my post made me chuckle. why is is good that DS1 only lost one glove (those were his words too BTW). he may as well have lost both for all the good one is.
sorry jammy, it was the zombies bit that made me wonder.

Ohforfoxsake · 01/11/2008 20:29

Thanks guys. They're OK. I have learnt not to pour bicarb of soda on neat vomit. It doesn't work. But it was 4am and I had already stripped one bed

Jammy, what's Dead Set like? That's the Big Bro one isn't it? Quite fancied seeing it, but am far too big a woss.

JammyOLantern · 01/11/2008 20:35

Yeah, it's the Big Brother zombie thing. Quite good, but pretty intense full on gore. Mainly watching it because DH wanted to, but has been interesting.

JammyOLantern · 01/11/2008 20:45

Ria, new Top Gear tomorrow!

Ohforfoxsake · 01/11/2008 20:51

Don't do gore.

Not on the telly anyway. Plenty here at the mo!

JammyOLantern · 01/11/2008 20:56

OK, I am off to catch a look at the paper. Night all.

Bumperlicious · 01/11/2008 21:09

Hello all

Ekka congratulations, hope you are doing ok. We are going to need more details than that!

Any news from JBM?

DD is still up . We went to the all you can eat chinese buffet (WW is off for today and our one treat from my bonus money) and then decided to go into Tesco. We've not long been back and DD is having her milk. Are we really bad for keeping her up so late?

Done over 2000 of my book

Foxy, sorry to hear you have had a plague in your house. How exhausting for you. Is your phone sorted now, I got your text earlier but assumed I couldn't text back.

Oh and Tescos had fake uggs 2 for £15 so I treated myself to a couple of pairs , they are comfy though.

of your treat and your 200 words bumper. we had takeaway burger/kebab last night for our treat. I don't think you're bad being out this late - you are a bohemian writer, as am I in spirit, it's just the "doing" I have trouble with.

bollocks to late night fireworks. If they wake DS2 I will be

RiallyEeRiaee · 01/11/2008 21:25

thats a bargain bumper (I think). they are not my thing I'm afraid. I'm thinking long fat legs... not a good look for me.

DS1 is now stressing because he watched a programme on WW1 and there were "disturbing images". He is under strict instructions not to watch the programme on Stalin, you would think he would connect that instruction to other war documentaries wouldn't you. (Iwas putting DS2 to bed, I expected him to put a DVD on)

Ohforfoxsake · 01/11/2008 21:36

at least you have long fat legs Ria [wnvy]. I have short fat legs.

No, not bad Bumper. Its good to let them stay up sometimes. Means you are enjoying them Keeping them up when they are horrid is bad parenting (and utter madness!)

I sent you that text via the website. Glad it worked. I spent all day trying to get my bloody phone sorted. Had to install new software it was a right palaver. Thankfully I had the incentive of Daisy having a baby or I wouldn't have bothered.

Lost all my bloody phone pics though.

Ohforfoxsake · 01/11/2008 21:37

JBM hope you are OK.

Bumperlicious · 01/11/2008 21:39

Poor DS ria, silly boy.

I have also discovered, while buying DD her second pair of shoes (some pink kicker boots, there's not much other than pink!) that Jones the Bootmaker do children's knee high boots up to a size 6 or 7 - they are about half the price of adult boots plus another £10 off this weekend! Nearly bought a pair but couldn't afford them, even if they were £35, but worth remembering for the future!

Aw, sorry about the photos foxy, that sucks. Right, off for more writing. Hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend.

RiallyEeRiaee · 01/11/2008 21:40

foxy. Not sure about modern technology when it's not reliable.

Long fat legs just means there's more of them.

I was going to do some crafting tongiht, but I'd rather eat crisps. Hope DH finishes in time to buy more wine. I am dreading what the works he's done will do to his benefit claim for this week. The hours he's done they could give him a proper contract (sorry, I go over this convo so many times with him, DM, in my head). I am also dreading the Arguments this funeral are going to cause. FIL thinks he some kind of bald Tony Soprano.

RiallyEeRiaee · 01/11/2008 21:42

my grammer has gone to pot. Perhaps I should just go to sleep.

Ohforfoxsake · 01/11/2008 21:59

I think I'm going to bed. I have had my MN fix after my week away. Now I am going to bed with my pile of magazines which came while I was away. Marie Claire had 3 bars of chocolate with it DS1 puked over my new Good Housekeeping Mag. Luckily it wasn't the Christmas one, or I'd have gone mad

Night

Interesting tip re the boots Bumper. I am tempted by these for DD, but would cost me half as much again in postage. But still cheaper than prices here, I have been looking for boots for DD and everything is £50-£60. I can't bring myself to pay that, but I feel guilty she has been the last 2 months in 10 euro trainers....

RiallyEeRiaee · 01/11/2008 23:03

those are nice boots sputnik.
just watching Gordon - whre had Johnny Vegas gone???
Nite again

Bumperlicious · 01/11/2008 23:40

Gorgeous sputnik! Would it be cheaper for one of us to buy them and send them out to you?

Right, off to bed, done 3044 words, a great start. I need 1667 words a day to reach my target of 50,000.

Night all, hope there's no more puking Foxy

T'was me Bumper. I am not doing FB either. Does my head in.

FrazzledFairyFay · 02/11/2008 03:45

If anyone on here doesn't do facebook, pls let me know and I'll email you

TALLULAHBELLE · 02/11/2008 03:54

What you doing up Fairy?

FrazzledFairyFay · 02/11/2008 07:48

I could ask you the same question TB . i was up with DD from 1:30-4:00 unfortunately. She has a chest infection and couldn't sleepfor coughing so eventually i brought her downstairs for a bit. She watched some v for a bit so I had a sneaky peak on here.
