Finally, tell us how you found the BESH and why you'd like to join us pliz.

I have a sleeping bag. I never thought of using it today! The whole house felt chilly. Tis warming up now.

Ok, apologies have been proffered and accepted (along with assurances that he does actually understand why I was cross and isn't just apologising for the sake of it).

Thank you all for listening :o

you're welcome! Glad it's sorted!

It's gone quiet....
Ok well I'll fuel the menkul a bit more...I realised the estimate of droidal arrival on FF has recently been a day out. Since November I've had a 26 day cycle, currently cd26 so imo I'd usually expect Droid tomorrow. It estimates my cycle to be 27 days because that is my average from the 22 I've inputted into FF, rather than looking at more recent patterns. Still get that weird fizzy/fluttery feeling too. Bet it won't amount to anything.
norf did you go home? Did you sechs kiss and make up?

He came to find me and was most abject. And we have sechsed (quite enjoyably, considering I was initially quite distracted by being worried about missing Waitrose's closing time :-)

:) that's funny norf.
You're a bit posh shopping at Waitrose!

Speaking of Waitrose, Have you read the Ocado thread in Chat? Waitrose have some ver, shall we say, divine delivery drivers _

It's my one comfort in this place of misery, faif.

We don't generally go to Waitrose but I was rather impressed with the gf section. It was fine til I saw my then boss and had to hide!
You really that unhappy norf?

Gah, I have a choice of Waitrose, Marks and Spencers or the Co-op. What a choice!

I have spent a reasonable proportion of the day trying to get my blood test results to see if I have ovulated. Why is it so bloody difficult?

That is exactly my choice, dor! Except with a Lidl too.

Really quite unhappy, faith... Isolated and lost. Not having the best time of it, and having to give myself frequent stern talkings to about people starving in Africa etc.

Who is it who is meant to give them to you, dor?

I have phoned my GP's secretary and she is chasing them up. i just want to know if I should hold out any hope for this month or just write it off!

I quite like Lidl but prefer Aldi I am spoilt for choice here, lidl and coop closest, Tesco round the corner. There's a small Asda which I always forget about which in itself is fine but the till set up is horrendous. Waitrose is near Asda. Sainsbury's is across town and massive and scares me so I steer clear. Actually I just like online from Tesco. Minimise the human.contact.
How frustrating dor! Is it the clinic? Did you stamp your foot and remind them you're paying for the service?
Poor norf. Hard when you are so isolated. Will be better when you rejoin the ratrace. Which will be soon I'm sure

Well my temps have continued to drop so I think my last hope for a 2012 baby is gone. :( The droid should be due on Saturday and I could cry already.

:( dor. I don't think mine is far away either.
I've rung in sick for next week. About to battle for a GP appointment. Aibu to email my boss for annual leave not long after I get back? Forgot to ask - it's 4th may and the week after....I think I might.

:( dor. The mixture of normal pre-droid emotionality and sick disappointment is a bastard.

Having little stimulation is certainly making me feel worse. Ah well, got an exciting trip out to the GP today!
Do the BESH have nice Easter weekends planned?

Sorry bugs :(

...but you just got back! :( not easy for you I'm sure.
Well I've got dressed. Just watched that Brick woman on this morning. Trying not to do too much because I don't want to exacerbate my pain so I need the oramorph cos I need to be capable of driving to the docs!
I'm going to need sometime productive to throw myself into next week if I'm still off!

2013 is a good year for ESH bambinos.

I wouldn't bang that gavel too hard on that rickety dingy, Laura! How are you doing, me'lovely?
