My first ever swagger inn thread.

Oh Apricot :(

will be needed to treat the shock...

Waiting for my web thingy to start...

Oh goodness apricot, I hope you're feeling ok now?

How about badders & ww, feeling any better?

I'm fine, thanks Fancy

That's good ww

It's beautifuuly sunny here - FancyCat is snoozing in the sun. I have paperwork to do, but feel like joining her!

apes! Are you ok?

Sun is out here now as well. Though there's some interesting looking clouds floating about.

Hope apes and wicked are ok?
Back to dentist tomorrow. Think I'm going to have to to have this tooth out. :(

lunch/washing/school-run/swimming

Laters.........

Thanks for the concern wenches, I'm fine. There'll probably be a couple of weird bruises tomorrow.

Bads is it at the back? I had a back molar that kept getting infected and I got fed up of it and asked the dentist to take it out. If it can't be put right you're better off without it.

It's a molar but a front one :(
It's going to have to go. This has been going on since April!
Abx are making me feel like shit too.
Sigh.
Dh back tomorrow and I'm back at dentist at 12.40
Hope all wrenches are ok. Sorry for moaning

Where taf is comtesse going???

And how can we stop her???

Oh dear Apricot. Hope you are OK now.

And Baddz, I hope all went OK at the dentist.

Fancy, I love that picture. What is it from?

I am away with work (again). Did a "Dad from the mobile phone advert" impression, telling DD a bedtime story over the phone. Not as good as being there, of course, and I really miss her when I'm away. Did I tell you that at the moment she always has to have an Aramis story? But like all previous genres of bedtime story in our house they have got pretty silly.

I watch s2 ep 10 last night. Love pretty much all of it, obviously. I do quite enjoy the comedy Spaniards in s 2, silly as they are, especially Vargas in ep 10. "Mere paid is nothing" and the classic "Spain thanks you for your service".

Certain Aramis scenes do always have to be repeated over and over, of course.

Eh? What's that about comtess?

I have no idea where the Aramis pic is originally from morelike - I found it on the Musketeers Signal Tumblr. They have some nice pics on there!

After not feeling particularly PMSish for the last few months, this month is back to the old routine it seems. I have lost patience with stuff & am listing on ebay like mad today. I kicked butt on Coutdown last night - always a sign I'm pre-menstrual!

Must go & feed the DC, laters

I hate PMS. I always get it. For some reason it also makes me feel exhausted as well as grumpy, miserable etc.

You're right. I like this one.

Comtesse tweeted that she should be away until 31th of October

I've been having some trouble with my washin machine, it's been moving around and stoppped working but I think I secured it now. I did a wash now and watched it like a hawk and all went well

Feeling a bit meh, feel like my life is so messy right now. Thankfully I work the last day tomorrow and then I have two weeks vacation I want to clear out a lot of crap and bring some order in my life.

Glad you are better Apricot.
Like WW, I was sick this morning, but mine was due to a diabetic pump failure and thus very high blood sugars.
Hope you feel better WW. Are you packing?

Evening all

WTAFisComtess (her new name, btw - I've decided) is off being extremely busy and will return on 31st October - so she tells me. All is madly busy chez Comtess and she's avoiding internet/social meeja purely so she has more time to try and fit everything in.

She's also mucked up her MN log-in and can't be arsed with getting it working again, or she's have sent this herself.

< Mynd Cymru!!> etc

* this message (and some dodgy Welsh internet translations) was brought to you by SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp on behalf of WTAFisComtess ***

Will be back later.... hopefully. or not. Might have an internet-free night. Unlikely mind, because Dh says he has to work.

Obs no more puking and no packing yet, although I'm planning what to pack in my head

obs all ok now?

morelike awww for missing dd. I love that you tell her aramis stories! Do you make them up, or are you going through the plot lines of the show?

^That last Arapic is indecent.

And much much appreciated.

Making them up! We started off springing Aramis from the Monastery and we had some about the war with Spain, but we have also had various episodes involving tracking down spies (including English spies with Marmite and an umbrella) and recently Aramis has gone for a jaunt on a pirate ship. And other adventures involving saving various villagers and people in distress.

Common themes however are that Dog stubs his toe and cries for his Mum, Porthos is hungry and Athos loses his hat. These usually have to come up at some point.

love to all the poorly, falling over, bad tooth members. I've just eaten an entire grab bag of minstrels......it was so needed. Thinking of getting caught up with this programme before the next season starts then i think of all the other things that i'm not managing to get done....then i remember that i basically dont have free time either.

All who would like to be in the relaxing corner i am offering relaxing massages this evening provided by topless hotties.....what you do once the massage is finished is totally up to you

I thank you, I thank you.

Not great start to promotion as forgot about meeting with new line manager as one-to-one with a postgrad student over-ran. Have sent apologies by email

Hugs and smoothing remedies to apes, bladders and ww

Evening

to all poorly wenches. I get productive when pre-menstrual, just don't stand still too long around me or you'll end up dusted, polished, binned or Freecycled!

I love the sound of those stories morelike - especially the ones involving English spies! Lovely Aarmis pic btw - that's what I call a look of real intent.

Thanks for passing on the message from comtess, helen
