Swagger Inn Thread 69 - What could possibly go wrong she said?!

[CarolSinger200]

Oh well. Here goes!

Oooomph! For Anne and me

I'm more than happy to use one of my precious Tom Burke/Athos allowances for this gentleman. He has a rakish, slightly musketeer air - non?

Thanks apri. Just chrcking in. Been in the bike rude screamed at child in the street, now pucked up my free coffee from waitrose and iff to asda to buy a hat fir child and the xmas jumper for me .

Any wench in the tavern at the mo?

Nope.....still don't follow...

Evening lubbers

I really shouldn't be let out of the house - accidentally bought a gorgeous 1960s desk today which I really didn't need but which was soooooo lovely and which I can sit at pretending to be Lix Storm in The Hour. It just needs an ashtray on it, y'know for paper clips.....

Anyway, I like your lock down approach Comtess - I'm not doing anything else this evening until it's all wrapped and cards written .

Although I've missed all the trailer/promo pics shenanigans it does seem early for a trailer for 2nd Jan.

Right, off to wrap stuff and complete my Christmas playlist. Frank Sinatra followed by Rizzle Kicks anyone?

What you need mavis to go with the desk is Randy Randall Brown!

Have to make dinner and make a vague attempt to tidy the house. Think I'll have an early night after that.

Night wenches.

Night night Mouse. Hope tomorrow brings you better things.

Mavis . I'm thinking now of that Mad Men clip from eleventy hundred posts ago.

I'm fully prepped for lockdown Christmas tomorrow. Deployment lists started for all tasks. Only snag is that we have a 'do' at the rugby club tonight. Must NOT have hangover for tomorrow. Have just eaten preventative bread and latte to form a protective shield.

Have good evenings all

Just about to have a nice hot bath.
I've been a bit better lately thanks Apes, my back is improving which is typical as I now have a date for my spine appointment. I'm looking forward to christmas hols now. Need the horror of the nativity over. I do love it and get teary with the parents when I see how far they've come parents and children

My christmas card continues to make me smile, I love how there are people out there, who I may not have even met yet, who know me so well. Warms the vadge heart.

Two trees up. About a million family arguments. Fucking outside lights up (working) & then wires arranged (not working) & then taken down

Choc orange segments eaten. Disappointing lack of popping candy.

One Snowball drunk. Am just fishing out the cherry.

Chinese takeaway about to be ordered. Christmas album on.

AAAANNNNND it's Saturday night. Which means Aramis in his Santi hat & nothing else.

IT'S CHHHHHRRIIISSTTMMASSSSSSSS

Now all I need is that freaking trailer.

Oh & really, re those Spoiler TV pics? I still can't look then? I thought they'd be all right as Jess P said they're allowed.

God, abstinence is boring.

Well, you can, but.....

Actually, they are very spoilery, but they only make me want to watch it more. It looks brilliant.

Have DGS1 arriving shortly for a sleepover as his Mummy and Daddy are going out, so might not be around much. He doesn't go to bed early.

Will put the tree up today. Already had promised . Worst is i will need to rejig the furniture. Biught lovely decs in Asda though

Evening. Just got back from Family Christmas Party. Loveliest time. Off to read thread.

I have been dismantling Lego. So much Lego.

Snogs all round.

Evening wenchi

Been away for birthday fika at a friend. I had a tiny sip of chocolate/vanilla glögg (with alcohol) which was very tasty. The usual glögg you buy in the supermarket (without alcohol) can be so sweet, but this one was perfect! Unfortunately I had to drive home

Hope you feel better soon Mouse [glögg]

Off to eat some smoked salmon, yummie

TrailerMan just before Strictly has just said something about sticking around after the show for a look at the festive programmes (or something like that). Teeny tiny chance they'll show Musketeers? I highly doubt it though.

What time does it end?!

Death comes to Pemberly starts tonight, sounds interesting. Anyone seen it?

I have wrapped half my presents and am now watching a Christmas doctor who on BBC 3. All has so fast been done without alcohol although the wine rack is calling me. Must stay strong only one more week to go.

And after that Cheri is on, with Tom Burke

I enjoyed it Wicked. Hope you do too!

Strictly finishes probably about 8.10.

Stay strong Mavis

Evening all.

LetUs I've been tidying too. Why do all toys have tiny fiddly bits and why are they spread all over the house?

Mavis good work.

Watching Strictly. Caroline was amazing!

Elk thank you for Mr Perez down there. He is both hot and so friggin talented.

I haven't looked really sparks- well I clicked the site last night but it was clear it was spoilery so I didn't look.

I have ordered all presents today. DH just has to pick up pjs/clothes and I need to get them a new pad/pens etc from the stationery cupboard at work.

The Power of Love by Frankie goes to Hollywood is currently on the Christmas album. Possibly my fave Christmas song & I cannot TELL you what is going on in my head now. Yes it's indecent & yes it involves my rota night.
