I have opened the Wine
(true fact, not a lyric)

What I want most to do, is to get close to you
80s
(a lyric. possibly also a true fact. I'm still talking about the Wine...)

One whole day Rogue. This time tomorrow I will be really happy 😄

That's so mean, coffee.

Get petty revenge by doing naff all and eating chocolate. Works for me!

Pantry's beady eyes are in full holiday mode. Grin

If eating chocolate and doing nothing is what gets you through you go for it!

NeedToKnow101 · 31/03/2021 19:31

I'm almost freeeee!!! Got online training tomorrow, with a bit of a gruelling schedule, then free.. anyway I'm pouring wine now in anticipation.

Congrats on the move Midge! Hope you got some electric heaters?!!!! 😱😱
Stay cool Honey 😎😘

❤️

Eating chocolate and doing nothing has what’s got me through the last 12 months, almost! Unfortunately it’s not been so good for my wasteline. Or backside. Or bat wings. Etc.

We haven't once finished early on the last day of term, even end of year!

Thanks for all the zen etc. I know, it’s carrying me through, but I’m giddy with excitement and you lot know I’m a chatterbox, don’t keep much secret! I don’t want to tell my boss for another month at least! I need to be a bit more elusive and mysterious like our Roguey. (sorry you were poorly post jab too).

shinynewapple21 · 31/03/2021 20:15

That's a relief for you then Midge. Smile

Is there just me in work next week then ? Never mind I get to take advantage of cheaper term time holidays !

You will be doubly busy then in April, Honey, returning to the cafe but also planning your own venture .

Hope you will be feeling better soon Rogue.

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 20:52

Love you guys soooo much. . Rather than replying to each of you individually and quoting all your posts and fling up the thread with drunken deep and meaningful posts

Pantry - you don't miss a thing! I hope you're able to relax properly these holidays. You guys need it more than anyone else on here. I know how full on and horrific it's been and you have to support/carry us all along. Big respect/love

needtoknow get through the day and come join us- holidays are fab!!!! Thoroughly recommend them!

Honey, #metoo. I have my first exercise class in months tomorrow. Absolutely shitting myself. I don't think I'm capable of a sit-up. In fact, once down, I might never get up again!

And I don't think anyone could ever describe me as mysterious! But many would live me to be more elusive.

Coffee - as one is allowed to swear on mn, I'll just say they are cnts! The BEST* thing about big holidays is the early finish. Not that I ever get to finish early, but it's sooooooo lovely when they all go home, and you just think "ok, just need to do xxx and finish yyy and then I can stop"

  • disclaimer: in non covid times this is NOT the best thing about holidays, it's just a nice perk. But times are lean... simple pleasures!

Shiny, we all envy you your cheap(er) hols!

Peace and love everyone 💕 ❤ 💓 (I might be really very quite drunk!)

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 20:53

Oh god, the typos.

I blame the 🍷

Honeyroar · 31/03/2021 20:55

I like a happy drunk!😘

FlouncingBabooshka · 31/03/2021 21:06

😘

Mind if I sit quietly in the corner while I catch up on everyone’s news?

I’ve had a weird few weeks so haven’t been around much lately. I think I’m having a mid-life crisis...

Has everyone been jabbed now? I had a pretty grim reaction, not helped by the fact that poor DH decided another midnight jaunt to A&E was in order. They wouldn’t let me in with him, despite the fact I’m supposed to be allowed as I’m an official carer. I had to fight off the side effects of the jab whilst sitting in a freezing car from midnight until he came out at 4.30am...

Anyway, off to catch up on some posts...

Love to you all ❤️

CoffeeBeansGalore · 31/03/2021 21:08

Thank you Roguey. Be careful you don't pull anything tomorrow (unless it's a hunky instructor 😉)

OP posts:
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 21:19

Coffee, 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My instructor is gorgeous and I'm def in love. But I really don't fancy her!

Honey, how very dare you. I'm completshly shober!

FlouncingB, we love you. So sorry for all the ways things are hard in your life (lives). Big, big hugs x

Honeyroar · 31/03/2021 21:48

Need a bit more lyric please Rogue.

So sorry you’re having such a tough time Babooshka. Sending hugs.

And why does Brittney not bloomin remember how to spell your name!!

Fleamaker123 · 31/03/2021 21:54

👋Babooshka, that sounds hard 😔

Rogue, I keep thinking the Carpenters. But I know that's too obvious.

Fleamaker123 · 31/03/2021 21:55

Maxi Priest? I just wanna be close to you...

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 21:59

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 22:00

P.s. my brittney knows FlouncingB. It obvs loves you more than Honey's

NeedToKnow101 · 31/03/2021 22:10

Lots of love to you FlouncingB.. ❤️💕❤️

Rogue - I know that lyric

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 31/03/2021 22:35

Not a chance, needtoknow

Honeyroar · 31/03/2021 22:55

Perhaps FlouncingB is easier to remember;or cheating?)

FlouncingBabooshka · 31/03/2021 23:49

Aw, thank you all - you’re all lovely ❤️❤️❤️

I’ve read the last few pages - hope I’ve not missed anything important/scandalous.

Rogue - what prompted that name change? I’ve clearly missed some bad behaviour...

Hope all the teachers/school workers enjoy the Easter holidays.

Congratulations Midge on the house move - hope you get that heating sorted out.

Good luck back at work Honey and happy planning for the new venture.

Flowers to all with aged P worries - I know how hard that is. My DF had both Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia- it’s heartbreaking and I can’t imagine how hard it would have been throughout the last year.

Sleep well everyone.

I might even post some lyrics tomorrow Smile
