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

A fine motto letus

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 00:10

Hayloft for me

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 07:55

Morning wenches

Friiiiiiidddaaaayyyyyyyyyy wooohoooooooo!!

There’s only me up. Not such a surprise for DH when he’s actually got some time off, and not a surprise at all re DS1, but DS2 still being asleep at this time is quite unusual. Hurrah!

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 22/02/2019 09:39

Hurrah for quiet start to the morning LetUs - I had a relatively late start with DS as well. Did the rounds of the livestock and then left him plugged into the xbox and went back to bed - hurrah!!!
Slight interruption when he yodelled up the stairs that he'd won a game, and then I snoozed until just gone 9 Grin Now I'm on the computer and have to work Sad

Ho hum...

I shall contemplate the WOTW (Way of the Wench) and Athos limbering up....

FancyFancy · 22/02/2019 10:24

Morning
Yay for lie-ins helen.
Am sat here with ScaredyCat thinking I should get up & start on the gardening I didn't get round to doing yesterday......

ApricotCrush · 22/02/2019 16:52

Afternoon wenches. Beautiful day here and I haven't been out of the house. Still, both eBay and Depop have offers this weekend, so I've been busy photographing and writing listings etc.

It must be me with that trailer then Helen. ----

Hope everyone has had a good day.

Evening wenches.

Going back to bed (unless because of illness) is ace.

Been beautiful here too. Work was work. DH took DS2 swimming so I’ve stayed at home, watching tv, and eating stuff I shouldn’t like Magnum ice cream lollies.

Sportingactivity tonight.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 22/02/2019 17:59

I'm having Wine in a wine glass! Grin

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 18:52

Very civilised Wicked Grin

I’ll be drinking cider out of the bottle when I get back from sportingactivity

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 22/02/2019 19:06

Ooh, living on the edge there Letus Grin

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 19:26

It’s the one of things I do if I want to annoy my mother, in an affectionate teasing her kind of way. Not that she’s coming round tonight or anything, but it’s one of the things Grin

Evening
Ooh apricot I've been listing stuff on ebay again - I so need to clear out my spare room and get back to getting rid of one thing every day.

letus
cheers ww

I have been doing some gardening - ScaredyCat came out with me & ran up trees for no discernible reason.

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 21:49

I was going to say if I was a cat, I’d be running up and down trees for no discernible reason too, but that’s probably a lie Grin

Pleased to report that HBI was at sportingactivity.

Get the head tucked in
Go in slow motion, it really works the hips
On your front - this is quite hard - push your hips down

There may have been more but the grappling is sometimes a bit distracting.

I have my cider now and we’re going to watch NCIS before I head to the chateau where Aramis will test the slow motion and hips theory. For science!

FancyFancy · 22/02/2019 21:58

Hoorah for science Grin

Oh I don't know letus, cats make running around pointlessly with a silly expression on their faces look like fun, I'm sure we'd all do it.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 22/02/2019 22:10

Evening. Work has been a bit bonkers today. This afternoon I borrowed a couple of children for DS to play with (and to make me feel less guilty about being busy with work).

Then we went out (so that DH could have someone to drive him home afterwards) But also caught up with friends, so that was nice.

DH is now cooking me a cordon blu meal Omlette for tea - Oh! Wenches! Scruffy chick is all growed up - she laid her first egg today!!! (And DS ate it for lunch)

I did do some washing today but left it too late to dry and now it is outside getting darked and fogged on.

Also, DH says I'm not to tell you, but he got Daniel Day Lewis and Danny John Jules mixed up obvs he knows the difference, but he was struggling to remember DJJ's actual name, start with the 'D' and then it just went downhill from there. The entertainment possibilities are wonderful for swapping them in their roles.

FancyFancy · 22/02/2019 22:54

FFS, typed a post & forgot to press 'post', refreshed the page & lost it

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 22/02/2019 22:57

Oh, that's a bugger when that happens...

I should really head for the hayloft. Stupid Cat has just jumped off so this is my chance...

LetUsPrey · 22/02/2019 23:10

at MrHelen’s mix up and awwwww at ScruffyChick

I’m sure there’ll be at least one HBF who can be exasperated at you Fancy Grin

I should also head to the chateau

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 22/02/2019 23:14

I waited too long and she jumped back on. Ho hey hum.

I'd like to be a cat - or at least, one of my spoilt little fur monsters. they have a very easy life. Oh well - Stupid Cat is going to be kicked off. Then I shall head to the hayloft and test the slow motion and hips theory with Athos. For science - as you say LetUs Grin WOTW and all that.

FancyFancy · 22/02/2019 23:30

They can be stern if they look like this.....

Don’t forget to make proper notes of the experiment Helen. If you don’t, you’ll have to doooo iiiiittt all again

Fuckinell Fancy

On that note, chateau with Aramis

LetUsPrey · 23/02/2019 10:03

Morning wenches. Oh dear, I seem to have forgotten to make notes re the science experiment. Hopefully Helen remembered because otherwise wenches will have to re-do it.

Beautiful day here. Washing is on the line.

DS2 seems to be in a good mood and has agreed to do his homework.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 23/02/2019 11:09

Oh nooooooooooooooooo Sad LetUs - I didn't make any records of method, or process, or result. Why didn't you remind me last night? I'm going to have to do it all again. And It's going to take forever if we have to stop and take notes. Whatever will I do? Everywench will have to take part - repeatedly - to give us a better... (what's the word?) sample size. More meaningful result, etc.

It it truly a glorious day outside though - I've let the chickens out and it's sunny and mild and there are primroses out now, and a couple of crocuses whose bulbs haven't been eaten by squirrels, and daffodils (mini and normal) Last night's washing is waiting to be joined by this morning's effort. I must go through our box of seeds today and work out what we need to buy vs what we have left over still.

I also ran the hoover over the carpet (thrillz) and it's stopped doing the uneven suction thing, so washing out the filter did the job - hurrah!

FancyFancy · 23/02/2019 11:23

Morning. Sunny here too. May even do some more gardening. And laundry - the novelty of outside drying hasn't worn off yet Grin

Have also been ploughing through Les Mis. Can't decide what I think of it yet except that certain bits irritate me.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 23/02/2019 16:24

I have been weeding the garden. My back is not impressed with my effort. Please send Dr Athos to provide emergency massage (and other relevant treatments).
