*****@@*****BERRIE, BINKLE, OGGS, LYRA AND ZEB - THE ALL NEW SOON-TO-BE-REALISED LONDON THEATRE MEET-UP THREAD*****@@*****

[binkleandflip]

Here we are!!

Anybody else beginning to panic yet?

Have been debating merits of diy style liposuction utilising my Henry hoover...

I'm not panicing yet, I'm just in denial about thinking about the logistics. I'll worry about that on the morning of Wed 30th. Oooh, it IS Wed 30th we've got tickets for, isn't it?

Panicing doesn't look right. How DO you spell that?

Panicking.

I still haven't sorted out childcare for the 30th...

I'm really struggling to stay awake today. Poor DS2, I should be taking him swimming or something but I'm just too knackered. It doesn't help that DP's in China and India till next week.

China & India? Makes Milan sound very dull!
Lyra, just give in to the snoozles and fall asleep on the sofa.

DH is worn out with hoovering bless him

I'll send him up to you with it shall I Oggs?

Poor Lyra...I should go to bed at Berie time tonight if I were you!

I will be going to bed very early indeed. These bloody pills are zombifying me. I really hope it improves soon.

Can you send dh round to hoover my stairs? They're in a shocking state. Haven't got the energy to do anything about it.

Oh dear, we are in a bad way on this thread at the minute aren't we

Berrie's poorly back, a sedated Lyra and a slightly singed Oggs!

Hopefully, we will all be back at full strength for a week (A WEEK!!!) on Wednesday.

What are your plans for the evening? Quiet night for me - dh in London for the evening and dd at grandma's, just got the gym at 8 and that is about it.

Lordy, that sounds a bit strenuous for a Friday night...I really really couldn't make myself go out at 8pm, it's nearly bedtime.

Lyra, I would send him round but he says our stairs are shocking too and...he's about to get his plane out...

Tonight I shall listen to my new cd, watch echo beach because I love to see Cornwall...that's about it...that's if the road that floods isn't still closed meaning DH can't get to flying club.

Did anyone see Grand Designs? That house was vile, it was like a prison. I was going to say can you imagine looking out of the window to see the new family playing in your old garden but they can't look out of the window can they...

I missed echo beach last week. Was it good?

Echo Beach? Yes, a true evocation of life in Newquay. Ha ha ha ha ha!

Actually, it's all right as long as you watch it with Moving Wallpaper (which is funny), otherwise it's totally dire.

I didn't see Grand Designs but did anyone see Kirsty and Phil this week?! The woman had her DH wrapped around her little finger.

I saw Grand Designs, wasn't keen on the prison house especially when the polystyrene walls started rotting the minute it rained.
The Location woman was a real yummy mummy, wasn't she. Far too glam.

Nobody ever builds their houses out of plain old bricks and mortar on Grand Designs. They're always using some experimental material that's never been tried in the UK before.

I sometimes imagine some of you are like those women on those two episodes...quite unlike anyone else I know...

That woman on Relocation was V. annoying, it wasn't like she even had to lift a paintbrush! Can you imagine her having to walk on bare earth around her house for years like Zeb has to ?

Oops, that reads back that I think you are very annoying...not on here you're not, I meant I worry that in RL you might be so unlike me I'll feel ill at ease but I guess we'll find out next week!

I missed the Moving Wallpaper bit last time but just caught Echo Beach. Can't get that song out of my head for days afterwards! I still enjoyed it

Nah! I just wanna be like that woman, just like the fab Kirsty! - not having to do a thing, then decide on the day of completion that I've changed my mind . We couldn't decide in the office if he had had an affair and was desperate to appease her, or if she was suffering from PND so he was trying to make her happy!
