Swagger Inn: Thread 93 - Carry on wenching, Musketeers ahoy!

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

Doors open for Thread 93. The bar is stocked, the floor is mopped. Unleash the wenches....

Here's some pretty to get us started

Off to a boring pensions thing tonight. Seemed like the right thing to do!!

Ooooh, are we doing aubergine tips? I fuckin love aubergines!

If your frying them, after cutting up, leave them in a colander with salt for a while so they lose some of their water. Rinse, pat dry, fry.

Hello nora!!!! Pourquois le french?

Yes, Chaise we went to the caravan about a month ago and got it all set up for the summer. We're not going this weekend because we have a Christening to go to, but will probably go the week after.

Bon soir Norah!

We're not camping any more I love it, but only DS2 will come with me & I can't put the tent up.

So I have a week carried forward from last summer at a fab Devon site....& nobody to go with...

To say nothing of the frigging hundreds of £ of equipment. And a great huge car that we bought to transport it all.

Hi fives Madame for her exquisite taste in vegetables. Apparently there are over 100 ways to cook aubergine in Turkey because a sultan loved them so much he challenged his chef to be creative.Karniyarik and imam Bayildi are to die fir

There ends the aubergine porn.

Sparks - I would love to say I would come with you for wench meet up, but the truth is I will be worse than a hindrance putting a tent up.

I think I cooked aubergine once in my life, don't think it turned out well though So thanks for all the suggestions

I love baba ganoush though, yummie

ScaredyCat just caught a bullfinch. I got her to drop it - it was still alive - got her & FancyCat unceremoniously back in the house (one under each arm, it was not elegant). And then as I went back out to put it somewhere safe to see if it would recover, a fucking magpie got it

Lyndsey, We store our caravan at the Inside Park, Dorset. Great site - Sparks has been there.
We go there for the 2 May bank holidays and another week at least in the summer.
It has an awning, a huge gazebo and huge beds that we have duvets fir. Is toast warm and we have made lots of friends so lots of chatting, Cups of tea in daytime, and tonnes of wine, round each other's camp fires in the evenings. I do like it.

We had our work pensions meeting yesterday. I am now known as pensions administrator. I am getting well into it (sad bint) . At least I'm learning something new. It's been a long time since I've had to learn anything new and I'm quite enjoying it.

I fucking love aubergines!
A question for exercise wenches...is cycling better then running if you have dodgy joints?
I have an old rugby knee injury and my back is also a bit dodgy...hmm.
I could cycle tomorrow and wouldnt need a special bra!

Right. I think we should seriously consider a wench camping trip with sparks's gear!

It would be carnage totes hilaire. Can you imagine how long it would take us to agree on how to put the tent up?

But then there would be prosecco and all would be fine.

anne thank you Im totally bookmarking that recipe page. Dp doesnt eat meat and cooking meals we can all eat is a total arse. Plus I love middle eastern food, it makes you feel so good and healthy.

bads I would give running a go first and see how the knee bears up? Cycling is lovely but unless you really cane it and go miles, its not exactly a full workout. Ive been cycling 24 miles a week for the past year and am far from peak physical fitness...

fancy magpies are the winged minions of satan.

I am just putting it out there that I will not be putting the tent up just do we are clear. I will be watching cackling sipping prosecco.

I am extremely good at tents and awnings. Regretting that statement. Already.

Bon soir toot le mond! Norah!!!!!!!!!!! Je also parle le Franglais, et j'adore wassisface who started le nonsense. Miles Kingston? Je crois so. Somewhere dans le mainson Je have 'Le Frangalis Leuitenant's woman' which is tres hilaire.

Elk murky buckets pour le feu extinguisher, tres thoughful, et aussie useful Je have tidied up le loft de hay. It was un peu stupid to take Athos de-le-grand-bang up there mais all was d'accord dans the end. The Feu n'est pas caused trop to damage, et vous would never savez it happened, except pour le scorch marks.

Badders hope the tooth is ok now, did you play rugby too?

Off to put DS' bedroom light out/eat/work etc

My Internet has gone all shit again.

I was about to post a pic of DS1s iPad. I have just used it to order indian and when I picked it up I was greeted by a pic of Athos!! Of course the app doesn't allow pics.

Gives Anne position of co-ordinator, re tent set up on wench-camp.

Dh and I have seen some couples having mighty rows, during tent/ awning set up.

Which reminds me, do you remember about the couple I told you about last year , whilst camping? she had a very strong Devon accent and she said to him:
"you are use-lass. fucking use-lass". was the funniest thing the funniest row I ever saw.

Errrrrrr....

chaise.

You're on for wench camp. I know exactly how to erect, it's just the physical strength required for mammoth tent.

Wench camp would be brill. We could just eat dips & crisps as meals & spend the entire time in a haze of sun & prosecco.

Aubergine porn

Wench camp - less physical effort than boot camp :)

ok - chaise is the chief engineer.

sparks is in charge of maintaining erections.

anne is the project manager and prosecco and aubergine quartermaster.

I literally cant think of anything Id be good at on a campsite but Id give moral support to all.

Madame I will prob need an assistant.

My house is freezing!!!!

My food hasn't arrived.

Nothing on TV. Watching Escape to the Country.
