The OFFICIAL buddy bench/naughty bench thread No. 4

[Teaandcakeplease]

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

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

Oh I see. Yes I have a fringe. Makes a nice change, I like my look with it.

Morning!!! :)

Why did you get called an arsehole yanky I do think that a lot of people come on MN specifically for a good fight!

I have always wondered why fringes are 'bangs'

Morning all, can I come and join in here please? I come bearing homemade choc fudge cake (wheat & dairy free as DD3 is BF and intollerant) and rose wine!

Hello :)

Anyone who brings cake to the bench is very welcome five

at anyone calling you an asshole Cheerful - you are Lovely - Do you want me to give them a slap for ya ?

Thankyou. Just about to make a batch of fairy cakes with DD2 in a while, lemon or vanilla?
This is so much nicer than being wound up on other threads.........and breathe.......

Ooooooo lemon fairy cakes - yummy! I'm about to make a choc cake , ds put in his order before he left for school

No news yet on BP yet valium so hopefully thats a good sign . If i don't hear anything by Thursday ill phone GP & ask for the results . Don't want to be a PITA
Are you enjoying DH & Ds being back home ?

Sorry to hear you're having BP probs Elmo. My mum came off her BP tabs recently due to a possible side effect but BP shot back up so she's on a new one now. Do I take it that this is non pregnancy related? Mine is normaly so low that I'm almost clinicly dead when pregnant, except last DC (no 5) when I suddenly got eclampsia. Shocked everyone.
Cakes all round again by the way.

Unfortunately my High BP is because of my kidney disease {according to GP anyway}

I'm falling apart at the grand old age of 36
Yummmmmy cakes [munch munch munch]

Mmm, cake! Especially wheat free! Delicious.

Yes, it's a fringe...actually I think it is the same haircut you got recently tea. I will try to get a pic on my profile thing so you can see.

I'll link you the thread. The OP and I have actually been PM-ing a bit and we've both apologized, so everything's fine now. :o

Miss you all, wish I had more time to "talk". I might actually have functioning internet at my house soon and then I suspect I will do nothing but. :)

here

And :o at you slapping anyone Elmo...we'll have to keep a list and then if gomummy and I ever make it over there it'll be a right old slap-a-thon! :o

love the idea of a "Slap List"

Can i slap & then run really fast away ?

LOL @ slap-a-thon Cheerful! Would work out ok, Elmo, as I'd not slap first but am excellent backup when you run!

Glad it worked out OK with the OP on other thread though Cheerful, was truthfully hoping it was a windup when I read the thread. :(

What is everyone planning for Family Day later this month? Or is Family Day everywhere?

What's Family Day? I want one!

My post disappeared!

Morning! :)

I must brave the hell that is Tescos......... I might be some time....................

Family day?

yanky your wedding pic is just beautiful!

Oh really cheerful, let's see a pic of the haircut

Glad you've made up with the other poster

OK, so I am now guessing that it is not everywhere!

Cheerful & Valium - Family Day here is in the third week in February, falls on the 21st this year, a holiday for some but not all. Also, I think it has different names in different provinces. Ironically, we usually don't see family. Our new tradition (only a few years old) is to go and visit our "adopted" families....older couples with no children or none that are close enough to come for family day. It's a really nice day for us, I am really looking forward to it. Also, it is another excuse to bake!

No Family days here either gomummy but it sounds like a lovely day to have
What are you planning to bake ?

*valium did you survive the trip to Tesco's lol?

Cheerful i want to see your new haircut too

Elmo :) For the couple we're visiting in the morning (brunch-ish) we're planning to bring a strawberry/rhubarb/almond bread with a crunchy topping, then stopping at home and for the couple in the afternoon we're bringing them a portobello layered parmesan mashed potato thing. Tastes much better than it sounds, lol! You're welcome to recipies if either interest you.

Hi all,
