Swagger Inn Thread 109. The Back to School & Back to Wenching Thread

[SparklesRedHotChileLeather]

It's a new term so early to bed for the little darlings & back to the Muskeperving for us wenches. New pupils always welcome if you are taking Musketeers A-Level. You 4 new boys in leather can come & sit at the front where I can keep an eye on you And no guns in class. Now FOCUS you lot.

Morning wenches.

Squidge Madame and how far did you get with JR before you were woken up?

Mouse I'm squeezing your hand tightly. He'll be just grand and later today you'll be super proud of him and yourself.

Badderz - sick bay for you young lady. Go on, Doctor Athos will be making his rounds soon.

Another ep9 picture. Even from the back - phwoaaarrr

Morning

Am off to to a technical update course today & my stomach is gurgling away most unpleasantly, it's been slightly 'off' for about 2 weeks now & I am getting fed up with it.

Pleased to hear you had a good chat last night madame, even if it wasn't the outcome you wanted

I've washed my hands well I promise!

Madame [cwtch]

Mouse we've got you and not to worry, I have washed them since clearing up this morning's cat sick/hairball...

Madame glad you're feeling a bit better this morning, though about the dream

Fancy good luck with the update

Is everywench out of the hayloft yet? I need to do a bit of a clear-out in there, it's getting a bit icky inplaces.

Ah sod it, I'll doooo iiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttt after the school run.

He's gone. The bus staff were so lovely. But it's so quiet without him. He was so small in his uniform

Oh mouse.
I wish I could give you a big hug.
Was he excited?
my kindle just corrected that to executed!!!
Feeling rough. Told ds1 last night about his asthma meaning he can't be a pilot.
He cried :(
Dh and I have explAined he can still learn to fly but....He's heartbroken.
Poor kid.

He was badders but his little face just crumpled when realised we weren't getting on the bus with him.

Oh badders poor ds. A private pilots license is still there and he can work on the planes. There are options but it must be so hard for him and you right now.

Morning

Before I get to work clean out the hayloft, here's some pretty for you from JP's twitter...

Did the Porthos picture come up as well? Blue seems to be a theme here - the pauldrons seem to be edged in blue, as well as this shirt

Mouse how about you relax a bit now and have some much deserved 'me' time?

Badders - sorry about DS Mine was getting upset last night because he wants to build a time machine.

Oh mouse I hate it when their faces do that, it just cuts you :( I'm sure he will be ok.

badds poor DS1. On the plus side, he is young and has got lots of time to dream new dreams.

madame

Still no period. Feel like utter, utter shit. We are going to mum and dad's this weekend, which will be nice. I get a couple of days off having to remember to do everything.

Glad you have at least had the conversation Madame.
Are Bad's children still roasting in the oven?

I don't know what to do with myself. It's so quiet.

Nope...they are all done obs :) and this morning I nearly "executed" TM! Perhaps I shouldn't be around children :)
The convo sort of segued into a chat about exams and subjects and what to do after gcses which I know is making him anxious. He has only just started year 8 fgs! So much pressure on our young people. It's awful.
I have reassured him he can stay at home as long as he likes but it might mean wiping my bottom one day. He found this a mix of hilarious and disgusting but promised he will visit and bring me presents :)

Mouse...can you go out? For a coffee, a run, walk?

for Madame, Mouse, Badders and any other wench in need.

Latest news on the duvet:

I took it in last night and hung it up in the lobby which is a perspex covered room off the kitchen and where I do my ironing, sewing, treadmilling etc. It gets really hot in there when the sun's out so it will air today. I had the last one dry-cleaned at Johnsons. They charged me £22 and they ruined it. It's on the bed now. It does the job but it's all lumpy and looks a mess.

'king hell. how am I supposed to work if DH hogs the phone? That's why he has a blackberry and skype for his work calls

Now I'll just have to look at pretty pictures instead

Lol badders. I'll be alright. The quiet is very nice.
And you sound like a hilarious mum.

Loving the duvet update.

Aaaw I just got a lovely call from TMs preschool. He's settled fine and no crying. Has made friends and ate all his snacks. No problems at all.

He even waved when he saw the preschool leader and apparently 'you'd have thought he'd been there for months'

Morning. Naaaaaw, that's lovely they rang you Mouse, now go do something enjoyable because he will be back before you know it.

Madame I had DS at 38, with no intervention needed (unlike previous pregnancies ). They won't have dried up yet, promise. Pleased you talked to him.

I'm going to have to read W&P now aren't I?

Mouse that's excellent news - so pleased for you. Now, RELAX!!

MrsB I', holding out on W&P untl after it's aired on the basis that if I'm already familair with the characters it will help me get past the first few chapters of "Who? Where Eh?' ness of it all. #Lazy/FMLackOfShortTermMemory

Tm is back and all smiles. He stroked the bus after he got off and waved to the driver. His diary is full of positive stuff and they've offered him music therapy and the attention autism program to sign up for.

I am really hopeful for him and the future.

He's now gone off to tell granny about his day. Thank you wenches for putting up with my nerves and silliness today.

Brilliant - well done TM

Awwwww ace mouse! So pleased. Bless him. And no more of that about being silly please!

General to wenches and to mouse and badderzzzz ds1.

letus not v far at all but it was looking so promising! I was at some event thing that JR was at. He was looking a bit short strange cos he had longer hair, like in the film he made about a serial killer. He spoke to the crowd and then zoomed off in a car but I had somehow [dream vagueness] been given a message from him his hotel room number AND THEN SHE WOKE ME UP AND I NEVER GOT TO FIND OUT WHAT IT SAID!!!!

Lovely :)

Aww Mouse that is lovely, I'm so glad it went well. How lovely of them to phone and let you know he was ok :)
