So far so good....Fifteen didn't kill me. And I think for tomorrow, the best idea is to just text me where you are.
Packing?! Ha ha ha...later I think.

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 18:57

Weather forecast for tomorrow is dry and bright
Bad news is it's going to be wet and windy on Thursday so those of you staying over don't plan to do too much outdoors.

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 18:57

Zeb, how was the food at Fifteen?

oggsfrog · 29/01/2008 20:07

Just about to start organising/packing/making list for dh.
Debating the wisdom of having a whisky and ginger while I do it.
Bath and earlyish night I think. Dh is taking me to the airport so we need to be up at 6.30 and leaving here at 7.30 latest. Dd is coming too and dh will drop her at school on the way back.
Don't know what to do about jacket... the one I dyed came out a lovely blue but all the bloody stitching remained orange

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 20:15

I dyed DS1's coat blue and the stitching stayed browny orange. It looks quite nice.

binkleandflip · 29/01/2008 20:25

Oh good Lyra, so we are meeting in the afternoon and collecting Zeb around 6? At least I know I wont get left behind seeing as I am ticketwoman!!

So, I am going for jeans I think - nothing too fancy, I think I'd rather feel comfy than all trussed up and un-natural. Bizarre to think we will all be face to face tomorrow - but really exciting

I've decided I must have a cocktail. I've only ever had one and that was 23 years ago.

binkleandflip · 29/01/2008 20:47

only one??

Oggs, you have gone to the trouble of dying your hair for this trip not too mention the marathon cross-country incredible style journey you are undertaking that would put Scott of the Antartic to shame - that deserves multiple cocktails in my humble opinion

Don't forget my selflessness in cultivating spots and gaining weight so that you all will look fabulous next to me

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 21:15

oggs.
You've reminded me again - time for my face pack. DP's going to get a shock when he gets home.

Zebedeedoodah · 29/01/2008 22:15

Sooo, Oggs has done her hair, Lyra's done the face pack, Binkle's gonna do a runner with the tickets to the highest bidder, and Berrie's just been playing with pants all day .

OK, fess up, I did a face pack too, then watched Mistresses .

But I'm going to be the last to turn up, and you'll all be [pissed] firm friends by the time I arrive. . Not to mention DH who tells me that he'll 'send an intern' with the keys if he can't leave early. I AM threatening him with death if I'm not on the Strand by 6pm. Are you allowed to ask interns to babysit?

Oh, and Fifteen was absolutely wonderful, even if I did have to sit next to our MD.

I'm now going to go to bed and dream of Lee in a loincloth.

Berrie · 29/01/2008 22:20

Oh I didn't get time for any Lee lering to get me in the mood...
Will have to pack tomorrow methinks...

Berrie · 29/01/2008 22:22

Bed time...see you tomorrow...REALLY!

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 22:32

Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgggghh!!!!

binkleandflip · 29/01/2008 23:00

See you tomorrow everyone!!

  • in a good way

oggsfrog · 30/01/2008 06:53

See you all later

LyraSilvertongue · 30/01/2008 08:51

Well, the forecast said dry and sunny but so far it's wet and grey

Berrie · 30/01/2008 08:53

I'm scared...

LyraSilvertongue · 30/01/2008 09:00

Me too.
Now reassure me again, you're not a knife-weilding maniac.

Berrie · 30/01/2008 09:09

I'm not...and you are not a bearded man with rope? ? [grin}

LyraSilvertongue · 30/01/2008 09:45

I might be...

Berrie · 30/01/2008 09:52

Right, I'm off in 20 minutes...better get your rope supple!

Berrie · 31/01/2008 15:26

I'm back...odd to talk to you all again now I know what you are like!
Hope everyone got back safely, thanks for a great time!
Speak to you soon.

Oh poor you! You Oggs and Lyra had awful journeys then. I was lucky!
I was really tired yesterday and slept on the sofa when I got home. Every so often I would hear one of the children saying, 'Mummy's snoring!'
