Round up your ghosties and ghoulies and long legged beasties, the BESH are going to scare out the BFPs!

[sinkyroselee]

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)

Wow, good vid. What an astonishing horse. I'm not hugely into racing (and flat racing in particular), but that is impressive! Eventing is more my thing, but it doesn't have quite the same following or monetary input. Murphy Himself was one of the most exciting horses I've ever seen. It must have been terrifying to ride him, he had no fear at all.

Because Drizz, there cannot possibly be anything to do in life without having procreated . You should have said "My life is one long weekend, because I am not constantly running around doing laundry, making meals and clearing up sick and poo."

I know we don't really think that but hopefully that should shut up anyone who is smug about their life. I saw some pics on FB the other day of a group of friends I used to hang around with before I moved away and there they were, all sprogged up. Toddlers, small children, preggo tummies...everything. (I thought "God, am I the only infertile person I know in RL?") I said something tongue in cheek about them all having entered middle age and he said something back about me being jealous or something. I was so tempted to let rip but really couldn't be bothered :(

Stud duties for Frankel eh? Shame he isn't a human. We'd all be queuing up.

evil I never thought much of racing until I moved to my current location, then got bitten by the bug! I used to work for these guys so was utterly spoilt with great horses.

Jeepers you lot can talk can't you?! I will catch up properly later, am currently travelling in our new camper down to visit MSB's Nan!

drizz your SIL is beyond contemptible! I cast her in a Disney villan role Cruella de Ville, cruella de Ville.... Did you not smugly inform your colleague that us child-less people spend our weekends having lie ins and having all the sechs?! You know like, sechsing, you remember what it was like pre-kids making passionate lurve on a Sunday morning instead of squeezing a quickie in when the kids are asleep?!

Actually, I'm dreaming of any kind of shag at all. I am barred from sechs till the evil drug wears off, and I know I complained about having to do it all the time, but without something to make us do it we just don't do it at all!

aries, I knew one other infertile person in real life, but after she eventually won a baybee (after about ten years trying), she went completely over to the dark side and is now completely dreadful for things like every single Facebook update being about "the wonder of being a mommy". Heave.

Good God, Norf she sounds ghastly. I trust you have struck her off your friends list? Funny isn't it how former long standing barrens can forget the moment they strike gold? Not saying they all do, I absolutely hasten to add

I am hopefully going to get a duty shag in later aka clambering on. Have the Egg White. Don't know why I'm bothering with it, there's surely far more sensible uses for the stuff, such as making meringues. Collecting it could be problematic though.

Spaff meringues. Eugh.

Not spaff you fool. EWCM. Much more acceptable.

A long departed BESH used to joke about that so I didn't think of it (disclaimer).

I too have the egg white but Husband has declared himself Not Interested in sechsing. Meringues you say?

Putting an explanation mark after fool would have made it more lighthearted the way it was intended, by the way :) No offence meant, Euro.

Oh hello winkly.

Do you care to donate to the BESH Meringue Fund?

Every other garment in the charity shops round here is labelled EWM. I assume it stands for Edinburgh Woollen Mill, but it isn't half disconcerting.

"Homemade" meringues?! Eeeeeeeeeew! Although I'd appreciate the chance, I rarely have any to speak of.

Appearance of droid is imminent. I have been grumpy, teary, and cheerful by turns this morning. Then jumped HOTB, which seems to have accelerated droidal onset. Now have backache and am studiously ignoring the idea of digging out the tampax later on. I've also bought a mooncup, which will be delivered within 14 days, which amuses me - that's about how long the droid stayed last time.

Still, HOTB is going to be away all weekend, so it could be worse timing.

Did you see the Big Bang Theory the other evening in which Sheldon advocated buying tampons in bulk?

No, was it funny?

Sorry about droid-imminence, giraffe. God I hate periods and all their bastard works.

No, and am now trying to imagine why he'd want them?! I love Sheldon, even more than Leonard :)

It was funny. It was advice he was giving to Penny.

I'd love a friend like Sheldon - everything they discuss is so gloriously unembarrassed and unemotional.

Ah yes buying 30 years worth of tampax! I told MSB she was better off buying a moon cup!

driz what utter wankers. Can't imagine what us barrens do at the weekend? Clearly they have no imagination.

Unused EWCM could also be used for a mousse type pudding....Just sayin.

I am currently having a complete meltdown about actually having IVF. I had snotty, howling tears last night. I am usually an ice queen so SSG didn't really know what to do. I've stopped howling and am ignoring the protocol letter until tomorrow. When I might look at it again.

Oh Jeffers :(.

Sorry, didn't realise you were in such a state. Is it the thought of having it, or having to have it, if you see what I mean?

Neither did I until last night. I just couldn't stop crying, then this morning we took the dog for a walk and he growled at me then I started crying again. WTF?? I just feel overwhelmed by what I've got to do. I think I've not really allowed myself to think that the IVF would actually happen & now it's here. I'm just gibbering now aren't I

Gibber away, luffly pal.

Aww, Jethro :( When we were told our best chance was IVF I was in a right state. That was way back in May and I still haven't managed to make myself read the info booklets we were given. Crying is a fairly reasonable response, I think.
