The OFFICIAL buddy bench/naughty bench thread No. 2

[teaandcakeplease]

Come hither all those who haven't 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 the Gazebo and sit on the bench, will have their sins erased and be given a warm welcome and cheerful chat from ApocalypseCheese, CheerfulYank, Anyfucker, HairExtensions, 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 !

I got lost on the way to the bench

ladies how are you, still been crazy here?

did i miss anything?

and yes i missed all of ya

Helllooooo Tiredmum, I'm ok, how's you? Where have you been that's better than the old buddy bench?

Watcha tea, sorry to say there is one thing more important, my family

they are running me ragged, dunno what i am gonna do over the hols, i will be havin a breakdown by the end

I suppose I should be grateful that my two between them slept the day away really, it was almost only one awake at a time at certain points today! Busy time recently, so they were catching up today. In between it was Disney videos or playing with toys.

Good day

They are some good things for hols, are your old enough for these clubs and day arranged by surestart centres? I cannot remember their ages anymore

Lol yeah i will check if there is anything on actually. ta for reminding me.

i just hope they behave, or i can just dream bout them being angels for at least a day

when they are good, they are really good. when they are bad they are awful

LOL Cheerful! I do that to my DH, he is easy to read though. DS requested an octopus....a 3 dimensional octopus that could stand up. OMG. I did it, but secretly was just a little bit upset that we had to cut it!

Welcome back Tiredmum! You were missed!

Sounds like a nice, much deserved relax day Tea!

Yes tea, sounds lovely! I used to be very anti-TV before I had DS and now I'm slightly ashamed at the number of DVDs he watches. But whatever, good enough is good enough isn't it? And it's sooooo nice when they sleep! I'm of your relaxed day!

Mine is the same tiredmum, great when he's good, and supremely naughty when he's naughty.

Am impressed with your octopus gomummy! It must have been adorable. My castle was cute in a garish, homemade, looks-like-a-cooking-class-project-made-by-9-year-olds kind of way, but it just was not the architectural wonder I'd envisioned!

Oh great now the stress starts lol

yes its the holidays

and we are already bored haha

None of mine are in proper school and DD only did 2 mornings a week pre school so not much difference for me

Went to a gorgeous park in Bushey today with huge sandpit and paddling pool and fountains and took a picnic. Twas fab.

Would like to take the DCs to a beach one day this Summer if it's hot enough though.

My two have been on holidays since June 30Th & are already driving me mad lol. DD starts primary school in September & today we took her to get fitted for her uniform .......... couldn't help but well up She looked all grown up .

That sounds lovely tea, i was racking my brains, about where in bushey and i still cant think lol.

but it does sound lovely.

elmo i was the same with ds1 and i will be the same with ds2, he finished nursery today, so he also needs a uniform for sept, but he is the youngest in the class so is a bit smaller, heres hoping the uniform fits

There are car parks off coldharbour lane and Chiltern Avenue. It's quite central to Bushey

It's called King George's recreation ground. Forgot that part Oops

Oh now i know where you are talking about, its lovely there anyway, do you often go there? wish i could but i dont drive so its impossible

i used to love going to the lakes in stevenage when i was little, it had 3 paddling pools, not sure if its all still there now though.

Awww we could've arranged to meet and let our kids splash about whilst we gossiped. Could've brought picnics

Go there quite a bit right now, as it's free and lovely.

Got the car just need the licence

that would have been lovely though, and you do know that i will hold you to that when i start driving lol

Sure, but when are you going to take take (or retake) your test?

room for me tonight?

Havent got a clue lol it always seems to get pushed to the side, and now its the holidays things will be busier.

but i really would love to drive, might make life easier

Good morning

Tiredmummy lol I had to get DD's uniform dress age 3-4yrs She will be 5yrs old on new years eve . She's TINY

Oh thats good to know elmo, i couldnt remember if they did them that small lol, i may get that all sorted in a couple weeks, otherwise there will be nowt left.
