My husband is still in Birmingham, and not leaving anytime soon. I'm multiply gutted because a) miss night out b) have night in on own (would sound good but see later points) c) did ocado shop but crucially forgot to confirm so all the shopping i was expecting in the last hour - including my dinner - not here and d) thought to console self for a) and b) I would watch cheesy romcom on Sky box office, only to find there is some impossibly annoying fault with Sky cable or something and can't book/record/watch anything for some reason. Argh! Woe is me. Also just had embarassing chat with Sky wherein it was obvious I know nothing about Sky, phonelines, cables or anything useful other than the name of the film I wanted to watch. I was also somewhat the wrong side of a double gin and tonic.


Edited to say sorry for whingeing and hope a good night is had!

Likewise - came home from work to find little one with a very high fever. Under control now and sleeping soundly. Hope it lasts - maybe I can at least get a decent night of sleep even if I did miss all the fun.


Try again next time!

Thanks again for taking the initiative to organise, Ruth.

Lovely to meet all of you and see those of you who I already knew! I was lucky enough to come home to a sleeping baby, who had been given his last feed and changed. Lovely!

Sorry to hear about your evening, Belle :( Those of you with sickly babes, hope they're feeling a bit better today.

I went to bed at 12 and my eldest came in at 4am to say she'd been sick in bed (caught bug going around school). Eugh, not what you need to deal with on 4 hours sleep and half a bottle of red wine!


Poor girl, she was very brave about it though.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
