...........I cannot keep up.

active convos are whizzing ppast so quickly I am missing if someone comes on a thread I have started/replied on until ages after, and then I fear people think I am being rude if I don;t reply/respond.

MN is fab, really it is, but when I come here for some light relief/downtime/soothing-like-minded-chat, I want to feel as tho I am contributing to it, or even > being acknowledged as a decent member.

and on a friday, it all moves so damn fast, it feels as tho I am swimming (well, fighting more like) against the current.

It was dead easy EachPeach! I've never done it before either...500g strawberries, 300ml double cream, 100g caster sugar, juice of a lemon.

Whizz it all together, pour into the machine and let it do it's thing for half an hour- it's brilliant, but I may never be slim again

Oh Id kill for some wine... the one downside to be pregnant.

She's just texted and is leaving work now, has to walk dog so won't be here til 8.30 (which means 9.00 IME). So I have cracked open the wine. Cheers!

Fantastic! I've got to get one, my boys will love me!... was it expensive?

BitOfFun · 22/05/2009 19:43

I've no idea about the price I'm afraid- dd's dad sent it from Amazon last week (he lives in Oz and is a bit of a foodie), so it was a freebie!

BitOfFun · 22/05/2009 19:48

Oh noooooooooo!

Dd has poohed in the bath while I've been wittering on my iPhone...chocolate chip was going to be my next flavour- I'll skip it now

BitOfFun · 22/05/2009 19:58

OP posts:
TrillianAstra · 22/05/2009 20:00

Pfft, now you're just being difficult, you can have bush fruits or vine fruits.

Mmm, lovely drinks made of vine fruits..

psychomum5 · 22/05/2009 20:03

oh yeah, bish fruits are fab.

OP posts:
psychomum5 · 22/05/2009 20:03

and the last post now makes no sense, ensuring I sound ever-more insane and potty!!

OP posts:
TrillianAstra · 22/05/2009 20:04

How much wine have you had? Tis only 8

RustyBear · 22/05/2009 20:04

I just thought I'd try & see if I could hide more than one thread by holding down Ctrl & clicking on a few random threads.

It doesn't work, it only hid the first one - which ironically was this one, so I had to go and retrieve it so I could post....

(Actually I've had to do that quite a lot recently, MNing on my iPhone early in the morning when I can't be arsed to get up & find my glasses - it's too easy to touch 'hide' instead of the thread name in Active convos.)

psychomum5 · 22/05/2009 20:04

erm.............

one bottle

OP posts:
BitOfFun · 22/05/2009 20:06

I do that all the time too!

TrillianAstra · 22/05/2009 20:07

It would be good, the reason I don't hide more is cos the whole page insists on reloading every time I do.

One bottle not so bad, I have tried to MNed after more. It was very bad.

BitOfFun · 22/05/2009 20:07

Hiding stuff accidentally I mean...not MNing while in bed. Ever. No siree

RustyBear · 22/05/2009 20:22

Oh, so you weren't actually in bed on that notorious occasion then, BoF?
