Round up your ghosties and ghoulies and long legged beasties, the BESH are going to scare out the BFPs!

No, it's really cool, fsr. I wish I knew all about racing.

How is your chest this morning, winklepicker?

Sorry Norf, I tend to forget that my racing speak is a whole other language to other people

Congrats on the "titled" womble Faith

Evil hope nothing more than your pride was hurt.

I eventually told my folks about TTC last year when I had to go in for my laparoscopy. They've been great about it, though my mum gets upset sometimes and says she worries she did something wrong when she was pregnant with me

Got an important meeting this morning, the future of my company could depend on it . There's very little chance of the company disappearing, but we could undergo a pretty drastic reshuffle. Thankfully my job isn't under threat.

Partner at the time wasn't impressed.

Poor you norf. Am also too hot to sleep but for me its early onset chest infection. Sent home early from chocolate stealing office of torture. Would some paracetamol & a glass of milk help you?

Too hot to sleep. Probably some sort of early menopause hot flush...

winkles, that's some impressive droid.

Oh euro You ok?

I wouldn't worry about the grooming. You have nothing on me. I had an office social event tonight. Walking there with a large group of colleagues I managed to faceplant onto the pavement. There goes my thin veneer of sophistication.... Grooming is frankly irrelevant now. And irritatingly I was sober. Meh.

Nice sleb womble faif.

Draf, I emailed my mum in the end to tell her about it. It kind of backfired on me, but then she is mental.

Christmas is for nob jockeys.

Best. Sentence. EVER!

Could you maybe write something down for her instead draf? Hope your droid fucks off shortly. My personal record is a 30 day droid.

I am middling, grooming-wise. My hair is very cooperative, which makes a huge difference. Can't be arsed with makeup though, that's just for special occasions.

Day seven and droid is still here, dribbling along. If it's still there on Monday I shall go to the GP.

Also next week, my mum is visiting my grandparents so hopefully I'll be able to see her. I will attempt once again to tell her about TTC, but given that so far I've bottled it not got round to mentioning it I am unsure whether the conversation will be had.

Congrats on your sleb internals faith, you must now start telling us all about being only the second woman ever to breed, in style of your womb-sake

Hope the drugs are having the intended effect as well as the spotty one frank!

A royal womble?

Oh forgot to say I have a titled uterus. Just like Imogen Thomas, me!

Sorry about the job, faith, though well done for doing well.

I'm sorry I missed it. Though that is fairly incomprehensible to me, so perhaps it's just as well.

Hurrah for working drugs! Here, try my special toad paste for the spots.

As long as you are happy Faith

I don't know about warty, but I'm definitely spotty. These bloody hormones, I'm breaking out all over the place

Shouldn't complain though, at least it means they're having some effect.

The Frankel debate was a bit shite, they concluded that Frankel was the equal of Mill Reef, Brigadier Gerard, Secretariat and Sea Bird. Bit of a pointless exercise really!

Hello chatty hags! I did get out of bed. Busy day! I didn't get the job but I'm fine about it. Apparently I did well (someone else just did slightly better!) but I'm happy. I've agreed to transfer to a different ward for a bit (where my office was for my previous job) and I'm happy with that choice.

Yes bugs is funny on FB! Great photos :)

Getting close jeffers! Hope it all goes swimmingly.

Though my look is just right for a warty haggy old witch.

I constantly fail to be groomed :(

Norf that was my feeling exactly.... thought it would have been more fun than stabbing.

I just want CD1 to come so I can phone the clinic and get it confirmed. I keep having dreams that they can't fit me in or that they say I'm not on their records.

I am envious of people that manage to be well groomed all the time. I have the hair of a lion, it's hard to tame!

I can recommend bugs on Facebook, though she turns out to be depressingly pretty and well-groomed all the time.

jeffy, I would be v cross at being deprived the sniffing stuff. I like the idea of the nurses solicitously handing you a rolled up £50. Are you feeling excited about starting next week?

Frankel I can't get radio 5 in my hotel room otherwise I would have tuned in.....

I like old school insults. Wankstain is another one of my favourites. Classy me. Didn't see the thread Rie. Have you sorted out Christmas yet? My SiL has decided that they are going to have their own family do this year - funny that it was their turn to host us all. I can't bear the thought of my parents being on their own so we will have them round. My sister & her boyf live too far away. Christmas is for nob jockeys.

If anyone is interested, they're having a talk/debate about Frankel on Radio 5 right now

Did you see the thread where usualsuspect was told "your a belend"? Oh the mirth it caused!
