Cream walls? Check
Pit of Doom? Check
Obscene amount of gin in well stocked bar? Check

The BESH Gin Palais is open to those who fit our demanding criteria. Seek out the BESHtionnaire and prove yourselves worthy - under 30s and instadiffers will be escorted from the premises

I think Skoda use VW parts. They're basically a cheaper VW.

I hired one once to drive between airports - it was an Octavia. It was the Lushness after my shitty Ka.

TWinklyLittleStar · 04/04/2013 12:36

Nice. And nice birthday gifts.

Does it drive anyone else bonkers if you answer a question on a thread and get completely ignored? Fair enough if it triggers 200 responses but if I'm the only person who bothered to answer, or knew the answer, then I wish I'd not wasted my time

HesterShaw · 04/04/2013 12:49

Oh dear, is it this thread?

I hate being ignored on threads too, especially when I've said something HILARIOUS.

TWinklyLittleStar · 04/04/2013 12:52

No you daftie not this Fred, if I was ignored here I would just repost in bold and demand attention :)

alwyn · 04/04/2013 17:27

We've got a ka. Obviously this is a pre-baybee car.

Re: midlife crisis. I am wanting to learn to ride a motorbike, take up pole dancing (no offence rasp and I've just sent payment for the beginner course!) and had an extremely drunk snog with a bloke from the pub I work in Blush.

I am NOT proud of that last one Sad. CGH does, obviously, not know.

Northey · 04/04/2013 18:21

Never mind, allypally, it's not the worst indiscretion we've had here in recent weeks.

I thought that fred could have got a lot worse. And I was very happy at the barren coming out to fight. Normally it's only 3 barren agains an army of senseless instadiffers.

EuroShaggleton · 04/04/2013 18:26

Yeah, somehow word got out, norf. Maybe we barrens need an equivalent of the batsign for when someone starts and IVF thread?

TWinklyLittleStar · 04/04/2013 18:28

Oh al. The pole dancing and the motorbike riding seem like good ideas though, and at least all your shoes are ok... How are you?

TWinklyLittleStar · 04/04/2013 18:28

euro it could be a little fried egg type thing, unfertilised, y'know?

HesterShaw · 04/04/2013 19:19

Or we could do that thing spies do, you know?
"How do you have your eggs in the morning?"
"Unfertilised."

HesterShaw · 04/04/2013 19:20

Alwyn, that's tough. Was it someone you had been Entertaining Rude Thoughts about, or was it out of the blue?

That's Utter Wank :(

TWinklyLittleStar · 04/04/2013 20:43

So bugs, they gave you clomid when you ovulate anyway, gave you too much just for the craic, screwed up the readings and now you've got to go through a whole pile of painful and invasive tests to see what's happened? Goodness, I can't imagine why you're cross. Tossers.

RaspberrySnowCone · 04/04/2013 22:16

Yayee for booking pole lessons alwyn! Hope you love it as much as I do :) but what's going on with the snog? How did that come about? Go steady on the booze for a while if you're feeling wobbly.

And (((((hugs))))) for bugs. Consultants sound nobby.

I haven't ventured on the IVF thread, I can't be doing with the stress. Been trying to get hold of anyone hospital wise who might know when we'll get our appointment date through. I don't mind when it is, I just want to know when it will be. It can't be that complicated can it?!!!

HesterShaw · 04/04/2013 23:45

I have done something unspeakably painful to a fingernail. I don't even know how, only that it involved hoovering. The skin on the side seems to have split and parted from the nail. It's THROBBING :(

Waaaaaaah.

CaptainMoll · 05/04/2013 09:00

I am wincing, Hest.

I'm at the gp's with BE hoping to get his SA results. It's only taken us three effing months to find out what they are! The last gp sort of shrugged them off, admitted she knew nothing about SA and told him to book another appointment with this gp..

CaptainMoll · 05/04/2013 09:53

The results are in - 86 million! Very healthy morphology and motility. I think BE is feeling quite pleased with himself Smile
Gp basically laughed at my concerns over low prog/thyroid.Hmm
So it's all down to the lap&dye now. More waiting...

EuroShaggleton · 05/04/2013 10:15

Bugs I echo what Twinks said.

Ouch hest. Should you take to your bed? Oh no, that was the last fred.

moll I bet BE is puffing out his chest and feeling terribly manly today.

alwyn how do you feel about the errant snog now?

evilgiraffe · 05/04/2013 11:03

Dip it in gin, hest, that'll help.

Excellent work, Moll.

That thread has recently had a very good post by a fellow barren. I mentally cheered :)

EuroShaggleton · 05/04/2013 11:07

It's actually not bad for an IVF fred. Of course you have the idiots coming out with the usual trite stuff about cancer funding and adoption, but there is a substantial number of well-reasoned sensible posts on there too.

Northey · 05/04/2013 12:06

It's definitely less frothing than usual. I love the idea of a bat signal for the barrenz to come and defend their Teflon wombles.

Still no droid. Four days late according to "normal" cycles.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 05/04/2013 13:27

Late Norf???

I has managed to secure Rolling Stones tickets for HWHNN's birthday. He is ver pleased Grin The concert is 2 months before his birthday and he asked me if he would still have a pressie to open in his birthday. Bless, he's such a child at heart Grin

Boo to crappy Drs Bugs, that's just crap.

How's the finger Hesty?

CD 43 here and still no ovulation. It's not worth calling the clinic as HWHNN is away from 15-27 April so even if they did induce droid now there's no point starting another cycle.

HesterShaw · 05/04/2013 14:28

Rolling stones eh? Blimey!

Finger is ok after I took some painkillers in the night Why do small things hurt so much?

HesterShaw · 05/04/2013 14:31

I sense another Five fred coming on. Five and the Mystery of the Absent Ovulation.
Five and the Late Droid Adventure.
Five go to DildoCam Top.
