Swagger Inn 156 - The Weather Is Getting Hot, The HBFs Will Always Be Hotter

[LetUsPrey]

Best I could do and

I could eat waffles. I mean, I shouldn’t after I got on the scales this morning, but I could.

He calmed down eventually. We went to see my mum and dad. Give him points for determination though. He’s now serving a ban from iPad, DS, Wii and computer.

Is that final A levels all done now Fancy for him?

For you Letus

Why thank you. Have a large one yourself Wicked. And have a too. Badoomtish.

I’m having a Prosecco and Peach Bellini popsicle.

Evening.

Glad you enjoyed the concert Helen and ChateauFancy. Yes, we got lots of flowers and were going to plant them after DH had jet-washed the paths in the front garden, but he got carried away and ended up doing more than he intended. Planting will begin tomorrow.

We had a hornets' nest once in a tree stump. DH dressed up from head to toe like an alien and sprayed them with whatever you spray hornets with. Haven't seen the bee again.

I haven't done much today either WW, but that's fine.

Yay for lazy afternoon Fancy and no more exams.

Have a good evening all.

We are back and I'm trashed. Never mind that DH did all the driving (I did the morning wake-up/Wii set-up/troubleshooting...)

Bleurgh at tantrumming DCs [earplugs]

We only do waffles for breakfast in Canada (cook your own), or in the Metro (wait to be served)

I did water the plants, all three of them

DH did that here once to deal with a wasp nest. He did look a bit silly.

It’s all well and good doing loads of washing but I’ve just remembered my bed and DS2’s need remaking. Arse.

I’ll do that and then have another popsicle. Have had a Bucks Fizz one. Cosmopolitan later.

Ooh, Cosmopolitan. How very Sex and the City

I know right? And because they’re in popsicle form, you don’t feel like you’re drinking. TBH this isn’t always a good thing.

I did that with the last hornets nest we had. Full bee suit, with thick ski gear underneath to make sure the little sods didn't get through to skin!

In football news I appear to have jinxed the team I got in the sweepstake....

Watching the footie, kicking some serious German butt

Mmm Helen, tell me about that outfit again!

Yes, I think you’ve cursed them.

Sweden are playing well. I do like the idea of the Swedish football team IYSWIM. In the same way I like the idea of the Iceland football team.

DH has got dinner cooking. It smells amazing

Ooo Henrik Larsson! I had a bit of a thing for Henrik back in the day when he played for Celtic.

Aaaand the TV went black

Oh no! Is it back on yet?

Nope! All channels are gone, judging by all the livid people on FB I'm not the only one. Oh well, think I'm gonna watch The Last Jedi instead

Silver lining

Oh, the hardship How will you cope Wicked?

So the TV is working again just in time for Germany scoring 2-1. Great.

That is shit timing.

I’d watch Force Awakens too in that case.

Good advice Letus

Evening - omg ww that was terrible timing

DD is delighted at the football - think she fancies several of the German players, hence her interest in that team

Yes, all A levels now complete (fingers crossed for no retakes!), it has been a stressy year with DS & am hoping things will be a bit calmer now. For a bit at least......

I’m such a sensible wench Wicked

I’m just watching the football for the football so far. It’s an unusual feeling. I’m not sure I like it

Hurrah for end of A levels and here’s to future calmness

Am watching A Very English Scandal, ep 2..........
