I am 39w pg and dh and I have to travel to his home town to fill in some paperwork. the idiot has neglected to book us a hotel or even a B&B, we dont even know whether there is even a hospital nearby, at this rate I'll be giving rate in a bleddy barn!

part of me thinks he has done this on purpose (baby isnt his) AIBU to be flaming furious with him?

Call me a atheist troll hunter, but I don't believe your ex exists. It all sounds very far fetched. I think you're making up to give us mortals something to believe in for a laugh

twirlymum · 17/12/2010 18:39

I think the name Jesus is, well, ok. What about something else starting with a J? Joshua? Jedidiah? Oh, oh, I've got it!

Judas!

Your call though.

stillavirgin · 17/12/2010 20:19

twirly, I like it, but dh thinks its a bit sneaky, apparently theres a little lad called judas and he is a little tattle-tale.

digggers, im not i promise, cross my heart. unfortunately I have no way of proving it!

I'm not happy with you, my Girl. It's one thing convicing your Father that Joseph's the Father of your baby. Know your going on MN and Facebook saying it some else!!!! He's only just calmed down! We had a big row about it, he said it was all my fault letting you go out to collect water and talk to boys! He said it had something to do with my side of the family. Well! now he's fumming you'd better make it work between you and Joseph, my girl. I've been a saint to you and your brothers and this is how you pay me back. Your not doing this to get a council house are you love? Xmas Smile

stillavirgin · 18/12/2010 21:50

Im sorry mum, I had a moment! Joseph and I are rock solid, I promise. I promise that this baby and I will make you proud.

am getting a bit fed up now, donkey ride is playing havoc with my rear end and this desert's dusty!

don't worry, stilla, it'll be the bleak midwinter before you know it.

MumNWLondon · 18/12/2010 22:08

Well I guess you can get the baby's paternity tested once he is born..... maybe he is your Dh's after all!

re: virgin birth, I do know (lesbian) who gave birth and hadn't had penetrative sex.

Probably will hurt more if no pain relief in the barn!

If anyone offers you any gold, frankincense or myrrh say you only want it if it's ethically mined and/or organic.

scottishmummy · 18/12/2010 22:23

i hear the Bethlehem malmaison gets pretty stowed this time of year

Balthasar · 18/12/2010 22:40

Mary, have you any idea where you'll be staying yet? It's just we've got these presents to drop round for the wain. It's no trouble if me and the lads turn up right after the birth is it?

Balthasar · 18/12/2010 22:44

Come on woman, we've been travelling for six months!

tribpot · 18/12/2010 22:54

Balthasar, does your sat nav has the "Follow yonder star" programme? I hope so.

But you know YABVU to visit straight after birth, you should wait at least until 6th Jan.

stillavirgin · 18/12/2010 23:08

dh has been trying everywhere. the herody inn, Noahs ark, travellodging, premiere inn... but no cancellations.

balthasar, any chance of mothercare vouchers instead? Ive got my eye on a bugaboo!

You've got to feel a bit sorry for your DP though.

I hope the link works, the poster is from last year but I still love it.

scottishmummy · 18/12/2010 23:10

you dirty stop out up duff by another man,nae wonder yer man doesnt have bethlehem MangersRUs on speeddial

Balthasar · 18/12/2010 23:11

It's ok actually Mary, your baby-daddy says he'll give us some sort of sign to let us know when and where. I think he means on facebook?

p.s. we saw Herod today, he asked us to let him know when we find out where you are. He seemed very keen, I think he must have got you something really good from mothercare.

stillavirgin · 18/12/2010 23:12

Xmas Grin true. the father of my child is omnipotent, and he cant even arrange a hotel!

Seraphinandcherubim · 18/12/2010 23:14

we have been asked by the boss to visit some shepherds in the field about you, but as its so cold and snowy out, we were hoping that they might be lurking on here somewhere. Its far too nice by the fire to venture out onto some hill side.

If you are reading this, could you take a trip into town on Saturday next? Take a lamb with you, don't worry about the other sheep, they'll be fine this once.

Boy do i hope we don't have to do that singing and flying stuff, it really takes it out of you

scottishmummy · 18/12/2010 23:14

ask for white company gifts.not myrrh or oily shite

and dont be fobbed off by son of god rubbish either

Blu · 18/12/2010 23:16

Oh, you poor love - you seem to be getting a very rough deal for your one night of passion. I hope it was worth it and the sex was good - immaculate, even.

Give it another 2 millenia and the MAP will be invented to put a stop to this sort of shenanigans.

And, of course, Travelodge £19 deals.

stillavirgin · 18/12/2010 23:16

SM, he said he was ok with it, he'll be getting a sainthood after all! Xmas Grin

balthasar... hmmm. maybe ask him if we can collect from store instead?
