So sad to hear about Zombie tonight & cant find a new thread now that the keep the home fires thread is full?
Is there one?
Such a wonderful woman who will be missed by so so many people.
No words seem enough, just wanted to raise a glass 🥃 to toast the legend that is Zombie & the legacy she's left behind.x

SassynSane · 10/02/2017 10:15

Ooh takeaway and Wine tonight Bath? Lovely Wink

SassynSane · 10/02/2017 10:17

Hope RL all ok Pacific Smile

BathshebaDarkstone · 10/02/2017 10:27

Yep! Grin

MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles · 10/02/2017 16:09

Afternoon all!

Pacific, lovely to see you, hope all is well. Have a lovely holiday!

Bath, takeaway sounds good! Friday is fish and chip night at Chez Malcolm.

Sassy, hope your day was better than yesterday!

As for me, ibuprofen did nothing, so I broke out the big guns aka my proper migraine tablets, and all was well! Feeling pretty tired, but no headache! So all good.

Have a good evening, everyone!

SassynSane · 10/02/2017 16:49

Pleased you manage to fend the migraine off Malcolm, hope it stays that way!

My day distinctly hard work (got in early, left late, no lunch break, more cannonball run than school run) but all done now & just home. Almost Wine o'clock Grin and breathe....

SassynSane · 10/02/2017 20:27

Evening everyone Smile Hope takeaways & fish 'n' chips going down nicely....as well as Wine & Gin Grin

I may have missed this but does anyone know when Zombie's funeral is? Not religious but if I am able to take 5 mins out to have a calm moment on the day then I'd like to do so.

Weekend and half term now officially started....woo hoo! x

MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles · 10/02/2017 21:42

Evening, Sassy, evening all!

Fish and chips have been consumed and I'm about to go to bed in the blissful knowledge that I don't have to get up until the babies wake up and start grumbling. No getting up and out for school runs! Yippee!

Hope everyone is enjoying their Wine and Gin.

I too would also like to take some time on the day of Zombie's funeral and light a candle for her. I haven't seen Unborn, Fid, Suzie, Fatty etc for quite some time. I absolutely understand if they're taking some time away from this thread, but I hope they come back. I miss them.

Anyhoo, I'm off to sleep, perchance to dream and probably have to get up for a wee at about 3 o'clock.

Night, all!

SassynSane · 10/02/2017 21:59

Sweet dreams Malcolm hope you get a bit of a lie-in and your little ones bladder let you sleep Smile

Night all x

BathshebaDarkstone · 10/02/2017 22:12

Apparently my aunt sent a text to the wrong person, DD's going on Tuesday, so I had one DC with me. Hmm

Picked DD up, she had ham and cheese toasties for tea, picked DS2 up with DD, back home, they were in bed by 9.30, had steak, chips, leeks and green beans, in bed now. Smile

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 09:49

Morning all....can I just say IT'S SNOWING! ❄⛄ 😊 Grin Woooohoooo! Not settling at the mo but exciting all the same. Love a bit of snow....especially when am cosy inside drinking Brew

MrsDilligaf · 11/02/2017 10:08

I'd like to stand in the garden, having a fag and a gin at an appropriate time and wish Zombie onwards into the ever after.

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 10:27

I echo that MrsD...minus the fag Wink If anyone does know when that appropriate time might be it would be good to know x

MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles · 11/02/2017 11:00

Yep, sounds good, MrsD and Sassy. A kind of honourary Phalanx/lurkers/botherers tribute. I second the Gin!

It snowed here overnight, Sassy, but not very much. It's taunting me, there's a bit of snow on the roof of the shed but not much on the lawn. I love snow! Please, please, let it snow properly!

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 11:08

Shall we try a snow dance Malcolm? Side-together, side-together, twirl and shiver! Grin Urghhh...no not working, still flurries coming down but not settling apart from inaccessible rooftops...ditto love snow stamps foot petulantly and threatens toddler strop if flurries don't turn into blizzards

Happy Saturday everyone Smile

MalcolmTuckersOmniShambles · 11/02/2017 11:47

❄️🌨☃️👯💦🌧☔️😡😡😡

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 11:55

The dancing girls representing our snow dance have just made me LOL Malcolm Grin ..... wanders off to dig out black leotard and matching bow

Stopped here now - double Angry

MrsDilligaf · 11/02/2017 12:54

I'm definitely a botherer - the Phalanx are a very special bunch.

I was just really touched by how much you clearly loved Zombie. She must have been incredibly special and she will remain in your hearts forever.

I was on another forum when one of our community died. It was awful and heartbreakingly sad to lose a friend. Even now a number of years on there are still a lot of members who pay tribute to her.

Gin to you all on a cold day!

poisonedbypen · 11/02/2017 15:08

The fact that the funeral hasn't been mentioned suggests to me that they wish to keep the information private. I could be wrong as i know nothing about it & am very much a lurker/botherer!

ExitPursuedBySpartacus · 11/02/2017 16:29

There is a fb group with details of the funeral.

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 16:38

Hi Exit How are you? Ah ok, not on FB at the mo. Do you know just the date at all?

BathshebaDarkstone · 11/02/2017 18:08

Hello! Had breakfast in the Sainsbury's café, back home, 1 DC in bed, the other going in 23 minutes. Gin

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 18:21

23 minutes Bath? Military precision in the Bath household! Eating pizza & drinking red Wine chez Sassy Wink

UnbornMortificado · 11/02/2017 18:37

I've been absent DD1 ended up with bloody appendicitis. Just spent 5 nights on a fold out chair not leaving her side. She got discharged and she's buggered off straight to her dad's Hmm

The people who's organising the funeral are not wanting the details made public, which is why I haven't posted anything.

I'm sure it's ok to mention that Zombie wanted donations to the hospice (like many mnetters already have done) in lieu of flowers.

SassynSane · 11/02/2017 18:59

Oh Unborn sounds like it has been stressful your end. Glad DD1 discharged though Flowers for you!

Understand entirely re privacy....guess will pick a day & take 5 mins out of it Smile
