Swagger Inn thread 154 - wenches find new ways to describe going on Strike<ylt>

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

'nuff said?

Evening. I have been out with DS while DH was at leaving drinks. Now I've finally got him to bed, and it's cold downstairs. I may head back up to bed shortly.

Oh LetUs You need lots of HBFs to attend to your every need.

Stupid and Inconvenient Cats are having a mutual grooming session. This is also cute, until one of them has had enough and takes a swipe at the other...

When is MrA getting his other knee done?

Now ScaredyCat has arrived for a cuddle - wish I could send her up to you letus

My two have a right scrap last night helen - clumps of fur flying all over the futility room still flying around as I can't be arsed to hoover

Twitter news - well I saw it on twitter. Cuckoo's Calling won a National Film Award thingy for Best Drama. complete with fuzzy pic of TB in scrubbed up mode

Hayloft time...

Morning wenches.

Bleurrrggghhh bleeuuuuurrrggghhh bleeuuurrrggghhhh. Feel like shit. If I wasn’t off next week, not sure I’d bother going in today.

The cute cat stories have cheered me up though.

I think I've caught your lurgy letus 😣

And we start decorating today 😣

I have no lurgy (yet) but the plumber has been and sorted out the stopcock. Totes NOT a euphamism but very good news.

And one the cats yakked up all over the dining room floor. Joy. And not cute.

Today is 1st day of holidays here. DS is complaining because he still has his usual swimming lesson.

And I forgot to actually post this message the weather is currently bright and sunny here - hope everyone has similar...

Afternoon wenches.

Join me in the sick bay Badderz.

Pleased to see the plumber sorted things out for you Helen

Have had sunshine, now have rain. Hope Apricot’s weather is holding up for her.

I lasted till about lunchtime at work, finished what I needed to get done, then gave up and came home feeling like shit. Nice quiet house to myself for a few hours I thought. Get under a blanket on the settee and watch tv in peace inthiugh. DH had got home about two minutes before me as they finish early before a bank holiday. No problem at all but would have been nice to just have a few hours.

Ive been ripping up carpet and stripping wallpaper 😣 my hands are all cut and sore 😔
Feeling quite rough now
Someone's coming at 6 to pick up the old carpet but after that I'm going to bed...not my bed sadly 😣😣

Hope you feel better soon x

Freezer surprise for supper...

Ive also decided we are moving the bedroom around so I may have bought too many rolls of wallpaper

for Letus. Working four hours tomorrow but then I'm ready to celebrate easter. Bought a shitload of chocolates!

Ive eaten 4 Swiss choc rolls wicked....feel a bit 🤢

Impressive!

Contemplating getting up. Possibly not.

No chocolate for me for a bit. It’d be a waste.

You’ve been under Kylo’s cloak for so long Wicked, you’ve reduced him to a husk. I’ll just pop him in the bath to rehydrate him. You’re welcome

Been listening to some Desert Island Disc podcasts and an episode of John Finnemore’s Souvenir Programme.

Yay, I have internet. Haven't RTFT. Hello wenches from cold and windy Wales. All is well at the caravan except for a small burst pipe which hasn't caused any trouble.

Have just been to a lovely local restaurant who do chips to die for. Am a bit lot pissed.

Thank you Letus

hurrah for pissed apricot

Whose bed are you in then Badders?!

at rehydrated Kylo

My brain has now ceased to RetainTFT so no more comments. I need to turn DS' lights off...

Yay, pissed apricot

you're going nowhere

• he'll need a good rub down......

Oh no Fancy, do I have to?

Did someone need a towel? Aiden will lend you his while he sees to LetUs or Fancy if letUs feels too ill. Or both.

Have eaten chocolate. Oink. Still knackered though, and seem to have done something rather unpleasant to my neck while digging the veg patch this afternoon.

Ah pissed Apricot. That’s cheered me up!

Am still fit for nothing so Wicked can use the towel and Fancy will have to keep Aidan warm by herself.

Athos will be along shortly Helen to give you a thorough going over

I got up, went downstairs, fell asleep on the settee. Back in bed now.

I can manage that letus, now get some rest wench!

And yes you do have to ww. And make sure you're thorough

Morning peeps. Hope LetUs is feeling better this morning - will send Dr Aramis to check. Or maybe just any HBF.

Right. is lined up and ready to go for those who need it.
is on the side, in case
HBFs are wherever you left them last.
Wenches - GO!

(Also, FFS, why do I bother? DS is complaining about this that and t'other. All suggestions by me are bad ones apparently, so he's going to carry on grouching and sulking. Oh joy.)

Sadly I was in ds2s bed 😔

More painting today...ugh

Dh booked a days holiday today.
Great! Except he's been on his laptop ignoring us all working since 8am
So that's nice 😡😡

I foresee me pissing off out somewhere later on lest I smash his face in

Laters x

Morning wenches. Am on the mend but still feel like crap. If this is what DS2 had, then I’m impressed he went back to school on Wednesday.

Tav’s looking lovely and clean and smelling fresh —unlike me—

Ah MiniHelen - sounds all too familiar.
