Swagger Inn Thread 71 - Wench like your life depends on it, which incidentally it does (if you're with the Cardnial)

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

Flings open doors dramatically..... (but looks a bit more cheerful than certain beardy sullen wall-leaners)

Lines up alcohol...

Musketeers at the ready....

Unleash the wenches....

Ds2 now has a temp too :(
Off to dr in the morning I think...sigh.

Awwww thanks badders that would be ace, if only! Snot levels here reaching critical. lyndie I could ask his after school CM but its not fair really on him, her or her other kids, seeing as he's not well enough to be at school. Ah well.

Hope the Team Athos wenches are enjoying themselves. A lot

I have watched the trailer. Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

Madame - what a twonk.

Hope all wench DC feel better very quickly.

There was other stuff knocking about in my brain but then I watched the trailer and it all melted away

I wonder if our team athos will tell the burketeers about here?

Evening all!!

I am a total blubbering wreck. Just got back from the hospice carol concert. Managed to keep it together in the service but I've just spent about half an hour just sobbing in the car. Big juddery shudders gulps. I've literally cried myself dry. And given myself a massive headache.

Too much emotion in the space of a few hours. Tom's vid, trailer, carols and .... my boy's passed his driving test. Which is a source of great joy and terrifying fear.

I need a drink.

Desperate for news from the wenchi!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Madame can you do anything from home? Put DS in front of TV and get some work done that way?

LetUs did you see/hear the Paella Nutella thingy on the radio yesterday?
Comtess Yay/eeeek for DS and his driving test. No he can play taxi while you watch S2!

comtesse, rehydrate, drink water, get rid of that headache! and well done to ds1 for passing his test!!!!

helen i really need to go in to get stuff done, tried to do a bit of emailing here today but it's not really what I need to be doing iyswim.

I do like queenies mad post-natal hair in the trailer. A touch of realism.

Comtesse...(hugs) I have ds1s carol service tomorrow. There will be tears.
Well done to your ds! :)
Madame...ds2s chest is quite rattly now and he is asthmatic so I'm thinking gp maybe Thursday if he still has a temp?
WHERE IN GODS NAME ARE THE CAROL CONCERT WENCHES?????

Madame, you know I haven't had anything to drink since mid afternoon!! Good call, will go and get some water down me. And then some red wine, Athos style . Sorry about your work situ, it's so tough isn't it.

Helen, how are you feeling?? Cough any better?

Badders, they've either exploded in utter excitement, or broken their phoned by pressing buttons to hard, or are back at TB's flat having post Carolling drinks

Badders I'm so tearful I've got them all rallying round here. Should do this more often. I do far too much of my feminist stance of calm and capable. This whole turning on the tears thing works very well!! MrC has just given me a huge cwtch without grabbing my arse, which is highly unusual...

Comtesse cough/cold stil lingering..... had horrible coughing-until-nearly-sick episode in the middle of the night, but (grabs huge hunk of wood to touch) I think it's starting to improve

TV thingy? About. Bloody time eh?
Well done on passing Comtesse's ds. Well bloody done.
Um.
RBNT.
As per....
Oooooh yes, nonny
Lovely bit of plot and a nice bit of snogging. Keep on keeping on though eh?

Yes badders if he's had a temp 2 days I would definitely gp it, best to check it out...

And yes on the one hand yay! Taxi free, he can shuttle his brothers around. On the other-hand, can't bear the thought of all of them being in car together in an accident. This is part of reason for juddering wreck.

Right, off to calm the fuck down and eat, drink and stop being a stupid irrational fool.

I don't know if it's because this week has now gone utterly tits up, that ds2 is ill again, that I just miss my dad, or that that mum is driving me to distraction, but I am feeling quite emotional and raw too ATM.
I guess this time of year is hard for so many for so many reasons.
The carol concert at the hospice must have been hard :(
AND NO UPDATES FROM WENCHES IS NOT HELPING!!

Badders that's the thing. Christmas is the best of times. But the worst of times for missing loved ones. And, sorry to plunge thread into this, but I'm so fucking humbled by the sheer fucking amazingness of people in the face of terrible things. It's literally heart shatteringly sad.

Right, where ARE THE WENCHES??? I need cheering up!!
(Actually off to eat) they better fucking be here when I get back ....

Yeah and nooooo Comtess re driving test. Get hydrated and have a breather.

Badders - get yourself into the Cwtch Cupboard

Helen - I heard some of it on the radio after zumba on my way to do some Christmas shopping. I didn't want to get out of the car . I've downloaded it on to iPlayer on my iPad to watch when I'm all by myself.

Finally caught up, I almost felt a bit stressed trying to juggle work, two needy cats and MN

The trailer

TB's message

I'm off to bed now. Night all

So wenches, I agree/disagree/am disgusted by/am well chuffed by all of the above as far back as page 8. 'K.

So, nativity is now done No sheep were harmed during the performance, the stable animals kept quiet and king 2 finally remembered to sit down. Only one hairy moment when star 2 got caught in snowflake 7's tutu and kept spinning to twinkle twinkle. Was totes hilaire.

Still not organised for Christmas, feel like a shit wench. I am excited by the trailer and whatnot but RL IS PROPER TAKING OVER AT THE MOMENT. I caps locked then and CBA to change it
