Anyone up?

[WakeUpFromYourDreamAndScream]

Anyone else awake at this ridiculous hour? I'm up watching Naked Gun 33 1/3 with a sore throat from hell. Feeling very sorry for myself

Why are you up?

Hey I'll join you....
Am up as autistic four year old has decided it's morning and a great time to play her piano
Hope your throat improves!

I'm watching you tube, a woman talking about her shopping in Aldi , she keeps pointing to a drinking cup with the word " fancy" on it and then saying "faaaannncy" in a silly voice! She 8s now cooking Tacos and making a salad.
I bet you wished you hadn't asked 🤣

@doubleshotespresso oh no, not a good time for piano playing! Will she be distracted by anything else? Thank you, hate sore throats I'm a big baby when it comes to one

@GoldenHoops bizarre! 😂 amazing what you can find on you tube! My DD (2) likes to watch people paint their fingers different colours!

I hope your throat gets better, Are you taking anything for it?

Suck on an ice cube it will numb your throat.

I'm trying to decide whether I want to drag my ass out of bed and go get some McDonalds and read the new Jack Reacher novel or go back to sleep.

Yes we have settled on a weird combo of crayons and a box of beads. Now matching colours and announcing each as go... vast improvement on piano ;-)

Youtube really covers all bases eh? Hello @goldenhoops

I woke just over an hour ago. In the third or fourth day of a cold which has suddenly ramped up, coughing, sneezing and throat quite sore. Flipping nuisance because I am singing (a very small part) in a show tonight, it's the last night of the run and I really want to do it.

@doubleshotespresso ah that's much more civilised for this time! 

@GoldenHoops thanks, I've had Ibuprofen and some Difflam spray, haven't got any ice cubes made up unfortunately @knittedjest

Definitely get the McDonald's! They are always worth the trip, get me a Big Mac please 🍔 🍟

Welcome @Bloodybridget I feel your pain. Mine started off with labyrinthitis and now is a cold with really sore throat. Hope you manage to sing still 🙏

knittedjest my DP would love the idea of MacDonalds at this hour!

Thanks Wakeup, hope your poor throat gets better soon too. Do you find yourself swallowing when you don't need to, just to see if it's still hurting?

I’m up! Sore throat, DH snoring, leg hurts and in hotel bed, so can’t go anywhere. Aargh!

I’m awake, I just can’t sleep. 😔

Haha yes! @Bloodybridget and in turn the constant swallowing makes me feel sick. Fed up!

I haven't had a Macdonalds for years🤔 I'm eating boring sugar free butterscotch, I will will regret it later😶
So far I've managed to avoid any coughs and colds, more luck than good immunity though.
My ds1 has Aspergers dubleshotespresso I remember the times we sat up 11 nights in a row once because he wanted to see the milkman arriving at 3ish.

I'm always up at this time. I love that the house is so quiet & I always watch the Horror Channel, currently watching Ibiza Undead, love zombie films, even the naff ones.

My cat Great Aunt Cassandra is sat next to me...

Up watching Wives with Knives and it takes a killer. Recommended! Ex FBI guy, Steve Moore, viciously sarcastic, rule 1 for murderers, don't take selfies with the corpse. V funny.

Welcome @Hazlenutpie @LaBelleSauvage123 @Tony2

@Tony2 what a wonderful name for a cat! Gorgeous!

Oops sorry I meant @Mumblers

My other cat is called Lady Hermione The Third 😁

@GoldenHoops yes we do a lot and I mean a lot of late nights with little or no sleep here. Am very accustomed to it now-but it is exhausting some weeks. I am actually allowing it ti happen tonight as tomorrow is Saturday.... too battered to battle

Haha amazing! @Mumblers do they have shortened versions when you call for them or do you shout the whole name?!

Mumblers if you take them to the vet, do the staff call out their full names in the waiting room?

Ha, same thoughts as WakeUp!

Haha yes, those are their 'Sunday best' names, but otherwise it's Cassie & Hermie. Couldn't quite bring myself to tell the vet their proper titles! So it's Cassandra & Hermione at the vets. I sound well posh don't I?!
