... 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.

I concur with Madame apes.
Dooooo iiiittttt

Back from family walk, without anyone murdering someone else - result.

Elk is that a mini-facehugger on the side of your car?

Eeek!

Reminds me of the time I found a huge spider on my leg in the car. Fortunately DH was driving at the time. I flailed around and as we were fortuitously at some traffic lights I jumped out. DH was searching for it when he noticed that it was sitting on my elbow. He reached over the passenger seat and grabbed it off me, got out of the car, dropped it in the road and stamped on it. By this time the lights had changed. God knows what the drivers behind us thought.

I needed a new digital box and was thinking of getting one you can record on but they're a bit pricey, so I decided to finally try to figure out how to use my recordable (?) DVD player which I bought eons ago, after a while I thought fuck it! So I contacted the digital TV company by chat and got a much better deal than what I would have got if I just ordered it online from them. I saved £100 so I'm a happy meatball

Love the tea pot Bads

Well done that meatball!

Relic Hunter is on Sky2 at the moment. Bonnaire's episode has finished but there's another one on now.

You'll definitely be able to doooo it Apes. You are TechWench. Arf at abandoning car

Aaaaaarggggh what the fuck is that???

I've run a few blogs in my time apes. On blogspot and WordPress. I think WordPress is nicer. Go for it!

I'm supposed to be at a family bbq but babymouse has fortuitously dpecided to take a nap. Mr and Toddlermouse have gone without us and ill go up after this cup of tea never eventually.

Well done WW.

I've got WordPress installed Mouse but I'm just experimenting with it at the moment.

Go for it apes, you ARE TechnoWench.

Hope his better mood lasts throughout the meal letus

elk for MlleElk though, I quite like a Quorn picnic egg too!

@ apricot's spider-in-car story & the visual image of MrA jumping up & down on a spider in the middle of a road!

Hope Babymouse is still asleep?

Well done the bargain wicked - always worth phoning and haggling
Apricot - yes - I didn't say it would be a pleasant sleep but I'm sure you can dooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttttttttt. It doesn't have to be anything super complicated. I once had a spider on me while I was driving. Fortunately it wasn't big and I'm very pround of the fact that although a screamed ad brushed it off, I didn't crash.

Mouse - yay for cooperative BabyMouse! long may he snooze through unwanted events

DS is now hyper because I signed up for a mailing list for BBC children's shows. This, he is covinced, means he will be able to take part in all CBBC shows for ever and ever. Argh. I have to go outside and watch him running about being excited now.

PS - hornets cross with me again. Not sure who's going to give up forst - me or them. Probably me.

Well, it's pissing it down here

I'm in bed watching outlander
Lots of lovely hbf kilt action
I'm knackered
Shopping does not agree with me!

Inconvenient cat would like you all to know that he has never been fed in his life and we starve him. And no - that isn't food in his bowl that he can't be bothered to eat. Definitely not. That is sub-standard muck.

We haven't had rain, so I have been up a ladder pruning stuff and tieing up HBFs stuff up and other things that I have been meaning to do for months a little while.

i think bed sounds like and excellent idea LetUs, though I will probably work faff about online for hours still.

at anyone who got a good thunderstorm today. I feel like I haven't had a good one in ages

Yep, we had thunder and lightening earlier

Still no rain. feels like we could do with some though - v. muggy

Same here helen - it's all warm & damp (aniagw)

How about I make things warmer & damper?

That's more hotter and wetter than warmer and damper

Sheesh Fancy - that picture is apparently so hot that it crashed our hub! Personally, this one is hotter....

And something for (nearly) everyone.
