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

[Hullygully]

Weddings.

We.end.with.weddings.

Not monkey shit.

You do have licence to say almost anything hulster.

It is a power you must use with wisdom.

I know I know, Grasshopper

But Mimi!

Quel horreurs!

Quel vraiment horreurs, pas commes les petits choses dans les Halles de Mn.

Je t'embrasse.

I have never seen Hully cross

and where's Riven?

it's all weird

Sorry about Worries

And Mimi - OMG what a crapola day!

I have sent both my DSs to their room for an unspeakable fight.
We all need /[cup of tea]

James - you have sent them to have an unspeakable fight? Bravo!

- YES!! maybe that is the answer hully. Just let them slug it out. Small one is robust but big one uses underhand tactics.

Wild Things

Dd is learning wild thing on her electric guitar. She could do punch up sound track...

I have bgun Wine.

Am going to see friends and be on best behaviour and not get deleted hardly at all.

I haven't had a drink for about two weeks. I may get very drunk. All on my own. Would that be bad?

Dear Pag, that would probably be entirely sensible. (Am eyeing the cheap vodka in the fridge as I type.)

Have not the slightest idea what is going on, but, in all seriousness, Hully my dear, know I would back you up in an instant. Or less.

I am on second glass of wine. Which is a big deal for me

The place is weird fliffy. And pore hully who is usually waspish in a loveable way has just had a moments waspish in a ' mess with me and you die fuck head' way.

But we love her very much. In a sincere because she makes us laugh and is a very clever and kind girl way.

Have a drink with me fliff.

Dear Gibbon, am so sorry to hear your Dad may be ill again. Do hope that all will be well.

Jins, good news on the job front, and fingers crossed for the next round.

Mimi, I know you will rise above it all, in the manner of one who knows how to flick a fan and to parlay a reticule.

Oh bugger, cross-post with Pag. That will teach me not to answer the phone when I should be paying more attention to MN instead...

Dearest Pag, I am raising a glass with you. While contemplating the incineration of all of MN if posters do not realise the true and loving playful nature of our Hully.

How are the Paglets, dear thing?

Umm, I know we have had this pic before, but can't bring myself to recall the Huge Jackman pic, so here is a lullaby for Hully xx

I've been busy today so have flitted around MN without posting.

I saw Hully had been deleted in the thread about the thread about the thread about leQ so I guessed things were tense

I have a nice bottle of pedro ximenez here that I planned to use to make Christmas pud a la Nigella but never did. A small glass for everyone?

Firstly hello to all those visiting our thread of weirdness. You are all welcome take sanctuary here. It's a fucking cyber war zone across the boards of late.

Thank you for your lovely kind wishes princess he will get a bone scan in next week or two hopefully. They are just checking as he has pain that will not go in his shoulder with no obvious cause. Another wait for hopefully good news. Please God.

I am laying low a bit. Feel lately like I am just coming on to moan or use the word cunt copiously. I truly hope you and yours all keep well. Much love my gorgeous IPOATian chums xx

Nips in for glass of Pedro to go with cocoa. Activates protective force field around Ipoats, especially round mimi to keep out IR. Been watching too many star wars re-runs. Night Night folks

Paglets are fine fliffy.
Ds2 is doing a great line in teenage angst. I try hard not to laugh when he sends me to bed " you are very naughty mummy" but it is hard.

Gibb. Try not to fret about your dad hope all goes well.

Dear God Hully! who reported that post then?
I do v much hope you are well and truly refreshed by now, wherever you may be.

And to all other IPOATers: I often lurk here. Tis one little corner of sanity on Mumsnet .

Hey bibbity

Yes. We are sane compared to the rest of mn.
Which is saying something.

that post disappeared vair quick

I also lurk

tis a beacon, this thread, when the rest all goes to shit

ta very much

What ho, dear ladies! How delightful to find you all assembled here once again!

What say we all set sail again for distant shores?
Anyone else have a mind for the Barbadoes? Or somewhere else?

What about you, my comrades in arms of yore - Madame Pag, Madame Hully, Madame Gibbon, and of course Madame Mimi and the lovely Widow Umami? And what of the pirate James and that dear pamphleteer Mistress Wooll Woolstone (well, you know who I mean!) - shall you join us as well?
Dear ladies Jins, Mini, Bibbity and all new maidens - you are welcome aboard too!

Gibbon, this space is yours to moan as much as you like. And to swear too.

Hello (and goodnight, with cocoa and Pedro in hand) to everyone else.
