Ski Sunday music ready, the BESH are Bobsleighing their way through the icy slopes of hope and despair to win their medals

If you’re over 30, ttc over 12 months and wearing nipple tassels under your snowsuit then this just might be the thread for you - if you can prove yourself bitter and evil enough. We’ll be the judge of that. Don your snowsuit , cowbell ready - fill in the BESHtionnaire and prepare to meet our icy glare. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

I don't know. I'm starting to recognise the signs of awful stress in myself and I don't know what to do about it. It's the heart thing mainly. I've had too much to deal with - I think it's starting to hit me.

Normally I'd go for a fast, hearty yomp and then down a bottle of red wine. Can't do either.

The on off nature of the electricity and endless violent frightening storms aren't helping. We're counting every penny, so I can't go and lavish money on myself. Ww need to have completed the house move by next Friday or we'll be charged another month's rent at the same time as the first mortgage payment. The car is broken. I've been phoning the estate agent daily and they keep saying they'll get back to me and they "understand the urgency" and they'll stress it with the solicitors, but still nothing happens. Apparently the women who's dealing with it all is off sick today. FFS

I can feel myself start to lose it. I haven't felt like this for about ten years. Don't tell me to go to the doctor. I've seen enough doctors. I just need things to start going right.

I'd be tempted to start throwing my weight around Hest, that if the solicitor hold ups cause you to have to pay another month's you expect that figure to be deducted from their fees. You are not holding it up - they are.

Another month's rent

I tried, honestly I did. I went in there today. They would probably threaten us with court action if we did that.

They won't do that Hest, you are not the cause of the hold up. Can you bypass the EA altogether and talk to your solicitor?

Huh. The solicitors are through them. I will be asking for a feedback/customer survey thingie afterwards anyway.

Yes but you need a week between exchange and completion, yes?

I might be wrong, but I thought it was possible to exchange and complete on the same day? The legal ESH might be able to help on this.

This might help Hest

We exchanged and completed the same day (less than a month ago). Exchange was v late afternoon, completion 15 mins later ish. That was a Friday so we also verbally agreed with seller/buyer to do physical move on the Sat. Worth pointing out some lenders do like more notice to draw down funds

Good plan.

We've been into the bank and they can transfer in two hours.

Deffo agree with the others - we exchanged & completed on the same day. Hest you have so much going on. One thing at a time duck as they say round these parts...

Bugs irrational in the IVF 2ww is par for the course!

Sorry about all the shit and men killing here. Apols for being a crap besh. Have some crayfish of calm!

Men killing?! What have you been up to Drizz??

Menkulling=men killing...
Euro's joke of a few weeks ago!

Bugs you're right! SSG was working in Asia for most of my 2ww which was the only thing that stopped me testing before OTD. Now, breathe & repeat after me --> IOTO. IOTO. IOTO.

It was an already established joke? Oops
