LL off topic #12 The Wrong Fellas

[Peepynose]

Hey!
Baby R is 4 weeks old now and doing brilliantly

It’s a shame @DellaC still isn’t back. I really hope her and her family are ok. Also hope @IdeletedbutI'mbackagain is doing ok on her break.

How is everyone else doing?

Ah I’m so pleased to hear it rasp! How are you doing? How’s feeding going? And have you been weed on yet? Is it ok now Mr Rasp is at work? X

Has anyone else had this torrential rain? I nearly crashed three times coming home from work in the motorway because I couldn’t see due to the rain then had to get both kids from nursery and they were crying from getting wet it’s awful!

It horsed it down when I was on the way back from Glasgow before wee Caledonian came home from school. It's raining just now too and the dogs don't want to go out they are curled up at the back door protesting

Happy birthday to wee Cale. Hope he enjoys the cookie pie!

Jammy do you sell footy kits?

I feel a punch line coming on here
No, I don’t sell footie kits, why?
(Although actually I have a load of old Blackburn Rovers shirts that I should print out on eBay)

Cali is it possible that you can turn it off once he's in a deep sleep?
OH also likes a fan on but it doesn't bother me in the sense of disturbing me although I do still hear it.
How about putting a cold water bottle on his side, or those pet cooling mats....
Might ear plugs work for you although I guess you'll need to listen out for the babies... what's a girl to do

 

[Caledonianprincess]

Tiramisu, battemburg & bakewell are NOT good cake choices for me so I appreciate a lemon as does Mr2 so I'll order double & eat his too

3 of the same cakes I don't like. Also don't like coffee cake or cakes with nuts or almonds

My bf likes a fan so when I sleep at his I have headphones in but mind you I have terrible tinnitus anyways so always need a podcast or something to drown out the buzz.
I don’t think we’re designed to share bedrooms to be fair I never sleep well next to someone.

Thanks @raspberryjuice @odetotheseaweed i hadn’t thought about the bed swap- we will give that a try! She is only just turned 3! She won’t say anything specific just that she doesn’t like her bed and she’s scared- we’ve bought her three different beds in the last year in the hope one of them does the trick but it’s always the same: she’s fine in it for a few days then decides she doesn’t like it. When we first moved she had about five days of amazing sleep on her own and I thought we had cracked it but clearly not her room is really well lit and my sister bought her a special night light but it makes no difference

 

[raspberryjuice]

That’s so lovely of your neighbour jammy!

 

[2ofeach]

Your very own taxi @oldjamfan

We play the number plate game all the time.

 

[oldjamfan]

I dont like lemon so im going to pretend you said something else and still join in. You’ll have to let us know the date I’m actually going to order cake for it

Ha ha that’s exactly what I thought too rasp

 

[IdeletedbutI'mbackagain]

Honestly the smell
I'm still feeling a bit rough today so ordinary I think I could suck it up, but not today. Today is not a good day.

Aw you poor thing, the day is nearly over though 🩷🩷

 

[Boxatrix]

Its the noise of it I can't shut off at night at the best of times but the fan intensifies it

I'm prone to light sleeping because of hypervigilance and foam earplugs were a life saver. The small yellow ones (not the longer cone shaped ones) are excellent for blocking out sound like that - but you'd still hear your children crying or a phone or smoke alarm etc.
I can't sleep without them and I bulk buy a bag of 50 pairs from Am*z**.

 

[Liverbird2003]

That’s amazing! Did he nap much during the day?

Yeah he would nap brilliantly, by the time we got down to one nap, he would sleep for 2 or 3 hours and then still go to bed nicely.

 

[raspberryjuice]

I can’t believe wee Cale is 1 tomorrow!! Where has that year gone?!

 

[Caledonianprincess]

I'll stick to the chocolate fudge cake from Costco. Ocado and m and s can keep their caterpillars however I do like m and s for their Percy pigs and apple turnovers

 

[raspberryjuice]

Someone can give her a referral code I believe and then she can sign up again?

[raspberryjuice]

Oh wow! Have you done a test?

 

[odetotheseaweed]

Given my lad is in Auld Reekie I thought I'd partake in a local delicacy so I did this.... Can you tell what it is yet?

Is it a deep fried mars bar?!

 

[raspberryjuice]

The chippy near my sister does battered Oreo’s and mars bars. We couldn’t be much further from Scotland
