The Rat Smackteers will get their BFPs and they'll BROOK NO ARGUMENT

[BeedleTheBard]

I hope this thread is as lucky as sparkle's

What do we want?

Positive Pee-sticks

When do we want them?

NOW

sparks very odd - possibly a midsummer test of the heating system ready for it coming on for early autumn (ie next week)? Super congrats on your picot edge, I remember doing my first one and was chuffed at how neat it made the edging.

maybe 30? Seriously? We'd have a mass walkout if the temp reached that here. Mind you, we can only open our windows 110mm so fresh air isn't exactly easy to come by. Love the idea of having a summer holiday cocktail party on the tubes, that would be hilarious!!

Feeling a bit bleurgh today - complete skin breakout, I haven't had so many spots at the same time since I was in my teens! Feeling really lethargic with super-bloated, gassy fullness, almost like I feel the day before AF is due. Had some brown spotting this morning (TMI alert - yellowy brown, not pinky brown, with an EWCM consistency). Surely 5DPO is far too early for either AF or implantation bleeding though? I'm in danger of mentalling myself to death, despite being utterly convinced this is not my month.

Ooooh, Geek I Love a new symptom I hate feeling bloated and spotty. As if everything else isn't enough to contend with!

We aren't allowed to open out windows at all. Stupid regulations

Oooo oooo oooo. I have another thing to add to how to get diffed.

Read 50 Shades of Grey......

Ooh Geek ... well you know what we are brooking for obviously diffed, clearly implantation bleed, get thee to a pee stick but we will not say it out loud just yet

Keep I can't believe that bitch AF still has not got the message, we will have to try harder.

Maybe that is the best one yet I read all 3 books

Sparks Maybe the maintenance gu was trying to make it at least feel like summer???

Now why are we all saying summer is over, we have ages to go yet, and it WILL be sunny in August, as the Boo family will be under canvas for a week, it will it will it will!!!! And I really do BROOK NO ARGUMENT!

That's it Boo you tell the weather. I am brooking for sunshine for you too. Where are you camping?

I will Maybe, I damn well will!

We are off to Hayle in Cornwall, can't wait!! not going until the 19th August, (it was the 16th but then DH was asked to be god father for our friends baby on the 18th :()

When and where is everyone else going if you still have a holibob to have?? [nosey emoticon]

Its sunny and about 25 deg here

:o

but I'll be in England on holiday from next week, so I'll be sharing your pain with the crappy weather

I shall let you off this once Beedle where in not-so-sunny England are you staying?

Sounds lovely Boo you still have a few weeks for it to brighten up

Hopefully MrMaybe, pup and I are going away to a little cottage in the Cotswolds for our anniversary in October

OK Beedle as long as you promise to forget to take your coat on a really wet day because it was sunny when you left the house :)

Has anyone read the 'pregnant and no idea' thread......

Boo I'll try to order some sun for you.

Bartlet got a BFP before coming down here on holiday so maybe Cornwall is lucky?

Ooh, I could have me a Cornish sticky bean :) just need to convince Mr Boo that sff in a tent is ok, and no one will know/hear/stare at us like the next morning

Maybe I am going to that one soon!

just had a read through the first couple of pages, ok, I don't want to panic everyone, but are we all certain we have POAS this month?? It is worth checking, just saying!

maybe are you allowed fans? We have a secret fan that we hide under our desks as we aren't really allowed them! I'm going to pass on the 50 Shades method of getting pg, however I know one Brooker that is surely diffed on that basis naming no names boo you wild thing!

boo thank you my dear/bear. I plan on going home tonight and giving all my sticks a ruddy good talking to, so that they are all in a mood to be agreeable when the time comes. I think 5DPO may be a teensy bit early to be testing but please tell me I am not the only crazy lady who permanently carries two superdrug HPTs in her hangbag 'for emergencies'!!

I'm loving all this talk of holidays! Brooking that it will be lovely and sunny for boo's camping, I'm sure nobody would mind you having a little semi-public SFF under canvas :)

Good luck also for beedle's holiday weather, I am sure it will have perked up by then.

maybe where in the cotswolds are you going? I used to live that way when I was in uni.

I'm just off to read the 'pregnant and no idea' thread now, as my interest has been piqued!

Geek we were looking at Chipping Campden, as it is the first place we ever went away together I love the Cotswolds. Where did you used to live?

That thread is amazing and terrifying. I know someone who didn't find out until they were 13 weeks as they were still having periods. All very bizarre.

I will also not be going down the 50 shades route though I may if I get desperate There was a woman reading it next to me on the tube, and she was literally flicking through it for the sex parts

I've read that thread and am now wondering if its possible to still have periods and neg tests and temp rises and no symptoms and be pregnant? Should I go to the doctor and demand an ultrasound scan? :o :o

maybe that is a lovely area. I used to live in Cheltenham/Birdlip/Evesham/Badsey so it was all borderline cotswolds, but twenty minutes drive and you were in the middle of nowhere. Fab! Ick to the woman reading 50 shades for the sex on a tube, that is just grim. If you want to do that sort of thing, do it on a kindle

beedle you most definitely should demand, as you are clearly 9 months diffed! In fact I knew a lady who didn't initally know she was pregnant, had a period and HSG and everything! I think her name was smegs....

Ok, I have officially checked the 'irritable' box on FF - have just bitten someone's head off for daring to turn on the lights!

Geek dont your colleagues know you're a vampire?!!
Shocking behaviour!!

I'm shocked by the 50 shades of stupid (sorry boo) baby boom!! and fancy a woman reading it on the train, I read a James Herbert book on the bus once (I forget which one) and parts of it were really quite smutty, and I spent most of my journey blushing and feeling uncomfortable!!!

Home time needs to hurry the hell up!!!

You tell then sticks Geek give then a good talking to so they understand just what we expect of them! But yes 5 dpo might just be a teensy bit too soon. Rest assured you are not he only one who is spare hpts just in case

Maybe not soppy, actually quite romantical really!!

Feeling quite smug about my 50 shades habit, I at least read the whole thing properly did read some of the dirty bits twice though

Laters :)

Boo one can only assume that as you've read it you must be leaving the charge on the baby boom front :o congratulations!!!

Ok, I have made an executive decision. I am going home at 4 today since I simply can't be bothered am too tired to do any more today :)

One can assume Sparks but it would be most indiscreet to kiss and tell

Get home Geek you have pee sticks to talk to!!

Yay, am now home nice and early, pee sticks have been duly spoken to and I am trying to summon the enthusiasm for doing some housework since I don't have MrGeek under my feet tonight. However, there is an open bottle of wine on the table next to me and everybody knows that wine must be drunk within 24 hours of being opened...
