to say that you've gorn and done it again, IPOAT?

[Hullygully]

Weddings.

We.end.with.weddings.

Not monkey shit.

It is nearly 7 mins long but oh so worth it.

lol widow

Go Jins go! Be! Aggressive! Got to be aggressive! B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E!

Personally, I always like the nurses who don't appear to be seventeen and stupid much better.

Thanks ladies.

I love Jo Brand so that's just perfect.

Just off to get changed and tie my bedraggled and uncut hair into a nice neat ponytail.

Then I'm off!

Goodluck.

Good luck!

Hello children. Just popping in after 3 weeks away. all round. What a great emoticon; when did that arrive?

Jins, I hope your interview this evening went well.

Mini, hope you have a great holiday.

Pag, did DS1 decide to accept the Exeter offer?

Gibbon, so good to hear that all is well with DD2.

Hully, how is DS now?

Cheerful Yank, how nice to have you back!

Has MN really been very horrid over the last few weeks? And what news of Riven? Heard her predicament reported on Sky News while I was away.

Princessa! welcome home my lovely

3 weeks away, how wonderful! bet you are feeling like a new woman. Yes MN has gorn mad. Totally. Riven is still laying low I think.

Waves to princessa. Offers toast and marmalade.

Yo Prnicessa! Hope Portugal was cold wet miserable and boring??

MN is trying to eat itself, some of still try to have fun, but it's frankly uphill going.

Jins - how did it go..?

Hully, you will be pleased to hear that the first few days were somewhat wet and windy. After that it was v pleasant indeed. Sadl, though, I appear to have come down with some lurgy which prevents me from doing anything much today. Might be forced to check out a few other threads rather than attacking pile of washing.

Mwah mwah all round.

What did you do? I like Portoogal, I like Lisbon and Sintra and Cascais and Oporto (for the port nom nom).

Me and dh are developing an exciting new pastime of emailing lots of diff tour companies around the world expressing an interest in wild and expensive itineraries. It's almost as good as going there, altho there is the inconvenience that many have discovered fb and keep asking to be our friends...

Sorry to hear of your lurgy.

I am having one of those days that make you want to scream and call everyone a bunch of cunts.

I am biting my tongue and typing bad language instead.

Hope all went well btw Jins.

Sorry for delayed response. It seemed to go well. She was very nice and reassuring and seemed to be quite positive so I filled my form in there and then.

Nervously awaiting full interview now

Well done Jins!

Sup Gibb?

Thank you girls for your support earlier.

My, the world of commerce and boys is a roller coaster ride.

29 year old thinks I am gorgeous. And adorable. Which is, of course true. But he is, blimey, well 29. And a cuddly 29 at that.

Had a date last night. The bloke nearly sucked my face off, couldn't keep his hands off me. Then emailed me upon return to say he wasn't going to see me again because it was too full on. Ya what?

So am keeping my hand in with the professor, aka Greg Wallace. Who at least has a mind and worships other bits of me.

But still, they are all bonkers.

good lord, Mimi. Who is this professor chappy?

You kept quiet about the prof mimi

Spill

Just one of those days hully when one is pulled in every direction and bit worried about Dad too. But fingers crossed all will be well.

[manic grin]

Glad it went well Jins btw

I'm going to have to leave MN soon - I have just called someone an ignorant moron.

And I can't stand the amount of thick horrid people around at the moment.

Hully. Noo. Don't go, hangs onto Hulls leg.
There are some v. destructive opinions around at the mo. I avoid engaging (coward emoticon).

On another note, I am trying on frocks, walzing, around the ballroom and looking forward to chocolate, for my wee holiday next week. Tis a respite from the football training.

Hully darling, say it ain't so! The people who aren't horrid and thick (aka IPOAT, of course) must stick around to make it better. That's our rallying cry in America lately- yes, a good deal of my countrypeople seem to have gone insane and mean-spirited, but we who are not need to fight the good fight for justice and compassion. It's an uphill slog, but we'll get there. :)

A bit of waltzing will do us all good, mini. Excellent idea!

Sorry things are going poorly, Gibbs. Anything I can do?

Sounds wonderful, Jins! Good on ya for being proactive.

Hello Princess! Lovely to see you!
