Come hither all those who havent found their place on mumsnet, have scrapped in Aibu or crossed words in chat. The buddy bench shalt not judge.

The buddy bench will hand out wine and cakes, it will join you on your scoffathons getting pissed

All those who enter will have their sins erased and be given a warm welcome and cheerful chat from me, fucker, hairy, gomummy, tired mum and far, far too many more to mention.

Welcome to the buddy bench, we look forward to meeting you all

Oh and don't forget, last one to leave polishes bench and locks up !

gomummygo · 29/05/2010 23:25

I'm thinking maybe you are all gone for the night? Have just finished some insanely hot chicken tenders (no excuse for eye-watering heat, they were homemade!) and now off in search of a tongue-cooling beverage! Will return later to polish the bench and set out some fresh flowers for the morning...Night all if I have missed you! Chat tomoz...

Evening ladies,
just supping my wine.
Feeling proud of myself for making a recipe from the Rachel allen book this evening.
Mind you it was only a sauce to pour on drumsticks and rice.
But was a domestic goddess for a little while.
ah! baby awake NOOOO

gomummygo · 29/05/2010 23:35

Hey Wutker, hope baby goes back down easily. Well done on the domesticity!

wukter · 29/05/2010 23:53

She's down! Before i even got up the stairs she settled back.
She does this wail every so often, as though she is having a bad dream but she settles again. Somehow don't trust her tonight to sleep through (she's 11 months)
How are you keeping gomummygo, you said upthread you were a bit stressed with all the rushing around.

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 01:45

Wow Wutker that was great that she went back down so quickly. DS used to do something similar to that; I would think he was up and by the time I got halfway up the stairs he'd be asleep again. Always wondered if it was a nightmare. Usually had a fitful night whenever that happened though, or at least an unsettled one.

Not bad here, busy birthday weekend, DH is enjoying himself though so that's the main thing. Tis his birthday after all.

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 13:17

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 18:03

Hey Cheeky, busy weekend here too! Going to need another weekend to rest from the weekend, lol! What was yours filled with?

Tiredmumno1 · 30/05/2010 20:39

wukter · 30/05/2010 21:29

I had my mum and her new boooyfrieeend round today. He seems a nice man She's like a teenager at the mo - new spring in her step.

AnyFucker · 30/05/2010 21:42

evening lovelies x

Hope everyone is OK.

I feel a bit of a fraud to jump on and off the bench so rarely, but kinda busy

Keep my place warm x

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 21:53

Evening all, welcome back!

Wukter, my mum is in the same boat (though she doesn't know what to call him and when I called him her boyfriend she blushed!) . Seems ok, nice to finally see her happy. Did you like your mum's new man?

Tiredmumno1 · 30/05/2010 22:03

aww lol wukter thats really sweet. bless her, as long as she is happy

alwight fucker, hows you. dont worry bout your sit, it safe, sound and warm

wukter · 30/05/2010 22:04

I did like him, gomummygo, though I've only met him twice so haven't got the measure of him yet IYSWIM. But if she's happy i'm happy, I expect you are the same.
How was DH's birthday, hope he enjoyed it and you are managing a bit of a rest this evening.

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 22:58

Know exactly what you mean; I don't have a real read on my mum's man yet, but yes am happy as she appears to be.

DH's birthday was good, he enjoyed it. We are all exhausted so will have an early night tonight!

funnysinthegarden · 30/05/2010 23:01

can I join too, or is it too late. I keep getting threads and messages deleted and mostly I am only joking..........

Tiredmumno1 · 30/05/2010 23:05

funny all is welcome, cant say have ever seen any threads from you, but surely its not that bad.

would ya like a drink or cake?

whatcha up to tomoz gomummy?

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 23:11

Welcome Funny!

Tomorrow not so exciting tiredmum, off to town with DS for errands and groceries and all that good stuff. Biggest priority, however, is replacing a toy that I accidentally ran over today (was left under my 4x4)! What are your plans Tiredmum?

funnysinthegarden · 30/05/2010 23:12

oh yes, glass of red? I haven't been posting for long. Have lurked for years and only been posting in earnest for a week. Still managed to get 1 thread deleted and 1 message deleted. Prob small fry compared to some, but still feel slightly sheepish. The joke about gypsies did NOT go down well......

gomummygo · 30/05/2010 23:15

No need to feel sheepish here Funny!

funnysinthegarden · 30/05/2010 23:16

thanks and cheers....
