Here's hoping things set off over the weekend for you all!

Take care!

A x

You big tease Christophe Lambie Pie!! Getting us all going like that! But at least you have a final deadline to work towards now.

Cheryl's idea isn't a bad one - if the curry approach doesn't work!

Hope Tash can cope with all the uncertainty - and your excitement! Best of luck..........

df

oh, you poor things!! talk about rollercoaster!! i know what it's like - let's hope no need for induction (been there - twice - got the T-shirt!!).

why not try the other tactic of just ignoring the baby altogether - he or she will get so desperate for attention they will make a bid for freedom!!

has Tash started cleaning the house or sorting out all the cupboards? that is also a good sign!!

best of luck over the weekend!!

xx

Oh well never mind..... Just think, this time next week it will all be over......

Never mind us Chris we will have to just wait a bit longer. At least you will be able to get a bit more sleep before the big day, and you will need it.

Enjoy your last weekend of freedom, but expect it Sunday(my guess).

Have a great weekend everyone

x

All good things come to those who wait - so they say. Enjoy your weekend and make the most of your quiet times together.

Bummer, baby DJ is not baked yet. Probably best s/he stay in where it is warm until ready for a grand appearance. Was all excited waiting for an announcement. Not to worry, all good things and all that :)

Keep your spirits up this weekend :)

ARF: Sitting, Waiting, Wishing by Jack Johnson

Induction.

A word that conjures up images of the first few days at a new job, being spoken to by lots of strangers with clipboards, whilst all the while, all you want to know is where is the loo and how do I get a coffee round here.

Chezza x x

Who knows CLP it could be anytime... these babas make their own minds up ya know! I was a few days late but when I decided the time was right I was out within 20 minutes!!!

lyndy.....I think there's a joke there someone... :)

Bond- I'll leave it with the blog... xx

Oh Christophe, how disappointing for you both!

Still, at least you know the littlest DJ is safe! Bet Tash is fed up though - bless her! I remember what it's like...

Right then - ARF - erm... Patience - Take That!!

S xx.

Nothing to apologise for CLP, I love that you share all this with us, the whole rollercoaster of it all.

Right I'm off to Sheffield! ............... "cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven even oooooooowwwwoooo!" xx

#5 - bondy - hahahaha!! could still take 3 days from next Thursday!! (trust me!)

#9 - Diva - actually the experience is much the same!!!

but strangely still worth it every time!!

aahh!!

xx

Ah well, I wouldn't want to make an appearance while it's THIS cold.... :-)

Any plans for an `emergency weekend blog', just in case?

ARF: Let's get it started by the black eyed peas..

Hello all

CLP - phew, good you're both carrying on as normal!! Yeah right! Guessing it's a sunday girl......

I am absolutely overwhelmed by all your support and kindness. Thank you all so so much. It has really helped and like I said earlier I’m not quite clear yet about my future but feel I have settled a bit. MW’a your words keep going round my head. I think that I have so wanted this to work seeing just how good it CAN be that actually I stopped seeing how it actually is most of the time. And 5 years on perhaps time to recognise that the changes are never coming. Well as you said time will tell and right now just feeling lighter is good and the rest will happen, the sun WILL rise tomorrow. So thank you MW’a, Clodagh, CtD, Debs, Md, Gingembre, Bsmum, SBP, Sparkly, Jovial TT, SomersetP, Annie , Lyndyloo, 007, DD, PF, Chrissie, cornishgirlie, sammie1170, carl, durbangirl, hazel. Sorry if I’ve missed anyone. AK – Claire Raynor would be proud to be mentioned on here. Thinking perhaps your blog name suggests you’d like to be an agony aunt yourself???!!! ?

Debbie – hope you are feeling lighter. Sending you much of the love and good karma I’ve been given. (but keeping some for myself!)
Off to get ready for arrival of the folks for a nice relaxing evening and will be on later for FNWC.

Dreamer

xxxxx

I'm new to the blog but have been with the show from the start!
I hope you don't have to wait too much longer for the baby to put in an appearance! In my experience they normally arrive when you lose all hope of them actually coming and resign yourself to the fact that the dreaded induction will have to happen!
Fingers crossed for an easy time for Tash! xx

Not so much an Agony Aunt as an Aunt in Agony.

....... and breathe .........

Chris,

Just realised I have been holding my breath for the last 30 hours - some sort of record, I would think!

Methinks Baby Evans is enjoying keeping us all on our toes!

Will be thinking of the three of you over the weekend ..... could be!

C xx

Baby DJ obviously too warm and comfy where he/she is, sensible I say, waiting for a let up in the weather no doubt.

Enjoy a cosy weekend together with lots of conversation as my husband and I find it nearly impossible to finish a conversation these days with our 3!!

Going to stick to last weeks request for ARF Rock (baby) DJ, Robbie Williams.

Have been reading yesterdays blogs and think Clodagh and co are so lovely and full of great advice, I could do with some friends like you lot.

Dreamer hope you are comforted by their wise words, be strong and keep your chin up!! I often worry about writing on here too incase I get caught! who by I don't know and why I worry I don't know but I do. My husband knows I read the blog but don't think he knows that I have taken the plunge to join in.

Good luck Chris and Tash.

Still thinking boy, 7lb 70z, over the weekend sometime.

Look forward to blogging with you later dreamur. Glad you're feeling a bit better today...

Clodagh - just listened to Terry's pause for thought from today! Think that was meant to be! So thank you for pointing me in that direction. For anyone going through any tough times at all, take a listen.

Afternoon each...

well will stop holding my breath now then cos going a bit blue in the face and thats not pretty at the best of time... but will still be waiting next wk along with this lovely lot and hoping for a `splash and dash` blog at the weekend!

Everyone having relationship issues... cant add to what everyone else has said apart from sometimes the hardest thing to do is to walk away but the best thing to do is walk away...MW`a list was excellent as usual..hope you all make the right decisions for you soon..

and having lived with someone with depression... tablets can help..even if only a short `help` so to speak... positive vibes and best wishes to all... (oh and CLodagh your post was inspirational as ever..)

Right..must be off..work to finish before leaving the rest of it for tomorrow... I WANNA MON_FRI job..anyone offer to employ me?! No, thought not!

Hugs to all!

mSc x

PS - Carlindonny.... are you on FB?

obv that was meant to be

Thank you for the update CLP...could you tell we've all been on tenterhooks? And poor lovely Tash!

Anyhoo, my prediction...if you care...

Sunday afternoon. About tea time.

There are worse things than Aquarians.

And better places to keep fish.

On that note, I'm going for another lie down.

all my
love

Hi Scoobs...... how are things? It would be a long commute from there to here...LOL

ARF - the brilliant gingembre choice.

Or Sunday girl?!!!

xx

Shortiepants, my husband came in here and read what I had been posting think it was the year before last.

I was horrified! Don't know if anybody remembers.

We kind of have an agreement now that he goes into his car forums etc and I have the blog and we don't dip into each others domains.

Dreamer, glad that you are going to have a nice evening, enjoy!

x x x

Ah NO Lambie Pie bless yous both.

Look. It'll be well worth the wait. I'm guessin Baby Ev has to be a girly to be keepin' you on your toes like this. Hurrah!

It's horrible I know, my little sweetie pie was just over a week late, everybody pestering us to death, I well remember wanting to murder the DDF for mitherin' on the hour, every hour, thought I'd never sit up straight or fasten me own shoes again, got totally frustrated and worried, but when she was finally introduced to her mummy with a look on her little cross face that said, "Oh boy are YOUS in trouble..." none of it mattered at all. And she's given us both the right run-around and had us dancin' to attention ever since.

And I wouldn't change a damn thing.

Mind you, I'm thinkin' of goin' on that Jeremy Kyle Show for a DNA test to find out who her mother is. Just to check.

Chin up, bless.

Clodagh.xx

hi cornishgirlie I'm Falmouth area, thanks for the welcome JLFB007!

No Bingo yet then Mr Chris.

Good things come to those that wait.


Aunt in Agony,,,,,,,,,

Well what's on the menu tonight at Plumsterville, as a vegatarian on the cusp looks like those dried up mushrooms and rice.


Have a good weekend my lovies.


Buenos Noches.

Hey Just signed into your blogs, so we are all still waiting for the arrival, hope it comes soon and is all over and done with quickly. Well you say that "you can't Fox the fox" and you certainly can't "bring on the baby" well not till he/she is ready.
Just remember Chris that the gas and air is for your poor wife whilst giving birth.....not for you !!!!!! good luck !!!!!!!

marvellouscornish - sorry, didn't actually say hello and welcome to the madness i was so excited to have a fellow local sign in!! but - belatedly - hello! i have only recently taken the plunge but everyone is great and so friendly (mostly!).

CG xx

ps - me - St Austell ish

The best things come to those that wait...............

Liz xxx

Welcome sweetjandys...

Nice to have some new names on the blog today....... I hope you enjoy your blogging.

Right then lovelies,

I'm signing out - wanna be in the car for 5.05 (Crackerjack!!!) so that I don't miss a thing!

Have safe and peaceful weekends all,

S xx.

sammie,

CRACKERJACK!!!!!!!

Thanks cornishgirlie, so did you get much snow in St Austell? I was so pleased that we actually got it this time!

Phhhhhhhewwwwww .......... sorry, that's me breathing out after holding me breath since yesterday morning!!!

Chris, I don't blame baby d.j one iota for not wanting to arrive in this dreadful weather. The minute the sun comes out s/he'll make an appearance, you'll see!

Debbie - has it really been a year? Crikey - and what a difference a year makes xx

Am off to dodge the big fat raindrops that are falling around the place and I'm then going to grab the weekend by its lugholes and give it a great big smackeroo on the lips. I've a hot date with a cheeky Merlot in about 2 hours' time after stocking up on supplies in Sainsbug's so bring it on - yes siree!

Have a good weekend one and all.

jillygoat xx

Aww. Don't worry about us - I'm sorry you're disappointed. We should be greatful you're choosing to share any of this with us.

At least it's going to happen soon!

Hi Chris,

It will happen tonight or early hours tomorrow - definitely! If it doesn't you can sue me. Really hope you all have a happy landing.

Hello new people, lovely to meet you - but can't say that to little baby DJ (yet!!!!) ARGH! But as others have said, thanks a zillion Christophe, for sharing the excitement with us - we are all with you in spirit (but at the head end obviously!!!)

Off to catch up on the end of yesterday's blog

T xxx

MCM - yes, Monday night and tuesday was FAB!! made a nice change from always hearing about it but never seeing it! the kids were thrilled!!

all gone now, nice and sunny here!

just doing some lovely plasticine modelling with small boy before FNWC later!! (might be safest to put plasticine away before starting on the latter!!)

CG x

Hopefully things will happen very soon Chris and Natasha but babies have a habit of keeping us waiting, it's what they do. My first was bang on the day and her sister was 10 days late. You just never can tell.

It'll be soooon of that I'm sure!!

pf x

Hi Bondy....you never know..change of scenery and all that! Hope all is well over t`other side of pond!

mSc x

Being induced isn't so terrible by the way. LM was two weeks late and was induced. It's a slighty more painful delivery, so they told me, but a quicker one.

Now I am a total wimp and managed on just gas, and that injection whatever it is. No epidural. So if I coped with it anyone can. Good luck Tash!

x x x

Oh poor Natasha......

Thank you for letting us know though. It's been so exciting, and it's been great making new friends on here.

Hells x

Hi Scoobs....... I don't know.... we have already had 85 plus inches of snow this season which is 20 inches more that we normally have at this point. We normally get over a 100 inches of snow each winter. I expect we'll be close to 120 inches this season.......

Hello all,

Have missed the last few days of blogs as I was away at Mum's house down in scouseland for a few days, so internet access was sporadic. Thought there might have been news about Evans junior by now!!! Hope the little one doesn't keep you waiting too much longer.

Anyhow had a nice few days down in Liverpool, doing a few touristy things and checking out the snazzy new shopping area Liverpool One, all v impressive. Had lunch in a winebar owned by Steven Gerrard on Tuesday, very nice food but unfortunately no sign of Stevie G himself...

One more day of work to go then 3 days off hurray! Scooby I share your plea for a regular Mon-Fri job, expecially when i have to get up and trudge to work on a Sunday morning. Planning on hitting the gym on Sunday for the first time in an absolute age so I think by Monday you'll be able to hear my screams of pain from Cornwall...

Happy Friday one and all, and hope everyone has a good weekend.

Rx

Just caught up on yesterday's blog = Clodagh, will you please adopt me? i bet you give great hugs.

Lots of love
Tinsel

xxxxx :-)

Evening each

Awww bums, poor Tash. Next Thursday??? Don't think some of our bloggers could stand the suspenders.

Right, off to check my vegetable soup, pour a small glass of red, then check everyone's posts.

Debbie/Dreamer: Hope you're both ok, been thinking of you today.

Hi Annie-G.....

Oh Anne sorry I forgot to reply to your text! I was driving to the pet shop at the time.

Am back, veggie soup doing well.

Cornish people: my train from Edinburgh gets into St. Austell when I'm visiting my friend in Newquay. Looks like a lovely place. And Cornwall has such lovely beaches.

Penny: Congrats - good one.

Welcome to all the new people - glad you all stopped lurking and joined in.

Clodagh: What can I say? You're a one-off diamond. xxxxxxx

Oh, and there's Susan's fave tooon: Are we human.

Hope she's listening.

xx

Baby will arrive when he's good and ready. The initial excitement might have scared him off, just as you're relaxing again after the excitement of the last couple of days, he'll decide it's show time.

3 days in a row my little boy had me thinking he was about to arrive only for the labour pains to fade away. By the 4th day I took no notice and carried on doing what I was going to do and lo and behold that was THE real event. Little tike!

Enjoy what's probably your last weekend of peace and quiet! This time next week the focus of your world will suddenly have changed forever :) It's wonderful!!

Annie-G..... but are we human.....LOL

wouldn't live anywhere else! done it, tried it for a while (deepest Essex, Surrey) - had to get back!

beaches R us!!

even in the snow!!

CG xx

DD

Boooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

I was in the bath.

But consolation, was listening to Foooooooooooos

MW, a

Blimey. I disappear for an hour and you lot go bezerk!

Well done Penny! All set for the weekend now!

Pix of tats on FB if anyone wants to see.

Chezza x x x

MW,a!

Dave Grohl in the bath. Now you is talkin'!!!!

xxxxx

Hi all

Just got round to catching up on the news: poor Tash, hope you don't have to wait much longer. The beloved juts got home with lappy as I couldn't face another walk to work.

Gorgeous daughter should have left for Taunton today for field trip - now postponed till Sunday. Any updates on local conditions would be good. Ta!

Steffib

PS Don't believe about the THUR prediction a writted on the blog.... see commentation #153 3rd of Feb blog for the proof!!!!!

PS ALL - A 'ad a nice dee terdee.... been inside The 'ouse Of Commons and saw a live debate in The 'ouse Of Lords about the Gazza situation!
Very interesting seeing the very spot where the Prime Minister does 'is business. (a notice the carpet iz abit worn on the spot where Gordon Brown stands in The 'ous eOf Commons)
Seeing live Lords.... noot a leaping but debating.... it's 'istory right in front of yer eyes..... a mean normally yer only see the 'ighrarkee in as statues in cathderals, noot live ones in the 'ighest court of the land - know what am sayin'!!!!!

Chow!

PS 'ope all ave a good weekend!!!!!!

PS Penny - Congrates on the ARF choice being the one!!!!!

Christoph - good luck with the great baby DJ birth, but let nature take it's course don't interfere how ever horrid Tash feels that baby will come out eventually, lots of walking - then watch out for the tears and emotions. It's great. Have a fantastic weekend - but no more pies.

Still in shock - can't tell bloke as he doesn't know I do this, although he knows I lurk. Well a girl has to have some secrets!!

Anyhow, welcome all new bloggers - although I consider myself still new.

pf
xx

ohh...well, what a life! you can get over it sooner or later...

Penny - don't think you're a newbie now!! Many have joined the madness since you took the wonderful plunge!

Man, I'm gonna miss FNWC - raise one for me!

xxxxx

Ah Tins bless you.

But listen. If you've got a Mulberry Mabel bag, the Genius daughter will happily swap.

Actually no, that's not right is it.

A packet a Jelly Tots and the bus fare home'll do it.

Clodagh.xx

xxxxxxs to all. You're too kind.x

So Steffie: Another gorgeous daughter. That's you, Clodagh and me, and I think CtD is her mother's GD too. Didn't we do well?

xxx

We certainly did, couldn't agree more. Very lucky to have them.
Steffi

I am indeed my mummy's GD AnnieG!!

Absolutely flippin drop-dead gawjus!

;-)


(and just a tiny bit modest too!!!) xx

So, the beloved has spent the last hour digging the car out of the drive. Now he's gone off to see how far he can go (I assume). Of course gone without moby! So no idea where he is now or how long he's been gone! Bless....it's a boy ego thing I think!

Steffi

Bingo,

Great to hear that the government is at last taking an interest in the troubled life of one the finest footballers of our generation.

Wow the tats on CtD are pretty dam awesome and I know what you mean about not hurting on the top of arm but ouchy to the wrist, my tats going on FB tonight.

cornish, I used to live in Bude, 3 years and it was awesome down there. Not quite a beach where i live now but next to a river so still water lol

My bet is Sunday for CLP an Tash to have their babby, 9.35pm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone else wanna guess?

Errol xxx

MW,a so did Errol miss it as well? ;-o

Errol - you can keep tabs of the "when" guesses - I did the weights!!

And thanx for the tat feedback. Mr Diva not impressed. Sadly.



DSMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
