Swagger Inn 157 - Take me dancing naked in the rain.... I wish

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

That works on so many levels -
Take me said every wench to the HBFs of their choice
Take me dancing - well that would do, said every wench to the HBFs of their choice
Take me dancing naked - as long as you strip too, said every wench to the HBFs of their choice
Take me dancing naked in the rain - can we please, FFS have some rain here?

Welcome one and all to the new thread.

Pull up a barstool, pour a drink, state your preferences and order of FAF.

Herewith the obligatory HBF-in-the-rain GIF...

Now, get back and finish the last HBF thread off....

and [HBFs] for fancy
The HBFs agree that you should probably lie down to recover from the blood loss...

Ohhhhhhh will you look at all the pretty!

You truly are a marvel Helen

Have a reward

Oh dear god, I may never get up ever again

No Lotus biscuits but there were ginger nuts, so pretty good
Am watching Pointless - David Tennant is married to Sandra Dickinson's daughter! ScaredyCat is squeezed on my lap & purring loudly - there are some advantages to colder weather.

I just fell over in the garden Was pulling up a bramble and it broke so I went flying backwards in full-on flailing/splat mode on my back And was there an HBF there to pick me up and dust me down afterwards. Was there heck. Inconsiderate sods.
Hope MrA's leg is ok (association of concepts - DIY/gardening mishaps, and MrA)

Will stay inside doing embroidery - much safer. (Unless I stab myself and bleed all over it.) Though I will have to get the washing in at some point too (I could trip over the patio and face plant on the paving slabs). Maybe Athos ought to just restrain me to prevent further injuries...?

Afternoon. Thanks wenches, migaine's gone now. Glad you're feeling better Helen.

I've been helping DD set up a new email account this afternoon. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be blind leading the blind.

Thoughts on Strictly:

1. Bruno was brutal but hilarious: 'You could have got more movement out of a lamp post'.
2. Shirley was unnecessarily critical.
3. DH had a vision migraine thing in the middle of it, he reckoned the trigger was Dr. Ranj's costume.
4. Vick and Graziano sound like a posh cold remedy.

Hope to catch up with Killing Eve tonight.

Squeee at snuggly ScaredyCat

Being restrained by HBFs sounds like a completely valid idea Helen. Hope you’ve not injured yourself but Athos will pop by with something to rub —against— on your bruises just in case.

Basically agree with everything you said about Strictly Apricot. Oti had a rare blip with her choreography, although that only applies to American Smooths apparently and not, for instance, to a Viennese Waltz

Pleased the migraine’s gone.

Washing done. Ironing done —but not put away—. Homework... sigh.

Yay for migraine being gone apricot, commiserations on MrA being confined to barracks & subjecting you to the Ryder Cup . Golf - not only tedious, but also a complete absence of faf.

Ouch helen - getting the washing in sounds far too dangerous - send MrHelen out instead

ScaredyCat has now moved letus -although she's started purring again because I looked at her daft cat

HBFs have much the same effect on me as you have on ScaredyCat Fancy

I'm so annoyed, Adam Driver was on SNL last night but the clips are not available in my country. Are they afraid we're going to use them for terrorism or something?

That’s annoying Wicked. I bet it’ll be available somehow soon

Watching Strictly results. The men partnered each other for part of the opening routine. If they’d put Aljaz and Gorka together, I’d have combusted.

I'm fine apricot - glad to hear you've shifted your migraine as well. Sodding things. Bet MrA is happy with the Ryder Cup result!

at LetUs purring like ScaredyCat

The washing has been safely brought in and hung up to finish drying - MrH was too busy cooking a lamb roast for me to want to distract him with that sort of thing.

For some reason we are watching Sponge Bob bit of a change in tone from Vanity Fair

Yay ww you're back bugger about that video not being availabale

Mmmm........roast lamb

letus, a perfectly understandable reaction

at Vanity SpongeBob

Also mmmm at roast lamb

We’re watching another Killing Eve. I’ve been watching The Truth About The Harry Quebert Affair. I’m glad I read the book first because the tv version isn’t amazing.

Have just watched Killing Eve. different and quirky as apricot says. There's rather a lot of them we haven't even finished Versailles yet and DH has put Mock the Week on now. But I'm tiiiiiiiiiired...

I'm sure SNL will get onto the internet in wicked's neck of the woods eventually. But still, very frustrating.

And yes, Roast Lamb was very yummy

Sorry about Harry Quebert

We'll need to think about a new thread this week I suppose.

But now Hayloft... bring on the HBFs.
Oh. Stupid Cat has just jumped onto me and settled down. Gah.

How many more Versailles do you have Helen? I’ve still got Rellik on the box to watch. Not sure I’ll ever get to it.

Not sure it’s helped watching Harry Quebert so soon after reading the book.

Also off to the hayloft. Paella mentioned something about being hot, tasty and filling.

Morning wenches.

Bit chilly this morning. I prescribe HBFs for all wenches to assist with keeping warm.

Morning. Been raining here. Is sunnier now, which is good because I need to put some washing on...

Yet more cat vom, at the other end of the sofa this time, so I get to wash another cushion cover and throw. Am going to try and find some sensibly priced mattress protectors and see if that works (putting them between the throw and the sofa, so I don't have to keep washing the covers.) because, really, I can do without this level of arsing about 1st thing...

Where can I get my prescription filled LetUs?

Oh - I had a dream where COmtess emailed to say she'd been ill but would be back soon.

Need to get DS ready and out the door... Have a good day all.

Morning
Trying to summon the energy to get moving but ScaredyCat is snuggled up with me under the covers purring loudly. Am feeling mildly cold-y, so really ought to get moving & get some fresh air

Would you like an incentive then Fancy?
Go see if Armie is outside in your garden...

Though if you have a cold then you need to stay warm and wrapped up. Best borrow Aiden's coat before you go out there. Or Aramis says you can borrow his cloak.

Evening wenches.

We watched the Strictly results too. Foregone conclusion, but the dance-off was a bit of a shock.

DH doesn't know the result of the Ryder Cup yet. He hasn't finished watching it, and has been avoiding his mates, his phone, news programmes, me, anyone who might tell him. I think he must know but he's saying nothing.

Evening wenches.

Sorry, the space under Aidan’s coat is already taken. Also wouldn’t mind finding Armie in my garden

You can get your prescription filled in a variety of places Helen

Agree re Strictly Apricot. MrApricot must be hiding in the dungeon if he’s managed to avoid the golf result.

Emotionally knackered, is it November yet? Having on a Monday

I may join you in that Wicked. I’ve just been helping DS2 with his homework. You know, the stuff I suggested he do over the weekend (he did do some at the weekend) because he’d be tired tonight and probably wouldn’t feel like doing it and wouldn’t be able to concentrate properly. Much complaining by him of “I’m tiiiiiiiirrreeeeddddd”.

Also DH has told me that he’s been offered tickets for the football for tomorrow night and that DS1 has said he’ll go with him. I’ve asked him what he’s planning to do with DS2 when I’m out at yoga. Oh no, he says, he forgot. FFAS. Could he go to my sister’s? Oh yes, I’m sure BestFriend wouldn’t mind going out of her way both there and back. He’s going to have to come with me and sit outside the room. Thanks DH. Do I ever forget any of your activities and plan things for me, or not check with you first that it’s convenient. No I fucking well do not. Fucking fucksake fuck.
