Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that tomorrow is my last day before I go on maternity leave. My colleague Rochelle will be overseeing Club Together and, along with the staff champions, is here to help members wherever she can and is very much looking forward to contributing to the community.

Our baby is due on the 24th March and myself and OH are very excitied - not long to go now! 

I would just like to say that I will miss speaking to you all via Club Together on a regular basis and want to thank you for your kind messages and for helping to grow the community over the years from strength to strength. I will be back in 2017 and in the meantime I will drop in to say hello, but as a member rather than staff – although I might have my hands full for a little while!!  

Best wishes to you all and I will keep in touch. Smile

    Get as much rest as you can Rowena. How nice to have such a long time off with your new arrival. It was very different in my day and much better now.

    Look after yourself Smile Enjoy your time off and enjoy your new addition, time will pass to quickly.

    Meanwhile everything is in hand, we will keep the cogs turning and with any luck there might be a Forum (albeit a new one Undecided) to come back to, or it might be there but full of blank pages Laughing

    Rowena,  Like all the others,   I send you my best wishes and trust that all will go well. Have a great time bonding with your little one, and do not rush back. The important ones now are you and your family,- so really make the most of it and enjoy!

    Don't worry by the way, -the sleepless nights will fade out after a while, and peace will return!

    Is this a subtle way of telling us that there ain't going to be a new forum this year and you're abandoning ship to avoid walking the plank?

    The lengths people go to in order to avoid confrontation.Wink

    Good luck to you, your hubby and to the lucky new one.

    Exciting times ahead - enjoy what rest you can at the moment and take lots of pictures of baby as they grow up too quickly - the most important thing  you give a child is your time :-). You cannot spoil them enough with love
