Shout your happy news to the world!!!

As there doesn't seem to be a thread for this I thought I might start one. A place where one can go and shout any joyous news out and not feel guilty for having joyous news. It can be any news from say ... winning the lotto to not falling in the loo in the middle of the night because someone forgot to put down the toilet seat...


So YAY I got my laptop back and Yay my sisters twins are getting dilvered next Thursday ( providing she doesn't go into labour first) which means they will have stayed in for 34 weeks YAY oh and tiger monkey used the potty

Awww! YAY to your sister & her twins! Twins rock! My boys are 7 and the best thing that EVER happened to me

I'm SUPER excited & counting down the days (too many!) until July, when I will take my sons to visit my brother in California. So...YAY for vacation!

Last night we finished editing a live DVD of a gig we played last year, and did the artwork for the cover too. It looks awesome, I'm very pleased with it.

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

Oooh what a good idea!

No matter what your good news is, Well done, congratulations and a round of applause! (Take your pick!)

As for myself, two bits:

Getting married in May and we are having a baby in October! First scan was yesterday and everything is going perfectly!

I get to go to college for free. It isn't the one I wanted, but you can't beat a free ride.

Nope, it's a savoury baked batter dish, served mainly these days as an accompaniment for roast beef, but originally as a separate course filled with gravy just before the main course. Designed to fill you up cheaply, because you wanted less of the expensive meat after eating it.

Definitely rates a "YAY! for Yorkshire Pud!"

Thanks! Don't know about the sex, I think we want to leave it a surprise. Of course that does not mean we don't have our suspicions, and I am leaning towards a girl at the moment!!!
