Looking at the menu now HotCross and finding it very difficult to control my excitement Blush I must know what makes a tomato side salad worth a fiver!

BadlyWrittenPoem · 25/09/2013 16:21

We nearly bought an ex council house that has previously been two flats Lyra. (Only didn't because of the area/lack of garden.) It was amazing for storage space!

FoxMulder · 25/09/2013 16:23

Jol I have a black one. It says 'Nokia' on it. You can use it to call AND text. Oh yes. It was £10 about 10 years ago.

I googled that Gaucho place. It looks well flash! I wanna go for a fancy dinner! I've not been to an actual restaurant (as opposed to a pub/café) for many-a-year.

Hottie - It's nice to think I make you smile. Smile. People seem to think I'm either funny or weird, and I'm not sure why but I'll go with it.

LyraSilvertongue · 25/09/2013 16:27

Fox, I insist that you get a smartphone. Yours just will not do Wink

Jolls, I love Gauchos but haven't been since splitting with the ex as he was the one with all the money. I do miss fancy restaurants. Nobu is my all-time favourite.

Only a few more posts till thread number 10!

karamcleod · 25/09/2013 16:30

Lot need to seriously shut the fuck up about food. OH is being all whiney and dickish about me eating too much crap. 'Cause it's his baby too'. Celery sticks for tea tonight! :(
Still craving a fucking fag after almost 4 shitty weeks.
Not in a good mood today.

FoxMulder · 25/09/2013 16:31

I'm tempted Lyra but I can't quite work out why I need one?

Jolleigh · 25/09/2013 16:31

In which case Fox I shall share my regime with you and we can strengthen our pelvic floor together Wink

I'm currently doing the beginner programme. It tells me that 4 times a day I must do the following: clench my kegals so that the clenching takes about 1.5 seconds, release immediately but the release should also take this long. Repeat 10 times consecutively.

When we can do that smoothly, we shall see what the next programme holds! Grin

Jolleigh · 25/09/2013 16:32

kara - tell your OH to shove it up his arse. Wink

rescoonetwothree · 25/09/2013 16:33

Kara, get some nicotine gum to take the edge off it.

Fox, once you get one you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. Mine does everything. It's my phone, camera, computer, diary, Walkman, map of the world, satnav, library and source of every bit of information I could ever need. All in one handy package.

commsgirl · 25/09/2013 16:46

I'm a bit worried about eating rare steak but after all the steak chat I'm dying for one! I refuse to eat steak any other way so was just planning on avoiding it.

karamcleod · 25/09/2013 16:47

Gum's no good anything with nicotine in, makes me need a fag. I got given nicotine spray about 2 months ago and it was so bad I had to smoke almost a whole pack of cigs to make me feel better.

lumpylumps · 25/09/2013 16:50

pram the house looks fab. Love the decking. You've got me wanting fairy lights now!!

Thanks for the saggy link.

Who asked about ribs?? Their own, not the edible ones. I get pain in them too. It's called rib flare and is the ribs expanding. Why does pregnancy have to affect everything?? Why can't it just be your belly?!B

FoxMulder · 25/09/2013 16:55

Thanks Jol I will make an effort to do that. DH can spot when I'm doing them as apparently I 'make a face'. I hope my colleagues can't spot it too!

But Lyra I have a phone and a camera and a computer and a diary and a library (nearby). I don't have a Walkman, but my car has a radio. I would like the satnav, I'll give you that. I would have LOVED all this if it was around when I was a teenager. I had one of the first MP3 players when I was about 14. It held 2 songs Grin.

comms I have been reliably informed that if the steak is of good quality it should still be tender and juicy when well done.

FoxMulder · 25/09/2013 16:56

Fuckin eh, lumpey (i.e. I wholeheartedly agree with you)

OK, hometime now! Bye!

karamcleod · 25/09/2013 17:04

Fox are you dundonian? EH? I HATE THAT!!
That's another of my fears, living so close to dundee our bubba might pick up a dundee accent!! :(
I'm currently hiding in my wardrobe eating a pack of Lotus Carmelised biscuits. Bliss :)

LyraSilvertongue · 25/09/2013 17:09

But Fox, you'd need a suitcase to lug that lot around. A smartphone takes up the space of a chocolate bar in your bag or pocket. Really, go and get one. I insist. I'll even find you a good deal.

BadlyWrittenPoem · 25/09/2013 17:16

Yay someone has a phone older than mine!

Prambo · 25/09/2013 17:57

What the frig is Gaucho?

I've just paused Part 1 of this hippy family. I'm only four minutes in and they're already pissing me off. I don't like her and I want to take a pair of scissors to the whole family's hairdos. Swamp-donkeys, the lot of 'em..

Prambo · 25/09/2013 18:00

The little girl is called Tree Hmm Why would you put your children through this? Doesn't it upset them greatly to watch their mother grunting gutterally and howling as though she is possessed?

OwlinaTree · 25/09/2013 18:04

Thanks pram. baldrick I thought is must be a boy as I'm sure I remember my little girl's being round 160.

I really don't mind, I just enjoy the guessing!

Prambo · 25/09/2013 18:06

Hottie, as your friend, I can not let you do this. I can't let you descent into madness in this way. Get thee to hospital for drugs and bed-pans and clothed people who can help Sad

Prambo · 25/09/2013 18:07

*descend

Prambo · 25/09/2013 18:15

...her son is called Horse!!!!

There is shit everywhere!!!

Prambo · 25/09/2013 18:18

Awww! her joy is just beautiful to behold

Get them fuckin' kids to the barbers!!
