'nuff said?

Fear not
I am in bed now letus
Can't say I'm getting much rest...

breathes fire and everything Wicked

As long as you’re lying down Badderz

Was leaping around the kitchen earlier today to Mr Brightside. I cannot wait until July. I was thinking about getting a t shirt like this one to wear to the gig but I’m not sure

It's bed rest of a sort Badders

We have golf on TV , I have been sewing, DS is asleep. I have absolutely nothing of interest to say for myself. Think I might head for an early(ish) night in the hayloft...

I think I've pulled a muscle in my groin helen
Boys a machine 😍

Athos is interested Helen

Did you not pull something —near— in the other groin Badderz?

I am heading for the chateau. Aramis, Aidan and Jonnie are waiting. Brandon and Paella are popping along too. It’s a big bed.

Morning wenches busy night last night

Thought for one awful moment when I woke up that it was Monday, then realised it was Saturday. Phew.

Rainy McRainington here. Might go into town. Might not. Ooo the excitement and the mystery.

Also raining here. So much for doing more washing today.

Hurrah for it not being Monday though

Was this the bed LetUs?

That’s the one Helen

I’m just imagining myself in that bed in that particular scenario. Blimey. I’m going to need a minute.

Am watching more Commonwealth Games events. The women gymnasts throwing themselves about on the floor routines and the beam. Fearless. More medals in the cycling events. Am waiting for the swimming.

Got the car washed and vaxed today and also the tires changed. It better not snow anymore!
Making tacos now, the Swedish national dish

Blimey what a day! Dh has gone on his trip.

Am having a feud with next 😡

Been selling some stuff on e bay so been parcelling things up - thought of you apes 😁

Stripped beds and re made...ds1 has to help me (blush)

Hoping for a boring few days..

at tacos Sweden’s national dish.

I’m a bit peeved with Next too Badderz. Must be the day for it. Nothing major. Had a couple of separate texts saying my orders were ready to collect. Called in on Thursday, picked up two parcels. Got a text today to say there’s still a parcel there and I’ve only got until Monday to collect it (so it was there when I went on Thursday, they just didn’t bring it through). So this means I’ve got to make an unnecessary trip tomorrow. Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but a PITA nonetheless.

Been to see mum and dad. I now plan to do —HBFs— bog all for the rest of the day.

I'm in a foul mood now

I'm going to put some if my "no messing" perfume on and waft through the house being fabulous 😁👍

Going to pils for dinner tomorrow so at least I don't have to cook

Have been on local meet-up with lots of DCs and minimum supervision. Was rather pleasant. Now back home and have been lopping and weeding n the garden.

I made our bed all by myself yesterday - an achievement given the stupid-sized duvet that is entirely my fault. DH didn't notice, obvs. Or if he did, I was asleep by the time he came to bed so he didn't wake me up to comment - just as well really.

I'd like to watch Tb TV with HBFs. We are watching F1 qualifying.

I like the idea of “no messing” perfume.

I like the sound of HBF TV Helen.

I can top the F1 qualifying. DS2 put The Emoji Movie on. I went into it with an open mind. Nope nope nope. And now we have football on.

Hello wenches. Miserable day here.

I've done sod all today really, except that I went to feed Buffy earlier as DD & co have gone to the caravan for the weekend. She was stood at the top of the stairs as I let myself in and came running down meowing. We had a cuddle and a bit of grooming. Her fur is ridiculous again, I'll have to have her next week.

at "no messing" perfume.

Ah
"No messing" perfume are powerhouses and - frankly - sometimes a bit skanky 😁
I'm currently in vintage obsession ❤
But I would also consider:
Opium
Cinnabar
Knowing
Paloma Picasso - proper skanky 😍
I can't be doing with floral wishy washy pink minger perfumes 😡😡
They have me the RAGE
Sadly every perfume currently is a candy scented pink monstrosity so I spend a lot of time muttering and buying vintage decent perfume off eBay
(Waft)

Awww to Buffy being all happy to see you Apricot It's always nice when you get an enthusiastic welcome.

I've just googled 'taco vs burrito vs fajita' I feel somewhat enlightened, but it won't last. give me a week, or less, and I'll be clueless again. As long as WW enjoyed it, all is well

Am trying to find something to do tomorrow. The weather forecast suggests that we want to do something indoors

Oh that’s so sweet re Buffy running to greet you Apricot! Although why wouldn’t you?

I remember buying a bottle of Opium perfume on the plane on my first holiday abroad in 1989. That and a bottle of Chanel No 5, because I was like so sophisticated.

Something for you to do indoors Helen? Need you ask?

I’m watching videos on YouTube with my headphones on. DH is watching the football. Complete with loud fucking running commentary and shouts occasionally of “look at that” “did you see that” “just watch this”. I’m having a complete moment watching The Killers cover David Bowie’s Fame and he’s destroying said moment. Can’t even tell him to shut the fuck up because DS2 is nearby.

FFS. Sorry Helen. Indoor activity idea.

Pizza used to be the most Swedish thing you could eat, now it's tacos

Of course Buffy gets excited when her grandma comes to visit her

Oh LetUs I do love you
To be honest, I was thinking more of a family argument activity, but your idea is much more enticing...

DH went through a phase of buying me perfume when he worked abroad, and the duty free moppets would try to convince him that I would love this, that and t'other stinky stuff that they were trying to sell. I was very bemused and I think he got the hint after my third bottle. (which I gave to a friend) thereafter he stuck to bringing me chocolate

Aw, she's so sweet, I felt bad leaving her on her own although she does sleep for 18 hours a day. I'll go again in the morning.

Bads, that's so weird, I've been selling some vintage perfume on eBay recently. I bought a lot in the 1990s, but can't wear it now as it gives me a migraine. I've sold Samsara, Dolce & Gabanna and Estee Lauder Youth Dew, nearly £100 in total buyers are mad.

Omg!
Let me know if you're selling any more!!!

I really want pizza now. Proper pepperoni pizza or a meat feast .

Pfft the rest of the family can fend for themselves Helen. You entertain yourself, or rather let Athos entertain you.

Football is done thank fuck. However we then had the post-match interviews together with DH’s insightful comments on said interviews and then the post-match analysis. Jeez I’m happy that he’s happy but aarrrggghhhh.

I’ve got the Commonwealth Games highlights on. They’re showing weightlifting. I think I could probably manage to lift the bar if it didn’t have any weights on it.

I think that's it now Bads. I've got some Chanel no. 5 but I'd better keep that as DD gave it to me.

DH is the same with the football LetUs, and the golf. [rolly eyes]
