Feeling invisible .....wave at a mate!

Reprint · 22/10/2013 20:31

Following on from Trish's good idea (and by request) this thread is the place to play 'bag a buddy' 'wave at a mate' or 'grab someone else's grip for a minute'

The original idea from the invisble thread was that it would be a brilliant idea if people had a friend they could pair up with ....just so someone is going to wave at you when you feel down.
It needed a thread.
This is it .....................

Thanks for Fright that's a lot to deal with at once. Don't forget yourself.

Hump Blush sorry. I was distracted and had too many windows open, not sure I knew what I was doing no change there then Grin

Thanks for looking at my thread Harold it was a bit specific I know. & Grin I didn't know your story, so thanks for explaining. I would rummage for a friend.

I usually use Active and previously to this wave related outing I'm watching but yesterday I used I'm on who would've thunk eh. I did put a link to this thread on the first thread before it ended. I don't mind it people think of us as a quiche (although I can never keep up with quiches) but I hope we're still approachable to other invisibles...maybe a small quiche. A tartlet or something.

Are the Name Changes for AF still going on? Am happy to join in with that (unless it's all been sorted then I'll look a bit silly) AF banned Angry just AngryAngry HQ

IamInvisisble Shock at your FIL how strange. Must be harder to deal with when your DH is away. Glad you feel better about it now. Your boys sound lovely.

Sorry for the epic catch up. Bloody RealLife Grin

Still no clue if I have specific wavemates, so a floozie wave to all.

PerpendicularVincentPrice · 24/10/2013 08:35

UncomfortablyDumb (nice NN Smile), there are still lots of name changes going on, go for it! I can't read the thread MNHQ posted on but apparently AF has been banned for a week?

It seems to be getting a bit vicious on some threads which is a shame really, as AF isn't like that herself, just, erm, forthright. Hopefully she'll be back soon.

Are you ok today invisisible?

BOOsterseatforAnyFucker · 24/10/2013 08:41

Aye love Brew

Whats new this morning?

PerpendicularVincentPrice · 24/10/2013 08:51

Nowt, the baby hasn't slept so business as usual Wink

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 24/10/2013 08:53

Gosh this thread moves fast! You venture out into the real world for a bit and miss like 4 pages! Right am going to stick DS1 in front of Cbeebies, DS2 in the jumperoo, make a brew and catch up...

BOOsterseatforAnyFucker · 24/10/2013 08:58

My baby is 9 now! I don't miss those night feeds and landing pacing one little bit.

UncomfortablyDumb Hi UncomfortablyDumb Grin or shall we call you Anyuncomfortablydumbfucker?

RatherBeOnThePiste · 24/10/2013 09:02

I feel sorry for those vulnerable women who will need her around, AF has helped so many in really difficult times, and she stands up to the goady fuckers and MRA trolls. Banning her doesn't address the problem imo.

Morning, waves

PerpendicularVincentPrice · 24/10/2013 09:12

I agree Piste, I don't always agree with AF but she comes across as someone with a good heart who posts for the right reasons. At least it's a short term ban so she'll be back soon.

BOO, at what point does it get easier?

Anyuncomfortablydumbfucker · 24/10/2013 09:13

Thanks Perpendicular and yes, good idea BOO Smile

Completely agree RatherBeOnThePiste the work she does here is immeasurable. HQ might as well put her on staff and protect her from the it seems inevitable banning caused by trolls that way

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 24/10/2013 09:14

What?! AF is banned?! When did this happen?! Why? vows never to leave the house again in case I miss more important news

HaroldAnyLloydFUCKER · 24/10/2013 09:20

Morning all invisibles

I think possibly back to chat? I do tend to let my posting run away with me at times and I do like it disappearing after 90 days.

An everybody welcome quiche? I think not everyone looks at relationships so we might be more noticeable to anyone invisible who could use a wave.

Its doesn't get easier Perpendicular, its just different!

Long gone are the days of baby weaning, night feeds and phonics! This weeks challenges have been homework, chores, eating me out of house and home, going up another shoe size, standing on his basdtardwanking lego and to my complete horror two gorgeous young girls stood at the front door when i got home yesterday twirling hair and acting all coy asking if DS is playing out! I'm not ready for this!

Is it just a weeks ban! Morning eceryone

HaroldAnyLloydFUCKER · 24/10/2013 09:23

BOO that's nice to know, I have a 2.( and 8 month old, it's pretty gruelling at the moment.

My 2.5 year old is the hardest work, bless him.

BOOsterseatforAnyFucker · 24/10/2013 09:26

Respect to those who had another go! I think I'm sticking with just the one for now.

It wont be long before they are playing nicely together on the floor sharing toys while you MN and look on adoringly Wink

HaroldAnyLloydFUCKER · 24/10/2013 09:30

Waves to 2tired Grin

HaroldAnyLloydFUCKER · 24/10/2013 09:30

BOO that's hopeful thinking. At the moment I'm hearing ITS MIIIIIIINE about 1000 times a day.

2tiredtoScare · 24/10/2013 09:34

Morning Harold Smile I have a 6 yr old, 4 year old and a 10 month old, Chaos

EauPeanUpTheGatesOfHell · 24/10/2013 10:03

Morning all,

Maybe chat would be the best place to set up home, we could have ongoing freds like the drunk thread etc.

I missed the AnyFucker hooha thread, although did post on one of the support threads. I luffes AF, I think of her as bit like Doc Martins psychiatrist Aunt Halloween Blush

Thanks for all the congratulations on the move, really excited, we are moving from an ex LA semi, mahoosively overlooked, to a detached bungalow by the coast.

BOO HAROLD and it does get better honest, although there is almost 17 years between mine, including the Dsd's our brood ranges from 26 to 3.

"do me a favour and go have a rummage in your vagina for me" HAROLD you are legend, definitely the bench mark for mates from now one

BOOsterseatforAnyFucker · 24/10/2013 10:16

Dsd's our brood ranges from 26 to 3.

Im 27! I cant imagine having a DSis or Dbro of 3!

Jealous of your coastal home too Eau, I hope you are very happy there.

HaroldAnyLloydFUCKER · 24/10/2013 10:41

Eau that sounds amazing, no wonder your so excited!

IamInvisisble · 24/10/2013 10:42

Morning moustachio and ilikeFISH and everyone else.

I am fine this morning, I've got a big pile of ironing that's staring at me though!

MrsCakesPremonition · 24/10/2013 10:51

Morning all - today is a lovely sunny day and I'm going to venture out into the garden to do some tidying up.
I'll be back for Brew and Cake later.
IamInvisible - hide the ironing, go on, you know you want to.
