The BESH Republic Of Rulvakia

Welcome to The BESH Republic Of Rulvakia. The national drink is of course gin, state funded to get you into a state. We have many traditions and customs, such as sechsing, swearing for the fun of it (optional) and urinating on little white sticks.
Enemy of the state is Droid, who must be heckled heartily should it put in an appearance. There is an ongoing lottery to win a baybee, being granted citizenship of The Republic is your ticket to the lottery.

As a democracy all members are entitled to put forward any customs or rules they would like and we can all adopt important but silly titles if we like. See the George Carlin sketch about hats and religion and make your own mind up about whether you would like a ceremonial hat to accompany whichever title/role you bestow upon yourself.

Newcomers should find and complete the BESHtionnaire so we can make sure you are cynical and non-fluffy enough to be granted Citizenship.

Morning ladies.

Sorry the gig 'twas a bit shit dor - I went to the show of the Edinburgh fringe a few years back. Bad wasn't the word. but he's now on tv all the time, so maybe it's me..

Not sure if I'm in or out. Cd37. Nothing happening. POAS this morning because I've been obsessing, but bfn, obviously. Only saving grace was went out with friends on Friday and got presented with a "guess who's 12weeks" moment, but was still quietly hopeful, so managed to appear happy. Yay me.

euro, I've sort of agreed to go running at 12. This is a really bad idea isn't it?

FriendofDorothy · 27/05/2012 09:58

i think some people found it hilarious and some were a bit embarrassed. Talking of fake tan has reminded me. There was a woman at the gig last night who was so orange it was scary. She looked like an oompa loompa.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 27/05/2012 09:39

Ah boo euro. That's rubbish. Let's sit in the corner and drink gin together. Enjoy the run! Mmm and the BBQ later.

CaveMum · 27/05/2012 09:38

Morning everyone.

Sorry the gig was pants Dor.

No news in my world - CD15 and no sign of imminent ovulation.

I'm going out for a late breakfast with my diffed best friend. Her bloke and HWHNN have gone off to an air show for the day - male bonding and all that.

eurochick · 27/05/2012 09:35

Morning ladies!

I'm trying to muster the energy for a run before it gets too hot. I left it too late yesterday and couldn't face running in that heat! Then we need to get cooking for a bbq later.

Sorry the gig was a disappointment, Dor. We used to go and see a lot of stand up but have kind of fallen out of the habit. It can be very good but when it is bad it just makes the audience a bit uncomfortable.

Norfy that sounds interesting....

My temp had a big drop this morning so I can safely say "I'm oooot" for this cycle. Droid's arrival is imminent.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 27/05/2012 09:33

What a shame dor. Did other people find it funny or was it just a bit awkward?
norf that sounds fairly positive. Despite my mahoosive buzzwams and excruitiatingly sensitive nipples, I don't think I'm diffed. Started spotting this morning. Too late for implantation, really too early for droid Hmm Confusing body!
Sounds like you've had a nice weekend Shred! Eurovision was a bit embarrassing in the end wasn't it? Tis a bit sad when all you can take from it is Well we didn't come last.
The fake tan has developed into a gentle bronze today so I am pleased with it. Minimal streaking. I don't look TOWIE, just don't look like an extra from Twilight any more!

FriendofDorothy · 27/05/2012 08:37

Well last night's gig was disappointing. I was already pissed off as they didn't start until 9 when the tickets said 8.... and they didn't give a reason for it.

Also (and please bear in mind that I am no prude and I have a very, very high threshold for bad language) was it really necessary to have 2 1/2 hours f jokes about cocks, blow jobs, religion bashing and women hating. Rufus Hound just wasn't that funny, but he was quite offensive. The language was absolutely unnecessary... I think I don't mind when swearing is used properly, but when it is a fuck every other word I think it is a bit excessive.

Northey · 27/05/2012 08:11

Oh yes, I also got a little lump in my throat about MSB coming back to get his ring.

Northey · 27/05/2012 08:11

Morning all. Not much to report here, except fractionally more wetness than usual. And also, possibly, wetness of a slightly different tint on Friday. Boobs a bit sore, but no more than I've had in recent cycles, I suppose. CD28, innit?

Another gorgeous day, and I am hoping to lure AMNH off punting.

ShredniVashtar · 27/05/2012 07:57

Glad you're feeling happier, faith! A bit of sunshine and some pampering time sounds just the thing. Personally I'm sticking with the pale and interesting look for now - never been much of a tanner! And I think MSB coming back just to get his ring is just about one of the most romantic things I've ever heard

Like rollo we've been mostly pottering outside in the garden, and celebrating a friend's 40th (gulp). And watching Eurovision, which should surely have been won by Rulvakia!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 26/05/2012 19:59

Grin dor. I got a little 'You hardly ever wear thongs' comment recently. Saw this set - just too gorgeous - black with pink rose pattern - and thought 'why not?!'
Sounds like you've both had luffly days! Hope Rufus is funny dor.
I'm all groomed now, just need to paint my toe nails. First time using new fake tan, hope it's not streaky! Blush I know it's sunny out but after being ill I was white as a sheet and thought I could do with a head start!

queenrollo · 26/05/2012 19:42

It's been a great day here too. After our morning out we have just been in the garden, either gardening or playing with DS. It's so nice to just relax and potter about. DS has gone to bed early to watch a DVD.
HOLB having a quick bath and I'm jumping in after him. Then we'll probably attempt to do a little late housework before chilling and listening to music before bed. HOLB has been buying records again Hmm

Do you think the thong will fit MSB?

I have had a lush day. Photos at a friends house and then fish and chips for lunch and then to the beach with The Mister, the sister and the ankle-biters.

Just on our way out to see the comedian Rufus Hound. A perfect end to a perfect day. Oh, and my cousin and his wife have announced they are expecting too - 6 days before us!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 26/05/2012 18:25

Hooray I have snapped out of it! MSB came home in a taxi just to get his ring so I gave him a lift back into town and went shopping! Bought some nice basic vests and a tres bonne set of undies. The undies are awesome because it had matching pants and thong. I bought the knickers for me and the thong for MSB! Grin I now intend to pamper myself, full works - skin, nails, hair! Then pizza and juice in front of Eurovision!
So what's everyone been up to? Are we actually watching Eurovision?!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 26/05/2012 15:05

I have got some tools and am going to do a bit of gardening. Something productive in the sunshine. MSB forgot to put his wedding ring on. We have had words! I said I need him to help more. He says he will do stuff tomorrow. will pop some good music on and relax!

eurochick · 26/05/2012 14:03

Can you sit outside in the sunshine, Faith. Sunshine makes almost everything better. And vit D has a role in fertility, so you can tell yourself it is all for a good cause.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 26/05/2012 13:51

Yes I feel much better for it. Have even managed to do some cleaning! Am leaving the vaccing since MSB has promised ha ha to help tomorrow. He worked this morning, came home for an hour, complained he had no clean pants he did stated he had been busy when I pointed out I've been ill and he knew where the washing machine was, shaved in my nice clean sink Angry and buggered off out til God knows what time. And my friend has cancelled so now I have no plans for today :( boo hoo.
I am a bit mizz. please euro?

eurochick · 26/05/2012 13:44

BTW, among other things, we bought two whole plaice. So if anyone needs a fish slap let me know....

Wink
eurochick · 26/05/2012 13:40

queenie we've just been to our local farmers' market and come back similarly equipped!

queenrollo · 26/05/2012 13:39

blimey Faith do you feel better for it?

Blimey, I just woke up. Shattered much?!

queenrollo · 25/05/2012 18:38

no news on bunny. not likely to hear anything, don't fancy phoning the RSPCA to find out - it was hard enough negotiating their phone system.

Sobered up now, DS is going to bed early because he is poorly and therefore grotty and really winding me up....

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 25/05/2012 18:26

Oh duh you were referring to the spelling! Didn't even realise Blush

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 25/05/2012 18:24

I understood all of the first post, the second one confused me bugs! Sorry to hear about your bad hair cut. Can you find a good hat to hide under?!
GP has given me more pain killers, just wish he could give me a chirpy husband. He's a mardy so and so tonight. He's tired. He has three mental weekends in a row and we're in the middle of it. Trouble is, hes saying he didn't sleep well last night. From my perspective, I was writhing in agony while he snored away so I think I got less sleep Hmm not feeling overly sympathetic!At least next weekend he's away :) nah but he's got the bank holiday Monday at home to recover.
