Swagger Inn 140 - Where The Musketeers shout "We've come for your wenches" and The Wenches shout "Okay!"

[LetUsPrey]

Start off with my favourite photo

Oh, this is on Sparks' Advent Calendar. I'd forgotten how much I love this, season 1 was amazing.

Yes it was

Badders skip work, come down for just the lunch and ship to DCs to friends for tea...?

I'm not at work as it's a Saturday but Dh is away in the US
Might have to see if I can wangle some childcare.....

I'd have to come down in the train....

Yes - yes you would (Is that a problem?)

Hmmm not really
Except I do have form for getting on the wrong trains 🤔😂

I have actually got on the wrong train with DS1. Fortunately we realised before the train went anywhere and we got on the right one.

I carefully guided some tourists onto a tube train going the wrong way once I was also going the wrong way, but that was small consolation for them. I forget which station it was, but it was a weird one where they went from all the same platform or some such...

Tea!

How's the tree looking Apricot? Was it today you were decorating it?

Really pleased with the headway I made with Christmas shopping. Bit stuck on things for DS1.

Watching NCIS with DS1. Gibbs still has the moustache. I think it goes in the next episode.

Aaaannnnd the tache is gone

We have some tinsel and lights up round the house. We might get a tree next weekend.

Glad to hear that Gibbs has found his razor That will be less tickly for you LetUs

Think I'm going to head to the hayloft now - night all...

Night Helen x

at less tickly

Evening wenches

Soz, have visitors atm & am very slightly pissed, hope the following makes sense

badders, ooh yes those Amazon lockers sound fab. That'll sort me out fine.

letus we are as one - I love those old musicals. Singin' in the Rain is my absolute favourite

I'm in for the 21st

wicked and bads. bads hope you can swing it somehow. wicked hope to see you later in the year!

G'day wenchi

Well. What a weekend! We were treated to our first taste of a proper tropical storm with a massive supercell 35 degree heat, then lightening and hail! All these pics are much better than mine to give you the flavour of the amazing colours.

Power was out for a short while, seemed just like the valleys in the 70s... though somewhat warmer and less tinned peaches.

Fully enjoyed the 'Elk and H do London journey tracker. I always have those Party feet for heels. I have soft feet.

So, this week I mostly getting very excited about ds1 arriving. And panicking slightly that although I've had these Fridays off, I haven't actually made much progress, falling back into the old old story of needing the pressure to get anything done. Predictable.

Oooh btw apparently new Sherlock at new year. Who will be buying Christmas Radio Times to find out when so I can work my international timings out? 😄. Badders?

Yes comtesse
I shall be purchasing it on publication day

You know me so well!

Jesus it's cold today....minus 2 out there
Brrrr
I have physio again today

OH MY GOD
ITS OUT!!!

Morning wenches

Head not too bad this morning fortunately

at those pics comtess, I love a good thunder storm & so rarely get them here

Morning wenches.

I see I don't need to leave the paracetamol out for Fancy.

I was just thinking this morning when DS1 was arriving Comtess and how excited you must be! Less tinned peaches made me .

You'll know when Sherlock starts. You'll probably hear the excited scream from this side of the world.

Might get the Christmas RT...

Have fab days wenches and good luck at the physio Badderz x

Aaaarghhhhh!!!! It's the apocalypse!!!!!

"Photobombed by lightning." LOL.

Well it's minus fucking FIVE here this morning. Which no doubt is colder than Sweden again.

+5 here Madame

Co op don't have them
Bastards

apricot your blog was fab by the way - I really enjoyed reading it.

Contess re Apocalypse. Looks like an ace thunderstorm, but I could live without that amount of heat - VERY easily. When I went out to Oz we flew by a tropical storm during the night, which was very spectacular and entertaining - and also a long way away. (phew) Has DS1 told you that he brought the flights forward and is arriving tomorrow?
Also - tinned peaches. Yum - staple food in this house, added to rice pudding. Obviously, really, fresh, juicy peaches are superior

The party feet thingies didn't work for Elk, they just transferred the pain elsewhere. I found the full-foot insert worked for me when Fancy and I were running late for a meet-up and had to stop at the Boots in the train station. Fortunately my boots were so big/socks were so thin that it didn't matter than the inserts were far too big for the actual boot, and wrapped round as a heel protector as well. Worked a treat actually.
