How's this everywench?

Fancy...I was under the impression he was an atheist? Not sure he would consider it a sin?

Evening wenches

Bloody windy isn't it?

Turns out I have missed a hot workman today . Neighbour stopped to tell me on my way in that the garage door repair man chappie was FIT AS FUCK or as she put it 'ever so handsome'. Big bollocks to working all day and not being at home prettily waiting on workman. Grrrrr. Even more downside it was quite expensive. Ds3 still in doghouse.

Also I unexpectedly got accused of being a Tiger Mom by colleague when I questioned the phrasing on a leaflet and said the determiner governed the use of the singular tense, even with a plural noun. I'd learnt this recently from ds4's year 6 homework. She was astounded and instantly accused me of Tiger parenting. I pointed out that Gove has included all sorts of shit no one knows in the new curriculum. She was when she tried an online test of the SPaG for yr 6. Really quite hard in places.

Bads

He still has his son to live for, what a wanker

I also thought that ref Andrei Bads.

Yes WW agreed, he's a big twat as a father all round

Comtesse...as ever, we are as one 😘

Evening all!

Snatching a brief catch up while neglecting the kids and having some peace and quiet because DrIssy now has ds1's lurgy and therefore isn't up for talking.

badders complete scunner about your tooth. If only they worked that out months ago!

Hope everyone else is well and wenchlet are all recovering fast.

Still not caught up with W&P so will read your erudite comments with interest

Fancy hilare ref Pontins. Mr C needs no encouragement on these things so will not be showing him any holiday chalet sex threads. Pontine, Butlins or Whatevs

Helen poor DS with Scarlatina get well soon xxx

Evening

yes I think he is badders, or at the very least had a severe crisis of faith. I expect it would be hard to shake off the taboo of it though?

Hope you escape the germs issy, talk to us - we're very educational. If you want to learn all about holiday camp euphemisms.

What's that comtess? Don't mention Centreparcs et al? Right you are, bum's, I mean mum's the word. Move on MrC - nothing to see here.

Bummer RE Scarletina, hope he feels better soon Helen. I'm about to paint toenails which I will no doubt regret later when my feet are frozen & I can't go to bed. Still, needs must....

What colour sparks?

ABs are kicking in already, thanks. DS hasn't needed hot compress on his ears all afternoon, which was constant over the previous 24 hours. But the ABs liquid really does taste foul - will see if we can at least get the second week changed to pills I think.

Can't paint my toenails. The middle one on one side is mostly black caused by no injury at all but looks like a massive bruise. The middle one on the other side is darkened at the base and now has a crack along the base which I think is nail psoriasis. I am what I believe is referred to as A Right Bobby Dazzler.

I'm sure though that Aramis wouldn't give a crap about toes. Plenty else for him to concentrate on (on rota nights obviously).

Goodness me Helen, scarlet fever!! blimey, so we were right to be worried!!

Badders and Anne, I don't think Andrei was suicide linked, and his desire to go to war was not suicide at all, but a desperation, self loathing, desire to escape the shallowness of society, but never suicide based. Or that's how it is in the book, all the reviews I've ever written. Haven't seen last nights episode yet, so maybe that's how it was portrayed in the to show, but if it is done intentionally that would be very odd because Tolstoy would never condone that, it goes against all his views and beliefs, so I certainly never got that from the book.

Comtess I am shocked re some of the stuff ds2 is doing for the new spag year 2 tests, really unusual and not normally used similes, synonyms and conjunctions that made even my eyebrows rise!!

I will be interested to hear your take on last night's episode obs
I'm not looking forward to tomorrow 😱

We've had a number of things for ds4's homework that twinnies just say 'dunno, we never did that' to. Helpful boys. Diolch. Not.

Just watched new Deutschland Fancy - have you watched last week's yet?? V good.

Not yet comtess, have been a bit disorganised today & want to properly concentrate on it as you said it was so good. Will watch tomorrow I think. Grr to the twins, DS is usually quite helpful with DD's homework if asked, but suspect that's an eldest child show-offy thing bless him. He's been rather sweet lately. probably wants something

Tonight I have dealt with the 1st piece of DS3's Maths HW that the older 2 said 'dunno' to This was always H's dept. I have literally no idea if we've done it right despite googling. FMM.

Dark red, Minty.

Ooh I love a bit of maths sparks, I really am that sad. I love figures. Especially FAF toned ones. With beards

Not sure where we're going with DS2's homework. It's generally a fucking battle to get him to do it. And DS1 is choosing options which is causing a headache. Ah well, can't do anything about it right now.

Never got round to W&P again.

DH has got football deadline day stuff on. No mention of an interesting signing like this one.

Maybe not LetUs, but you know, Soccer Aid Get yourself in the market for a Chile kit, could be a Team A weekend of epic proportions...

What I lack in qualifications I make up for in enthusiasm
