Hi Girls..

Can you remember I told you I'd written a letter to the BBC about my mums and my love of cooking and applied for my mum to be a VIP mum in the cookery programme Hairy Bikers mums know best series.. well after several visits from the BBC, mum phoned me last night in blind panic saying she got the dates wrong and they're coming to do a full day of filming with Dave and Si (Hairy Bikers) on Monday, so have had to blag a day off work as I'm being filmed too..

The only thing I'm worried about is my mum is lovely but a huge drama queen and we had a MASSIVE fall on the two days running up to my wedding last year, she stresses unecessarily and just can't calm down! She runs around like a loony shouting and crying and puts too much on herself.. even though she always has help, she doesn't see that.. just gets extremely worked up!! I said I'd go over on Sunday to help prepare the desserts and already she's roped in an army of helpers but I don't want her stressing me out.. the last time was awful!! Hubby said he's not having me stressed out, but I'll feel guilty if I don't help.

I can't believe she phoned me last night saying Clayre Pick up the phoe this is an emergency, its urgent, I really thought something bad had happened to a family member!! She's so dramatic and it does my head in.. she doesn't work so just expects everyone to drop everything for her.. She lives in her own little bubble.

This morning she phoned me at work saying she was devastated she might not be able to get an emergency appointment at the hair dressers.. I mean, come on!! Some of us work and just don't have that luxury, then she went of jibbering at 100mph saying the doors needed painting, the grass needed cutting, this that and the other needed doing, could my huby come round to help.. Then saying well I'll need you round on Sunday to help.. I really don't want the stress, she's so highly strung, I love her to bits but I've never known anythng like it in my life!! Think Hyacinth Bouquet on speed.

Lol, poor u!!! Just listen an nod along an then just do what u wanna do hun. She shouldn't be putting so much stress on you ect knowing ur pregnant just leave her to it hun xx

I hope everything goes ok with the fliming I can't wait ti watch it when it aires Do u know when it aires? x

I think it will air later in the year, probably sept/oct, will ask on Monday, its very exciting but I can't do with mum dictating to me.. she always expects me to drop everything! I want to be involved and am willing to help, but don't want her getting all over stressed when its not necessary as it just winds me up! X

oh wow.....how exciting.......I love the hairy bikers....

don't panic about your mum, she may calm down a bit when she becomes a bit star struck when they arrive........

tell us how it all goes....xxxxxx
