So after everything I said about John Lewis...


... and not wanting to become a total JL Mum, this evening, after work, we have our Nursery Advisory meeting. I'm only going to learn how to put up and fold down the buggy. Seriously, I'm not being taken for a ride and shown every product known to (modern) babies. I just want a quick lesson in foot brakes, a once over on the cot bed, and maybe a sniff or two around the breast pads - then I'm outta there.
I already have the most conclusive Mummy-to-be list from Dear Friend Amy, and frankly, I trust her over a young, graduate-trainee doing his one month stint in the nursery department.
It sounds like I'm anti-John Lewis, doens't it? I'm not at all, I just can't imagine what they want to talk to me about for two hours. It sounds like a baby endurance test, and frankly I'm too tired. What I'm not too tired for, however, is our final sunny holiday tomorrow!
Yes, people, there's the possibility of another bikini shot in the next week or so, as we're heading to steamy Mallorca and I can't wait. For one, it'll mean a week without a what-to-wear-to-the-office conversation (with myself). I'm also looking forward to hurrying the time along a bit. I'm getting impatient. And nothing makes time fly like a week in the sun and lots of lovely food.

  1. So now we need a report on how it was. Promise you the person who does the appt is not a grad trainee but someone with years and years exp!! They will also not try to sell you anything you dont need as there is no commission and they want you to be happy! Sounds like I work for them doesn't it!?!
