Hannah! how can you cope that long!

Woody come back to us!!!!

MrsBri · 16/10/2012 15:11

*wouldn't want

MrsBri · 16/10/2012 15:10

Lol...be prepared to be cold in November. Barely above freezing today. Gorgeous and sunny though. :-)

Just chilling in our apartment before heading out again.

Decided against a 3.5 hour ice hike while we are here. I would want to fall over and I'm not sure I would have the energy. Shame, but got to be sensible.

HannahJayne · 16/10/2012 14:39

I can't wait. Haven't had more than a day's annual leave since last Christmas. We had a new kitchen and bathroom this summer instead of a holiday!

Where's Woody? Want to hear about Rome and/or other news!!

Thundernonk · 16/10/2012 13:59

I think it was about 5.5 hours. We only went for a week, chose it because it was just about do-able flight length in order to get into a lovely bit of Africa and have a different kind of adventure! Sardinia is lovely too btw, and closer!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 16/10/2012 13:37

Thanks thunder. How far is Gambia? We only have 3/4 nights for Easter.
Been to Morocco and did enjoy it.

Thundernonk · 16/10/2012 13:35

Come back woody!!

All these holidays are making me jealous too!

lol, not Europe but not far away- I had a great holiday in Gambia in Feb one year. I'm more of an 'off the beaten track' type, so avoided all the resorts and had a fantastic time. I understand people can be pushy in resorts which was the opposite of what we experienced there elsewhere.

Also I understand Morocco's great fun for an adventure. Never been myself, and know it's pretty hectic, but in a fun, colourful experience kind of way. Just a thought....

Lolcbcblemonlime · 16/10/2012 13:22

Where is woody??? Maybe hiding a bfp!??
I'm off to Iceland for a short break in nov and can't wait!
The only thing that takes my mind off ttc is holiday planning at the moment!
Will now start working on Cuba for jan and maybe somewhere else for Easter. An exotic break in Europe. Any ideas??

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 16/10/2012 09:07

ohh everyone is going off on holiday! so jealous! we had ours early this year so it seems forever since I saw the sun :(

Hope you all have a fab time! while the welsh weather tries to drown me

no news here, seems like we are all mid-cycle, but that means BFP's all together in a few weeks! :)

letskiwithisthing · 16/10/2012 07:04

Wow Tunisia sounds fab Hannah, hope you had a good trip to Rome Woody and Nic, hope you're having a fantastic honeymoon in Iceland :)

Talyra · 15/10/2012 21:48

Oooh Tunisia sounds fabulous! Proper envy! Just what you need this time of year too :)

HannahJayne · 15/10/2012 18:38

That's crap Dulcet, and Batfink (catching up on the weekend's posts). Your time will come, in the meantime I very much like tal's port/pâté/unwashed salad approach.

I'm about 5dpo and trying to forget about it. With work and rugby training we only DtD on smiley day - and I'm not that lucky! At least AF will mean I can drink on my AI holiday to Tunisia on the 28th - positive mental attitude and all...

DulcetMoans · 15/10/2012 11:33

Thanks all. I'm ok really, just feel sorry for myself in general but it's fine. Just one if those things!

Raspberry - I'm out for a good reason, I'm getting married next year. This was the last chance of getting baby in before wedding really.

Thanks for all the virtual goodies tal. I will work on my list of things to be grateful for soon too!

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 15/10/2012 11:00

So sorry Dulcet, Thanks Sad hope you're ok. May I ask why you're out for 2012?

Good luck Block!!! Grin

MrsBri · 15/10/2012 10:32

Oh no, Dulcet, I'm sorry :-(

When will you start again?

And fx Block. Get shagging!

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 15/10/2012 10:31
  • could = coming
Talyra · 15/10/2012 10:30

Awww no Dulcet shares her port and brie and pate and unwashed salad

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 15/10/2012 10:30

ohh poor Dulcet you must feel miserable, cold are so annoying as they aren't bad enough to get sympathy properly, but you still feel rotten + AF could like she did :( - go buy some chocolate, and a nice mug of tea Brew

This is my busy DTD week! and thankfully it has coincided with the end of the marathon - so no excuses of DH being too tired from training! FX this month as I selfishly need a summer baby as it will be too much with the horses and a new baby in the winter :(

Thundernonk · 15/10/2012 10:24

Sad Angry Thanks

Sorry dulcet x x

DulcetMoans · 15/10/2012 10:11

Sorry thunder, I'm here! AF arrived yesterday though so isn't good news from me. She's been a tricksy minx this month, 4-6 days late and started all weird and light which is unusual. No question now though! So I am out for 2012 now I think. I will join the experiment into symptom spotting!

And I have a cold! Sad

MrsBri · 15/10/2012 09:11

Funny! :-)

Thundernonk · 15/10/2012 08:42

July?!, I meant MY! Point proven re fingers

Thundernonk · 15/10/2012 08:41

It's been three whole days! and keeping fx this long is impeding July ability to do things

MrsBri · 15/10/2012 08:36

How impatient are you, Thunder?! :-)

Thundernonk · 15/10/2012 07:55

Congrats nic! Sounds like you had a really lovely day.

Now, where's dulcet? And is woody not back til tomorrow?
