Come hither all those who haven't found their place on mumsnet, have scrapped in Aibu or crossed words in chat. The buddy bench shalt not judge.

The buddy bench will hand out wine and cakes, it will join you on your scoffathons getting pissed

All those who sit on the bench, will have their sins erased and be given a warm welcome and cheerful chat from CheerfulYank, gomummy, tired mum, Elmo, AF, HE, Cheesey and far, far too many more to mention.

Welcome to the buddy bench, we look forward to meeting you all Smile

Oh and don't forget, last one to leave polishes bench and locks up!

Should hasten to add that the parcel contains nothing grand...just a little something DS helped me choose. :)

valiumredhead · 29/03/2011 20:24

Glad you are healing well tired :) When are you moving?

Tiredmumno1 · 29/03/2011 20:26

Cheerful its the thought that counts and you really didnt need to, you are a lovely person, say thank you to your ds, i shall let you know when i pick it up, its just so exciting coming from america

I bet you get loads of snoopy stuff over there, i am his biggest fan Grin

Tiredmumno1 · 29/03/2011 20:29

Thanks valium, it will be next week that we move now, as the landlord is having the place cleaned and new carpets laid Smile

valiumredhead · 29/03/2011 20:45

Ooooooo how nice, new carpets! Do you get to choose the colour?

elmofan · 29/03/2011 20:49

Hello Smile

The new house sounds lovely Tiredmum , are you all getting excited about moving ?

gomummygo · 29/03/2011 22:52

Good afternoon benchers! :)

Shock I must know how mail between US and UK quickly? I think our postal system here must rely on largely upon carrier pigeons. As far as I'm aware we are going over the same ocean...this has never made sense to me!

So if we could ever manage to organize a bench meetup, what would we want to eat? My wish would be a variety of cheeses and crusty bread.

CheerfulYank · 29/03/2011 22:58

Yes with fruit and wine! :)

That's interesting gomummy, I'm not sure why it would be so different.

Oooh, new carpets always make things so much better tiredmum. And DS is thrilled that the package got there; he thinks the postal system is just a marvel! :o

I vote for something delicious and decadent as a dessert for the meet-up.

candleshoe · 30/03/2011 10:40

Morning all! Smile

elmofan · 30/03/2011 13:55

Oooh the bench looks lovely candle Smile

How is everyone today?

valiumredhead · 30/03/2011 14:08

Hello! :)

The sun has disappeared and it is wet and raining 'sigh'............... meant to be 20 degrees at the weekend though. Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

elmofan · 30/03/2011 14:13

The sunshine has come over to me today valium
we had the rain yesterday.

CheerfulYank · 30/03/2011 20:30

It's finally starting to get sunny here too! :) This snow might actually melt someday! YAY!

candleshoe · 30/03/2011 20:53

Yay for melting snow!

CheerfulYank · 30/03/2011 22:07

YAY INDEED!

I started a thread asking for best cleaning and organizing tips and no one has responded yet. :( I really need some! Gomummy, I have a feeling you'd be most helpful in this capacity! :)

gomummygo · 31/03/2011 01:26

Envy It snowed yesterday.

I am off to check out your thread Cheerful! Grin

CheerfulYank · 31/03/2011 01:33

Tea shared a link with me. Twill be quite helpful I think :)

Also started an AIBU...I'm just a regular thread starting machine today! :)

Sorry about your snow, it's so hateful this time of year! :(

Tiredmumno1 · 31/03/2011 11:33

Yup we got to choose the colour, we picked cream, at least its neutral

We are getting excited even if its a bit daunting, hopefully it will go smoothly

CheerfulYank · 31/03/2011 21:17

That sounds nice, cream goes with everything and will brighten things up! Good luck!

gomummygo · 01/04/2011 12:55

Good morning all! First day of April and we're having a beautiful snowfall. (Note the dripping sarcasm). Tiny little patches of hope grass that had begun to appear are white once again. Ok, moan over. :)

Yes sounds nice tiredmum, it will be bright and neutral! Hope everything goes smoothly for you. Have you got much packing done?

What is everyone planning for this weekend?

CheerfulYank · 01/04/2011 13:00

Morning! :) (we need a sunshine emoticon!)

It snowed here too yesterday! Bluck! It was only a bit and it didn't stick around, but it's the principle of the thing.

DS is getting his pictures take this afternoon at the local photography studio. The owner was looking for a model to do a sample Easter photo shoot with rabbits and she picked DS :o It will be fun to see his pictures hanging in the studio window.

What's everyone else up to? Anyone been April Fooled yet? :)

valiumredhead · 01/04/2011 13:21

Hello! :)

I have just come back from physio and acupuncture - had needles stuck all over me! Grin

I have also just discovered how to 'hide' a thread - very useful Wink

Cream carpets tired? Lovely but SO brave! Grin Look lovely and light and airy though and will go with everything. How's Jamie? Are you getting any sleep?

Snow?????? eek I don't envy the benchers with snow! Sad

candleshoe · 01/04/2011 17:45

DD has split head open on a gravestone while running through the churchyard ... 6 stitches and a probable scar ... bang goes that career as a WAG or MAW!

elmofan · 01/04/2011 17:55

Oh no candle Sad your poor dd .

Just realised this thread is almost full Shock

candleshoe · 01/04/2011 22:04
