Swagger Inn Thread 136 - Series 3 Finishes - wenches wail piteously, don black crepe and mourn the lack of Musketeers on screen

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

... then we just carry on jabbering and perving, and rewatching, and, well business as usual. Apparently there are plenty of thighs on display at the Olympics.

Oooh fancy lots and lots of luck in your new job tomorrow! You will be fab. In time honoured wench fashion I hope youre going to go commando...

Just got back from Ghostbusters. It was feckin ace. Wtaf were all those haterz on twitter on about?

Hilare about poor old Santi. He is just eye rolling massively internally at it all isn't he. Bless.

Off to the beach today .

Sooooooo impressed with your bee wrangling Helen.

Laters wenchi

Aw thanks madame & fuck knows what all the criticism was about. Well, that's not strictly true is it? How very dare anyone remake a film with women in the main roles previously taken by men I laughed plenty, especially at Holtzmann. Who was 'unfunny' apparently Not to DD & I

Enjoy the beach & tell the Aussies to lay off the sour grapes eh?

Night all

Good luck today Fancy

Haven't seen Ghostbusters but the cast is fab so I'm sure it's hilarious!

Mor Afternoon all. Still tired. Haven't done any work due to being asleep. Need to put washing on line and then do soe work.

One of my friends is off to the BFI screening and Q&A with cast for the launch of S2 Poldark. (That's the closest I have to any HBF news).

Laters....

Nephews coming up again today
TOTALLY doing the water bomb trampoline thing!!!!
Hi comtesse

bads

Tbh Im not sure Im going to watch Poldark this season...I gather things dont go great for him and demelza, and I loooooove dezzy...

The only weak actor in Ghostbusters was Chris Hemsworth imo - the four women were just brilliant. Found CH kind of wooden and not very funny - shame as he had loads of funny bits. I think he does striding around in a manly red cape very well, but not so sure about comedy...

Chris Pratt would have been sooooooooo much better

I haven't watched the first season!
Which is odd, as I love AT but it just doesn't appeal at all...
Boys having a good time but tap disaster and I can't fill the ruddy balloons....argh

TRAMPOLINE WATER BOMB FIGHT!!!!

Looks excellent Badders

I don't expect to watch Poldark either - didn't watch the first series so no impetus to watch the second and we have so much stuff stacked up waiting to be watched already.

Comtess - save your impressedness until I'm sre that the hives have merged and I haven't managed to kill off both sets, eh? Hornets still buzzing about but hadn't started to rebuild their nest last night. will check again (and demolish as necessary) later today.

Must get dressed though (working form home in PJs day ) since I need to take DS swimming when DH brings him back from HolidaySportingActivityII

Also ought to check on washing. Ho hum....

Hope fancy has had a good day... In leiu of her Olypub reports, I belive we won a medal in canoeing or something. Will never make a sports reporter, that's for sure. Oh, also COMTESS! you probably didn't see because it was BBC coverage. After the cycling and the girls got lots of medals, Claire Balding was talking to the grouped families of the cycling girls, and pointed out to George North that there had been lots of proposals at the Olympics so was he planning to carry on the tradition - his face was a picture

Evening wenches. Hope Fancy's first day went brilliantly.

That looks a lot of fun Badderz!

Not seen Ghostbusters. Am off to see Star Trek tomorrow.

Can't believe I've only been back at work for four days. Holiday seems like it was a lifetime ago.

Lots of medals today - silver in canoeing, gold in sailing, bronze in badminton, gold and silver from the Brownlee brothers in the triathlon, Nicola Adams is through to her boxing final (love her). I think that's everything. Jade Jones is fighting in the taekwondo tonight. Best be careful as they might attract Aramis's attention what with him loving violence in a woman

Evening wenches

Watching Kevin in the decathlon & the camera panned to Lavillenie in the crowd, how obliging

Thank you for all the good wishes - it all seemed to go fine today, they're a very friendly bunch which was great. Think I have info overload though! Cats were very pleased to see me when I got home - lots of chirruping at me. And a hairball

Excellent Olympic summary letus - I look forward to a catch up on iPlayer this evening

trampoline water fight looks fab badders

DS got an 'A' for his Ad Maths & is very chuffed. Niece & nephew got into their top uni choices too, so good news all round

Good news x

Women's diving on now. I've switched over now Kevin's finished jumping

We've got Nexo Knights on

I have no idea what that is & am quite relieved that my DC are old enough to let me watch athletes' shoulders in peace. DD sometimes joins me in appreciating them now, although she is indifferent to Lavillenie

Many congratulations where due Fancy!

Also watching the diving. Have realised DS2 isn't in his pyjamas and is still watching tv and playing on the iPad. DH has just got back in and thought he'd be ready for him to take to bed. Whoops.

Have just been having a google of Kévin. He seems a talented chap

We've had Nexo Knights on earlier Helen.

Not sure I'd even go up on that diving board, never mind jump off it. I'd need a heck of an incentive - perhaps chasing an HBF?

Thanks & letus I am the most neglectful parent ever during the Olympics - I'm quite impressed if I manage to get dressed & feed everyone

He is talented - very talented arms. And shoulders bet he has a very talented accent too - hope Phil gets to interview him trackside.....

Helen, DB and DSil had a hornet's nest on their balcony. Got rid of them, cleared away old nest, the buggers rebuilt the following year. Apparently if you leave the old nest they think its inhabited and won't come back. (Usual disclaimers about having no experience in the subject)

That'd tempt me up there letus - nothing else would

at Kevin's many talents. Waiting for Jade Jones to get kicking...

(Nexo knights is Legos latest marketing ploy to sell more lego sets)

Did MoreLike come 3rd in the diving?

Yay Jade!!!

And yes morelike got bronze - she did some lovely dives!
