  • <sings> Getting to know you-ooooo <sings> - Regulars and lurkers, roll up!

    Well as no-one said it was an awful idea...

    Hello! I'm Madonna (almost my real name), I'm 34 this month, and mum to Sofie (today aka Dorothy from W Of Oz), aged 2 and a half. I live in Essex/London with my husband, the aforementioned child and two cats who moult constantly.

    IRL I'm in HR, though I'm currently on maternity leave following the birth of my son Joe, sadly stillborn in July this year. I have my own little kleek of DTBOH (Determined to Bring One Home) in that I'm currently 7 weeks pregnant with baby number 9.

    I love HPAD (photography) and chocolate. If Canon made a chocolate lens I would gleefully combine the two.

     

    Your turn...

    Its a great idea Madonna.

    I'm Sam, 28 and Mum to Amelia (14 months) who is our first child.  We live in Swindon and I have done for the past 5 and a half years since meeting H.  I used to live just 20 miles away in a little village not too far from Oxford.

    IRL I work in the railway industry in project management and have done for 5 years.  Im currently studying with the OU for a degree in Management and Leadership, specialising in change and managing behaviours.

    I love shopping, reading and above all else learning about photography (HPAD is brilliant) and writing.  I used to write and contribute for articles in teen magazines as a hobby when I was younger and wish I'd taken it up full time as a journalist.  I am also terribly organised and love any excuse to organise a party or a project.

    What a fab idea!!

     

    I am Munchkin...28 from SE London/Kent.!!  I was previously on wedding planning under a different guise!! Been TTC for about 3 months although off the pill for over a year. Just found out I have PCOS so TTC may take a little longer than we first thought!!

    IRL I am in recruitment working in central London. I have been married just over a year to Mr. Munchkin who comes a close second to our cat!!!! 

    I love seeing my friends, vodka, wine, dancing...........usually in that order!!!!Cheers

    Well Hi there Wave  I'm ebee (which was my initials pre wedding back in the days when I frequented WP Laugh)  I have two boys Finn (4) and Callan (2 and a half)  with a 20 month gap which has turned out to be harder work than I anticipated Laugh

    Before the boys I was a radio journalist and lived a sparkly life full of celebs (well OK, mainly d-list scottish 'personalities')   and never went back after Finn was born. I've been on here for ages and am lucky to count hitchers (past and present) among some of my close mummy friends..    I started up a wedding videography business last year which is great as I can work round the boys, but I am constantly worried I'm not good enough Embarrassed

    I keep meaning to leave here, but keep coming back...

    I'm Shelley (but Margot is an old nickname), I'm 30 on Thursday Bawl and I live in High Wycombe, Bucks with my H and son Joshua who is 23 months. We've just foun dout that we are expecting #2 in July 2010.

    In RL, I'm a part time primary teacher, SENCo at my school and love it, despite the hard work and trying children.

    I like chocolate and rubbish telly, and prior to being pg, a few beers with my mates.

    Next!

    I'm Tania.  I'm 29 and have a little girl Jess who'll be 2 in a couple of weeks time and am almost 5 weeks with number 2.  I live in Norfolk with Jess and my husband.

    I'm a midwife (trust me we have the same worries and concerns as everyone else).

    Between Jess, work and trying to move house I don't seem to have much time for hobbies although am very addicted to FarmVille! Am currently going to Slimming World and have lost about 1 and a half stone and plan to carry on going through the pregnancy to try and limit the damage!

    I should add that I am incredibly disorganised at home and always appreciates any help I can get!!!!!
