I pop on, stroll down active, and don't know any of the names Shock

It won't do.

Where are all the people I know?

Have they been culled?

Moldies XII?

I'm only here cos DS2 chose it. If I had suggested it then there would have been arguments and rancour.
Ds2 sees a picture, points and dh books bloody flights.

I am taking him through all sorts of travel guides ATM. Just for future reference. Not to wangle holidays I want, oh no.

MarmaladeTwatkins · 27/03/2013 11:55

Don't get her on this thread, Hulls. I can't take it today.

The Daily Fail say that we are set to freeze until END OF APRIL. I am seriously thinking about maxing out the credit card and booky holiday to somewhere hot and forrin but still does egg 'n' chips.

BrainSurgeon · 27/03/2013 11:56

All legal (I think) Pag only because bacon wouldn't last

MarmaladeTwatkins · 27/03/2013 11:57

WTF sort of DS2 do you have, Pagz? If I let DS pick a holiday, we'd be in Blackpool with a sandwich bag full of pennies for the slot arcade, with candy floss for dinner every night :(

Pagwatch · 27/03/2013 11:58

Noooooo. It has to get warmer soon!

If its still cold when I get back I will cry again.

BrainSurgeon · 27/03/2013 11:58

Come and see me in Doha Bups. Free accommodation, swimming pool, leisure club and all that. Just nip on a plane! Grin

MarmaladeTwatkins · 27/03/2013 12:00

I'm coming, Brain!

Pagwatch · 27/03/2013 12:02

I have no idea MT. It came right out of no where. We got a brochure delivered, he took it off and then came back insistent for 'house in ver water'.
That was it. DH was a blur of lap top and cries of 'yes, fuck it. Let's go there'.
Next year it will be blackpool and dh will be screwed because DS thinks its his choice now.

I want your DS and DH Envy

My DH would laugh me out of the house if I suggested we fly further than Greece :(

BrainSurgeon · 27/03/2013 12:05

I do mean it, Bups. I think your DS and mine are similar age aren't they? They'd have a blast!
not sure about the stuffed donkey though

Pagwatch · 27/03/2013 12:06

Are summers in Ireland the reason my mum used to use baby oil as suntan lotion Maryz?

BrainSurgeon · 27/03/2013 12:06

Ok Maryz you can come too Grin

MarmaladeTwatkins · 27/03/2013 12:09

Mine is 6 in May, Brain!

I'm up for it if Mary is. Grin

I'd be very happy to host. There are at least a couple of other MNers already there.
Oh and there is a site here called Doha Mums, sort of like NMMN, perhaps we can pay them a visit Grin

Pagwatch · 27/03/2013 12:19

It was very odd - baby oil and vinegar I think. Or was that Jack and Jill?

She used to keep trying to coat me in and make me lie in the sun like a skinny basted turkey.

BrainSurgeon · 27/03/2013 12:19

Bloody strikeout fail!

MarmaladeTwatkins · 27/03/2013 12:28

Did she wrap you in newspaper after basting you, Pag?

Well that was weird

In some crazy Mnet meets real life. Hullygully has just been fondled by Roger in exchange for a hotdog.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 27/03/2013 12:54

I see.

You wait until I am off doing some actual work and plan a flipping mumsnet holiday without me.

That's fine. Don't worry about me, buried under 3ft of paperwork, eleven million emails and a whole load of incompetent arse work colleagues.

Off you go. Send me a postcard won't you?

EggsitPursuedByAChocolateBunny · 27/03/2013 13:02

Very Envy of you Pag.

I am having to lug water to the stables every day (In the Peak District Funnys) and dig out the poor mare twice a day.

And my fingers are now gnarled and swollen.

I have been compelled to post in AIBU. It involves spelling, and facebook. I'm going to die aren't I?
