Avast Behind! Full of salty seamen and buxom lasses, the Gin Palais is heading off in search of Pirate Booty! For those brave BESHly wenches in their 30’s, TTC since the Black Death.

[BarbiesBeaver]

Ahoy Gin Hags, behold the Hendrick?s Palais, the finest sea goin? vessel that ever left these God forsaken shores. Packed with comely wenches and salty seamen, I be lookin? for a BESHly crew to travel the seas in search of booty. Land lubbers lackin? a twisted disposition need not apply.

Let me shiver yer minges with tales of the fearsome Droid Monster, who raises his bloody head each month, and the dreaded 2WOOFL, where the vaguest signs can be espied from the top o? the Crow?s Nest.

Get ye to the Brig, yer scurvy dogs, where Roger the Cabin Boy will see to yer needs, or apply the Cat O? Nine tails to yer britches if ye should mutter the oaths of Babydust.

Drink up me hearties, yo ho(es).

Can the people I have messaged answer because I feel unpopular and unloved and altogether hormonal .

Pssst, I am not really hear as I am terribly busy doing boring household stuff, but felt compelled to say...

Bollocks to the bastard droid Occs HB and Rie.

Lozza your poor bruv - hope he is on the mend soonest. How scary for your family. I am quietly excited and menkulling on your behalf and will be logging on first thing tomorrow.

Will light a BESH candle tonight for the droided (next month WILL be your month) and also for RedLorryYellowLorry.

You didn't message me

Bastard arsewipes to the amount of droid action on here this week. Good job we've had rockets news to keep us jolly.

My droid is calming down today but it's been hell for a few days, I felt like I'd been kicked round a football pitch several times over just to add to the shiteness of it all.

Rie that is all.

You could try a foot

:)

Harumph... Rie didn't message me either.

I see I'M unloved too Scorpy like msgs, waaaah!

God I can't message everyone

Any suggestions of what to cook this eve? Remember He is a tossing vegetarian.

Bitch.

Headonnaplate.

Jacket potato with a candle stuck on top. Should he mention the lack of "glitz" - growl from your corner and wave your bottle in a menacing manner.

Oooh la la I just got an Aries message. She lubs me.

Good plan. I will crash it down in front of him and stare in a challenging manner.

Actually I might, just to see the expression on his face and then take him dahn the pub for grub.

Skidoodly meant to say this yesterday, but then the weirdness happened and I forgot, that I loved the early baby months, then I found 9-18 months hard, but am loving the terrible twos, which aren't terrible at all but in fact lovely. Just wanted to give you heart as everyone bemoans toddlerhood but I also love it, as Whenisit I think it was also said.

Fuck the birthday candle - make it a tealight. haha yes, do it - then take him out somewhere nice. :)

I got jailbait a Scotland rugby top at enormous expense for his birthday. First time through the washing machien the lettering came off. :( Sent it back and got a refund and am taking him to a theme park on Tuesday instead.

Eat or sleep, people?

Ah, fuckit. Eat in bed. Two birds, one pain au chocolat

Cass I don't know if he will prove difficult - but it's a taboo I think, when you say that it's a piece of piss having a baby. People don't want to hear that - and it's not something you're "supposed" to say. :( So I try and be self-deprecating by saying it'll get worse. But who knows? He'll be so bloody busy with his Shetland pony he won't have the energy to be a little git to me!

Ski it's good to know that for some people babies are easy. Personally I'm convinced if I ever get there I'll struggle with the early months, and that's partly I think a way of preparing myself for the worst so hopefully it will be better than I expect. So I like to hear the range of people's experiences, to know it's not the same for everyone. For me it only becomes a problem if it's said in a way that suggests one person's experience will be the same as everyone else's, and I've not heard you say it like that.

Have you bought Bear a weeny baby Scotland rugby top yet ski? I think it's so cute, but some see it as too naff for words. Sis has bought AriesNeph a Wales one and it made me want to eat him up - nomnomnom. Here's a question to mums of older babies - when do they stop smelling so gorgeous? Pretty much all I could do for the first hour of meeting him last weekend was sniff his head. And what is that smell? Is it milk and silky baby hair?
