Rainy, glad to hear you are well out of harms way. xxx Your pg seemed super-quick this time (to us anyway LOL). Re the wind, massage his tummy in a clockwise direction, bicycle his legs, and any holds that put a bit of pressure on his tum will help too. I had a run in with an oobi stall at the market, lucky for me I was there to sell and not to buy LOL.

Clare, I think you are well entitled to be very angry - it's the way the hospital system works unfortunately. Take a ticket and move along the conveyor belt. Unfortunately it's hard to be assertive when you're in dire need. All it takes is that extra moment of one staff member *really* paying attention to you and suddenly you're in good hands, kwim?

Arte I'm so glad you got to spend some time with your Nanna. I hope she gets through the transition soon enough and can enjoy the care that she gets there that she wouldn't at home, kwim? My Nanna was really against giving up her independence, but when she finally did she eventually got to enjoy things like being able to have a proper bath (with their assistance) and having a hot cup of tea brought in, etc. BTW I think that's hilarious that you're into Twilight! I quite enjoyed the read, not sure I'll be running out to get the rest of the series though.

I don't think we'll hear very much from MM this week, she will be very busy, and then Noni only a week later!!! I think Noni was going off for a dress fitting today. How exciting ladies!!

PAP - enjoy all that cute early walking! How are you "slowing-down-a-bit" plans coming along?

I forgot to say until PP reminded me, yesterday I met cousin's little DD who is 6 weeks younger than Missy E. Just gorgeous and a real little champ despite her vision problems. She has only just a week or so ago started walking too (much earlier than her sister who was a speed bum-scooter LOL) and ti was so cute to see her tottering around. It was fantastic to catch up with my cousins - haven't seen them for years!!
