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.

God that sounds fabulous. Envy!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 09/05/2012 10:16

Sounds wonderful dor and very pleased to hear that tehe bleeding gas stopped. I've been invited to a ball in June - my friend is in the army and it's a 1930s themed ball :) I'm really looking forward to it!
Today we're off up a hill where we scattered my Mum. Only she would request to be at the top of a massive hill Hmm

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 09/05/2012 10:27

Oh and bugs if you're just about to head off, have a luffly holiday! Enjoy the all inclusive!

Northey · 09/05/2012 11:41

Two follicles on right ovary looking on track to pop this weekend, but they want to rescan on Friday to make sure.

The sonographer didn't seem to have read my cheesy "theatrical starting at surprise baybee in uterus" script.

Northey · 09/05/2012 16:02

My follicles kill fred.

FriendofDorothy · 09/05/2012 16:06

We have another day off today as it is Liberation Day.

I went for a short wander into town with The Mister and had a nice lunch and watches the cavalcade. I have completed my afternoon with a nap on the sofa. Lovely!

CaveMum · 09/05/2012 16:21

Hurrah for follicles Norf

[waves pompoms & chants "Give me an F. Give me an O. Give me a double L. Give me an ICLES. Yay! Grow Follicles!"]

HWHNN and I had a bit of a chat last night and said he'd quite like to go to Afghan, but not at the expense of us not getting a baybee. He thinks we should keep on trying and just deal with whatever happens.

Northey · 09/05/2012 16:52

So what does tha mean, cave? That he goes this year but you keep trying right up until he goes?

He's not decided for definite if he will go or not, but we're definitely going to keep at it in the meantime. I'm hoping for a sods law diffing!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 09/05/2012 18:17

norf delighted to hear there's follicles ready to pop. Sounds like the drugs are doing their job?!
cavey how difficult for you :( I know my friend in t'army says while going away is tough it's what he's trained to do so he wants to go! But tricky when ttc...
euro glad to hear you had a tres bonne time en France. Douze points for consuming Wine and cheese. Was the MIL as sleek as always?

ShredniVashtar · 09/05/2012 18:38

Bonjour all! Sorry, have been quiet for aaa ages due to a combination of long work hours followed by seeing friends and a visit from the in laws. Glad to hear about scans and holidays, and sympathising with cavey .

My news is that the droid is here (grrr) and oh's white goods results are in. Apparently he is 'all normal'. Humpf. Looks like it's just me and my crap womble / lack of a tube that's the problem then! Glad in a way as it adds another piece to the puzzle.

Northey · 09/05/2012 20:55

Nice to see you again, polecatferret and great to hear your chap is ein spunksuccess.

Glad hols were good, euro. Did you hold your own against the gleaming MIL?

FriendofDorothy · 10/05/2012 09:04

Well I had a bit more blood yesterday. It wasn't bright red blood like the day before, more like darker red mixed with mucus so I am hoping it is 'leftover' blood from the day before.

I have decided to take a couple of days off sick though and just take it easy. Sit on the sofa and sew. I am desperate to not lose this baby.

KatAndKit · 10/05/2012 09:14

Good plan dor
Although they say resting doesn't make any difference apparently, it makes a big difference to your mental state and taking it easy is exactly the right thing to do. Sorry to hear you have had more bleeding - it is a total headfuck but at least you have had a good scan so you know that it is most probably nothing sinister. There's nothing wrong with calling the docs again even though you saw them yesterday if you think you need professional reassurance.

FriendofDorothy · 10/05/2012 09:33

Yeah I think my head just feels a bit bolloxed and I really don't want to go to work and deal with other peoples' crises.

I am just hoping that I don't get any more bleeding. My lovely husband is being a superstar though. He has downloaded loads of books onto my Kindle and he is just being so sweet.

eurochick · 10/05/2012 10:32

Dor I am glad you are being looked after.

Hurrah for fractionally less glossy than usual stepMIL!

Sounds like you're doing everything right, dor. Hang in there.

CaveMum · 10/05/2012 18:35

Hello fellow BESH, hope you are all well. Dor I hope you've had a nice easy day.

Tonight I am baking a carrot cake for my [sob] birfday tomorrow. HWHNN is taking me out for dinner tomorrow night but then has to go back to base on Saturday night as he's flying to Afghan on Sunday morning for 3 days to visit some guys that work for him [sigh]. The life of a military WAG Sad

ShredniVashtar · 10/05/2012 20:09

Happy biffday for tomorrow, Cavey! Sad about HWHNN going away but hope you enjoy your dinner out.

I'm bored. Waiting for droid to feck off so we can get back on the sechsing.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 10/05/2012 21:06

Hola BESHes! Greetings from Cumbria Spain.
Happy burfday cavey! Hope you have a luffly day tomorrow with HWHNN!
shredders I'm glad to hear your chap's swimmers are up to task. Crap as it is to have one individual in the partnership with the problem, it's better than having a double whammy. Hope the droid fecks off soon.
I will be peeing on a smiley stick from tomorrow. Unfortunately MSB got a stinky cold last week, he's nearly better but guess who's full of it now?! But I'll take one for the team when we get home. Bring on the sechsing!

Northey · 10/05/2012 21:50

use the turkey baster

Second tracking scan tomorrow. Am really quite excited. Grow, follicles, grow!

CaveMum · 11/05/2012 10:12

Morning all! Thanks for birfday wishes Grin

[hands out chunks of carrot cake]

Hope the scan goes well Norf [waves pompoms]

Northey · 11/05/2012 12:13

Bastard follicles have scarcely grown at all.

Am desponding in the hospital cafeteria with a broken biscuit and some inferior coffee.

eurochick · 11/05/2012 12:20

Bonne apres-midi mes Beshs. Comment ca va?

Bonne anniversaire, Cavey.

I had my pre-iui scan this morning. I have one 19mm follie brewing nicely so now I just need my smiley face to appear and I can book in for basting. My lining looks good too. So we just need to hope that the white goods are up to the job.

Norfy perhaps if you stand in fertiliser? Anyway, my follies do just what they should whenever they are checked upon and I still can't get diffed. Can you pass me some of that biscuit?
