Now then you lot. I've got a 40 pack of menthol fags from my mate that just got back from Croatia, a slightly dusty bottle of Bison Grass vodka I'm not sure what to do with, and a carrier bag full of cheap eBay pregnancy tests.

Obviously it's a bit lonely in here at the moment so I'd be glad to see anyone, but please be assured that given I've been pissing on my own fingers trying to aim it onto the bloody eBay tests for a year now to no avail, those in the first month of trying for their fourth child might be met with a) a stony stare followed by b) convulsive bouts of weeping Grin.

Disclaimer: you don't actually need to be a smoker. I'm not some kind of maniac.

PrettyCandles I cannae speak for any of the others but I likes the cut of your jib, and you may hang around here as much as you please ESPECIALLY as you have just poured a bottle of blackberry whisky all over my head

What the ... Aries!!! What ARE you doing here?!

Don't presume that lack of flange-water suggests no ovulation old thing. One never knows for sure, unless you are enlisting the assistance of baby computers etc. etc. etc.

Someone has offered to send me their piss sticks. I may take them up on the offer. Just as an experiment you understand.

PrettyCandles, please stay. Anyone who understands fencing and giants is a pretty good egg In My Book. Just stand and cheer and swap stories of misspent youths and stuff...

Inconceeeeeeivable!! Oh that may not be such a tactful thing to say round these parts. :o

PrincessBoo · 02/12/2010 10:55

PrincessBoo · 02/12/2010 10:59

Crying last night, laughing today. You lot will drive me to the nuthouse.

Grin flange-water. That's nasty......

SpringHeeledJack · 02/12/2010 11:31

I am not TTC but am forced to comment on your OP, which I feel is in very bad taste

..... MENTHOL fags?????

eeeeeeeeeeewwwwwww

BlooferLady · 02/12/2010 11:50

I am quite proud of flange-water, I must say

Ooh SHJ you are VERY kind. I sort of want to smoke Marlboro Red owing to their having been mentioned in any Amy Winehouse song and if I could just point out if I could just point out I was into her long before she got all famous and manky

SpringHeeledJack · 02/12/2010 11:56

ooh, you mean like before Back to Black, and Ronson and that, when she was always on the Robert Elms Show and did sort of housewife-jazz type stuff?

BlooferLady · 02/12/2010 12:16

What is 'Robert Elms'?

I saw her at the Koko club. She was pretty and slightly plump and sat lauging with her family during the support act then went onstage and was unspeakably filthy and funny

Anyway get off that spin dryer when you talk to me Grin

InnocentRedhead · 02/12/2010 12:33

THE latest craze! Biscuit

InnocentRedhead · 02/12/2010 12:34

Flange water hmmmm weirdos nope you sound like ym sort of ladies!

BlooferLady · 02/12/2010 13:46

Nice to meet you Innocent, although I am inclined to think your are not very accurately named Hmm

Kindly cheer me up. I am midway through my eleventh failure to create the miracle of life.

OP posts:
Ariesgirl · 02/12/2010 13:57

Are you absolutely sure now? Please don't hit me. There won't be anything to cheer you up, my sweet, for the moment. Distractions work - perhaps a spell in the gym? No? Don't hit the cake though :( I'm very sorry, old thing Put on some music, fill a hot water bottle and play with any pets you may have around the place. Or if you're at work, just fill the time until you can reasonably slope off and do the above.

I'm not helping so I'll shut up and stroke your hair.

Ariesgirl · 02/12/2010 13:59

PS Hello hello hello to SH Jack and Innocent. Anyone got any tales they'd like to share?

PS I used to like Cat Deeley and find her reasonably entertaining. Now she's "swishing" I just want to kill her.

HillyMcGrew · 02/12/2010 14:14

I feel I got off on the wrong foot before, I'm not very good at this sort of thing.

Anyone for a Xmas Biscuit?

Ariesgirl · 02/12/2010 14:24

Hello Hilly (that phrase was in Red Dwarf once. Anyone remember the episode?)

How are you this fine snowy afternoon?

HillyMcGrew · 02/12/2010 14:38

I'm fine, thanks Aries, just staying indoors pretending to work. The snow is up to my knees here. How about you?

Ariesgirl · 02/12/2010 14:46

Oh it's really, really deep - at least up to the tops of the soles of my wellies :) And now it's melting. I think that's our lot for the winter.

I'm not even pretending to work.

HillyMcGrew · 02/12/2010 15:44

. How's about this instead?

SpringHeeledJack · 02/12/2010 17:50

I am a total fraud and shouldn't be here- I was vortexed in by the thread title

[shame]

I am forty something and manifestly not TTC. NTTC, if you will

but when I was a foulmouthed thirtysomething fag toting boozer I did manage to conceive. Quite unintentionally. And would like to say it worked for me, and everything the so-called experts tell you is bollocks, so carry on Wink

you all sound like a lovely lot, and the best of luck to you all

Belu · 02/12/2010 18:43

I said a brief hello last night, but you all seem straight-talking and I think I need someone straight-talking.

I've got my period at the moment, but a day or two earlier and lighter than usual. Last month was the same. The little voice in my head tells me that maybe I'm one of those people who carries on having her period throughout pregnancy. The bigger, less insane voice tells me that I'm mad. There are no other symptoms so please just tell me that I'm being stupid without judging me too much....

Ariesgirl · 02/12/2010 18:53

You asked for it Belu - you are being stupid. There. I don't judge you though Grin

Or you could always test?
