Swagger Inn thread 163 - it's raining --HBFs-- rain. FML...

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

Emergency new thread, with suitable decorations.
Fill your boots...

Grubby HBFs in leather are in our imaginations residence.
Sense of humour required, and tolerance for domestic tedium.

Agreed Helen, I liked the tie too.

We haven't even started WotW yet.

Morning wenches.

Progress made with gift buying. The card writing schedule has been postponed.

at the haircut

We’ve done ep1 of WotW. I’ve been listening to the Jeff Wayne version on the Echo. Emptying the dishwasher whilst making ooooooo laaaaaaa noises and loving Richard Burton’s voice.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuullllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....

WotW was quite good I thought, DH not impressed. I don't think I've actually read the book (or I've forgotten it) so am less easily unimpressed

Lots of excellent TV on the way too according to the Radio Times. Just seen as well that Shetland’s got another two series (at least I think I’ve just read that)

Watching Miranda to cheer myself up after today.

Evening
Sadly I got home from work too late for cards - by the time I'd cooked dinner & done some jobs it was too late to start. And tomorrow I'm going to FancyMan's, so no cards then ..

The chances of anythiiiiing coming from Mars....are a million to one........ But still theeeeey come. da da daaaaah....doodle-ooh doodle-ooh...... DA DA DAAAAAH

Morning wenches. I may have on occasion been known to sing along to the one about Nathaniel from WotW, emoting all over the kitchen

Chilly again. Trying a new exercise class tonight so probably no cards will get done.

Am loving all the WotW warbling I warbled up the stairs behind DS last night and got such a withering look from him

Never mind Fancy - I'm sure that LetUs can keep most of your list entertained for you until you've written some cards. Judging by the decorations - she has done already - they're looking very tired.

Have a good day all...

Morning
she really has entertained him

It is impossible not to sing along to WotW, what is it with DC not liking our singing?

Evening. I did the food shop while DH was collecting DGS and thought it wasn't so cold as of late.

Hope you enjoy the new exercise class LetUs. And yaaaaaaay for 2 more seasons of Shetland. Love Jimmy.

I've got my op tomorrow afternoon. The letter says expect to be in the department for 4 hours. Seems a bit excessive, although I'm probably on some sort of list.

Still no cards done or tree decorated.

Evening. We have no tree, let alone a decorated one.

In more exciting news, I finally quit the BoringOfficeJob today - hurrah! And will do double the other BoringOfficeJob in the New Year.

Good luck tomorrow Apricot - will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Evening wenches.

It’s just as well I took care of the HBFs earlier because I think they’re going to have to do all the work tonight after that exerciseclass.

And pfft to unappreciative DC to our singing,

Fingers crossed that all goes well and speedily tomorrow Apricot

I wonder if Wicked is doing her wenchy best to boost the UK economy?

Knowing Wicked and her shopping trips, I suspect so. You just lie back now and let the HBFs take care of you etc.

Morning. It's frosty - my fault, didn't put the frost blanket thing on the car.

Have a good day all...

Morning wenches.

Athos misunderstood what you meant about the frost blanket Helen and decided to cover you with himself.

All the luck today Apricot. Doctors Athos and Marchal have said they’ll double team to look after you.

Morning
Good luck with the op apricot

Frosty this morning - should get going and clear the windscreen.......

Just letting everyone know I'm still alive.

The HBFs would only steam up the car windows on the inside Fancy so maybe best to just stay in the tav.

Are you still boosting our economy Wicked or have you flown back, having had to find a way to fit a full size cardboard cut out of Kylo Ren into your suitcase?

Evening.

Glad you're still alive WW, hope you're having fun.

I've had the op, there were four polyps in there. Very painful but worth it not to have a GA. Back home now feeling a bit battered. Drs. Athos and Marchal can get me a cuppa, that's all I want at the moment.

Ouchy Apes Here, have some

I came back on Monday, late, cause the flight was delayed.

Evening. Glad you're back home now apricot - and WW

Apricot - the FAF is waiting for you with a (though he might bring some wine for himself...)

at steamed up windows LetUs - and Athos can cover me all he likes

Evening wenches.

So pleased the operation went well Apricot. Doctors Athos and Marchal will take care of you however you want them to.

Urgh at delayed flight Wicked but good that you’re back home safely.

Two lots of homework done with DS2 tonight. It’s fucking never ending.

I asked the Echo to play Thunderchild from WotW whilst DS1 was in the kitchen. I had a bit of a singalong. He did not look overly thrilled

I have a cold, my roomie was really sick poor thing, hope I get well until the Star Wars premiere.

I think that wicked will find that her flight was delayed over the excess luggage that they had to fit in, and the fact that they had more passengers than seats (due to a lifesize Kylo cut-out being in a seat)

and for homework hell, and UUuuuuuuuuuuulllllllllllllllllllllllaaaaaa (etc) DS and I used to sing along to Foo Fighters in the car... now he just sticks headphones in and ignores whatever I have on

Cards written: 0
I have to do some stuff though since we have friends visiting at the weekend and need to give them card and pressie to take away with them...
