Ooh ooh! Do I get to start it?

Wine and cake all round. And a celebratory burst on the patriarchy-blasting cannon!

Old pub here

Wow, I like the bike symbol!

I have been to a lovely new cafe today, run by women and aiming to help other women. I wish it were closer, as it was a really nice place, and I would like to support the venture and meet friends there.

Kickass that sounds nice.

I have been to a couple of family funerals which were actually incredibly good. After my gran's we sat round in her dining room eating Chinese and going through te bizarre liqueurs in her drinks cabinet, chatting about family background and stories from her past. One of my best times ever with my family.

Funeral went as well as a funeral can. Feels very strange seeing so many youngish men crying, although I'm glad they felt able to. And since getting home and putting the small person to bed, I've been engrossed in a certain thread in AIBU. We've got a persistent cockwomble there, haven't we?

alex Didn't even get to the shop. Bloody traffic ... Do it tomorrow morning.

Evening, LordCopper. How are you? All recovered from your uniform stress?

UptoapointLordCopper · 07/08/2015 21:01

Here you are!

INicked Phew!

alexpolistigers · 07/08/2015 19:18

Evening all. Mine is a cider today because I am feeling a bit nostalgic and I can't just nip down to the local supermarket and buy a bottle of Woodpecker.

Congratulations on your wedding, Dragons, and phew to INicked. I hope the cysts clear up too.

And now I wish I hadn't posted that - the "message sent" message seems to be, er, stuck to my screen.

StormyBrid · 07/08/2015 18:47

Fantastic! Although I bet that's something you never thought would be an appropriate response to cysts...

kickassangel · 07/08/2015 18:38

Oh that's good.

MsDragons · 07/08/2015 18:02

That's brilliant news! I'm so happy for you.

YonicScrewdriver · 07/08/2015 17:58

Oh that's so
Good to hear Flowers

INickedAName · 07/08/2015 17:51

I'm so happy I could cry.

It's cysts.

I have to have another sonogram in a months time, just to make sure there's no changes, and they might drain it.

Nurses and doctors were really lovely. I can't thank them enough. Dh hugged me when we got out the hospital, something he never does, I think it's worried him more than I realised.

Just wanted to update you all and thank you again for listening.

INickedAName · 07/08/2015 12:37

NOt just you stormy. Right until yesterday I thought it was a special leaf and almost posted the same :)

I think it's the mumsnet logo.
