Swagger Inn 158 - Weather Turning Chilly - It’s Important To Layer Up - HBFs To The Rescue

[LetUsPrey]

Layering up is indeed the best way to stay warm as the weather turns chilly. Fortunately HBFs also come with cloaks and coats which makes them doubly effective

We're back at Fancy's drinking cups of tea.
Ain't no party like a wench-style party

Morning wenches.

Have got up watched some tv, read for a bit and now I’m heading for a shower. HBFs are welcome to join me —I wish—

HBI was at sportingactivity

Today’s offerings

Slip in and you’ll be in the same position as before
Get back in position and ... knees
Pull it back and then harder
Not doing it on each other, doing it by yourself
And then get up (this was more of a shouty command)

I need to empty the washing machine, tidy up, do the ironing, go to my mother’s. So I’m watching tv.

Afternoon.

Wenches safely despatched homewards

OMG Cameo?! I will have taped that ToTP letus, really looking forward to watching it now

We may have had a couple of rewatches - some things never change , like Porthos being an arse, Athos being grumpy & Aramis being as faf as a faf thing who fell in a vat of fafness

Larry apparently the singer from Cameo, not Richard. Important to have the facts to hand when you’re watching it later Fancy.

And after Aramis had been retrieved from the vat of fafness he was dried off with the towel of fafness and threw on —temporarily— the Robe of Faf.

I should be getting on with the ironing.

Evening wenches, we're home.

Elk, you're hilarious. Ah yes, shield wall, absolutely, that was it exactly. We had a very entertaining evening, the play wasn't really my cup of tea, but it was interesting and the FAF and lovely wenches made it worthwhile.

We went to visit Hampton Court Palace today which was awesome.

Mealtimes this weekend have been all over the place, we only had two meals yesterday and my stomach is wondering what's going on, so I'm going to go and cook something and then settle down to watch Strictly.

Oh, at HBI.

Glad you're back ok apricot & hope you're less hungry now.

DD is doing revision for her mocks next week. She has a friend round I never found revision that amusing.......

Evening all. Also home and a bit pooped. DS wants family film night - MIB II, so I shall be doing dutiful parenting and watching, instead of blethering on here...

Was a very fun weekend away.

Fancy - is DD having as much fun revision as we had with the re-watch?

Special revision Aramis can underline me with his highlighter

Hurrah for safely returned wenches and for fun times!

Ironing done. Strictly results watched. DH being annoying.

I’m watching Dynasties - penguins this week. Or pingwings as The Batch pronounces it

Nothing's as much fun as a rewatch helen

Fucking hell. I thought the chimps were a bit tricky to watch last week but this penguin episode is fucking traumatic

Is it worse than the fluffy duckling?

Waaaaaaaay worse than fluffy duckling.

I’m having to watch some Avengers Assemble to get over it

Have some happy images to ease the trauma........

Haven't watched Dynasties yet. Oh dear - worse than the duckling?!

I think I need an early night - which would be why I'm sitting on the sofa still.

Or do you respond to the carrot rather than the stick?

Carrots are always good Though of course it depends who holds the stick, and if I can wrestle it off them.

You Athos lot always did seem to like a carrot or two. Us on Team A prefer peaches.........

Have a carrot.....

Oh, peaches are good too

Looks like Athos has a carrot and stick there (though that GIf is a bit choppy and tends to make me feel a bit seasick...

Anyway - favourite quotes of the weekend:
Marquis de Posa: "Let happiness flow from your horn of plenty"
He and Elk:

And amidst a discussion about the teaching of healthy relationships in school, and how they don't apply the teaching to representations of relationships in film and music:
Me: "True - 'Sleepless in Seattle' is well dodgy really - Meg Ryan stalks Tom Hanks..."
Fancy: "Exactly, and who ends up getting murdered?"
Me/Elk: ???! "Erm...?"
Fancy: "No!! In Real Life stalking examples!"
Me/Elk: [relieved] "Oh.. Right. I didn't recall Tom Hanks being Thrown off the top of the Empire State Building at the end."

Can I have a carrot and a stick and a peach please? Or does the peach go to the HBF?

Agree about the film thing.

We’ve watched Doctor Who. Jolly good.

I have a day’s leave tomorrow. I plan to do not very much at all, perhaps a bit of washing, some tv watching, dentist in the afternoon (boooo).

Hurrah for Monday off LetUs

I'm going to the hayloft now.

Ooooo speedy!
