Asseyez-vous mes amies and ready yourselves for the BESH Eurovision contest ever. Get ready with your Central European fashion, transvestites and inability to sing anything in tune. Get ready to rip your skirts off and leave your other halves no option but to make their mind up (do you see what I did there?) to get down to some swi and do your best not to think of Terry Wogan at any point in the proceedings. Finally, get ready to yell ?nul points? at the evil Droid should it dare to make an appearance.

Newbies, approach in high euro-camp mode, find and complete the BESHtionnaire to let us judge whether you are cynical and menkul enough to join us.

Grin Wink maybe a bit of both bugs. Had a fight with MSB too now because he thinks I'm taking it out on him. Maybe I am...I just don't know how much more I can take.

That's exactly it bugs. It's that raw hurt right at the moment. MSB's gone off in a huff to see our house while I'm at my dad's. I'll settle for a cuppa and a cuddle with DNephew who is delighted to see me and has just learnt the concept of hide and seek. Then I'll apologise when he turns up again.

This week at home we received a giant leaflet about 'giving your baby the best start' all about accessing health visitors. Random leaflet drop. Thinking about leaving FB again. Every time a girl changes her profile pic I'm scared a scan pic will show up!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/05/2012 14:28

Ah he's come back. I have apologised. We have agreed it's ok but it's not iykwim. DNephew is being so gorgeous it has made us both smile and remind us why it will be worth it in the end.

Northey · 04/05/2012 15:01

Done. A bit of a jerky performance but not embarrassingly awful. But you'll never guess the condition of the (v nice) girl interviewing me...

Yup. Massively so. Though she was actually really nice an I wouldn't mind working with her at all. I wish I'd given a better account of myself. It's not that I said anything stupid, or forgot to mention something. It's just that I didn't sound smooth and polished. I ALWAYS sound smooth and polished in interview. I'm not sure what happened :(

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/05/2012 15:16

I always worry about that. I think I sound too monotone in interviews. As long as you didn't say anything too daft! You should be okay.

Northey · 04/05/2012 16:06

Ah well, it's over with now, and now I can concentrate on a long weekend of sechsing.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/05/2012 17:25

Get your nicest undies on then norf! Wink
Here droid has eased and my pain is more bearable. MSB and I have used my Dad's wifi and computer to update our new phones! And I have bought the smiley pee sticks. Awkward hiding from someone I work with in Boots so she didn't see them though Confused

FriendofDorothy · 04/05/2012 18:52

Ahhh I have seen a house I really want. We're going to view it tomorrow :)

CaveMum · 04/05/2012 19:12

Ooo, happy house hunting Dor!

In crap news, my reassessment appointment with the infertility clinic has come through. 10 of farking July Angry. So if this cycle of Clomid doesn't work, I've got to wait almost 2 months before I can find out what's next. When they told me they'd arrange an appointment, I sort of assumed they meant before the end of this cycle so we could move on straight away.

We're off to a quiz night tonight, then dance lesson tomorrow morning, followed by racing on Saturday and Sunday.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/05/2012 19:37

How exciting dor! Do we get to see a link
cavey that's ridiculous! Shock Can you keep ringing for cancellations? But otherwise your weekend sounds luffly.
Well I have expended some excess energy/frustration by cleaning the house, bathrooms included. Now my back aches :( but at least it will be clean when we go away/come back which I wanted. This was stimulated by a nice reply from my friend which clearly indicated she did not ttc for a long time!

FriendofDorothy · 04/05/2012 20:05

I will find you link in a minute, but please bear in mind that this is the most expensive place ever to live so don't expect a mansion!

Oh, and also this needs quite a bit of cosmetic work doing but it could be lovely and has a spectacular garden!

Ok... stupidly expensive bungalow here.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/05/2012 20:09

My friend in Jersey paid twice as much for her 2 bed flat as we did for our four bed bungalow! I'm amazed you're able to buy at all :) but excited for you.
I've just managed to text my smug pregnant with dc#2 friend with congratulations. That's all I could muster! Too churlish not to reply at all but damn has she had it easy...

eurochick · 04/05/2012 20:47

That's lovely Dor, particularly the garden.

Faith that is admirable. Enjoy the smiley pee sticks. For some reason the smiley face always cheers me up. I wondered why they picked that symbol at first but I like it!

Cavey that is sh1t. I have been chasing my private clinic all week for my next pre-iui scan appointment. FFS this process is hard enough without adding unnecessary stress. They were really responsive last month. Now I have prepaid for 3 cycles they seem to have lost all interest... Someone is going to get shouted at after the weekend.

Tis vairy nice dor though you'll need to be handy with a roller! Garden look immense.
euro I had to dig really, really deep but to be fair, it's not her fault she's fallen pregnant at the drop of a hat twice I did realise though we have a mutual friends' wedding in July and now two of them will be diffed. If I haven't had my win by then, it'll be pretty horrendous.
I totally agree about the process being made harder by the appointment process, both NHS and private. I've been Shock by it. Mine's not been brilliant - 6 months to get MSB's first SA, appt times coming the day of the appt, waiting 9 months for my follow up etc but people fighting simply to be heard and get things sorted seems ludicrous! Hope you get it sorted soon euro.

FriendofDorothy · 04/05/2012 21:48

Yeah we would have a lot of work to do to get it ready. The garden would even be big enough for chickens and to grow veggies!

Northey · 05/05/2012 07:33

I really like that, dor.

Well done for mature and decent congratulatory text, faith. I know how hard it is to do.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 05/05/2012 09:51

Thanks norf, we did a few back and forth texts but I didn't do much asking about the baybee I'm not that mature! The other friend had put the scan pic up of t 'other place, sorry friend but I've hit 'unsubscribe'. Worst thing has to be that another preggo friend posted on her wall ooh you too? Everyone I know is having babies! Temptation to say Not everyone love. Now piss off for being so insensitive is high!
But I am off on my holibobs now. Lakes here we come! My signal will be variable but I'll check in as I can! bugs have a fab time!

Northey · 05/05/2012 10:09

Oh please post that! I will cheer from the rooftops if you do. Though perhaps better not

FriendofDorothy · 05/05/2012 12:51

Well, we have put an offer in on that house. I didn't really expect to make the decision today. We now have to wait until Tuesday for a decision. I hate waiting.

sinkingflameofhilarity · 05/05/2012 13:38

Wow dor. I have proper house envy. I loooved it when we moved in and all the rooms were empty and magnolia- blank canvas! (which I have done v little with, but never mind). And don't start me on the garden fit for chickens and veg. I have a metre square of onions, peas and rocket. Envy

Cd 15 here. No signs of ov yet. Clinic on Friday. Yawn to it all

To all the preggers folk. Cockwanks.
