Swagger Inn 148 - Wenches do (musketeers) and Wimbledon - it's all about the grip and service action!

[LetUsPrey]

Here we go.

Phew, caught up on the thread.

Fab report helen - the Monty Python ref was so apt I PMSL & cbf (at teh gratuitous tit shots) simultaneously

Glad all wenches (and MrWenches) are safely home & that comtess has reappeared. I was at the athletics the night of Bolt/Gatlin - amazing atmosphere - have my final visit, with DD, tomorrow night & am hoping I don't jinx Mo......

Am thoroughly confused having swapped my days around this week & will no doubt be just as bad next week. Did spend a very pleasant day with FancyMan, who is (finally) back from holiday

Ooh fab throw from Nick Miller in teh hammer

There were two French de athletes Fancy. Which one? both

Mayer is the one I had my eye on letus

Back home.

Just imagine - a few episodes of Strike ... then a break .... then a few more ,,,, then a few moe - feel that anticipation build between each one?

Punches tested thoroughly and two chosen.

Mayer was the blonder of the two wasn't he Fancy? Lovely he ran very well.

Watching Strictly Ballroom. I do like this film.

Morning wenches.

Feeling surprisingly chipper this morning.

Hurrah for FancyMan's return!

Hope travelling wenches slept well last night.

Morning ☕

Off to Stockholm for fika with a friend. Hope all wenches have a fab day!

Enjoy fika Wicked - have a wonderful time!

I'm watching Little Women (the 1949 one). Jo's just gone home from New York and Beth's not well. Tissues at the ready

Morning wenches. Better night than the previous one, but I don't sleep very well anyway.

Have a lovely fika WW.

The first two episodes are on 27th and 28th followed by 3 further episodes on 3rd, 10th and 17th September, and Career of Evil in the New Year. From here.

Nice article from Radio Times.

Well done Apricot - I love the article. at the 'romantic tension:' Burke’s casting only helps the plausibility of this storyline

hope WW is having a lokely fika, that LetUs is not a sivellign heap of LittleWomen induced misery, and that Fancy has worked out that it's Saturday, so no need for work

Speaking of work

I really ought to get a bit more done I suppose

Here are the two video clips I made:

1. Tom's suitability for the role.

2. How he prepared for the physical aspect of it.

Afternoon

Yes Mayer is the blonder of the two & is very nice letus

Enjoy your fika ww

Excellent article there Apricot. RT writer clearly a TB fan. I personally think a bit too much is made of the 'pube-hair' in the books. It's a brief descriptive note. He's clearly a very attractive man who can pull super models, literary minor Aristos etc. I fancy him in the books. But nevertheless I appreciate them making the point that Tom is very handsome.

I have been out for a run this morning in an attempt to catch up on my training for a half-m soon. Very hard and not pretty. Mountains have not helped.

Glad to hear Fancyman has returned and hit the spot. 😉

Public service announcement - Perseid meteor shower set to peak at 11pm tonight. But might be easier to see at 4am after the moon has set.

Apricot - guess what we have on TV....
(We had a convo after the screening about MN usage:
DH: if SisterH is on MN for the evening then I put the cricket on
Me: More to the point, if DH sticks on the cricket then I go on MN.
DH: Where you complain that I'm watching cricket
Me & Apricot:
DH: FFS

Sounds like you need a good rub down comtess. Any hbfs on hand to oblige?

Same in our house Helen, only substitute golf for cricket.

I always look for that meteor shower, but I've never seen anything.

Enjoy the fika WW. Enjoy Saturday films and general Saturdayness all.

I have just had a sauna and am heading over to my own personal staff masseur (Mr C) for that rub down Fancy. It better be a good hard one.

Donn't worry Comtess I gave up on work when I opened an email that implies that all I'm doing on the bloody stupid deadline job is duplicating something someone else has already done. So I've sent and email asking WTAF is going on... FFS

Now I'm just sitting wasting time online. I shall go and mooch in the garden - hedge needs cutting, mowing needs done, etc. etc. At least that will be more productive than current activities. (though less productive than training for a half marathon.)

We have now switched to football, btw.

at the good hard one

Anyone interested google Ganban-Yoku. Brilliant for unknotting the muscles.

My staff informs me that it will be a hard one but I need to 'get the fuck off the phone' - rude.

Layers 😄

Afternoon wenches.

Hope Comtess is enjoying a good hard one.

Didn't cry at the film. although that might be because it's glossed over really in that version.

Thanks for the links Apricot. Very good articles. Will watch the links when I can get some time to myself.

Football on here too. And so it begins.

Afternoon again

Enjoy your rub down comtess

Thanks for the heads up re the Perseids helen - I saw them a few years ago from my garden & got bitten 40 times in the 10 minutes I was outside. Sodding bitey midgey fuckers

Am off to the athletics in a minute - GO MO!!!!!!!!!!

And Mayer - I will lust for the both of us letus & I expect DD will help out too

You must be so proud Fancy Enjoy the athletics and give Mo a shout from me!

It's been a few years since I've seen the Perseids. Might have a look tonight and hope the clouds stay away.
