Conception

The Genuine BESH Palais. To misquote Carlsberg, we're probably the barrenest TTC-ers in the world...

We are Barren. We are Evil, on account of having left procreating until our 30s. We are Selfish, thinking only of careers and money and cars and holidays. And lastly, we are Hags. Welcome to the BESH gin palace. Babydusters and instadiffers need not apply.

Thanks Kat, but I really wouldn't bother :(

Why else would the boob pain have gone away?

God I'm so miserable. Kate Middleton with her baby bump is all over Tinternet and she still looks utterly beautiful. I look like a sack of shit. Fucking cow. Apparently she got pregnant as soon as they started trying.

I can't cope with this wedding this weekend hags. But I have to. MrHest is an usher :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

Winks that actually made me smile a little bit. So count it as a success :)


Fucking weddings I won't know anyone at all apart from MrHest, the bride and the groom.

Listen to Twinks she speaks a lot of sense. Plus has the DoC ever shown Rory Bremner what to do on a boat on telwvision? No she has not, so 1-0 Hesty in my view Wink

Do you have a stick ready for tomorrow? Gives us an ETP (estimated time of peeing) and we'll all be here to hold your hand.

There's always a gorgeous instadiffer somewhere, Hest, don't let it get to you. At least it is her primary role in life - can you imagine how stressful it would be for her and Wills if they were barren? I'm glad I don't have the whole world speculating about me.

I've just been out for an eighteen mile ride. Nice and warm out there, but fucking hell uphill into headwinds is not fun. On the plus side, it meant I was charging down the other side of the loop at the speed of light (25-30mph ish), which is always fun Grin I'm still nervous about whether I'll actually get up to the distance/speed required for RideLondon though, doing 100 miles at the average speed of the ride I just did seems like a long way off Confused

Sorry about the shyteness, rasp.

Hurrah for new job al.

Sorry about Droid/expected arrival of Droid and forthcoming wedding attendance, hags.

Think about Zara, hest. We decided a couple of freds ago that she must be One of Us. I'm sure that must be right. She must feel shyte to be watching DoC glowing and getting all the attention.

I bet she isn't barren . And even if she was she could pay and pay and pay and pay until she won her baybee.

You couldn't just pay for endless cycles, though, even if money was no object. It'd drive you round the twist.

Hester imagine having been raised to marry Mr A, to turn a blind eye when you found him in bed with a couple of upper-crust lovelies, to have your teeth fixed, your nose narrowed, exist on 500 calories a day and never voice an opinion. And I don't for one moment believe she was an insta-differ, she was smoking in France during "those pics" - that's the behaviour of someone who's given up. Or maybe she just went on hols, relaxed and it happened! Grin

Anyway I have been shopping. Items bought include 2x piss sticks, a black pashmina, alright then SCARF, and a black silk flower thing for my hair. Having now tried it on, it looks like nothing other than a gymkhana rosette for some fat little Annabelle or Lucinda's pony. Will have to rethink, bearing in mind only shop here is New Look.

bugs hi there - where are the hollibobs going to be? distraction is always a good thing and holidays tend to have wine and gin and other good stuff. You any further with the FC bizniz?

EuroShaggleton · 25/04/2013 20:23

Hest that sounds nice. I'm sure you don't look like you are wearing a rosette, lovely.

Bugs I know what you mean. I wish I had no knowledge of EWCM and half of London hadn't peered up my chuff trying to figure out, fruitlessly, what is wrong with me. Why can't I just be an instadiffer?

TWinklyLittleStar · 25/04/2013 20:23

bugs I dunno. Luck of the draw, I think. I had a good righteous angry Judge at a differ today, who was being an arsehole. Its so clearly not about 'deserving' it or otherwise.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 25/04/2013 20:37

It's has nothing to do with deserving and undeserving. That's something I had to get my head round when I had my counselling session. We've done nothing wrong to "deserve" this situation, it's is merely the sucky hand we've been dealt.

Evening all feels too harsh to call you schlags

bugs there's no rhyme and reason to it but its definitely ok to feel sad about it.

hest rooting for you tomorrow.

al and twink congratulations on the job changes.

Sorry you're struggling rasp.

Is Norf ok? Very quiet.

We are doing ok. Faithlet has been weighed and has gained so much she's 5oz over her birth weight :) boob juice is fattening her up.

Rasp I can totally empathise. This time last year I reduced my hours at work from FT to 3 days a week because I just wasn't coping with life. Hang in there.

This is all just so hard sometimes.
