Two new ways to follow my blog…and an anniversary
1) Via email – just add your email adress to the box to the right of the page, and you’ll get any new posts delivered to your inbox when they are posted (once a day, max)
2) A Baby on Board Facebook page – I finally got round to setting this up a few weeks ago. I’m just using it to post links to new blog posts at the moment – so it’s pretty much like RSS, just on Facebook – so if you’d like to like it, that would be lovely
Also, it completely passed me by that it was the one year anniversary of setting up this blog last month (this was my first post, all the way back in the pregnant mists of time). Twelve months and one baby down the line, here we are. So I wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone who has read it, come back and read it again, commented, emailed me or got in touch about anything I’ve written. It means an awful lot, so thank you.
And look who I found under our sofa bed yesterday when I turned my back for a second? The incredibly speedy small person in question is currently napping – hurrah – and I’m lying on the sofa watching this week’s Great British Bake Off. Which is appropriate as it’s been a biscuits for breakfast kind of day…zzZZz.

Gill, you wonderful mummy
We thought we’d swing-by and post
An unconventional comment
Which is more different than most
Congrats on the one-year anniversary
Of writing this wonderful site
(We used to follow Minxology
And even that blog filled us with delight!)
We’re the folks behind team Bosch
You may have heard of our brand
From power tools to automotive ….
Our products can be seen across the land
You may know us for home appliances
And probably have something of ours in your house
You may even have grown up with Bosch products
Before moving in with Alex, your spouse
But we bet that you weren’t aware
That we do much more than a range of cool kettles
We also have heating and hot water solutions
Ideal for when the snow outside settles
When you went to Miami early last year
Even before you both departed
Our airport surveillance was keeping you safe
Ensuring your holiday got started
If you and Alex ever buy a car
We’ll be in that technology all right
With safety systems to engine management
We develop these technologies with amazing engineering foresight
We’re green in our philosophy
Which is really important to us
We want to sustain good karma
Without making much of a fuss
So deep in all our technology
At the heart of everything we do
We wire in quality innovation
Making sure we also look good for you
And whilst we don’t sell sonic screwdrivers
(Sorry Alex, our tech hasn’t reached Galifrey)
Our lithium-ion cordless power-tools
Should let you both DIY away!
Now that Eliza’s growing older
(and cuter by the day)
When she first starts talking
We wonder what she’ll say…?
Will her first word be “mummy”?
In an accent, oh-so posh?
Or will she say “Hi daddy!”
[We’re hoping she’ll say “Bosch”!]
As a mummy blogger
We’re keen to hear your thought
About how we can go about
Giving you support
Because trust us, we know too well
That a parent’s life is intense
We may be able to help you
As our product range is immense
So whether you’re at Gymboree
Or out in Crystal Palace
Cooking in the kitchen
On the sofa, watching Dallas
Spare a thought for us, your chums
In you, a guru we’ve found…
And you’ll never be that far away
Because Bosch Is All Around!
(because Bosch Is All Around)
Hope you enjoyed that (come on over and say hello on Facebook or Twitter!
