Swagger In Thread 139 - Yesterday was Halloween, Team A agree that this man can give them the willies any time he likes

[FancyFancy]

No scary pics in this post - just Aramis, who's so hot it must be sorcery

Evening all.
re Sigrid's eye WW - cats and any medicine just don't go well together. Apart from cats and diazepan - the results of which are funny enough to compensate for the stress of getting it into said cat

Fancy - hope DD is feeling better?

Apricot that is utterly classic. I don't think I have any amusing stories about seeing the Dr apart from the time I took DS in and he proved the point of me thinking he was off-colour by actually throwing up in the Dr's office I had a Dr compliment me on my socks once while I was havig a smear okay.....

LetUs - excellent news about the HNBF in your office. I spent today in a spreadsheet haze having 'a quick look' at someone's spreadssheet then pulling it to pieces in a 'where did that figure come from' and 'why have you put that amount in there instead of there' sort of way. Was actually quite satisfying in a sad and geeky sort of way.

Not a HF in sight though - Beardy or not.

Speaking of which - so... Badders doesn't like Cumberbatch. What about Hidders? Does fancy like both of them? Wenches, I am losing the plot about which HBF/HNBFs are in whose queue. Madame has Jonny Lee Miller in hers (not sure if he needs bleached hair or not) and Renners, but I am well confused. Your challenge for tonight is to entertain me with your full and accurate lists of who you would drag into bed (apart from the obvious musketeers of course) because I'm going to have to work (once I've eaten) and I need something entertaining to distract me.....

Just off the top of my head and in no particular order:

Santi (obviously)
The Batch
Paella
Aidan Turner
Dustin Brown
Steve Backshall
Lee Pace
Mark Harmon (but possibly only as Gibbs, I haven't decided)

reserves
Dan Snow
James Norton
Tom Hiddleston
Ore Oduba
Chris Martin
Aldo Kane (Steve's friend --but he might be a bit short)

Funnily enough I'm watching high rise as we speak. Quite bleak. Suits my mood, frankly,
Hidders just doesn't do it for me tbh - maybe it's the TS debacle I dont know. Ive always had a weird vibe about him

Hmmm let's see:

Tom - esp as Athos (obv) and fedor
Santi - as Lancelot and Aramis
Aidan turner - but only as kili or Mitchell
Kit Harrington as Jon snow
Richard madden as robb stark
Nickolaj coster-waldau as jaimie lannister
Richard armitage in north and south
Pedro pascal as oberyn Martell

Oh FFS. Well I managed to simultaneously burn tea and make it so watery that it slopped off the plate and onto the worktop, then DS called me upstairs, then as I headed down to eat the phone rang, and by the time i was off the phone tea was distinctly luke-warm. And I have got no work done yet either.

I impressed by the length of your list LetUs Add a few more and you'll have a full rugby team Speaking of which, where is Comtess? We havent had a triathlon training update for ages... or sunny photos from her running route. Or the latest exploits of casanova DS.... not that I'm living vicariously here I totally am - I'm just nosey

Urgh... work. Or I would if the sodding internet hadn't gone down

Oh yes johnny lee miller I forgot him!

Also;
James purefoy
Rufus Sewell
Max irons
Lawrence fox

Oh yes, Richard Armitage in North and South!

I'm liking emergency Athos He doesn't care if I'm more 'Domestic Disaster' than 'Domestic Goddess'

I'm off to the hayloft with it depends who gets here first and possibly second and third

Night wenches x

Gah! I missed you all.

Fab embarrassing dr tales apricot & badders, am properly PMSL here. Sorry

Hope Sigrid's eye is better soon ww

DD looking slighly better now thank you, but suspect no school again tomorrow

A list is a fine idea helen, but the Batch will not be appearing on mine. Now where to start?

Santi
Aidan Turner in anything but especially me
The bassist from Muse
Jonnie Peacock
Armie Hammer as Kuryakin
Sniper Tim in Justified
FAF Zaf
Eric Cantona
Damian Lewis
Speirs in Band of Brothers
Hidders

Erm, I'm sure there's more.

Ooh yes Gibbs, although I think I'll have a fight on my hands with letus for him

Morning wenches.

I reckon Gibbs could handle us both Fancy

Get well wishes for Fancy's DD and Sigrid.

Extra gentle get well wishes for Madame x

Urgh work urgh

Hope everyone feeling horrid is feeling better? X
Im going to have a bath this morning and chill out

That sounds an excellent plan Badderz

Someone else agrees with me

Morning, nice plan badders

DD still grotty this morning, but will probably live , thank you for the kind wishes everyone. Hope all illing wenches & wench cats have a better day

I think you're probably right about Gibbs letus, he seems a very capable sort

Morning all.

How is the treatment going WW? DD's cat is prone to corneal ulcers and has to have interferon drops twice a day, plus gel if she gets a flare up. Her eyes have to be bathed every day with cooled boiled water because they get messy. She's no trouble at all, in fact I think she enjoys the bathing. She lies on her back on our laps with her feet in the air and goes into a sort of trance.

List, you say.

Tom as Athos
Tom as Dolokhov
Tom as anyone else he's ever played
.
.
.
Aiden Turner, but only as Rossetti
Sean Bean as Sharpe and Mellors
Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester
George Blagden as Athelstan and Louis IV

I'm not going to get started on rock stars, I'll be here all day.

Have a good day all!

Morning all. This morning's work avoidance tactic (so far) has been to spray the mould in the shower with bleach. Now I need to go and scrub it off. DH was complaining about the grout "It's needs to be re done..." thinks I... it comes up fine if you actually scrub it rather than take a sponge to it.

Must work....

Oh Apricot, Timothy Dalton as Mr Rochester - swoon! Happy memories

I forgot Chris Evans - Captain America. In the reserves section.

And Tom Mison who plays Ichabod Crane in Sleepy Hollow. He's on the main list.

LetUs could you do the rest of the house for me while you're at it? I'll just work make sure the hayloft is up to scratch. Athos can help me with that. #deluded

So. Work.

I'm going in.....

GCSE options evening tonight for ds1...hoping he can do what he wants to.
I don't ever think I will ever be warm again after work ❄️😫
Very much a "freezer surprise tea" tonight as it is every Thursday in this house before grocery shop Friday 😁
Am planning another day doing nothing tomorrow - feel like I've been run over by a truck after last week 😞

Evening wenches.

You might want to just go over the house again Helen. I gave it my usual housekeeping effort and sort of just waved a cloth in the general direction of stuff.

Badderz for goodness sake take it easy . Fingers crossed for successful options for DS1.

Have to do reading and spellings with DS2 tonight. I'm treating myself first.

I'm very impressed by your DD's cat's behaviour, Sigrid is not really cooperating She also got a liquid medicine to take orally which she vomited up so I've stopped that one. But she's fine otherwise, playing like a kitten.

I had such a crush on Timothy Dalton as Mr Rochester and also as Bond

Lots of hugs for Wifey

WHY does ds2 turn into a dehydrated philosopher at bedtime!?
Why!!?
He did just say something rather funny though....
Ds2: I love you mummy
Me: I love you more
Ds2: no I love you more. There you go, some positive feedback for you!

Options evening went well...think ds1 knows what he wants to do
I'm so cold
And so tired
I need painkillers but they are downstairs
Wicked...sorry to hear about cat vom
Have you seen Toby Stephens mr Rochester!?
PHWOAR

Pleased Sigrid is well, even if she won't take some of her medicine/can't keep it down.

Timothy Dalton was also very funny (and hot) in Hot Fuzz

DS2 has happily been in the bath for about 40 minutes, chatting away to himself and making up various rescue situations for the toy penguins. Although I did just hear the word "ammo" . Suppose I'd better get him to bed.

Arf at "positive feedback"

Early night if you can Badderz

OMG! Toby Stephens as Rochester, how could I forget!!! I looooove that version. Watched the DVD a million times!

at positive feedback.

Sigrid is purring very loudly atm, like a furry little tractor
