AIBU - Books part 2

[theyoungvisiter]

as you were ladies.

I got it?

Does he live in Earthsea? (wild stab)

Not an uncle but he has got something in common with cats. Off to look at 15.55.

recap MrsF? Am awaiting Celebratory Indian (first takeway this year!, we are so credit crunch chic here!)

CHRESTOMANCI Moomin

I work for a lovely woman, but I've got a real problem with her DH. He keeps coming on to me even though I'm engaged to be married. He used to be a real player, but promised he'd reform when he married his DW.

I told my DF what he's up to and he's furious! He's plotting all kinds of revenge. AIBU to go along with it?

theyoungvisiter can finish off ALL the Easter eggs.

Stumped by 15.55 - could be too grown up for me.

Am eating burnt dinner, trying not to spill on laptop.

PS Moomin, I didn't see your OP so not sure which book but am guessing it's Charmed Life?

Sorry, only just coming back to this since lunchtime and I am not wading through all the backlog

I just wanted to live a little. I got married too young to a widower with small children. I just had to get away. The Big City is full of wild, groovy hep cats, but somehow I feel so lonely. My neighbour downstairs is nice to me though. SOmetimes I feel like my only friends are him and the cat. Despite my bubbly and glitzy lifestyle. What should I do?

TYV I trust you have arrived with renewed energy to give us a kick up the arse.

And it was Charmed Life.

I would go to breakfast somewhere Salome, perhaps a well-known local jewellers?

Could you just go back to my 20:51 post and advise me how to act. There is a dark blur on the horizon, could be some sort of island. I feel a little apprehensive but surely with my new protector I should be just fine?

No, CJC, unfortuantely I have returned a shell of my former self, a useless, hollowed-out gourd, sucked dry of life by my parasitic children.

So MN will be a nice break

TYV, mwah!

Indian Takeaway? Credit Crunch Chic? Blardy LUXURY madam!

My lot had hot dogs.

DH just pondered whether the other diehard contributers to this thread live like us, i.e. surrounded by mountains of book. He pointed out that we have dustballs "the size of small sheep" everywhere.

Now, how can I dust if it means moving the books eh? Just answer me that!

Salome, I think you need some Breakfast at Tiffany's.
And don't dump the cat this time.

I had a cull when we moved. thousand books went! I just had to face the fact I was never ever going to read some of that stuff again (especially the french stuff as cant read in French anymore).

I do it once every few years.

But I do have a one in one out policy for police procedurals and anything with pink on the cover.

Did anyone put salome out of her misery wrt the bed with wheels and the monkey puzzle tree?

How about this (hope it hasn't already been done):

AIBU to want to spend my inheritance on building an ice-cream parlour in the middle of the outback?

MrsF, the critical point is that is just for me! everyone else gets wholesome nourishment based on seasonal, well balanced food (think pasta and soup)

oooo, I'm stumped Cory.

It's not a treasure island by any chance is it?

Bah, I need to refuel. TYV is fresh out of the blocks.

I could squeeze in three more children if we got rid of the books.

Sounds like a fab idea. After all you've been through, a knickerbocker glory and a nice aussie would be just what you deserve. God I loved that book!

Jellycat, YANBU provided you intend to marry a stockman who was crucified for you
