Pool installation glitch

All was going well until...we sprung a leak! One of the joints between the heater and the pool leaks...boo. I've spoken to the AquaBirth lady who assures me that there will be no logic as to why it's leaking (with which I totally agree as all the O rings are in place and it's threaded correctly) and to get some PTFE tape to put on the thread. So, Simon's on the PTFE case to pick some up on his way home from work & then hopefully we can get in! I can't wait. In the meantime here is what it looks like -

 And here is the dog not really knowing what the hell is going on -

We've put my Shiatsu futon mattress underneath for softness as it'll get quite uncomfortable kneeling on a hard surface (i.e.: the floor) having decided that duvets just wouldn't cut it. We can just see over it to see the telly from the sofa so Dexter is safe :-) That or we can get in & watch from the pool; bizarre!

NCT coffee morning tomorrow - I'm sharing a lift with the other lady who lives in town as we're off to Ripley which is about 10 miles away. 2 heads are better than one when finding new places I think. Then back for the scan! I'm very excited about that, although sad that Simon can't come as he doesn't have any holiday left and work won't let him have the time off - ungenerous swines. *Remember to take book for notoriously long wait* Still, I'll get a picture, but it's not the same as seeing the Wiggler Wiggling™ away!

I'm also meeting some of the local NetMums next Tuesday - how exciting! All these new friends who won't mind talking about babies! I'm going to tackle the hooded towel today - going to print out the tutorial and everything!
