The Genuine BESH Palais. To misquote Carlsberg, we're probably the barrenest TTC-ers in the world...

We are Barren. We are Evil, on account of having left procreating until our 30s. We are Selfish, thinking only of careers and money and cars and holidays. And lastly, we are Hags. Welcome to the BESH gin palace. Babydusters and instadiffers need not apply.

twonks oh fucking hell. I am sorry. I just saw the word 'star' and assumed it would have the word Trek after it with the fillum just being released and rushed to post. Please don't be disappointd. I can't bear it.

I have been perusing threads a lot the last couple of days. I now know far far more about pus and parasites than I ever wanted to.

DolomitesDonkey had an ace answer to one such question, winks - she advised the person to pee on the keyboard and the internet would tell her.

This isn't in relation to any one particular thread, but...

JUST PEE ON A FUCKING STICK, HOW THE HELL WOULD ANYONE ON THE INTERNET KNOW???

Sorry. Needed to get that off my chest. I think I might create a web page that just says that, and link to it on every single 'lolz hubby n me dtd 3 times n we r ttc r first bubz cud i be pg?' thread.

twonks twonks twonks QUICK QUICK QUICK new ST film to be shot in the UK. It says it on the news so it must be true.

franks dance for me baby. Dance like the wind.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 11/05/2013 10:12

Fanks hags, you're not such an evil bunch after all Wink

Off for a dance lesson shortly, then to the hat hire place to sort out my Ascot hat and then Star Trek tonight Grin

Morning Gorgeous Hags

frank burpy halfday to you (a Dad joke - love it). Are you doing anything nice for it ?

raff when is your lap ? It makes you feel so much better when things happen, doesn't it ?

twonks I saw the review of ST in the paper yesterday and thought of you. Apparently it's very good. Is that right ? Grin

Gently but playfully tweaks the nips of everyone else and sprinkles fish flavoured edible glitter everywhere.

Happy burfday frank!

HWCA is very similar to my ex, both tend towards muscular (although HWCA is also a little rounded over his muscles, they are most definitely there), dark curly hair, Roman noses, and stubborn as all hell. So despite my ex being female, I apparently have a very definite type.

I always thought I liked tall and dark and then I fell for MrH who's short and blond. Just shows....

Oh and happy burfday Franky! :)

HadALittleFaithBaby · 11/05/2013 02:37

I only saw to 1 hour 20 mins in and then a screaming child commanded my attention (needed to settle her and no Virgin in the bedroom). I was really enjoying it up til that point though and have it recorded. I think MSB might like it too so hopefully it's something we can watch together?

I don't really have a 'type' but MSB is on the chunky side. He is a proper blokey looking bloke - makes some people think he's tough and I have to explain he's actually quite sensitive! He's just decided to join a gym near work so knowing him he'll be leaner soon!

evilgiraffe · 10/05/2013 23:27

I like the middle ground - not too burly, not too skinny. HOTB has swimmer's (and now cyclist's) legs - muscular and jaw-droppingly hot. I remember seeing them for the first time aged sixteen in a PE lesson and being utterly floored, and they've only got better with time...

Anyway, I'm just back from Star Trek - SO FUCKING BRILLIANT. Pine and Quinto and Urban are perfect, and The Batch kicks ass! Hurrah! Going to see it again next weekend Grin

Twinks it's a laparoscopy to check out/remove an ovarian cyst and possibly inflated Fallopian tube. I'm not really worried, but am ever so slightly wobbly about it if I think about it too much.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 10/05/2013 22:53

Did you enjoy Faith. It's a complete tour de force.

JethroTull · 10/05/2013 22:20

hest I'm fond of The Grohl too. He just seems like an all round good egg.

JethroTull · 10/05/2013 22:18

Draff I think me & Becks would get on just fine then!! Grin Brainpower has never been my strong point. Saying that SSG is very intelligent and we do alright.

Rugby players don't do it for me. I like wiry. Athletic. Hence being married to a marathon runner.

HadALittleFaithBaby · 10/05/2013 19:02

Ooh Sherlock from the start on Alibi now. Season link now started since you lot rave about it so much!

HesterShaw · 10/05/2013 17:56

Oh I could so do The Grohl. He seems popular with MNers - I wonder if he knows...

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 10/05/2013 17:46

See I'm pretty sure my "type" is tall, skinny and intellectual (see The Batch and Matt Smith). Funny thing is HWHNN is tall and intellectual, but not skinny. He's not fat, but he is broad shouldered and could never carry off being wirey.

Saying all that, Dave Grohl is also on my list - my bit 'o rough Grin

TWinklyLittleStar · 10/05/2013 17:01

What op is it draf?

evilgiraffe · 10/05/2013 15:10

In other news, I just had a telephone pre-op! Very exciting, and I have to go in for blood tests the week before the op. It's all looming quite close now, nice after all these years of waiting for something (anything) to happen.

evilgiraffe · 10/05/2013 15:08

Beckham is pretty, but the lack of brainpower is a huge turn off.

Rhod is very funny, but otherwise nothing special, I think. You can't go posting pictures of rugby players, though, so many of them are gorgeous. I was sad when Jason Robinson retired from internationals :(

HadALittleFaithBaby · 10/05/2013 14:40

Ew no not Becks...unless he agreed not to speak at all! Huge Ackman is the only one who'd really float my boat. Maybe Bradley Cooper...he's tasty.
