The femmes fatales of the BESH are lying back and thinking of England

[maamalady]

As witches and pumpkins become old hat, the BESH are scrubbing up well in salute to James Bond in general and Skyfall in particular. Put on your slinky cocktail dresses and stiletto heels, grab a Martini, and start schmoozing with well-dressed secret agents.

Insta-diffs will be shot with a quip but without a qualm. Anyone else wanting to join can dodge a few bullets post the BESHtionnaire.

I dare someone to go on that thread and make reference to "the butter dish"

Butter dish?

By the way once I know what it is I will totally do it. I have just had a long hot bath with Only Connect on the iPlayer (I love Victoria Coren) and a big glass of wine so am feeling highly mellow and susceptible

I am not even going to look or I will get sucked in and irate when I am meant to be beig professional and diplomatic at work.

Relaxing has fuck all to do with it. I am fairly sure the first failed diff was achieved in a rush, in a stressy fighty day with some jizz, a pot, some preseed and a syringe. And the second failed diff was late at night in a perfunctorily hammering sort of way, after much pissed off grumbling about why couldn't we have a night off and do it tomorrow. So there. Years of relaxed shagging = zilch. Two crap business-like insertions = diffs.

Oh how I am smiling grimly at "two crap business like insertions".

Stick that up your bangle, Mrs Moment of Pure Lpve.

My CP happened in a month when we weren't trying yet so he withdrew, I was preparing for a huge hearing at work which was cancelled at the last minute in a way that caused a lot of stressful work for us and I was planning a wedding.

So yeah, I take the "relax and it'll happen" advice with a pinch of salt...

Heh. Rie I just popped back on intending to post "what Norfy, no moment of pure lurve"? but I see you beat me to it.

Oh euro have you tried not taking.as.much salt?

I have just been in a taxi driven by a ferociously racist cabbie. I literally did not know people talked like that to strangers.

Shit! Sometimes you can't believe your ears can you? And so you can't think of anything to say. I remember being on a ski lift once with an Austrian ski instructor who I had previously thought was dead cool and fit. He was telling me about his time in South Africa but he had left after apartheid ended up because there were now "too many blacks". You could literally hear the wind whistling through the pines and the snowflakes falling, such was my open mouthed silence.

Bloody hell!

I can't even repeat what he was saying because this is a public forum and I need my job to keep me in gin and handbags, but I live somewhat in the middle of nowhere with only one taxi company so I couldn't say anything, even if I could have thought of anything to say.

I've had this as well. It is so difficult because you are stuck in their car alone with them and clearly they are not a nice person (not saying that racism equals violence but it says something about their character), so saying something could be risky but not saying something doesn't leave you feeling good about yourself. It is do awkward. I say something "hmm" and then pretending to be texting on my phone in the hope that it brings an end to the conversation.

Oops, should have stuck around to explain the butter dish. The veteran BESH will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it is a phrase coined by an Original BESH. It meant no one gets pregnant "by accident", an accident is dropping the butter dish.

Comprende?

Oh dear what has become of me? Had a tiny hint of CM yesterday and today (CD8 today) and a faint line on OPk so the shaggathon began when I got home. Neither of us are remotely in the mood, I even apologised afterwards for it being so shit. That's bad isn't it, but I want to make sure we get one in every day this cycle over ov time and MATV has agreed to supply the goods seeing as how I have to take the drugs. Oh well.

That stupid thread on chat, I read it at work then sat in the loo and cried for a bit. How can people manage it so quickly?! I'm not in a healthy state of mind at the moment.

It's shit isn't it Slapper :(

Yup certainly is. Have they moved that thread from Chat or has it disappeared or am I just missing it?

Frankel that link brightened my whole existence! MATV moaned when I shouted at him to come look and is now watching on the laptop intently bless him. Should keep him quiet for a while!

Aren't they just the cutest Slap?

Kittencam is my favourite!

Loving the kittens. Am at my ex flatmate's house so I get to see the cat I lost custody of - he acts aloof cos he feels abandoned but he luffs me really

slaps its understandable and fairly normal.

OMG so cute! What's the main website that comes from? I need to send it to my MIL, just for the LOLs (ILs have six cats already, firing up the kitten-want is always entertaining)

Just in case kittycam doesn't do the job...

pandacam!

I want a kitten. Just thinking of their big pointy ears, round kitten eyes, and sticky up little tails make me all squidgy!

I don't know where it comes from Evil, there's a thread about it in Chat so I nicked the link!

They are gloriously bouncy I love the little skippy-sideways thing they do

Turning their little heads upside down!

I found a mention of said butter dish sad loser looking at old threads and foudn pone mention it last Christmas here 7th December 13:00h ish :)
