Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:29

Thanks for the musical turn Blue I too love The Sound of Music. Must have seen it at least 100 times. Even thought I might make a good nun when I was about ten! [brin]

VJaybigpants · 10/04/2009 11:29

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 11:33

neeko, hmm wanting to be a nun at 10 you say, that must have been before you discovered BOYS and discovered a fatal flaw to your plan .

Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:35

My name is after the dog that New Kids on The Block had in their hey day although I've changed the spelling.

Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:37

Blue Just what are you implying?! Think it was actually boys that discovered me. Hee Hee.

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 11:40

LOL neeko Was the dog their '6th' member or merely a roadie or more like a blue peter pet?

mermaid - your name has always fascinated me...spill the beans...

VJaybigpants · 10/04/2009 11:42

My name is just my first 2 initials, no imagination there!!!!

Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:45

No he was just cute. One of those dead wrinkly dogs and there's already a MN member with the name Mrsjoemac which is what I really wanted to be (For years and years). Before you say anything, yes he was the small scawny one but I went to see them on their reunion tour in January and he has grown up Fiiiine!

Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:47

VJay at least you won't forget it. I have so many passwords and stuff that I'm always forgetting. Very frustrating.

MummyLovesSadie · 10/04/2009 11:53

Oooooooo lust on our thread??? I thought only military planned pre-meditated bd'ing existed here, haha!

Neeko · 10/04/2009 11:58

Shame the lust I was discussing isn't with the person I BD with...oh well, a girl can't have it all.
p.s. Followed your link and thermometer should arrive tommorrow - ta.

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 12:00

Neeko you saucy mare! Some men do get better looking as they age look at Justin Timberlake he's lush (although far too young for me !

I was more of the Wham!/Duran Duran era and liked Rodger Taylor who was the short skinny one of that band

I must go to the gym - byeee x

mermaidspurse · 10/04/2009 12:11

a mermaids purse is full of eggs - fish eggs that is, not sure which kind maybe a skate or something I just liked it - you pick them up on the beach, the empty ones that is - me being all ironical now. But I think my purse would have lots of emeralds, pearls and diamonds from lots of shipwrecks and a little merbaby as well

Justin timberlake well before my time
I had Donny Osmond nail transfers and bay city roller socks

Afternoon all! Sorry I disapeared for 3 days, I was a bit poorly sick, I collapsed at work in a vomitty heap (not a pretty sight!) All better now though. Big wave to LittleBellsMum for missing me (between all that symptom spotting!).

What a lot happens round here in 3 days!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! MollieMooma brilliant news about your BFP!

4ever good to hear you finally got the results you've been waiting for.

Jools have you done a test yet? Your cat story made me laugh!

Barbie sorry you had a rough day, but well done for sharing it and not keeping away like naughty Gracie.

On the subject of our choice of log in name - Gracie is the nickname my best friend calls me, apparently when I don't straighten my hair I look like Grace from "Will and Grace". I call him Will as he's my male best friend, though he's not gay. Apparently I nag at him like Grace does at Will! - surely not! Will set me up on my first date with my DH!

Blue I've got tickets to see Duran Duran at Edinburgh castle in July!! I'll blow a kiss to Roger Taylor for you!! I'm a bit young to be a Duran Duran fan its Will's bad influence.

Back at work tomorrow for the day shifts between Kate's nights in A&E, unfortunately people don't just stick to night time drinking on a bank holiday - hey Kate make sure you leave A&E tidy (and empty) for me! A girl can hope!

VJaybigpants · 10/04/2009 13:32

hi gracie I hope you are feeling better now, I hate sick!!! This is a busy thread isn't it. I didn't get the chance to come on here yesterday and it took me a while to catch up.

barbie1 · 10/04/2009 13:48

who are duran duran, bay city rollers and roger taylor..... im wayyyyyyy to younger to remember! ha ha [young face emotion]
Im an 80's baby so i do remember wham, boygeorge and other such music...oh and bon jovi...i can sing along to any other there songs all be it out of tune i think take that were my idols, robbie in fact..remember seeing them when i was about 13! not too sure about them now tho!

gg what is wrong with you? hope you are ok!

jools you bugger, facy disappearing on us!

hello mrs vjaybigpants missed you yesterday

On the subject of names, when i went to college to study beauty therapy i had long v blonde hair and a perma tan thanks to rimmel wash off bronzer so the barbie name stuck...but long before my uncle used to call me barbie beckie as a child!
My leaving party from my sat job when i was 17 was barbie themed and we all dressed as barbie and unknown to me my parents had decorated our garden with everything barbie including paper cups which we thought would be a good idea to take on a pub crawl with us until we realised the disintergrate (sp?) and ended up in a sticky soggy mess. This was also the night all 8 of us was banned from karaoki for singing aquas im a barbie girl really badly!

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 14:47

I'd love to see a 'young face' emotion - probably a smiley with bunches . I can only imagine you on the kareoke barbie all swich of hair and dark of tan .

Ahh Rimmel make up - it has alot to answer for - electric blue mascara anyone?

oooh Gracie - at you going to see DD - I saw them in 2004 when they first reformed and they rocked. Went with biggest Duranie of all time who swears John Taylor winked at her >

Mermaid I'm loving your name history and I'm sure your purse is full of precious stones (and shortly the most precious cargo of all...)

I've set this afternoon aside to print off digital photos as my album hasn't been updated since October as my heart wasn't in it. DH was looking at me 'fondly' earlier but I told him I was in 'hibernation' until next week - poor love, its bloody feast to famine around here .

Neeko · 10/04/2009 14:48

Ok, over to the experts. Have done several OPKs and always had no line, until today. Today's line is definite but a little paler than the test line. Does that really still mean negative or does it suggest I'm heading in the right direction?
(Before anyone says anything, yes I know i'm officially waiting for AF, but it seems she is visiting elsewhere and I'm bored!)

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 14:48

swish of hair!

bluesatinsash · 10/04/2009 14:50

Neeko in the days leading up to a +ve on my OPKs the test line gets a bit darker each day until it is the same/if not darker than the test line. Hope this helps x

Its great being able to be on here freestyle and not whilst either DS is napping or sneakily at work!!

VJaybigpants · 10/04/2009 14:54

neeko when I did my opk's I never got a line darker than the test line but went for it anyway, and voila!

I've just been sat down with my feet up and my hand on my tummy and felt lo kick through my tum for the first time, I got ds to have a feel but lo didn't do it again, it's all very exciting and has cheered me up.

Neeko · 10/04/2009 14:56

Oooooh thanks Blue! Guess I'll be testing again tomorrow. Can you come and do my photos next?
I have just left the laptop on today and I'm checking the thread every so often. DH will be around for the next 4 days and he's a bit skeptical of the MN malarkey (MEN!) so I probably won't be on much.
Gracie Hope you're feeling better. I used to be a big Will and Grace fan.
Barbie I'm totally imagining you in v high heels and pink clothes. LOL at the cups disintegrating.
