Swagger Inn 159 - It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas......

[ApricotCrush]

The HBFs have promised to come down the wenches' chimneys on Christmas Eve

LOL at TapAsPresent. I have found it under the sink (phew - no need for DH to ever know I'd mislaid it).

LetUs - make sure you discuss pole technique with Brandon too. Make sure it's the right length and is held at the correct angle in the right position. There is a knack to placing your pole correctly and he may need a fair bit of practice.

How did you get on with the photo albums apricot?

Hurrah for found tap that was never actually lost honest!

I am pretty sure that Brandon has his pole placement absolutely correct but, as wenches know, it’s so important to be thorough about things so I shall make sure that it’s at the best angle for optimum movement. Length BTW is perfect

Morning wenches.

FTFO subconscious with another work dream. WTF.

Also didn’t sleep particularly well anyway so my mood is not great.

Still chilly here brrrr

for grumpy LetUs the HBFs will make sure there's a nice cup of tea waiting for you at work...

Still icicle weather here (but without the icicles, because there's no rain and nothing's thawed)

Hope everyone has a good day

yes yes please. Yespleaseandthankyouverymuch.

Cloaks and coats and HBFs at the ready.

Afternoon. Not a bad day here, but cold. We went a walk over the other side of the main road this afternoon and found some more houses to renovate.

Still doing the photos Helen. I seem to have about 30,000 pics on my computer, family, screencaps and other stuff Athos/Tom. They're all in albums, but need updating, numbering and backing-up. They all have to be in chronological order, I'm very a bit pedantic about it.

Hope everyone's had a good day, or at least as good as possible.

Something horrible happened in the next village yesterday. A man shot his two sons and then killed himself, I´ts just insanity. The poor mother

Oh that's awful wicked

Sounds like a very big project Apricot - our file are all stored by year/month, but i wish I had some way to tag them easily to find specific pictures.

Evening wenches.

Wicked.

You have my admiration Apricot for that project. I can’t even properly sort the photos on my iPad without getting —distracted— bored.

Have had to complain about someone at work again. Am obviously wasting my breath but I kid myself that something will actually get done. It won’t.

at LetUs's work - as ever. The HBFs are going to deal with them... (once they've finished dealing with you )

What an impressive array of weaponry and an even more impressive display of weapon handling.

I’m off to the hayloft to help the HBFs discharge their weapons

Night all

Oh that is awful ww

Double helpings of faf all round needed I think

Work is v busy, not sure I have the energy to say anything else....

I need to stop working now...

Morning wenches.

Let me help you with that FAF Fancy, in all the ways. And Athos needs to tell you off about working so late Helen. He’s on his way.

Bored of it being dark still when I get up. Still it’s Friday so woohoooooo!

Morning
Hoping for an earlier finish today and then a weekend without bringing any work home I hope. The excitement!

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhh

Oh - plumber. Well... not an imaginary HBF, but yay for getting the kitchen tap sorted!

Fingers crossed for a good day all roudn and work being bearable.

School run - laters!

Evening wenches. I look at the sunrise and sunset times every day, and it's drawing out about two minutes a day on both, so that's half an hour a week. Makes me feel better.

Shocking about that father WW.

We're going to DD's for a Chinese later.

Have a good evening all.

Evening wenches. Hope you got your early finish Fancy.

Hope Athos sorted out your plumbing Helen.

Can I come with you for the Chinese please Apricot? DH is out straight after work until late and I can’t be arsed making anything for me.

Lovely way to think about the sunrise and sunset times per week

DS2 has been swearing again. FFS.

DS2 swearing in school? FFS indeed.

Hurrah for lengthening days, and LOL at Athos and plumbing. I bloody wish..

Have just finished Job1 for the day. Will start on Job2 later - once I have tea on the go. It won't be a Chinese, sadly. More like shepherd's pie, without the mash on top. So, mince then. Haute cuisine and all that

Today, twitter tells me that:
the word “freelancer” comes from knights who were FREE to use their LANCE for whoever paid most, rather than being tied to a single lord.
Sounds a lot more exciting than my version. But also slightly more dangerous

Free to use their lance for whoever paid most. Not being tied to a single lord. So much wenchness in those two sentences

Thankfully not swearing at school, just at home when he has one of his temper outbursts. All in a proper context so I suppose that’s something —not really—

I’ve had some toast. Whoop. Can’t have a drink as I’ve said I’ll pick DH up from the station later. Pfft. Only fair because he picked me up from a night out a few weeks ago but still. Pfft.

Commiserations letus, I have to pick DD up from the cinema later

You can't drink? Oh you poor wenches!

And I’ve had to listen to both DC being very loud whilst watching the football. What a way to spend a Friday evening.
