Its true, NGCECOAWT, so the BESH move on.

Join us in spooky October, for a different sort of Pagen fun. Sod the lentil weaving and organic bean bags, we're channelling pointy black hats, green tinged foundation and probably a bit of Harry Potter.

Join us for cursing of the insta-diffs, moments of pure love and the horrors of the cam of the fanjo - post the Beshtionnaire and the coven will judge you.

This is not a woo thread (TINAWT)

Urgh, awful day at work. One of our kids was knocked down on Saturday night in a hit and run (you may have seen it on the news).

Today has been sad and rubbish. I can't feel sorry for myself in any way because I still have my loved ones.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 08/10/2012 17:14

Oh God, Alwyn. I did see that. Poor young lad, only twelve years old :(. It must be so sad at school - I'm so sorry.

I'm back from Dorset and will now catch up. Hello hags.

I can't find it on news but it sounds awful and I'm so sorry.

FrankelSaysRelax · 08/10/2012 19:19

Oh Al I'm so sorry. How horrific. Was he one of your pupils?

eurowitch · 08/10/2012 20:18

Thanks Bugs. I had tried to use My Profile before. But it's in the registration bit, I think.

alwyn that's just dreadful. How sad.

WinklyFriedChicken · 08/10/2012 20:32

al really sorry to hear that.

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 08/10/2012 21:19

Sorry al that is terrible :(

raspberrytipple · 08/10/2012 21:35

Al that's awful, how someone could do something like that is just beyond me :( Horrific

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 08/10/2012 21:37

Also, norf that is shit. What's the plan with wayward hcg?

alwyn · 08/10/2012 21:38

I didn't teach him personally but I do teach one of his brothers. Can't believe they were both in today - so much strength!

And yes bugs, we must be fairly close by!! I'm a Pudsey girl Grin

HaveALittleFaith · 08/10/2012 22:50

I'm so sorry Al. You're allowed to be sad you know - for the life lost, for the impact you know it's having on his family and friends. :( how awful.

WinklyFriedChicken · 09/10/2012 09:18

Morning all

How are you today al? And norf ? Your hcg needs its ass firmly kicked.

Northey · 09/10/2012 09:33

Morning witches.

al I'm so sorry to hear about your pupil. How is school today?

bugs has droid turned up yet?

Northey · 09/10/2012 09:35

No plan with hcg, lemons. Just presenting my arm for blood every week till it goes away. When is your next counselling sesh?

eurowitch · 09/10/2012 12:19

Morning fishwives. Well, afternoon actually.

I'm feeling pretty good today. The sun is shining and I went for pilates (or pirates as it is now known chez euro) before work so I am feeling tall. :)

Ov is looming though, so the mentalling is imminent.

I lived in Yeadon until last summer and worked in Leeds City Centre. We would have been so close to each other!

evilgiraffe · 09/10/2012 14:04

Hello all. Hope you're alright, al, why a horrible situation to have to deal with :(

Sun here too, though a bit chilly. I've put in some miles on my bike and had lunch with a friend, all is right with the world! Droid due at the weekend, mind you.

raspberrytipple · 09/10/2012 17:54

afternoon ladies. Euro/Evil please don't hog the sun, it's really gloomy where I am and I would like you to share it please :) and quite drizzly.

Evil are you a roadie on the bike then or off road? I love mountain biking and got into it in a big way a few years ago but this last year, since I got married really, I've lost it completely but really miss it. I'm due on this weekend too, Sunday to be precise.

I'm having my hair cut at home tonight! Such a novelty, I usually go to a salon but my hairdresser lost her premises and is in the middle of setting up the new one so tonight she's coming to me.

evilgiraffe · 09/10/2012 18:07

I don't think I'm technically good enough to be either really, raspberry, but roadie I guess! I can see the appeal of mountain biking though, but it's been a long time since I went over anything more bumpy than the occasional kerb! The Tour de France this year got me all enthused (it should have done last year really with Cav doing so well), followed by the Olympics and various other tours. I got my road bike for Christmas last year for the triathlon-that never-was and loved it from the very first ride. I'm particularly loving it because it's both safe and fun, neither of which are the case with running. Seeing as it was running that sent me into anaphylaxis I'm very wary of doing it again, but so far even pushing quite hard on the bike hadn't had the same effect, hurrah!

I'd share the sun if I could! It's a nice thing about the east, it may be fecking cold in winter, but it also tends to be relatively dry and sunny :)

FriendofDorothy · 09/10/2012 18:32

Is it wrong to still feel narked that friend of ours who got married 3 months after us have just announced they are diffed for the second time.
? I know I am pregnant and all that but I still feel irritated that they have had it so easy!

evilgiraffe · 09/10/2012 18:35

Not at all. A friend of mine who has a shiny new baybee was moaning the other day about being jealous of a diffed friend of hers. I was lost for words.

HaveALittleFaith · 09/10/2012 19:01

Nope, completely understandable. I am massively Envy of my friend who is due to drop with DC2 next month, they got married 3 weeks before us. It's about not being where you expected to be in life dor.

evilgiraffe · 09/10/2012 20:00

YES, faif, that's exactly it. I always planned to have three children, and to have them before I turned thirty. I'm thirty in December, so there is an outside chance I'll have DC1 while I AM thirty, but that's as close as it'll get.

Although I have been wondering vaguely about adoption, so if IVF is a massive failure, you never know, maybe my DC have been born already?
