But until it arrives, the wenches will be snuggling up with the HBFs in the hibernacle. Smile

Evening. Lovely day here, I've been sitting in the garden, but it's nippy bloody freezing when the sun goes in.

Hope LetUs got to appointment and managed to get homework done. Confused

Oh, poor Helen.

DH has gone gallivanting again with his friends. No planes involved this time.

Oooooooooooohhh Dr Athos and his thermometer he'd better take my temperature - repeatedly & thoroughly, to make sure that he has a good sample of results to study..

I'm still sniffling, but not too bad atm. It is jolly cold outside though. I think I heard rumours of a frost tonight which wouldn't surprise me given the temperature. That would do nasty thing to the pear and plum blossom and subsequent harvest Sad

DS is now whining about being told to turn off the xbox. FFAS - I'm tempted to just lob the thing out the window but the meltdown would just be hideous. One of my friends deleted games off hers when the DC annoyed her too much - respect. I'm not hard-core enough. (And I also don't know how to.)

What will you be rewatching while you have peace and quiet Apricot?

ApricotCrush · 10/04/2019 21:00

I don't watch much TV when I'm on my own Helen, but I have one episode of season 3 Shetland left, so I'll probably watch that at some point.

Sacked off homework in the end. Traffic wasn’t too bad thankfully and I didn’t go the wrong way (a special talent of mine). Did a bit of shopping which DS2 loved. I could tell he was particularly fond of it by the incessant whinging and whining.

Hope Doctor Athos has well and truly sorted you out Helen.

Enjoy Shetland, if you get to it, Apricot.

Today I have mostly watched American Gods. You were right Helen that reading the book first (not finished it yet) would help.

FancyFancy · 10/04/2019 22:56

We would make an awesome team letus - my special ability is missing my exit on large roundabouts & having to go round again.

LetUsPrey · 10/04/2019 23:36

[grin) Fancy. Hang on, whilst I turn around in this supermarket car park

I should head to the hayloft. Night

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 10/04/2019 23:37

LetUs - twitter.com/TVLine/status/1115962649152565248

Can I join the team? I'm an excellent navigator, but sometimes I get my left and right mixed up Blush

Have had enough of working (thought I'd already posted that, but obviously not) and now my bed should be warm because Athos is in it I put the electric blanket on about 15 minutes ago.

Night all.

FancyFancy · 10/04/2019 23:52

Of course you can helen. I also no one will be surprised to know am phenomenally sweary and have a good line in rude hand gestures when driving....

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/04/2019 07:45

Shock at sweary hand gestures Grin

Is cloudy here and a lot milder than yesterday - no frost. Hurrah!!

LetUsPrey · 11/04/2019 09:29

Morning wenches.

I sometimes have a bet with myself to see if I can get to the traffic lights at the first main junction after leaving work without swearing. It doesn’t happen very often Grin

The trailer popped up on my Facebook yesterday Helen. I shall have to investigate getting Netflix, don’t think it’s part of Prime.

Sunny this morning and hopefully it’s not as breezy as it has been.

Not sure what plans are today.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 11/04/2019 10:28

I always missing exits while I'm thinking of something else and I always have to think about which way left and right are Grin

ApricotCrush · 11/04/2019 18:01

Afternoon. Beautiful day here, but still cold.

I've put my back out lifting the hoover. Have you finished with Dr. Athos Helen? I could do with a good pummelling. Grin

Oh, me too with the driving. I did the roundabout thing last Saturday when driving back from meal with friends. On the same journey some time ago, DH said "Don't go down there, it's the motorway......................... right, so you're now on the motorway..........." Confused

Netflix and Amazon Prime are different LetUs, you have to pay for both, but they both do a month's free trial if you want to binge watch something.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/04/2019 18:20

Here is Dr Athos for you Apricot you will have to leave all housework to MrA, or get an HBF to do the cleaning for you. (I have no HBF-with-hoover photos to post - you can use your imagination or make do with

Evening wenches.

Can just see it now. Wench gets pulled over by Police, gets asked why she was driving a bit erratically. Well, officer I was just thinking of something. Let me show you these pictures on my phone...

Doctor Athos is ready to get really stuck in and is flexing his fingers for you Apricot.

Had a google about the Netflix thing. I can watch it via the fire stick but, as you say, I’d have to subscribe as, unless they release the full series of Lucifer in one go, a free trial thing won’t be enough.

Been sitting outside again. Am loving this week off.

LetUsPrey · 11/04/2019 18:23

Oh Helen, as you say just because there’s no malice doesn’t mean they’re not twats.

Athos would make sure it felt like your birthday every day.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 11/04/2019 19:41

Maybe we should go on a wench road trip, that should be fun Grin

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 11/04/2019 19:52

Oh, I had to order a new kettle, a red one obviously Smile

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/04/2019 20:45

Grin I could live with that.

New pic on twitter too - all my not-birthdays arriving at once then Grin

Glad to hear that you're enjoying American Gods now LetUs

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/04/2019 20:49

I thought you'd already got a red kettle wicked - or was that a microwave?

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 11/04/2019 20:58

That was a microwave Helen, and I also got a red coffee maker about a year ago Smile

ApricotCrush · 11/04/2019 21:14

Thank you for Dr Athos and his flexing fingers.

How insensitive of your work colleagues Helen. I think I would have said something sarcastic.

I've finished Shetland Letus. Although I've seen it before it was nice to rewatch. As you say, lovely Jimmy.

LetUsPrey · 11/04/2019 21:26

Wench road trip would have to have no specific destination in mind and we’d hopefully end up somewhere fabulous!

May the new kettle bring you many lovely hot drinks Wicked.

I’ve been looking for our summer holiday. I’m going to have to stop because I’m going a bit “holiday search blind”.

FancyFancy · 11/04/2019 21:40

Dangerous business hoovering apricot - best avoided if at all possible. I hope your back improves soon.

helen - would you prefer Vinnie or apricot to come round & sort them out?

@ idea of wench road trip - sounds like we'd spend our time going round & round the same roundabout Grin

LetUsPrey · 11/04/2019 23:02

Round and round a roundabout whilst swearing and making hand gestures Grin

We’ve got something on about healthy eating and weight and stuff. They’ve demonstrated a “string test” to find out whether any fat you’ve got is in a not great place or something. I’m contemplating having a go at that tomorrow. Perhaps I should do something very energetic all night to try and burn some calories?

I’ll head to the hayloft to see if there’s any HBFs to help with this. Some sit ups, press ups, lots of stretching off, some thrusts

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/04/2019 23:03

Wench road trip - round and round the roundabout, and heading the wrong way down a motorway? Oh - and driving into half-built housing estates on a dead end road, judging by the time Elk used her phone as a sat nav.

My work twats aren't worth apricot's time - she has more important HBFs things to do. Vinnie is quite welcome to come and act badly snarl at them as long as I don't have to put up with him too.

Hayloft calls, night all...
