A wordy fred title I know, but it's too early to think of something snappier!

Get ready for the end of the world: grab your OFRS, your emergency gin supply and join us shrivelled harridans in the BESH Bunker.

Admittance is only permitted on production of a successfully completed BESHtionnaire (hint, check out previous BESH threads)

This weather is actually apocalyptic.

AMNH was all gung ho about going kayaking today, despite my extremely dubious noises last night. I took him down to the river this morning and stood patiently by as the lesson sank in that weeks of exceptionally heavy rain equals very high, very fast, very dangerous rivers, with big lumps of tree debris careering down them. Numbskull.

aries, your abstemiousness does make you enviably slender though [jealous]

:( Poor woman.

Question - at what stage do we think its worth POASing?

Two days after droid is due and not a second earlier.


Why?

FrankelDeBeauvoir · 24/11/2012 19:23

Honestly wink, I would leave it until you are actually late. Personally I find a negative test harder to take than the arrival of droid, but that's just me.

Well my cycle is usually 28 days, but has been known to be longer. I started my last droid (spotting) 30 days ago and no spotting yet. But then I think I ov'd late this month so maybe I'm just due later. Dunno. As you say a negative test is worse than droid arrival.

wowzers. I get back from holiday, and here we are... Bit chilly eh?

Winkly, I would pick your longest cycle and test after that. But I don't really test now- My cycles go from 35 days to 80 odd days to 6 months plus. The bfns really are tough aren't they. I live in hope of one of those crazy, "6 months diffed and didn't even know". Hardy-ha ha.





Who was is that brought the bag of issues to the woo Fred? Did it survive the apocalypse? It was pretty comfy.

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten the bag of issues. Wasn't it one Of those BESH fr five minutes the diffed ones whose names I evilly and haggily forget straight away? Or was it winkster, who is unforgettable ;)

These instadiffers

It thought it might be Wink. Or maybe draf. If it was an insta diff imposter, I'm claiming it as my own. God only knows I've enought issues to ensure its nice and comfy.

And, of course, excellent fred frankel. Loving the title- not wordy at all!

You've got the (now decidedly mangey) peacock feather, sink. You can't be greedy.

I saw someone in another Conception fred (checking out the enemy) refer to the BESH as "cliquey". Oh how I laughed!

I tested two days early, only because I had vomited and thought it unusual. They were two scary days waiting for AF!

Cliquey? The only people we judge are those sprinkling fucking babydust with gay abandon. I thought a clique was a group people wanted to get into? I never thought being over 30s, barren and bitter was something to aspire to...

Norf! The peacock feather!

You'll be just like the Isle of Wight but with clog dancing! And armbands!

Cliquey? If only they knew how desperate we were to be infiltrated by anyone with fresh gin and jokes.
