Glittering seductively in the evening sun, crewed by swarthy slaves, waited on hand and foot by bare-chested manservants bearing a rudimentary form of gin.

We have golden temples decorated with hieroglyphs for sacrificial offerings (and woo from the soothsayers) if required, and The Pit is full of asses? milk.

So, put on your eye make-up that goes out as far as your ears and jewellery so weighty it leaves dents in your head and step out to survey the peasants on the banks.

Come join the 30s TTC if your womble is as ancient and crumbly as Tutankhamen! Egypt; the thread where everyone eventually gets to be a mummy whether they like it or not.

Have had 2 gins. Strong ones. I especially enjoy the thread where everyone marvels at how just sniffing a cock got them diffed Envy

Milano how about that wrestle?

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:22

hurrah! I always miss out on evening chats...it must be that whole hour ahead thing.

slightly amusing:

I haven't looked yet, I was just crying at the end of Any Human Heart.

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:26

Pliz explanation of that. Film?

InTheSunshine · 28/11/2010 22:27

That is hilarious. There are some weirdos on MN!

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:28

Yeah, not like us.

InTheSunshine · 28/11/2010 22:32

I have recently discovered the AIBU threads. LOVE them.

PrincessBoo · 28/11/2010 22:33

Oh sorry Milano forgot about you not getting the same telly. Is an adaptation of a novel by William Boyd. Is a 3 part serial - part 2 just finished.

Just read that thread. Hmm Some people are dumber than a bag of hammers, as MrBoo would say.

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:36

I love reading them. I love that there seem to be professional repliers who come up with the most cutting and/or creative replies ever. Of course, I'd never actually post there. No sir-ee.

I've just been casually googling random topics (Hmm) and came across this list. Are any of you taking anything like these (apart form obvious FA)?

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:37

Can you tell I'm going all out for Christmas?

InTheSunshine · 28/11/2010 22:43

I thought about taking aspirin but then someone else said otherwise. I drank grapefruit juice last cycle to see if it increased pant snot. Didn't. I take some pregnacare type multi vit thing. That's about it.

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:47

It's all a load of crap, isn't it? I think I'll just stick to the pre-seed and extra-sechs method. With a bit of drink thrown in, of course.

PrincessBoo · 28/11/2010 22:48

No. I have run out of FA as well actually, thanks for reminding me.

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:48

Right, I'm off to bed.

milanomum · 28/11/2010 22:49

Of course, drink AND FA. I've been really lax about that recently actually. It won't do.

AlpinePony · 29/11/2010 07:46

POAS said NO. How rude. However, am a little early to test but I've just got over-excited with my cheapies rather than a fiver a pop like last time.

truffs Your hotel sounds lovely - that's the dream really, lying in bed, watching TV and people bringing you food & drinks. Envy

Wrt "immaculate conception" - in days gone by (and Catholic populations) - the yoof indulged in bumsex. Sometimes the whitegoods would seep from the bum and in to the foof. Dcotors would refer to these bumbabies as "backwards babies". Not an indication of any mental (in)ability but simply in the way doctors do acronyms & the like.

I refer you to the BESH questionnaire where Mr Hanky's Hidey Hole is an acceptable method of trying to get diffed.

milanomum · 29/11/2010 07:57

mylittlealpinepony Cheap sticks said no. But that means 'wait a while more and test', right? Wink

As for backwards babies, not liking the fact that there are just some people who can't NOT get pregnant

AlpinePony · 29/11/2010 08:08

milano Yep, I figured test again on Weds! Grin I want one of those Star of David made from piss-sticks decorations.

AlpinePony · 29/11/2010 08:13

"Can't fail to get pregnant" - not so clever trying to explain to your parents that you got pregnant by bumsex but "don't worry dad, am still technically a virgin".

Ivegotmrbitey · 29/11/2010 09:51

Grin at alternative routes to diffedness!

Morning haglettes! What a fabulous day it is apart from being far too cold. I am Envy at truffs gastronomic adventures, I went to the harvester last night. It was as dissapointing as I thought it would be and I was judged for eating a whole rack of ribs. When I defended myself pointing out that it was mostly bone, knob-end of BIL sneered that was not a scap of meat left on them. Grrrrr. Hate rubbish nights out with stupid in-laws. FDH has told his brother about my updiffed state and he (BIL)took me to one side to advise me that yes he had heard our news but wasn't going to get excited yet as it was so early and so many things go wrong. I am very very Angry, is fine for me to be cautious but I think that the appropriate response from others is congratulation FFS.

Grrrr some more. Angry Angry Angry

rocketleaf · 29/11/2010 16:31

bitey I think your Bil sounds like a KNOB!!

In fact wasn't he the one who inspired the bout of shouting KNOB in the Palais in the first place.

KNOB!!!

Actually I'd go as far as TWAT!!!! Angry

Ivegotmrbitey · 29/11/2010 16:37

He is king of the knobs salad I would like to go as far as a see you next Tuesday but am on work computer and suspect it is a sackable offence!

I have been venting my spleen on the shouty thread. It's great but if you read too many of the other outpourings of rage you start to feel a bit got at until you remember it's not you they are all shouting at Smile

milanomum · 29/11/2010 17:14

What a KNOB!!
Couldn't you say something like, " I wouldn't actually expect you to get excited seeing as you are not the father"?
