Swagger Inn Thread 67 – Wenches, just ddooooooo iiiiiiit

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

Mops floor, wipes bar, cleans the empties, throws open doors and locks self in cellar with Musketeers...

Yay! Delivery has arrived. Faith is restored. Really ought to get on with stuff. Laters.

DS2 has a friend round. He sounds so happy

My house also a tip. Dishwasher on every day so at least dishes are clean.

On the basis of that evidence, I'm not even Hilda Ogden am I? Bet her house was clean. I'm clearly one if those slutty 1950s types who lazes about in her underwear and "entertains" inappropriate beardy men.

I aspire to be margot from the good life...I would love to swank around in a kaftan and turban and harass tradespeople :)
We are now watching monsters inc.

I bloody loved Margot

"Harass tradespeople"

I aspire to be a strumpet like Barbara.

Can you imagine being a 50s housewife ? Even in the late 70s it took my Mum most of the day to do the laundry in her twin-tub hotpoint. I wonder if people in the 50s and earlier changed their clothes less often because laundry was such a huge chore ?

Evening all! Finally caught up. I did have lots to say as I was going along but have promptly forgotten it all. Let's get the house stuff out of the way first;

1. My house has hit embarrassing level, you know, when if a neighbour popped round I'd have to pretend I wasn't in. I feel like it's slippers only in the house, not bare feet (shameful)
2. Washing - probably 5 loads a week not including bedding (depends if anyone's pissed)
3. Dishwasher, every other day and DH always reloads it and crams stuff in which I then end up hand-washing FMDH (serious offer)

And now to the wenching...
I'm loving the chrimbo name-changes, sparks and mrsbee are on fire with ideas. letus, did you try 'letussnowletussnow....' Sounds familiar, sparks probably thought of it, I liked that one.

Well, norah and I had a fab time last night perving over men from bedroom wall days, it seems we could have shared a room.

Right, I'm off to find photos.

Hello Boys

I really like these

LetUs - I got to say I think Steve is going home. :-(

Flops - that is a lovely set of pictures. I do so love them. DS1 asked about series 2 today.

Steve just isn't enjoying it anymore is he? :(

The duke of savoy is in Atlantis tonight

Ooooh lovely frock

Not watching Strictly live due to football and assisting DS2 with Lego.

I think Steve might be going home tonight also. I'd hate to have to dance a jive and it's especially difficult when you've got a fused ankle that doesn't move like what Steve has. I think I'll offer to kiss it better.

Love those Wicked!

How many weeks do we think to Musketeers?

Wanders in, Waves to wenches.
I have done washing, been out with DH and DS, laid and lit a fire, and that's about it.

Off to do DS bed time now.

Oh I have a similar ankle problem - made for each other.

But more for this man

House shit first

Washing ahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa. Like sparks I wash for 7, with a filthy 3 yr/o, a 7 yr who gets food everywhere, a smelly teen who likes playing football so is muddy. I reckon 3 a day including weekends. Beds as and when, towels as and when.
Housework is fairly hit and miss, the floors, bogs, sinks, kitchen gets done everyday. At least once. Tidying up is sweeping the crap on the floor into a pie to be sorted (toys etc) sort about the sofas etc everyday. Proper make it look really nice and neat never happens is done for special occasions.
Dishwasher is twice a day.

Now back to perving.

Gawd floppers we'd never have left our bedroom would we?

Delaying tactic at bedtime number 38254,9147446 (b);

Must find something, anything to take to bed. If said item isn't found there will be no sleeping and lots of noise.

So, bearing this in mind, do you know what The Toddler decided, after leaping out if bed insisting he needed something, so he can sleep?
The hoover brush. The one you use or don't in my case to hoover upholstery.

It is tucked up in bed next to him.

Norah

Norah

Drinking wine, I'm so happy

Evening all. Working this afternoon so I'm spent! Norah I know exactly what you mean! DD2 has to find that one dolly that you haven't seen for a week! I have RBRN and am lying on the sofa was Strictly with DS. I think Steve could be away this weekend too. I love Caroline, she's foxy!
