Gordon Bennett! Winge, winge, winge!!

Funny thing about the little beggars is that they'll come out when they're good and ready, and not a second before! the docs tried evicting my little twinnies three weeks before due date.............. but they were having none of it!!! Of course, they're male - therefore they're stubborn anyway!!!! But they came out when they were ready.......... e.g., when I was sooooooooooooo hideously fat that I could barely walk!!!

Anyway Lula, you haven't said whether you'll carry all the extra bags yet!

[Lula]

thats a big no, we are having men there are we not? if they are not going to pay for the shopping then they have to carry it lol perhaps we should invest in one of those granny shopping trolleys lol

[caro]

I have learnt from lugging overnight bags round London at previous meets and am bringing a small case with wheels, even though my nightie and toothbrush will not fill it. You can use that for your shopping Lula, or if you think you'll need it I'll bring the huge one instead.

[Lula]

LOL Caro thanks, I have the same sort of case, should be able to fit quite a bit in there

[Bookworm]

Hedgey, you are in my thoughts at the oddest moment...

I was in Aldi yesterday and they have bottles of Gluwhein, so of COURSE, you popped into my head!

I can just imagine Caro and Lula with their matching shopping trolleys.

[caro]

You can't put anything in my case for that remark Bookie.

It's a good job I was only joking then!

I'll give you my number(s) before the meet though. That way, you can phone me when you arrive at Piccadilly so I can whizz round to the Crescent station for you.

Is the case just for lime?!

[caro]

Changing at Stockport. Salford at 11.14 and the Crescent at 11.39. Case is for limes and I found some spices for mulled wine if anyone fancies that. I will bring some wine as well as the spices before Bookie or MTM accuse me of being tight. Mostly it's for Lula's shopping though.

[Lula]

LOL no one is ever going to believe that I dont really do shopping

[caro]

LOL, me neither. Never got any money which is why I can't get my head round decorating and furnishing my house downstairs from scratch after the flood. Great opportunity but I buy things and end up regretting it. I can't believe how much it all costs! Or at least the stuff I want.

[hedgey06]

Ooooooh Caro, I can't get round to re-decorating my own house........ and I haven't even had the floods to contend with

I'd promised myself that I was spending all this weekend decorating......... till hubby suggested a jaunt round the xmas markets! So guess what...... no decorating again!

I'll give you all dark shades before you enter the house - they'll hide a multitude of sins!

[Lula]

oh gawd Kim, we are not there to pass judgement on your house, but to enjoy your company (and your beds lol)

[caro]

Don't worry. I'll put mine in my case.

I must remember that little surprise too.
