    Emily - Sorry, didn't reply to your question from the last thread which kind of answers it in a way. This weekend has been full on. Not stopped all weekend. So busy. Did lots of edding stuff with my bestie and picked up bridesmaids dresses .......... have to say though D@v!d5 8r!d@l is terrible! Just would say to everyone to avoid like the plague!!!!

    Think I've heard of them IDL. Are they an outlet bridal?

    We found my sisters dress in one bridal shop but walked away and found it somewhere else. The new shop is fantastic!

    My brothers operation went very well and he is currently back on the ward eating ice cream and yoghurts. Dr has said as long as he is ok later on he will be allowed home tonight.

    See Korey-James new Dr tomorrow and I'm bricking it. He fell yesterday and has a lovely bruised eye and bruised back :(. I allowed a friend to look after him and she let him out of her sight and he fell down her stairs! I was not impressed. I only found out because her 5yr old told me!!

    I'm annoyed with it all Emily. She will never have my child again! In fact she may never see me again. My list of people I trust to look after my child has gone back down to 3 people. His father, my mother and my MIL.

    Stripped the wallpaper off the washroom and found damp/mould behind it and half the walls come down with the paper. H2b is going to treat and plaster the walls next week when they've had time to dry out.

    No Emily. They're a massive American bridal chain company. Terrible terrible terrible. My colleague also had problems with them!

    Thankfully the dresses are now sorted but was so painful getting it all sorted out.

    Finally getting somewhere with Korey-James. Back to the hospital next week for nine blood tests! Got to do a sample and a food diary for 2/3 months. Dr has said depending on these results will depend on if he will need to go to the children's hospital in Sheffield for further tests in theatre, but it's looking very likely.

    God I love my H2b but I really need to educate him. Who on earth gets F1fthy Shad3s of Gr3y mixed up with S3lfr1dg3s?! They are nothing a like and Jamie Dornan is 1000 times fitter. I'm actually gob smacked lol.

    Heya all. Hope you are all well.

    My annual leave started with me going in to do a shift on Monday, as its cowes week I've been doing the 630am classes at the m so that I could park my car again. Felt a bit rough in the tummy on Tuesday, unsure why, then in the evening we had friends from the mainland for dinner. Wednesday I had Freddie and it rained all day, yesterday was my youngest's 13th birthday. I went to the gym first thing, then came home and done a nice breakfast for her with fresh fruit and crossiants and muffins. We then went to watch Dunkirk, enjoyed that, and then had afternoon tea at our wedding venue. It was lovely. The wedding organiser had said to me to ring candles and find her at reception and she would make sure they were put on a cake and brought out to her. They came out singing happy birthday, it was lovely. Then the chef was waving at me at the door to the kitchen and asked if everything was OK. We were treated like royalty.

    Today I have Freddie again, and it's the end of cowes week so tonight is a big firework display, hopefully it will be better than last year which was extremely poor.

    Morning all

    Had a lovely day with Freddie yesterday. We took him to watch the red arrows for the first time and then he watched the fireworks. When the red arrows came over it was funny as where we sit to watch them, they appear over the back of the church out of nowhere, he got a bit scared and clung to step son's arm with a look of horror on his face, but after that he was cool with them and kept asking when the planes would come back. He loved the firework display as well.

    Off to the gym in a bit and then my youngest wants to go shopping in Southampton for a couple of hours.

    Hi- thought I would just say hi, not been on here for a while as seem to find the Facebook group much better- don't have to disguise names and is so much easier to use- think more people are joining fb for that reason- I get that no advertising links but find having to disguise a name a pain - a lot of us on Facebook feel the same so seem to be sticking with that- guess why it's so quiet in her?

    That's a shame Michelle, people used to chat in this thread a lot and it's a shame to see it so quiet.

    If anyone has any ideas to see if we can get it like we used to then please let us know. We are hopefully going to get something running again like we did before where you got given free points. We can put ideas towards the boss man.

    Yeah it is really GF- when I first joined there were loads on us on this thread and each week there were pages of chat- now lucky if make it onto 2 pages.

    I know a lot of the other girls hate the new layout find the searching for threads difficult- when you try and search for a thread and you can't find it then you create your own and then it gets shut down- I guess there needs to be a lot of archiving happen on the site as often when I search for things threads for 2010 come up.

    Simple things like being able to say names of things without having to add in try and disguise names- i completely understand the no advertising links as it woukd just end up with companies coming on and spamming but what harm does actually saying a brand name do?

    I think a complete re design is in order- making it a bit more modern and user friendly woukd attract a lot of people back, being able to find threads easier, and looking at friends profiles like we could before.

    I will see what the other girls think on FB too xx

    Hey IDL,

    Re d@vids Br1dal- we went there a couple of months ago to try on bridesmaid dresses and I found the whole place very American - I was also concerned about the quality of the dresses for the price- £150 for a long BM dress where the m0ri Lee ones were £165 and much better quality- I'm going to Glasgow end of September with my BM and my sister who is my other BM so she can look at the dresses in David's but thinking Weill most def avoid.

    The whole purpose of my trip to Scotland was to go and look at @lfred @ngelo dresses that sister had tried on and I loved in the pictures- guess somethings are not meant to be - hopefully we will find even better dresses :-)

    Fingers crossed you do find better ones Michelle.

    I will never recommend d@v1d5 8r1d@1! Worst wedding dress shop ever! For quality and service. Just disgusting.
