Come along, we haven't got all day. Pop off your blazers and straw boaters for a mo and listen up. As Head Girl, I think you ought to know that my dear chum Darrell Rivers tells me that we're really letting the side down with our lack of baybee-winning. To that end, instead of prep and lacrosse, we'll be TTC. I know some of us are losing hope that we'll ever win the Motherhood Cup for our house, but chins up and think of England! We don't won't to end up like the bitter, childless, dried-up old spinsters running this place, do w... oh, hello Matron! Yes, yes, we're going now...

Super! We've been given the attic dorm - bagsy the bed by the window, what! We won't be disturbed when we're enjoying midnight feasts, unbridled lesbianism, pillow fights and sneaking in fellows from the nearby boy's school for some ghastly dreadfulness.

So let's pop some Joyce Grenfell on the gramophone and crack open the tuck boxes! Mater's made me a huge ginger cake and oooh, I see someone's brought pontefract cakes! Yummo! Humbugs, sherbet, elderflower fizz, eccles cakes, a whole slab of choccy - what a simply smashing haul! Hmmm, this ginger beer smells suspiciously gin-like...

Oh yes

Just running in to deliver a mahooosive smooch to scorps, to announce I am another Alicia but I don't really remember any of them anyway, and to agree with rierie that picking on skinnies is fucking shit.

I was called a skinny runt by an evil bitch of a customer once when I worked in a clothes shop, and have had stuff about my size all my life. Know wotchoo mean about people acting like you're doing it to spite 'em scorps. am not so thin now but as old timee beshies know a few weeks after my last mc I had someone announcing to me that the reason I couldn't get pg was cos I was too thin. Despite the fact I hadn't actually said that I had probs getting pg, or anything at all, other than admitting that yes, we were hoping for another child....

What was the other thing I needed to say?

Oh YES. Heart you all muchly xxxx

Speaking as someone erring on the plump side, I can state for DEFINITE CERTAIN that women only comment on the bodies of slim women out of sheer envy and bitchiness. No other motivating factor. Women are perfectly lovely about my figure because they ain't jealous of it, see Grin? Only twice have women sniped at my appearance and on both occasions I was at my slimmest and rocking a tight red jersey dress and whore heels. Cue snide remarks. If I gain weight the bingo, I'm no threat, and all is sweetness and light.

Not sure why I'm saying this other than to point out that the beehotches that bitched at Rie and Gin were motived by envy, nowt else. You had of course figured that out, but since when did "stating the fucking obvious" ever shut me up? Grin

saltyair · 01/09/2010 20:48

pssst...lady who was mean to Rie is back on..

HB dear. how are you? Would you like to do some violence on me? I need it to shake the 2Woofls away..

Evening Hags has taken me ages to catch up so sorry if i miss something and if most of this makes no sense cos i am replying to something posted 12 hrs ago.

Nice one lozzer sure I will come out with some BESHisms while I am there. I will have a think and try to share (think mine is just going to be wailing 'why haven't i won a baybeeeeee? over and over again) I would absolutely go for home birth if it was an option, however i think it might freak the boy out a little. I am defo going to look into it if its ever necessary. Sis wanted one but both hers were breach (she has a freakishly long body and i reckon it was too comfy in there) so had to have ELCMs.

mrsFertilityClinic (can't we just come to you for all our artidiffs?) New clothes you say? Now thats a strategy I can get behind. :D

oi muser stop trying to steal our new friend!!! kidding we can share

saltyair · 01/09/2010 20:54

Ahem.

Salad good evening dear.

Saladbomb · 01/09/2010 20:54

sorry for not proofing properly, was making and eating tea, trying to read/type and fending of the mogster. (is not because I am hopelessly illiterate)

Saladbomb · 01/09/2010 20:56

saltyair · 01/09/2010 20:56

AHEM

Good evening salad

saltyair · 01/09/2010 20:58

Am back on. Will hurry over.

PS what's all this coughing about, salts? In the immortal words of Minerva McGonagall, would you like a cough drop?

saltyair · 01/09/2010 21:12

Bwa-ha-ha-haaa...Scorps dear, you do seem to have replied on other thread, don't you...

saltyair · 01/09/2010 21:14

is 'cough drop' a euphemism?

Ariesgirl · 01/09/2010 21:20

Salty I think I love you!

Cough drop isn't euphemism for anything as far as I'm aware though. There was a bit of throat clearing going on, and I didn't know what for. Because, as hmc thinks, I am a Dullard! And you're clearly a Madwoman. We will wait to hear her pronouncement on Scorps.

saltyair · 01/09/2010 21:23

I was just attracting *salad's attention.

I am off now to eat delish food cooked by Mr S.

See you tomoz, gels.

Scorpette · 01/09/2010 21:35

I think 'can I play with your squid' is definitely an euphemism, even if cough drop isn't. Wink

Is it 'an'? It has to be surely, and yet it looks wrong. Waaaah, babyfail has broken my pedantry! Look at what I've become!

Only qualified squid minders and mentalists can play with Luella. And you must include Clothilda. Her smell becomes less choking after a while.

Awwww, this news item is heartbreaking www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-11156963 I'm no fan of William Hague but my heart goes out to him and Ffion. TYF just came in to show it me; he hates the Tories but he had a lump in his throat cos of it. Imagine having to live out BESH hell in the media spotlight, getting older and older, suffering anguish after anguish and all the tabloids making it worse and worse... Sad Sad Sad

OP posts:
Ariesgirl · 01/09/2010 21:44

I know, I heard that on the news. I actually quite like William Hague - I think he's clever and witty. The media in this country is quite poisonous, it really is. It should be muzzled. Oh wait, that's fascism. But honestly!

Scorpette · 01/09/2010 21:45

Ah yes, you're right about the eu = a, not an. I knew it was an but had a braindrain moment Blush I yelled 'AAAARGH, you twat!' at the screen as soon as I posted it!

OP posts:
Ariesgirl · 01/09/2010 21:46

At me ?

Grin Not really.

We keep crossing, Scropey.
