I am now in touch with my paternal grandmother, but being new to Mother's Day, do I get a card/gift for my Nan, too?
Is it customary in the UK to send to nans as well as mums?
I probably will take her some flowers, but I just am not sure what the norm is here.

I have appreciation for the efforts you put in every week, preparing the Watchtower study in such a way that I can cope with.
I hate the way they praise up their own literature (the golden nugget!!) when they claim to love the bible so much.
Thanks Blondie.

For you "sisters" who married in the "Truth"...

by Frequent_Fader_Miles in

just a poll question.

at the first convention/ assembly following your wedding ... did you parade around the convention site gloating in other sisters' faces, showing off your new husband?

i've never done it, but i can't help but suspect that others do.

Do Not Call

OF COURSE I DID!!!
Loads of other 'sisters' were after my hubby but I got him and flaunted it shamelessly!

Went to the Scan for Baby

by KW13 in

well, the baby is very secretive because its legs were crossed (15 weeks 5 days approx - due date september 2nd) so we couldn't tell what sex it was, if you can tell at this early stage.. anyhow its all there, and appears healthy and although this kind of scan doesn't really tell you much, the signs were good and we were really happy to just know all is well.. it was sucking its thumb, it wriggled a bit and its heart rate was fine.

you could make out a majority of its body parts from its ears to feet, knees and pot belly.. hopefully sometime in the not too distant future i will have obtained a scanner of some kind to be able to get it on the net for you folks to see.. .

Do Not Call

Oooh! Excellent news KW13.
Lots of love to all 3 of you!

Good for a giggle onSt Patrick's Day

by Gregor in

jw
friends

if you are going out with friends or just to work tomorrow get a packet of lime koolaid (lime jello works too).

don't wear any green but put a pinch of the powder on your tongue to make it bright green.

when challenged about the lack of green just stick out your tongue and tell them you just ate a leprechaun..

Did you mean St Patrick's Day??

big red.

she's 8 feet now and growing.

yesterday she asked if it was really so i couldn't eat of the tree in the middle of the garden..

Woodsman and Big Red, my daughter has just seen the post and is very impressed with the boa.
(And jealous!)
She wants to know what other reptiles you keep.

Spectre, my daughter has been wanting a white-lipped python. What are they like to keep?

Love DNC & mini DNC
