Swagger Inn Thread 110. Duvet watch 2015, highbrow literary discussions and hbfs amongst other things

[JacobFryesTopHatLackey]

My first ever swagger inn thread.

I did RTFT!!! I didn't understand it but I do now, must have been tiredness or lack or caffeine or something!!!

Ouch Apricot do look after yourself.

Good luck at the dentist Badders are you going to end up with an implant or something or do you not know yet?

LetUs I'll PM you the link to the tablet/laptop after the weekend. We've just bought a desktop for the DC to use and put it on a wheeled trolley desk so it can be moved around the house as needed.

Fancy I'm going to lounge around the spa and try all the different rooms and pools and then have a facial and a massage. Skin is very confused after recent events, and shoulder and neck are killing me so I'm looking forward to getting that sorted too but I think that's to do with heavy work bag on that shoulder all the time so maybe need a longer term solution to that too.

Elk is the computer ok??

Has everyone started their new jobs then or still waiting?

I heard the Dalek announcement on the tube last night on the way home from work. Sad that the speaker quality is such that I couldn't actually tell what was being said

Dalek announcement?

Dalek announcement?? Is it for dr who? When is the first ep? Where is liv? liv we need you to provide dr who updates for us!!

No lyndie sadly I haven't started yet, just found out I am not being "released" (apt term) until oct 13. Gnyyaaaaaarrrrr.

How is everyone today? Anyone seen mouse or norah lately?

!st (appropriate typo) Episode is tonight Madame

Mouse was about yesterday morning, but not since; Norah on Tuesday

I have found this though - Plates v slates: the backlash against gimmicky serving dishes Was it Mavis or LetUs who had the rant about food being serves on plates?

I may have been a bit unproductive today...

Hello, I'm here. Just busy with the mice. TM has come home.

Hi Mouse

Am having really tedious day with work - nothing but problems cropping up and nothing getting done Do you think it would help if I crawled back under my duvet and pulled it over my head?

Helen it was LetUs with the sleerrt. That article is hilarious. My particular hate is food served on wood. Even if it's varnished I'm never sure that it's clean. And chips that come in little metal containers.

Well, I've got two loads on the line and now have ominous black clouds floating overhead. FMW

We had sunshine, now we have ominous clouds. I didn't do any washing even though the basket is full.

Hi Wenches

Not feeling very wenchy today. DH is pissing me off in various ways and I'm just in a massive grump.

Lyndie that sounds heavenly, that is exactly what I need. In fact I'm going to go and book a facial now while that reminds me. And done

Yes what Darlek announcement? I've seen nothing and DH hasn't mentioned anything either.

Looking forward to the rugby this evening, might get a bit drunk and see if that cheers me up!

Well.
I put a load of washing out before I left and it's pissed it down. Grr.
The dentist has shaved some more off the tooth in the hope it settles down. I am not hopeful. I bought myself a big cake from the bakery to make me feel better.
Just off to get ds2 - he will be so excited to see Dh :)
Had a lob,he jot bath earlier and thought of wicked in her bathless state :(
Nice to have Dh back. He has already hung 2 new pics for me :)
Laters x

Afternoon

That sounds lovely lyndie, esp the massage part - I love a massage. Hope it helps with the shoulder & neck.

Brilliant article helen - I will allow chips in metal baskets at a push. But food on wood or slate annoy the hell out of me. I doubt I'd turn down Prosecco chilled in a welly mind

No reason

OMC!!!!

Hope you have a great spa weekend Lyndie. Dead jealous.

Ds2 has come home complaining of headache and he had a temp.
Gave calpol
He now wants to go to his swimming lesson.
Ffs.
NO ONE has DC who are ill as often as mine are!
It's ridiculous! He has had a head cold since going back to school.
I just want to go to bed and just not worry about anyone...just for 24 hours. How lovely that would be.

TWO WEEKS VACATION

I sometimes think I live in a circus!! DCs and cats make it feel that way when I'm tired and they are up to mischief.

badders I really hope it helps this time with the tooth. ww woo hoo to vacation!

Erm will read back the rest and catch up.

A spa weekend! I want a spa weekend!

A spa weekend! I want to go on a spa weekend! (Except need a week off work either side as otherwise would miss the dc).

fancy you know you are my picture / gif selecting and posting heroine.

Alibabs, Rugby World Cup 2015, my boss lives in Twickenham, dh's boss does too. Road closures = mayhem across the county today. Schools closed all week so no school for both our bosses kids.

Dh and I are watching now!

Is it the Surface Lyndie?

I have had a good work week, pulled together some organisation for my new dissertation and my mum has cooked shepherds pie. DH is off tomorrow until 2pm for the first time in ages and just trying to work out how to take advantage of that development. Finished my book so get to pick something else

Lovely pics knocking about. I am so excited. I am actually really excited about S2 rewatch, I really think we are going to enjoy it more second time around.

Oh and if we are doing alternative Santi then I give you Father Vega only watch Cristada if you have a steel heart

Haydee/Morelike - Santi as the Count would warrant a wench trip to the cinema.

Wicked that's just...

Aw shucks thanks morelike
