To carry on the complaining and to drown Liney.

I've opened it in AIBU to piss off Trills etc and to see if mnhq leave it here

Poor Liney.

I will send you virtual grapes and Take A Break Magazines while you recover.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:17

Peace and love to everyone

That's what Olivia named her twins.*

There was a Take a Break style magazine in the hospital waiting room today.

It's a strange read, on the whole.

Anyone knows how to get rid of a spot? I have a throbbing, red, shiny one on my cheek. Freederm has given up in despair.

But thank god for small mercies. If it was a couple of inches to the right, I would have been fucking Rudolph.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:19

Sorry Maryz. We do know how lucky we are really. My SIL and her family are trying to get here from Montreal today but there is all sorts of nasty weather in the NE right now - snow, freezing rain etc.

LineRunner · 23/12/2013 18:20

Toothpaste.

Amrapaali · 23/12/2013 18:21

No wait, that didn't sound right.

If it was a couple of inches to the right, I would have been Rudolph the fucking Reindeer.

Yep, better. I am not bestial. Xmas Blush

Amrapaali · 23/12/2013 18:22

Really, Liney? I was hoping for something along the lines of vodka. You know what they say, alcohol can dry it out?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:23

I actually bought a Take A Break for the plane ride for the puzzles obv

DD1 got her hands on it. "This is a really good magazine Mum" Blush

Tracy leaving Brian for Kevin, but her sister Vicki gave all her money to a Turkish bloke she met on holiday and their daughter Chardonnay needed an operation a week before Christmas.

GodRestTEEMerryGenTEEmen · 23/12/2013 18:24

I agree with Liney. Toothpaste.

Sorry. You could drink some vodka though. Then you wouldn't care.

I would like to state, for the record, that Tescos party pack nibbles are better than M&S.

We may have them again next week, we enjoyed them so much.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:24

Arf @ Amrapaali getting down n dirty with Rudolph

HaroldTheGoat · 23/12/2013 18:24

Enjoy your date rollo. You should update the crew on the childminding thread they would love that one too.

I mean really you should be at home setting up the maths area for tomorrow.

TheBigJessie · 23/12/2013 18:25

I just squeeze. But this is because I am
A) impatient, and;
B) have sensory issues that mean I cannot stand the way the poor over-stretched skin feels above the pressure of pus.

Ah! The relief when it's gone!

Amrapaali · 23/12/2013 18:25

What was the operation for? Taking the bazookas down to a D cup?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:26

You could start a thread with the puss KLAXON and ask advice from all the sporners... They will require you to take photos though.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:27

Yes and a nose job

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/12/2013 18:28

Have to go wrap presents now. Ugh.

GodRestTEEMerryGenTEEmen · 23/12/2013 18:29

I need to do that too, Hearts.

After The Boy is in bed and I have a glass of Wine.

NotTwit · 23/12/2013 18:29

I agree with toothpaste, it is also good for stings. < nods sagely>

Amrapaali · 23/12/2013 18:32

That's exactly what I was hoping for, Tee. Any excuse to crack open a second bottle. Xmas Grin

PacificDingbat · 23/12/2013 18:41

"fucking Rudolph" - that's just a Step Too Far

DH has been wrapping some presents, no doubt his as all; the ones for him I mean. I've known the man for 18 years and I have once given him a gift he didn't guess beforehand. And I like giving surprise presents Xmas Sad.

He also made Ham Hock Soup which will feed the 5000.
Anybody fancy coming for dinner to ours tonight?

PacificDingbat · 23/12/2013 18:42

According to my father, The Man Who Knows Everything About Everything, you need to put aftershave on spots.

SmiteYouWithThunderbolts · 23/12/2013 18:44

FNAR at 'rinsing the mince'. Still sounds like a euphemism to me.

PacificDingbat · 23/12/2013 18:45

Euphemism for what?? Hm?
You dirty, dirty Smite, you
