30s TTC: Club BESHicana, drinks are free and we're hungry like the WOOFL! The MSDP continues...

[Scorpette]

Come on in, collect the Grolsch bottle tops for your DM shoes at the door

We're going all-out 80s for the continuation of the Mass Summer Diffment Project: John Hughes films playing back-to-back and on BESH FM, DJ ChoCho will be playing our all-time 80s faves, from New Romantics to Synth to Goth to Hair Metal to Pop and back again (no Fields of The Nephilim, mind). Our bartenders and waiters are Ducky from Pretty in Pink, Ralph Macchio (the Karate Kid) and Corey Haim (back from the dead especially for us) and unlike most of the real 80s, we actually get to booze!

Here's hoping the authentic 80s vibe will trick our bodies into thinking we've got the ovaries of teenagers!

(Not to mention tricking them into being super skinny and able to eat whatever we want and staying that way!)

There's plenty of Babycham and Ice Magic to pour over ice-cream in the Pit and Metal Mickey will bring them to the wretched at the click of a finger.

So whaddya waiting for? Slip on the ra-ra skirts, slap on the blue eyeliner and let's get winning those baybeez! Last one in the pool's a psycho hose beast!

I am off now, need to eat.

You lot are lush, d'you know that?

'Girlbanger'? Don't encourage Lyra even further. Poor love will probably need hospitalisation as it is!

I wonder if Lyra knows she's being mercilessly teased when her back's turned? Aren't we wankers?

Oh hang on....

snigger

AGH. BUGGER. SHITE. So the man came over to the foreen parts today for his holiday and all, and perfect timing twas too, as I am just getting to that time o' the month, so was all chuffed to get the timing right for baybeemaking, innit. WEll...

HE'S GOT THE FLU!! FFS!

We did not SWI last month either due to intrusion of MML. (If you remember, there was some confusion over that on the thread that I won't try to describe as it will create more confusion...) That's two missed months! And we are going to the FC this month, which just makes me feel like a total imposter as we are not even trying! AGH!

I've been wanting to ask about Cockodger myself! I miss her. No idea what she decided at the end...

P.S. Wellcome chooser. Or perhaps you should be welcoming me?

Mountie is this manflu or proppa flu? Bloody men and their precious preciousness. Bloody annoying.

And I remember his attempts to shag your mother. Or was it his? Eeek.

Proppa ruddy floo. Twas mine. Poor fella would be horrified if he read this. THERE WAS NO ATTEMPTS OF SUCH KIND. I thought I should clarify for the newbies, though something tells me I am setting myself up Lyra style...

ay up just checking in before bed so apologies for spelling, grammar and punctuation screw ups.

orc i agree with scorp re the menkuldocs being a help. was going to post to this effect earlier but held back for some reason. might be hard to do it if you are too freaked by these things (i'm a bit of a sweep it under the carpet kind of girl myself) but have a couple of BF's who have had some good chats with the head checkers. apart from the obvious thing that talking to an emotionally distanced person can help with perspective, they may also be able to suggest coping mechanisms you might not have figured out on your own. worth thinking about maybe?

sausage well impressive pro-activeness on your part, to be sorting out cv and a back up plan so quickly. hope it works out as best for you. this might sound trite in the current economic climate but you could also see it as an opportunity to evaluate if you want to stay at your company in the positions left available. they are going to evaluate you? so you evaluate them right back. submit those job applications anyway, they could be better than your current job and at least they are with a company thats recruiting not downsizing!

MFT, best cure for flu (man or otherwise) is a massive influx of adrenalin and serotonin, can't imagine where you could find such a thing?

choochoo pls do the quiz again if just for us newbs benefit. c&p from a couple of pages back from either mine or sos's. welcome home back.

as for me OH has really surprised me tonight, had a big chat about AC earlier, which didn't go that well from my perspective as he's not very keen on the idea of IUI let alone IVF (cant say i blame him spose). But on the other hand he has made me really proud of the way he is choosing to deal with a really harsh problem within his family. I really thought he had/would wash his hands but has actually chosen to get stuck right in despite his very very strong personal feelings to run away and make like an ostrich. feeling the love very much.

nite nite all, bit late as think you are all abed already and its just me being a naughty stop up

Am on puffer-train (LEAVE ME TO MY FANTASIES, BITCHES!) back to Civilisation. . . Been frantically catching up and perceive we have new playmates. . . Hoopla! I'll be around to bully you for your lunch-money soon as. Meanwhile here's a platter of scones and clotted cream and Headbanger's own loganberry jam. salty my love, been following your tale but couldn't post. . . So sorry about the anxious-making news. You're being an utter brick. Candles will be lit in the East End, possibly even literally as well as metaphorically. More front me later. You missed me didn't you? Yeah. Totally. I can tell. Unspoken melancholy lurked 'neath every manful attempt at levity . . .

More FROM me, plainly. Ahem. Plainly this discreet sun-tan has affected my proof-reading abilities. . .

Did you see the tail-end of the last thread, HeadtheBaw? I got some good news

Honestly BESHes, I leave you alone for five minutes. Much as I love raising money for charity, a wankathon is not a good idea.

Welcome back HeadGirl, did you have a spiffing time?

I miss Dodgy too, twas left all unresolved.

Because of sadness and pacing elsewhere, I don't think we have had sufficient celebrations for Medee's BOC. So flipping HUUUURRRAAAYYYY!!!!!!!

Can you just do it very gently, MTF? Perhaps even without his knowledge?

I think I've missed the crucial time too, HO was away for 2 nights, although we did it before and after.

MEDEEEEEEEE!!!111!!111OMG!1111!!!1!!!! How Did I miss that?! Oh confabulations old thing, what fantastic news. Truly the MSDP gathers pace!

This gives new excitement to the fact that the OM and I shall resume SWI this month after 2 month hiatus [unaccountably nervous emoticon].

Lovely super duper time fanks Lyragirl. Too many cream teas though, plus also, I bought these herbal remedy cough sweets because I was hacking like a baccy-raddled sailor circa 1856, and ate about 6 or 7 a die (noe liez) and turns out they were 100 calories each. So not only was I troughing cider and cream tea and BBQs like tomorrow wasn't coming, I was also inadvertently consuming the equivalent of one extra main meal per day. Thus, I have the most wonderful jelly-belly imaginable, all achieved in just over a week. Happy to pass on this advice .

Been thinking of you lots Lyra. XXX

it was more than 5 minutes Lyra Waaaaaay more.

I agree that Medeeecaldoctor perhaps has not had a large enough celebration - perhaps now Headgirl is back we could have some sort of picnic? Maybe with some bunting? Oh please say we can!!

Mmmmm....cream teas...Yum. Bit sneaky on the part of the cough sweets Bangs&Oulfson what next? calorific mouthwash?

It bloocy was sneaky Salty, that is entirely the word. Perhaps I could sue ?

In other news, can a grown-up please tell me why the whole left side of my throat and roof of mouth is covered in white spots & ulcers? Can't be tonsillitis: not ill enough by a LONG shot. Thanks. Hurts like buggery to eat which might help in the aftermath of the cough sweet situ. But I am an Imaginative Woman and would like to know What The Matter Is. I personally think I am about to go down with TB.

...or quinsy....I bet they got quinsy in Malory Towers...possibly Scarlet Fever....or what was it that Beth had in Little Women

But Lyra, I've nearly finished painting my 'Bukkake Against Poverty' poster 'n everything...

(That poor woman's family. The tabloids are truly SCUM)

HEADGIRL! Have missed you sooooooooooo much

nice to meet you headbanginglady i will reserve banger based names for you and stick to sausage related monickers for chorizochica No lunch money here, but you are welcome to half a squashed cheese and pickle sandwich from my packed lunch.

anecdote from convo with OH last night re: SWIing and when/how often we need too (ie more frequently than previously, duh) He suggested we require a large batman stylee flood light mounted on the top of the house (with a sperm logo instead of a bat, of course) so i can switch it on when i OV and he can leg it home for some action. Made me laugh.

also found this on another forum and thought it was very BESH. perhaps there is room for such an annex in the gin palace?

Sounds like the Ague, Bangers

I want a spiffing picnic with mah BESHies to celebrate Medee's win! Will have to start calling you Bebee from now on

I done it at the right time (OVed Fri, so my work this cycle is done). TYF is driving me mental with his MIL-esque brand of cleaning in the bathroom(smother everything in cleaning products yet pay no heed to any logic of hygiene). Can someone else please explain to him that when you're cleaning the shelf where there's nail scissors, hair bobbles and my 'spensive unguents, the most logical place to temporarily relocate them when wiping is NOT, I repeat, NOT on the back bit behind the lowered toilet seat lid where his rank sticky man piss is? Arrrrrrgh!

There really needs to be a 'rolls eyes at men's stupidity' emoticon. Apparently he 'has' to put them there as he is 'working his way downwards' and I am a nagging cow with OCD. That's as may be, I replied, but it doesn't change the fact that you're a fucktard. HARUMPH!

I've just had to wipe them all carefully. So much for it being his turn to clean.

Sorry to be dull, but it's moan here or scream at him about him not having the hygiene sense of a child due to MIL being a freak (anymore than I have done already ).

scorpette i dont let the OH do that bathroom anymore, its pointless. OTOH I got told off this morning for 'stealing' the 'best' sponge scrubber thingy to clean the bathroom with as apparently it was reserved for kitchen cleaning (his domain) I told him invisibly labeling things is as much use as a chocolate teapot. ah domestic bliss.

ok..I have a blanket, Cold fizzy wine, a baguette and some cheese......

Scorpington I'm ok. Still spotting occasionally, but nothing much to report. I just have to wait it out til Friday, Grrr. Sounds like you Did Secks at the correct moment, no? Hope so!

thanks Headscratcher! And I do feel I have had lots of celebration, even when it was a sad time for others, but am happy to have a picnic. I've had to come back inside from gardening; think I am overdoing it.

I think you lot whose men actually do any cleaning should count your blessings... TG does not even wipe the kitchen surfaces after making toast and coffee. And he is incredibly messy. I do not understand how he makes toast and manages to deposit half a loaf of bread in crumbs all over the counter. And why can he not make coffee without slopping it all over the place? (And then he does not see because... get this... he is colourblind. In fact, this is the reason that he does not do any cleaning - he just can't see the dirt.
