Dh wants to say something:-

He says, "I'm not witty, or funny, but wanted to thank you all again for all the help you've given both of us" Thanks

He's right Shock that's not funny or witty!

No, but it's still lovely.

DejaVuAllOverAgain · 28/01/2014 22:44

Don't worry about it Wing Grin

I posted thinking I'd got to the end then realised I'd missed a load of posts Blush I skim read them but seem to have missed something as I'm trying and failing to work out the 15/15 1/2/18 1/2 references Confused Can someone enlighten me pls.

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 28/01/2014 22:50

Dangerous, that's because he is definitely very lovely :)

Deja, it's the years between eldest dc and youngest dc.

DejaVuAllOverAgain · 28/01/2014 22:58

Ah, right, then I definitely lose, there's 19 months between my two. They're both over the age of 18 though if that counts for anything.

MiscellaneousAssortment · 28/01/2014 23:05

Right you bloody scheming, manipulative, millionaire, bastard come over here whilst I bash you on the nose with my twee little fist!!!

Realises that may seem harsh treatment for a horse infested funny lady with pnd. It's the tough love policy :)

I'm totally coming for the fuck fest whenever it happens. I'll bring scooter decorated with fake plastic flowers and vines. Possibly rigging up some trellis to drag behind me. Oh oh oh! I just thought... We neeeed a maypole!!!

mistlethrush · 28/01/2014 23:09

I've only got one so there's no gap. Sad
But, according to a friend with 3 children, mine is like having 3 children on his own - so possibly its a good thing that there's only one of him!!!

Mouldypineapple · 28/01/2014 23:11

Can I join the insane club? I've got 18.5 years between me and DD1, then 18.5 years between DD1 and DD2 - and none in between! Do I win??

nickymanchester · 28/01/2014 23:11

Ooh, attic will do nicely Grin I could be the madwoman Wink

Deja, nice literary reference Smile

Oops, I don't know if I got the right reference. I thought it was Rebecca at first but now I'm guessing Jane Eyre?

BlackeyedSusan · 28/01/2014 23:13

there is/was a madwomanintheattic on mn. I think she may hve nmechnged...

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 28/01/2014 23:13

Mistle, he sounds like he'd get on brilliantly with ds2. They can tear around the field together and get good and muddy. :)

Deja, you are sensible. :)

Misc, I love your tough love. And we do ! We do need a maypole !!

OP posts:
FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 28/01/2014 23:15

Mouldy :) you win a straight jacket. I have inbetweeners, so I don't really count.

Nicky, yup :)

Susan, there was, wasn't there? Twas a good name.

OP posts:
Mouldypineapple · 28/01/2014 23:19

Ha! I've always quite fancied a straightjacket! I'll wear it to the party!! And DD1 can film it all, she's good at that. Although I suspect I won't be the only one there who is a bit barmy!

DejaVuAllOverAgain · 28/01/2014 23:22

Yes, it's Jane Eyre.

I vaguely remember seeing someone with that name on mn, remember thinking cool name.

AlpacaPicnic · 28/01/2014 23:26

I made a solidarity cheesecake tonight, and I will think of you and your poor displaced squatter horsies as I eat an ungodly amount of it tomorrow!

I am also 'kind of' welsh! I know how to sing the national anthem in welsh for use during rugby matches, I call the microwave the poptyping... and I find that if I'm feeling blue, then googling pictures of Leigh Halfpenny makes me feel much better!

My favourite rubbish joke is - a man walks into a doctors with a frog on his head. The doctor looks at him, sighs and says 'what's the story here then?'

And the frog says 'well, it started out as a wart on my arse!'

Gwan... Google pictures of Leigh halfpenny.... You know you want to! I hope you have a good day tomorrow :)

Lj8893 · 28/01/2014 23:51

Right, I meant to go to bed at 10pm. And then I got into reading the first thread, so I'm placemarking shamelessly on this one.

Now I better go back to page1 and read all 28 pages of this one.

I'm glad tomorrow isn't a busy day.

steppemum · 29/01/2014 00:01

oh another mad 10 year old drummer, I will bring ds and they can let loose together.

Just to say, I am sharing that attic if it rains OK?

(I think I am too old and creaky for the field, I'll leave the kids in the tent and find a nice bed in the attic. I promise not to light any candles though)

Jux · 29/01/2014 00:05

We also have thumb pianos! And a nose flute, but I have no idea where it is.

I can also bring a couple of violins - one rather nice full size, not an Amati or Strad sadly Grin, and one 1/4 size which the toddlers could have a go on. Violins make an horrific noise until you learn how to use the bow properly, so we could hand them to small children for the duration. It might frighten the horses, so they really would have to be gone. I also have a 'silent bass' which is very beautiful. I could tie it to the car roof for transportatin, as I don't think there'll be enough room inside.

Do you have a generator? It would be nice to bring some of dh's classic guitars so everyone can have a go - there's over twenty of them. They're all electric, so if there's no generator, I'll leave them behind. Unless we can run a feed from UW's supply?

Bogeyface · 29/01/2014 00:43

Jux A dynamo could work, so all you would need is a big fast animal and a ....oh, wait....

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 29/01/2014 09:01

Mouldy, I suspect you might be right Grin

Deja, glad I got it right. God I loathed studying that book.

Alpaca, good old halfpenny every 6 nations dh looks at me like this Hmm as I shout "make that a full penny!" Embarrassingly at the screen.

Lj, I pity anyone who has to trawl through all this! Good luck!

Steppe, that's fine, I'll leave a torch out.

Jux, thumb pianos? Nose flutes?! What devilry is this?

I think someone offered a generator at some point. If not I'm sure we can run a power lead out just for the guitars :)

Violins? Silent bass? We're getting very upmarket now.

Bogey Grin we'll just have to make do with NO big animals, and lots of dcs.

Will there be a VIP are at the festival - like at Glasto?

mistlethrush · 29/01/2014 09:19

Morgause - there will be - its the field (I'm not sure where the non-VIP bit is though)

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 29/01/2014 09:23

Morgause, I like your thinking... Mistle is right. There will have to be some small area that isn't VIP... The loos?

OP posts:
Morgause · 29/01/2014 09:32

I was thinking winnebego. With all mods cons. And room service.

JerseySpud · 29/01/2014 09:37
