Welcome to the 2.30 from Mumsnet Towers. The fillies have been groomed to within an inch of their lives and are raring to go.

Late entries for the race are required to locate and fill in the BESHtionnaire so that their form can be assessed.

Bring on the stallions!

Oh God, faith, how absolutely dreadful. Was she the one who had conceived through ivf?

alwyn · 08/07/2012 13:23

faif that is absolutely awful for your friend.

HaveALittleFaith · 08/07/2012 13:07

I have text her in a 'don't expect a reply but please let me know if there's anything I can do'. Totally unexpected as far as I know. My heart breaks for her.

I guess it should have been dizzy laid, norf! Oops.

Sorry to hear its been a meh weekend euro but glad you enjoyed the theatre. I hope you can escape soon.

eurochick · 08/07/2012 13:00

Oh gosh, faith how absolutely awful.

Dizzy laid Norf? Now there is some good gossip Wink. More seriously, woo hoo for Dizzy.

I am a bit meh, having ended up back in the office today. This weekend was supposed to be about recovering from the emotional and physical turmoil of recent weeks and a sechsgymkhana , and instead I have ended up spending it at my desk. I had a bstd of a drive in too, due to road closure for some run and other people having the audacity to park in my favourite weekend spaces. We did get to see The Woman in Black last night though. It was very good, although not as creepy as I had imagined it. It was good to have a night out though, and do something that would take far more planning with sprogs (I booked the tix on a whim on Friday). The suchsgymkhana has yet to start though as I had an upset stomach after the play. Dammit. I have neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds, you know!

CamelKnees · 08/07/2012 12:51

Oh Faif that's just awful. Really really sorry to hear that.

CaveMum · 08/07/2012 12:44

Oh Faith I am so so sorry Sad

Oh God I've just come back from church - which really helped - to hear that my friend's baby (the one who was so lovely and considerate when she came round a few weeks ago) was still born :( the world makes no sense to me right now.

HaveALittleFaith · 08/07/2012 10:06

Trying and failing to rally myself to go to church.

CaveMum · 08/07/2012 09:58

I'm here. Sat on the sofa watching the Irish "Don't tell the bride" with the car snoring on my lap Grin

Hello! I am booking my sechsgymkhana holiday and also feeling resentful and not at all in the mood for it, because once again it's me that is doing all the planning and booking. What are you up to?

HaveALittleFaith · 08/07/2012 09:33

is there anybody alive out there?
Mmm Ioan Gruffudd....

HaveALittleFaith · 07/07/2012 22:07

Tis nice isn't it? I'm not jealous, much
I'm in a people I was hoping to be on mat leave with will be back by the time I'm diffed day. One girl at work told me she was diffed at 11 weeks and she just went on mat leave for 6 months....another girl told me she was diffed, we'd been TTC longer than her already. She's about to come back after 14 months off Hmm

We did manage the non-painful, yay! sechs today which should be ok timing wise but I don't hold out much hope. I in no way wore a thong and then chose to try on my wedding outfit when MSB was home from work to lure him into bed. Oh no, not me Grin

Northey · 07/07/2012 21:58

Oh, I'm pleased for her. That's good news.

HaveALittleFaith · 07/07/2012 19:52

:( to cavey for the travelling man and super :( Angry about the prospect of cold showers for a couple of days!

Did my trip round the vairy posh supermarket Tescos disappointed with the clothes selection so just bought food and cleaning supplies. I'm so rock'n'roll Hmm

I was trying to avoid calling her my 'beautician' norf! Trying to think of what lady flowers could be...I imagine sellers of vagisil and femfresh using it as a slogan making your fanjo smell like laydee flowers

On another note I have stalked name searched and it appears dizzy has laid norf. A lickle girl.

alwyn · 07/07/2012 19:26

Could be worse - our boiler has fried itself with all the rain. Pissing through from a corroded flue and streaming through the boiler. Can't get a new flue until Monday. Arse.

CaveMum · 07/07/2012 19:05

Nope, definitely his fault Grin. The venue is about 160 miles from us. I can't believe that it took him 3 hours to travel 30 miles before sending me a text. My hunch is he left at about 5 and then hit traffic. Men! Tsk.

OP posts:
Northey · 07/07/2012 19:01

I'd be narked too, cave. Even though technically it isn't his fault. Probably.

faif i thought you were talking about some things called lady flowers and was most confused about whether it was a euphemism.

CaveMum · 07/07/2012 18:18

Ooo LP are you East Angular too??? Just got home, local town was packed.

Feeling narked with HWHNN though, he's gone to an air show with a mate today and they were supposed to leave just after 3 to get back in time for us to spend a decent evening together. He's just texted to say he's still 130 miles away and stuck in a mahoosive traffic jam Angry

Have you got more woo planned euro? I felt do much better after my massage I took my beauty lady flowers! :) I guess all you can do is go with the flow for now. Is the plan to just let the fake hormones leave your system and go back to having the sechs and see what happens?

I am a bit miz, almost like today has been the first day in months we've stopped and it's a massive anti-climax. I'm going to go to the supermarket in a bit since I need GF pizza for dinner and frankly, I quite enjoy it!

I know little of horses having only ridden about 4 times. Just remembered my DMum having a lesson and squealing as she climed on: argh it moves Grin

Enjoy the torch watching Cavey!

alwyn · 07/07/2012 17:50

euro maybe the relaxation about it is just what you need.

eurochick · 07/07/2012 17:18

Norfy my body is currently a mystery to me. I have no idea how much the drugs will have f*ed things up, nor indeed whether I should count CD1 as when I started my bleed or when I stopped the drugs. Isn't it fun? I had lots of ov twinges as soon as I came off the drugs but nothing for the past few days. My boobs don't hurt though, so I can be pretty sure I haven't oved but that's about it. After well over a year of temping and knowing exactly where in my cycle I was, this feels rather odd. I am trying to go with it rather than menkul about it....

But hurrah for the sechsgymkhana! Poor KFZK. He's a bit under the weather and all. He won't know what has hit him. Grin

Norfy I think the answer to the clit Q is "yes" and is why so many teenaged girls are so keen on ponies. Wink

Enjoy the torch. Let's hope they have relit it, eh?

Hmmmmm...Cavelina, me thinks you'll be very very near to our house this evening...

Northey · 07/07/2012 16:24

As I am newly horsey, cavey, I shall be right there, with inane questions like "Am I meant to end up sitting on my clitoris?" and "Is it normal to be afflicted with dreadful flatulence when trotting?" Sadly, no one will believe I'm not taking the piss.

Congrats on the end of sludge, euro, and best wishes for your very own sechsgymkhana later. If that is indeed still the plan. Any idea at all what the heck your body might be doing at the moment?

CaveMum · 07/07/2012 15:59

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I'm about to head out as the Olympic torch is passing through our vicinity in about an hour [outs self]

Hope you've all noticed that Clare Balding is doing a web chat on Monday at 1.30pm, so I'll be expecting you all to pitch in with horsey questions Grin
