Swagger Inn 170. Autumn is here with a vengeance. I think we'll just hide under the duvet --with HBFs-- until Spring.

Evening wenches.

Impressive shelving Wicked

Work was absolute bobbins for reasons of people being twats, but I don’t have to deal with them until next Wednesday so fuck them.

Such a lovely idea Apricot, putting together photo CDs.

Dishwasher salt shortage is a new one Fancy.

I remember watching Die Hard at the cinema. It was a very early date with my first boyfriend.

I plan to drink my lovely vodka and then go to bed.

Evening. Am watching Homeland series 2 and Peter has just turned up - reminded me of Comtess Grin

LetUsPrey · 24/12/2021 09:14

Morning wenches.

I don’t know who Peter is but I’m happy he’s turned up Grin

Lots of stuff to do today, little finishing off bits and stuff and a few visits. Might just have another brew first.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 24/12/2021 09:53

Morning all. Happy Christmas Eve! Happy No Work day!

Off to the inlaws today so I need to get moving (once I've read the entire internet) Hmm Grin

FancyFancy · 24/12/2021 10:43

Morning.
Peter is Peter Quinn - he's looking quite fit at the moment, but it all goes a bit shit for him in later series.

Am also off later today, fingers crossed the traffic is ok.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 24/12/2021 11:54

Just to clarify, that was different kinds of pickled herring in the supermarket Grin

Merry Christmas Smile

ApricotCrush · 24/12/2021 17:01

Afternoon. Well today has gone to pot and I've just remembered that there's a washload still in the machine that should have been removed this morning. Anyway, I'm past caring now. I'm not entertaining until Monday so it doesn't matter. Confused

Oh yes, I remember Peter Quinn, but we gave up on Homeland after series 2 I think.

Happy travels Helen, although I imagine you're there now.

Merry Christmas WW, hope you've had a lovely day.

Evening all.

Hope that Wicked has had a fun day full of pickled herring Grin
Pfft to the washing Apricot the HBFs don't care if you don't have any clean clothes Grin Anyway, wet shirts are good - yes?

I have searched the FAF files, and I'm sure I had Peter Quinn once but I can't find him, so you'll have to make do with alternative decorations.

It is very wet in the land of the in-laws, but no HBFs there are some cracking Christmas light displays.

Hope that every wench has safe travels (fancy) and got xmas prep. and bits and pieces under control (LetUs) I have just peeled potatoes, so I have contributed (DH and MIL are doing prep in the kitchen and if I try to fit in there too, it won't work. Oh, the hardship Grin.

Evening wenches.

I’ve had a little Christmas Eve drink so I’m having a merry Christmas already. Visits done, everything that didn’t move is wrapped. Bring. It. On.

Poor Peter Sad. Hope Wench journeys were trouble free.

Oh no Helen. What a shame. How unfortunate.

Hope you’ve had a lovely day Wicked.

I may have another drink. Won’t be having one tomorrow.

FancyFancy · 25/12/2021 00:06

Journey was fairly straightforward thanks, have visited parents and had dinner with DSis and family.

Merry Christmas wenches Xmas Smile

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 25/12/2021 08:51

Happy Christmas all Xmas Grin Hope that everyone has a lovely day and no-one treads on lego whilst bare-footed.

LetUsPrey · 25/12/2021 09:34

Morning wenches.

Happy Christmas everywench!

Grin Helen, isn’t that all anyone could wish for?

Hope wenches have a joyful Christmas.

ApricotCrush · 25/12/2021 11:34

Morning!

Merry Christmas wenches! Xmas Grin

We're off to DS's shortly for the day.

Hope everywench has a lovely day. Wine

Hope you all had a lovely day, I'm back home again - spent the evening watching a trashy film (Mama Mia 2) with a glass of alcoholic ginger beer in my hand & a cat on my lap Smile The chap playing Young Bill was rather fit and far to young for me especially when all wet after a swim.

LetUsPrey · 26/12/2021 12:18

Afternoon wenches.

Hope everywench had a lovely day yesterday. Your evening sounds fab Fancy! Bit of a hiccup here seeing as Covid got in the way and we had to rejig things a bit but it was still a lovely day.

A day of washing and lazing and jigsawing, followed by an evening out at LittleSis’s for her birthday.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 26/12/2021 12:41

Afternoon all. Weather is gloomy, wrapping paper is all folded and tidied away, turkey has been stripped, much chocolate has been eaten, one jigsaw has been done.

Hope that everyone had a good day yesterday. Glad to hear that things went well despite covid LetUs and Fancy is home safely and enjoying the trashy tv Grin

ApricotCrush · 26/12/2021 15:36

Afternoon wenches.

Had a lovely day yesterday. Supposed to be a DD's today but she's spent the morning in A&E with an infected cyst on her back which has gone into an abscess and has had to be lanced. Sad We're still going round but son-in-law will be cooking, rather later than planned.

Hope everyone is having a good day.

OP posts:
SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 26/12/2021 15:44

Oh no Sad poor ApricotDD Sad Hope that lancing it sorts it out and it all heals up.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 26/12/2021 20:31

Hope your DD is feeling better now Apes.

No pickled herring today Grin

Been to nice neighbours for fika this afternoon Smile

LetUsPrey · 26/12/2021 22:53

Evening wenches.

Oh your poor DD Apricot. Hope they’ve dealt with it thoroughly and she recovers quickly.

Fika with neighbours sounds lovely Wicked.

Didn’t do much today but have been out at LittleSis’s celebrating her birthday. I’d quite like to sleep now thank you.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 26/12/2021 23:30

LetUs the HBFs think you should be in bed too.

LetUsPrey · 27/12/2021 12:53

Afternoon wenches.

Didn’t sleep well for reasons sadly not connected to Helen’s post.

Have done washing, homework with DS2, then took brilliantly bonkers IL relatives round to LittleSis’s house for a visit. Back home and I think I’ll spend some time jigsawing.

ApricotCrush · 27/12/2021 13:03

Afternoon wenches, Happy Day After Boxing Day!

Well, I was cooking for 11 today, but it's all gone wrong. DS's GF has been with someone who has today tested positive, and although we were at their house on Saturday we feel it's pushing it to see them all day today. So I'm down to 5 now as DS won't be seeing the DGC either. Sad

I've changed DD's dressing this morning as her DH didn't feel confident enough to do it and was worried he would hurt her. Poor kid has a huge hole in her back which is packed with gauze stuff, but they're coming round for lunch so she doesn't have to do anything.

Yay for fika with neighbours, birthday celebrations and HBFs in bed.

Oh, cross post with LetUs.

OP posts:
LetUsPrey · 27/12/2021 14:06

That’s such a shame though. And your poor DD, although good that you could help her and she’s able to relax at yours. Here’s hoping she heals quickly.

DH and DS2 have gone out to take relatives to the station and DS1 is in the bath. It’s very very quiet.
