YABU

It's 10 sleeps."
I knew someone would pick up on this. The DC are at granny's tonight, so from a totally bedding point of view, it's only 9. And I was in a total bedding zone, I promise.

Ha just been to turn the TV off and it was no doubt singng "Don't Sleep"
Good advice I feel :o

I don't even have kids but I still have a Sleeps till Christmas App that plays a jaunty tune

Thanks Lizzie, you are the only one sticking up for me! Do 7 years of hard service on here count for nuffink?

Do you change the bedding every day?

I think we have more to castigate you over than the use of 'sleeps'.

see now YABU, because you missed my post.

I said I link arms with you. but you seem to not give a shit.
fine then. whatevs

no no, was trying to decide if I needed to change it before Christmas Eve. I have come up with the cunning plan that I will not change it, but on Friday DH will change the pillowcases. Then clean bedding on the 24th

Zing, your post was too highbrow and too intellectual for me. I just saw the "not even sorry" and assumed you had castigated me using a method I didn't even understand. Please accept my humble apologies and gratitude for your spport.

aww bloody hell the song is "don't speak"

That's ok then.

Everyone is allowed one slip up, surely? I've reported her btw everyone

I once heard myself say aloud - "Oooh, that looks like a comfy fleece"

FFS.

I'm upset by this information. Given that I did start my Christmas shopping in August and you're reducing me to panic, I think we can safely say you're bang out of order publicising this to all and sundry!

I may report.

But is it one slip, Jolly? I've requested mumsnet conduct a full audit of her posts and requested the police in her town check all cctv footage over the last year for any other incidences.

Actually, I've just found a present for FIL in the drawer and I think I might have got it in May, or possibly I bought it earlier than that for last Christmas. I'm fairly certain it was this summer, but not quite sure...

I'm happy again

do you know which episode in Friends I was referring to?
it's the one where the running theme is that Joey doesn't share food, yet at the end it turns out that not only he has double standards, but also has no shame.
his face after eating that is priceless!

That'll learn ya.

Christ. It is like you have been shopping in Asda.

Billy

and Santa doesn't exists

I know Stealth, and after all you've done during the last 7 years. You give, and you give, and you give, and one tiny slip up and you're out. You know what I think? You're just ahead of your time. One day they'll understand.

Zing, I do know the one but I don't remember the ending. DH and I have said we won't watch Friends again until the DC can watch with us (probably about 4 years) so that it seems new again :o
Thanks Lizzie. You're right, I am just a visionary.
property, I do shop in Asda and the only reason I don't shop more often in Asda is that there isn't really a food one near us :o
Well, got to go...I have a phone call from MNHQ and they are advising I contact a lawyer. Can anyone recommend a cheap good one?

Sorry, I posted that, fled and went to bed. Oooh, a poem!

HA! At norTEE.

I am so using that!

We are not only counting sleeps to Santa Clause, we are counting sleeps until Granny and Grandad arrive.

2 for them.
9 for Santa.

Lizzie

We were counting sleeps to dds birthday earlier. I've only had 5 hours of sleeps so I don't care if you banish me as long as it's to a bed.
