Our entry is called "Let's just sauna" by a finnish band (although they sing in Swedish) I mean WTF. I'm a bit embarrassed.

FancyFancy · 09/03/2025 19:55

You're all ahead of me with Eurovision, I need to start prepping..........

LetUsPrey · 09/03/2025 20:05

Evening wenches.

Usual Sunday and also finished the knitting project I was doing, although today it was all sewing which is definitely not my strong point. Just ate a massive dinner and will no doubt soon feel quite sleepy.

Perhaps MrA will keep at ground level for a little while longer!

No wonder you were too tired even for wine Wicked - that’s a lot of driving about and couch shopping. Hurrah for bargains though!

Also hurrah for a lovely visit with friends Fancy. Hope you’re back home with Chonk and Floof.

Not heard our Eurovision entry yet. Yours sounds erm interesting Wicked.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 09/03/2025 21:32

I think our entry is called "What the Hell just happened?" and keeps changing tempo. Odd.

LetUsPrey · 10/03/2025 07:22

Morning wenches.

Appropriate song title if nothing else.

Looks quite bright outside but not sunny. Normal for March I’d think. Brain is well and truly resisting the Monday thing.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 10/03/2025 07:27

Morning all. Misty and high cloud here, so the sun is a silver smudge behind the trees, and it's a bit chilly, though no frost.

Hurrah for slippers - IdiotKitty left a sacrifice to the cat gods on the floor and I trod in it. Now he's on a windowsill looking at pigeons in the oak tree.

Have a good day all.

ApricotCrush · 10/03/2025 16:40

Afternoon. Not so nice today, cloudy and colder. I’ve just noticed DH is up the ladder again, I can see him through the landing window, but he’s on top of the porch so not high up.

I hate the sewing up LetUs. I managed to redesign the sleeves on my jumper and found a bit more yarn, so I’ve finished the knitting but I’m putting off the sewing. Hmm

Hope everyone’s had a good day.

Evening all. <stick crash mats around the porch for MrA>

Nothing exciting happening here - work and a bit of washing and doing the sporting taxi thing. That's it. <bores self>

LetUsPrey · 10/03/2025 19:21

Morning wenches.

DH was poorly last night which is most unlike him. It was hopefully something he ate rather than a bug, given that we saw my parents and LovelyMIL yesterday. He’s feeling much better which seems to back up the iffy food.

Hurrah for slippers indeed Helen. Perhaps IdiotKitty wants you to tell the future from the entrails?

It’s such a pain isn’t it Apricot?

Work was very full on and I’m really going to try for an early night.

LetUsPrey · 11/03/2025 07:05

Morning wenches.

DH claims to be all better and has gone off to work. DS2 however isn’t too good but with different stuff. Difficulty is he says nothing’s wrong (that’s why he didn’t stop coughing for an hour late last night) and gets very snappy and arsey. Le sigh.

Disturbed sleep and mad dreams do not make for a restful night.

But we carry on with the day.

Have great days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/03/2025 07:33

Morning all. Reading the entrails, I can see it is bright and sunny outside, though there is high cloud and it's forecast to close over and go cold again for the rest of the week. Boo.

Hope that the ManshapedLetUs all continue to improve and stop being grumpy arses. (DH has just appeared here, all tired and grumpy.) I had weird dreams too last night, but frankly they're too dull to explain, and wouldn't add anything to your lives if I did! Just left me going WTF was that about? when I woke up.

Have a good day all. I must motivate myself to do morning exercise. urgh.

FancyFancy · 11/03/2025 13:19

Afternoon
Fingers crossed for MrLetus's continued recovery & no ill effects for the rest of you.

Am back at work <sighs> A busy week or so ahead & the possibility of various parental stuff to be dealt with, although with any luck this will be moving things along to bring about some improvements to the situation.

ApricotCrush · 11/03/2025 17:00

Afternoon. Quite a nice day but a bit colder. DH has been up the ladder again, but all the high stuff is done and he should finish tomorrow.

I’ve been tidying drawers with the intention of having a chuck out, but you know how it is…

Hope FamilyLetUs are all well and it wasn’t a bug.

Also hope the parental stuff helps the situation Fancy.

LetUsPrey · 11/03/2025 21:01

Evening wenches.

We’re 99% sure it was something DH ate (possibly the eggs) as DS2 and I are both fine and DH is fully recovered. Just as well because my sympathy in that sort of situation - however much it’s deserved - wears off quite quickly 😁

DS2’s mood seems to have improved.

Here’s hoping for improvements happening soon Fancy.

Can totally relate to the drawer tidying and chucking out stuff Apricot.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 11/03/2025 21:28

Evening all.

Nothing exciting happening here. Fingers crossed for Fancy's parental situation improving and sewing up projects and tidying drawers.

IdiotKitty is asleep in a box; I need to prep lunch for tomorrow..

LetUsPrey · 12/03/2025 07:17

Morning wenches.

Rubbish sleep, weird dreams - might as well put that on autocomplete or whatever it’s called.

Car is frosted over which is just rude. Best get on.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 12/03/2025 07:43

Morning. No frost here, we have rainy drizzly cloudy weather. I have a cold - woe is me. Scratchy throat, and dry cough. Doooooooooooooooooom. <plays tiny violin>

ApricotCrush · 12/03/2025 16:18

Afternoon. Nice day but a bit chilly when I went to retrieve the bin from the end of the drive.

No painting today thank goodness.

Sorry about the cold Helen, hope it doesn't last too long and awww at IdiotKitty asleep in a box.

OP posts:
LetUsPrey · 12/03/2025 20:40

Evening wenches.

Oh no Helen 😔. Hope it hasn’t developed into a full blown cold.

Sunny here too but chilly like with you Apricot.

Work was busy again.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 12/03/2025 22:21

Evening. It's cold, I'm sniffly. I want a hot bath and early night. Hmm Obviously that's not happening tonight.

<wraps all wenches in HBFs and blankets to keep warm>

LetUsPrey · 13/03/2025 07:04

Morning wenches.

Hope you at least got some decent sleep Helen
<checks medication stocks> Feel better soon <cwtch>

Chilly again this morning. I suggest a lock in.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 13/03/2025 07:36

I second that proposal of a lock in. <hides self in hayloft>

Tiiiiired, though I slept fine until 6am.I'm still a bit sniffly but not too bad really. There was a frost at some point this morning, because there was ice in the bird bath, but nothing on the grass so it lifted early on.

ApricotCrush · 13/03/2025 17:06

Afternoon. Cloudy and cold. I did a Sainsbury shop this morning and the wind was biting. Very strangely I met our friends who we meet for meals out and who live 15 miles away. Confused Apparently they'd been out with a relative and were passing and she wanted to get some stuff.

Hope the cold doesn't hang around Helen.

Have a good evening all.

OP posts:
LetUsPrey · 13/03/2025 20:03

Evening wenches.

That cold hopefully seems to be staying away Helen.

Icy winds here too Apricot. Was wishing I hadn’t left my hat at home this morning. What a nice surprise to see your friends!

Finished another knitting project this evening. Early night for me though as The Apprentice is on so I leave DH and DS2 to it.

LetUsPrey · 14/03/2025 07:16

Morning wenches.

Friiidddaaaaaayyyyyy hurrah!

Rubbish sleep and weird dreams boooooo but Friday so that helps.

Have great days wenches.
