob have a few mins, or seconds as it seems to be today. He trew up his breakfast and lunch so he is a bit poorly. I just had to sucker his nose again :puke: it filled up the top half of it again poor little mite.

I really like this ours, more than we wanted to pay but we can always offer, plus needs no work doing :

that's a pretty looking house :) we are looking to buy but doubt we'll have enough for a deposit for a while :(
 
oooh I do like that JW so lovely inside!

What a nice kitchen diner too, nice and big for when you invite me up for dinner :wink:
 
very short post while D's lunch is warming..had to go into Derby today as having hair coloured tomorrow...

D went into mc donalds for the first time pooed.

went into the westfield centre again today so pooed yet again so took him into the baby change with the coloured lights..

great trip out for D :rotfl:
 
:wall: I'm having one of those days I think... I just changed Ryan and he hadn't finished his poo, so thought he'd do one last big squeeze all over my hand :wall:
 
Sorry girls no time to read & catch up :hug: just thought we should have things sorted for Tuesday (as I'm only on t'internet till Saturday anyway).....so:

Here is what I thought -

We could meet at the Cathedral which is Here (Google Map) The postcode for your route finder is: DE1 3GP

Then go to Slug & Lettuce for lunch (only a minute from the cathedral, very baby friendly and prices are reasonable - sandwich meals for about £4-£6 and bigger main meals for £5-£9ish) - I will reserve this when I pop into town tomorrow.

We can then go to the new Westfield shopping centre and have a mooch & a wander


Can we sort a time when we know what time everyone is getting to Derby? JM what time does your train get you in? L if you are able to come, would you be able to meet with Jaydesmummy at the station, you can there share a hackney cab into town (get dropped off at the Cathedral) shouldn't cost much to get in in a cab - but its a mission of a walk even if you know where you're going.... :D

Who'd driving? There are various parking options:

This shows the Parking Charges scroll down the page a little, and there is a downloadable map - if I were you I'd park in the Chapel Street Multi Storey, as its close enough to Cathedral & Slug, and easy enough to walk back to from Westfield, also, when you come out, its easy enough to get back onto A38/A52 to get your routes home.

Really gotta go now, I'll check back in & catch up on what I've missed when I'm back on later, just wanted to catch as many of you as I could with this post :D

If anyone who doesn't have my number yet wants it, just drop me a PM, might be useful to send me your so that if you do call or text I know who you are.....I;m trying to be organised here, are you all proud??

:hug:
 
Oh, and before I forget (cos I will on Tuesday) - iirc Chapel Street car park ONLY accepts the right money for parking, if you pay to much it doesn't give you any change (daylight robbery!!) so make sure you have change to pay for parking, you can get the overpayment refunded but you have to go to the Council House in person to request a refund?! Bar-stewards!!

JM, my trains get in every half an hour or so.. I'm not far away.

What sort of time do people want to meet up? Like 10 o clock early, or more like midday? Or 11 ish is a happy medium? Anytime is fine with me... but bear with me if I look a bit rough - depends how kind Ryan is to me the night before!

Emmylou my mate prob won't be coming, when I said Derby she was like omg mission, so I take that to mean she probably can't be bothered.. meh. Oh, and you already have my mobile number, cos I'm a mind reader lol.. :rotfl:
 
Hi all,

L, so sorry for your bad day, bloody buses, they sound sucky, I am a great one for looking around now and saying "well, that isn;t very baby friendly" One thing I hate is babychanging facilities without a toilet in the room :x how do they expect us to pee with a buggy in tow!!!!! This happened to me in a services up to Scotland and I ended up having to go to the far end toilet in the ladies and parking Thomas in front of me and peeing with the door open :shock: not that bad as I am not a prude, but still! Woah, went totally off topic there!!! I am sure Ryan will adapt to his cot soon, Thomas loved his straight away but he isn't overly bothered where he sleeps, maybe try putting the moses in for a couple of nights just to gt him used to the surroundings if he can still fit in - Thomas outgrew his very quickly!!

JW :cheer: :cheer: excellent news about the flat, you are very lucky as the housing market is crashing, so I say take the money and run :cheer: :cheer: I hope Oran starts to get better soon, poor snotty boy!! It sounds awful :( the house looks beautiful, looks to be quite similar taste to what you already have so that is good :cheer: Thomas is doing the same as Thomas locking arms and lifting up really high then lifting his bottom, but just not at the same time!!! We will get there though!

Kirls, your wedding pictures are absolutely stiunning, you look beautiful I bet A is so proud of his little family :hug: So sorry to hear that you and B are feeling rubbish, I hope you both get better soon, sometimes these things only last for 24 hours, so fingers crossed!

JM I am predicting 14pounds and nine ounces, they are supposed to slow down around now anyway. Jayde did well last night didn't she, I am really lucjy as Thomas is very predeictible at night, bed at half six up at abour seven for milk then sleep till nine then up we get, I can't believe how lucky we are with that as by the sounds of it a lot of you are still ahveing bad nights :bored: I don't think I could cope!

Cloud, how are things with you? I cannot beleive that D just feels the need to poo everywhere, I think it is histerical, it is almost like marking his territory and announcing to everyone that he has arrived!!!! Is he feeling better today?

V, I am getting a bit lacsadaisical at the posting, I just don't seem to have the time! I read but always forget what I have read when I come to post - not good!!! How are things in your neck of the woods?

Rach, good to see you online, I wouldn't worry too much about the rolling as I think all babies develop at their own rate, as long as he is happy and healthy, :hug:

Em, how are you and libby lovepops? You sound busy, well done you though getting everything organised for the meet, you are very efficient!! I can't remember what else you have said today :oops: :hug:

Trix, how are you doing?

:hug: to everyone else

Well, what a wally I was last night, I have a tendency to sleep walk, not all the time but it is unusual! My house has a train line going past it, not totally close but on occasions you can hear the trains, well last night I dreamed that the train had stopped on the tracks. The next thing I know I can hear a train so in my pretty little head I am convinced it is going to crash into the train that is stopped therefore crashing into my house, I ran into the nirsery grabbed Thomas and ran through to my bedroom again opened the blind to look, this was at 2am, I woke up as we were looking out the window, and though what the """" am I doing?!?!?!?!? Poor Thomas was looking all confused so I had to go and put him back to bed whilst apologising profusely to him for disturbing his sleep! :rotfl: :rotfl:

Today was a sad day :( I started work this afternoon :( I am working for my Dad's company and only have to go in when P is at hime to look after Thomas, so I am working tomorrow and Friday as well, but not next week, P works six on four off so it really isn't going to be too much. I found it so so so hard though, I have been out lots of times in the evening and left Thomas with P or my mum or dad but Thomas is sleeping then so I am not missing anything, I feel I am losing him which is ridiculous, my thinking is that I have carried him with me for nine months all on my own and then six months and now there are going to be times when I am not going to be there :( I came home though, gave him a huge cuddle then we went upstairs played in his nursery for half an hour (nappy off - which he loves!) then bathed him and put him to bed so we have had some fun!! I guess it is good that P is going to spend some time with him but I have warned Thomas not to do any "firsts" while I am at work!!!!!


If you have read all this post then I commend you, I seem to have rambled on a bit!!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:
 
Evening ladies :wave:
Wow, haven't I missed some happenings today!!
L - I hope you get a good nights sleep tonight, it is difficult when the mind starts to wander and won't stop ticking over, and then feeling tired doesn't exactly help with being patient during the day, I know that well!! I also get narked when things aren't baby friendly, but as the bus not wide enough for a buggy, you make a valid point about wheelchair access......surely its ilegal now not to have wheelchair access...on at least one service every hour or so??
I;m starting getting buses once we've moved, I can walk into town at the min so don't use buses, I hope they have a good one?!
Cloud - I can not believe how much poo D actually has, at least you know that area is functioning top notch...I think M is right about him marking his territory :rotfl:
KK- Will check the wedding pics out in a bit, I love the new Sammy pics, can't wait for another cuddle from him on Tues!! I hope you & B are feeling better, and that you get a good night tonight :sleep:
JW - Woohoo!! On the house sale, thats bloody marvellous, we are experiencing saturation of aoartments in Derby (in fact it was on the local news last night, complete with a shot of one of our boards :cheer: as we let them thats good cos people who can't shift 'em for sale, wanna let them out instead!!) so I think it is great that you have at least broke even (give or take fees etc) The house you like looks really nice!! I hope you can get a bargain and barter them to a price that suits you!!
M - Bless you having to start work today :hug: I'm sure Teej will keep all his firsts for when you are around as he is a total mummy's boy!! Its horrible to leave them, but it so lovely to come home to them and get a big smile when they know you're back!! I was half expecting your story of the night to end up with you stood by the railway :shock: so I have to say I was quite relieved that it ended indoors, bet Teej was very confuzzled though!
V - Said it all in PM really, but re: Jan/Feb think we should just throw a few dates into the air and see which one fits for people to be able to come along, so excited!
JM - What time is your train getting you in on Tuesday? Think we should arrange meet time around that...I think Jayde is 14lb 8oz
Trix - Hope you * Milliepops are ok, what you been up to today?
Nic - Where are you? Have you been working today?
Jo - Love to you & the princesses, how's school going now for Jaycee?
Rach - Lovely to see you on hun, many congrats on Christophers teeth :cheer:
:hug: :hug:

Not much to say about me really, I have handed over about a thrid of my work load as of next monday, so thats good, managed to get that organised today with the bloke who's taking it on..... :cheer:
Gonna get 2 hours work done and 2 hours packing done now :bored:
Oooh, and I've almost finished orgaianising our winter trip to Ireland, we are going to a friends wedding on Sat 1st Dec, so gonna fly out 28th Nov and come back 3rd Dec and make a break of it.....excluding taxes the flights are £2.99 each way!! With taxes its £40 each total journey & £14 for Libby, I think thats a bargain, do you?

Anyway, gonna pack while I finish watching the Restaurant final!! :cheer:
 
Hiya :wave:
:shock: theres way too much for me to remember :oops: :lol:

Me and Keeley are good.. i'm so tired all the time now :bored:
We have another settling in session tomorrow and i'm not looking forward to it :cry:
I think tomorrow even tho this sounds awful i gonna make sure Keeley is happy then just go and not tell her :| as she was fine the other day until i said "bye"

And omg its been nearly a year since i became a single mummy.. wil be a year on 7th december (how sad am i for remembering :oops: )

Anyone gettin ready for christmas?
I have ordered my xmas tree from Studio and Keeley has 12 presents already :shock: :lol:

Hope everyone is ok :hug: :hug: :hug:
 
eek i'v got brain-worm i cant remember everything on the last 2 pages :oops:

but cloud, u do make me LOL with ur dylans poo stories! u could do a "poo of the day" thread and write where hes pood each day hahaha!

hugs 2 everyone, but extra 2 missac 4 starting work (boo!) and cloud and leckershell 4 having a crappy day :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

iv not been doing anything extraordinary 2day but we hav been feeding millie baby rice for her tea for the last 3 evenings- omg the expresiion on her face = priceless! at first she raises one side of her upper lip like a sneer and her eyes go wide she looks like shes just sat on a big wet poo! but after the first mouthful she loves it and reaches for the spoon for more. then she blew a raspberry and sprayed my boyf with "gross tit milk spunk" as he called it LOL!

he loves it tho coz he gets 2 feed her for the first time ever, then he gives her water from a bottle after. as shes been only breast-fed-from-the-source until now its nice 4 him 2 get 2 do it.
 
JM - Won't let me onto the page, if I say we could meet at 11.30....would that work? You'd need to get a train that dropped you at Derby at about 11.15 ish then get a taxi, in? You can meet Leckershell at the station, and if Nic is coming you can meet Nic there too?
Will the 3 of you with 3 buggies fit in a hackney cab I wonder? If not you might need to get 2 taxi's?

Trix - Glad Millie likes her rice, and your Boyf gets to help feed her, that must be lovely for him, Libby does that funny 'what the?!$%@' face when she starts getting fed, even now!!

Nic....know I just spoke to you but PLEASE say you'll come...no pressure, but I won't speak to you again if you don't (well I will, of course, but I really want you & Keeley to come :pray: )

Right, back to work & packing for me, C just went to Sainsbury's to ask for some boxes, and one of the lads just went in the back and brought him loads out....how good is that!!

Oh, and I got a new laptop today, as I broke my other one, and PC can't come to the new house so :( bye bye PC & :wave: :cheer: hello new laptop!! :cheer:
 
em theres 1 that ges in at 11 then the next one is 11.30 so do you think the earlier one will be bettrer :D i cant wait now
 
I've mentioned this to Natalie (tangerinedream/natalieandjake) and she's gonna have a look on here in the morning as thinks she may be free. She's only in Nottingham and may well be on train too...

Don't mean to jinx it but ryan's been in the cot since 7 and not woken yet :cheer: We've had him in the moses basket in the cot for about a month, and we're definate that we're not putting him back in now, it's the cot or nothing even if it means he cries for a bit, though admittedly he's not been too bad with it except waking loads last night.
 
Jm - Get the one that gets you in at 11am that'd prob be best I reckon...its exciting stuff!! Woohoo!! Only 6 more sleeps girls!!
Nic - Where have your avatar and siggy gone :( I need to see the beautiful Keeley!! Didn't answer your question before - but yes, I'm already preparing for xmas, and have easily about 20 pressies bought for people.
L - Thats cool - that would actually make 2 taxi's a little more justifiable, you'll be having amini mini-meet at the train station first :lol: Hope Ryan does well tonight in the cot :pray:
 
HI all

sooooooo much has happened todAY

SO HUGS FOR THOSE WHO NEED THEM AND 00PS SORRY FOR SHOUTING :hug: :hug:

and :cheer: for the rest

will just talk about me now as there was too much to comment on :rotfl:

I invited A over for the evening i told him to get here for 5 bring a kfc he could spend some time with D then we could talk after D was in bed.

I wanted to know if i was scared of A which I'm not..he has not been taking his meds properly and we talked about what has happened how things can change.

It is so hard to know what the right thing to do is..I miss the guy i have spent the last 6 weeks with not the one i was with on Sunday. he seems to have genuinme remorse and shame...I have said if i have him back and it ever happnes again there will be no more thoughts about can we resolve it or not and i will take him to court..he does know this and he knows i mean it.

I can see a way forward for us as a couple but the questions in my head

what if i get it wrong and D witnesses more violence or even worse experiences it.

I am not sure how i feel about A now..i had a hug but didn't want to kiss him it felt like i wasn't close enough to do that.

he has gone now for the night now so have to think more :think:

D waking will post about him when he has updated me
