Berrie, Lyra, Oggs and Zeb chat thread 14

[oggsfrog]

Was watchimg "The Deal" but dh has just gone to bed. Will now be watching "Angel" as I don't want to watch TB without him.
Drinking Chardonnay. Can't remember what make.

You must have a bloody good job if you can watch TB and drink wine while working.

Just realised you're probably working from home. D'oh!

Berrie, where are you?

Yup, been holed up in the bedroom all flippin' day. I can't face 16 hours in the newsroom when I'm on a double shift. Although wine in the newsroom would not be frowned upon. Journalists are well renowned for being hard drinkers.

I am here!
I was watching the Star Trek film drinking pink Cava. It was getting pretty boring but I saw it through to the end only for Dh to ask what happened as he was asleep!
Then had a terrible night's sleep dreaming that I walked in on Dh and another man.

I watched that last week. I enjoyed it. I liked the fella who played Jim, and having Zachary Quinto as spock was inspired.

Berrie, if you are not using the knitting book I sent could you possibly send it back to me? There's a scarf in there that I want to knit for my nephew for Christmas and I'll need to get started soon if I want to have any hope of finishing it in time .

Have you decided what you are going to do tomorrow?

God yes, keep meanng to do that sorry

Er...in the middle of big row at the moment so feel like throwing a strop and not 'having' my Birthday.

Better now

We are going out for lunch on my Mum. We will probably go for a little ride as my back is poor.

Glad you will be going out for nice food. Does dh have the day off?

Lyra, how is dp?

Yup Bank Holiday here.

Oh, of course. I forget. We don't have it up here.

You have it earlier, I read about it in the Times yesterday.

Dh tidying up for my Birthday...really ought to go down and chivvy kids to bed...am lying upstairs as my back hurts.Feeling fed up actually. Wonder if the next True Blood is up yet.

Any plans for tonight?
Dh has been out all day and is now back and knackered after driving over 400 miles. Don't think I'll be able to persuade him to watch TB

Have you heard of/seen Dollhouse?

Nope have not.
Am in bed to sleep now. Dh is on floor again as he says the memory foam topper hurts his back. We watched Lewis which was crap.
Where has dh been?

He drove to the other side of the country to pick up a sulki that he had bought on eBay.

Oops, almost forgot...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BERRIE!!!!!

what is a sulki?

Sulky

Oh I seeeee.

I was thinking it was what Berrie got when Oggs didn't send her RP for her birthday.

Happy birthday Berrie! It's mine on Friday so I'll be catching up with you soon enough.
Oggs, what does DH plan to do with this sulky?
DP went off to work this morning . I tried to persuade him he wasn't up to it (he spent all yesterday afternoon asleep so still recuperating) but he went anyway. The fool.

Birthday pressie for Berrie

Has he not arrived? He's got a big red ribbon tied around him in a bow. Pah! Bloody Royal Mail.

Here, have another one

Oggs, I intercepted him on the way. He's upstairs tied to my bed with ribbons. Must get back to him...

You send him on to Berrie madam! Now!

You'll get your turn on Friday (and make sure you return him promptly and in good condition!)
