Harry Potter and the rise of the BESH: Instadiffers, baby dusters and huns will be subject to the spell Evanesco!!.

Expecto Patronum

If you are you over 30 and have been ttc for over 12 months, are witch like or even better a complete hag and willing to abuse your powers of wizardry to conjure up gin by the bucket load, then fill out the Beshionnaire and join us if you dare in our battle against BESH curse.

Instadiffers and baby dusters will be turned into frogs and used in a potion.

Peskipiksi Pesternomi!!!

Winks the recipie was for real and it was lurverly. Any berries will do, the banana is the strongest taste though so reckon you'd be ok with just a nanana

We go to Badminton and Burghley (almost) every year, and several lower-calibre events too. HOTB has a shitload of photos from events too, if you want to reminisce :)

I'm a bit annoyed this year though, as stabbing (even the max 30 mins earlier than usual) is going to hold us up - normally we're there having bacon sandwiches at 8.00am, but this year we won't leave home before 8.15am. Still, at least Cambs is close.

Wow, I could spend hours on there! And he uses bitcoin (fellow geek spotted)!
This is a stupid question but could you not stab in the car? Obv I don't know the ins and outs but if its about temperature, a cool bag and an ice pack??

rasp I wasn't brave enough for the recipe today. I have had a shocking day, food-wise as well

Hehe yes, he is a geek! If you really want to indulge your geeky side, go to the "technology" page... No, can't stab in the car - or rather, I could, but I'm not leaving the drugs in the car all day as I've got no idea what temperature it could get to even with a cool bag. For the sake of getting there an hour later, it's just not worth it :)

We just made soup. Was very nice.

I'm having a little meltdown tonight. We had a chat and MATV admitted that if this round doesn't work he's not sure he wants to do it again but FET might be an option if we get any though I just feel negative about everything at the moment. I just feel devestated that my life has come to this then I feel guilty because he always says he loves our life and loves me and if it doesn't happen we still have so much to look forward to. I wish I could take that approach, I just can't move my mind past the fact that I'll probably be a barren forever and that's what will define me as a person. :(

Sorry for the downer.

Big wet fishslaps rasp, its super shitty I know. But do try not to dwell on 'if it doesn't work' - it may well work, it does happen.

Seconded Winks. Rasp- don't give up.

Euro- I'm sorry it's so shit for you.

Sorry my comments are brief and unenlightening bug I am shattered from work and seems to be par for the course at the mo.

Hi to everyone else. Hope you're okay.

Thanks chaps, you're right. It's about the here and now, not the future we can't predict.

Bugs there's a woman at work who had new there years who apparently when trying to get pregnant (had twins who are now 9) used to tell everyone when she was ovulating and that she had to leave early or be in late as she was doing the deed. Grim.

Who *has been there

Bugs I saw that comment the other day and was
However because I am an incredibly grumpy bitch at the moment I put it in the bucket of 'influx of newbies driving me fucking mad' and promptly made myself forget about it

Yo hags. Oooh unexpected eventing geek reveals tonight. good stuff. I was meant to be heading to Burghley too on Sat to meet my sis. She's just confirmed not up for it, though, sob. ROCH isn't up for being dragged round another horse event having already done Badders this year so looks like I may not get afterall. Gutted.

rasp, euro sorry you're feeling pants.

Far too early Bugs

Nice to see lots of horsey chat. There's more recent footage of my namesake on his website HERE and HERE

All the newbies need a Frankel introduction

The ESH have always been well represented at Badminton and there will be ESH offspring competing there in years to come.

I've given up and come home to do. That has meant giving apologies for a meeting but I've got a headache and I'm so frigging bloated I can't fit in my trousers so at home I can work in my pants :) I've never been to a horsey event, apart from country fairs type stuff. feels left out too

rasp is it the drucks bloating you and kicking you in the head? Sympathies. Though I would love to be able to wotk from home (but that wouldn't really work)

bugs nothing unreasonable about being short tempered but probably best to keep your job. Can you get out for some fresh air?

I have one more night shift before I'm on leave. Can't wait. Also can't wait for HWCA to get home so we can watch Bake Off, though it is nice having the flat to myself for a few hours.

I'm with you Frankel, he's a living legend of our time . I was really lucky to be in the stands at Ascot and see him come through and win his last race. Everyone was in bits. It was amazing! Love a bit of sport enduced emotional outpouring.

Hi Clyde loving your ambition for the offspring, not a bad height to aim for even if you do have to be nuts to compete at that level. In a good way obv

Love that you are at work in your pants rasp. Argh I wish I was. My director just made me cry at work. I told her about my sister and she was way too nice. Blub.

I mean working at home in pants. Actaully at work, that would be brave or stupid! Unless of course you have legs like a supermodel, which of course you might. Would be a talking point at the meeting. OK I'll stop now. Feel a bit of a blundering wreck just now... forgive.

Too early bugs. You're not far off being in with a chance of seeing something though.

cherry I think frank was there too.

I'm not a horsey type at all. I find them beautiful, but a bit scary. I'm a proper townie. KFZK takes the mickey. One of our current skits has us shouting "horsies" in the manner of a 3 year old whenever we pass any kind of farmyard animal. This stems from me saying "oh look, horses" a few weeks back as we drove past a field. The field was full of cows. To be fair to myself, I was driving at a fair speed and there was foliage in the way... KFZK thought it was hilarious.

Oooo, I'll have to show you my piccies cherry, I managed to see him race every time in his last season, plus twice as a 3 year old and once as a 2 year old I was there on Guineas day

I've been to see him at stud once so far and will probably go and see him again before the year is out - I only live a 15 minute drive from the stud.

The BESH can attest to my constant Frankel updates all last year

His little sister is running at Salisbury tomorrow and I'm going to be there for a work function so hopefully she'll go well.

Tis good being able to work from home. Everyone thinks I've gone home to sun myself but I'm actually more productive at home, I'm one of those people that can get up at 7, grab a coffee and work through until lunch, eat then get back to it until 5 without getting distracted. It's hard if your likely to be distracted by lie in's, TV or ironing if you stay at home.

Yep Twinks think its the old lady piss making me ick and a bit of hayfever too.

Glad you've got a supportive boss Cherry. It makes so much less stressful when you know work isn't going to be a difficulty.

Love your cow mishap Euro. It's the sort of thing I'd do!
