Couple swapping

[user1484939839]

Hello

New name, you know....

I am on here a lot but not this topic.

Anyway....

Advice please....

Happily married - typical 2 kids mid 30s etc etc

Friends have suggested quite openly that we swap. We are due to stay at thiers tomorrow night, they live about 100 miles away.

We have a relaxed, chatty, friendly relationship with them. Been on holiday as couples. Not that long standing. No deep and meaningful discussions.

The haven't swapped before and neither have we. My husband and I had vaguely thought about it before kids with another couple but it never happened. This couple just sort of suggested we all try the last time we met up which was for dinner rather than staying over. Holiday means that boobs, bums, wobbly bits, and so on have already been exposed.

I have to admit, I fancy the idea, hubby too, and I texted just now to say ummmmm ok.

Thoughts?

Bad idea?

slug shaming

I was slug shaming, not slut shaming.

Now that is a post from someone who understands Mumsnet

Fucking hell polly boke.

To be fair user courgettes don't really have much of a use. Green, flavourless bastards.

I swear I only pressed send once!

Haha coughing

Perhaps the slugs have eaten all the courgettes.

*sparklingbrook hahaha if you think that's lowering it you've not got much imagination.

All the MN regulars are right now desperately frigging their saggy old fannies off with courgettes to this thread That's why there is a shortage, savais?

HTH*

Mines not saggy?! How very dare you!

I'm now taking my DH upstairs for a right good fucking. I'll be back though...want to watch Dukes of Hazard on DVD.

it's all the excitement, my poor phone couldn't handle it!

Practice, Tweasels.

CKS xxx

Well that escalated.

For the record I'm planning on using my very non saggy vag with DPs very large penis tonight. And no vegetables needed.

I had to go back and re read users post. All I read was that she was lucky because she had courgettes and I was thinking about how she was lucky because I haven't been able to get any for weeks! I had to have bolognese with kale!
To stop the soggyness, use a peeler and peel thin strips but don't do the seedy bit. Then sauté with butter.

I think spaghetti squash is different to butternut squash. I think it goes into the spaghetti shape without the spiralizer.
Mid 30s isn't middle aged.

Sautéing! That's the answer

DAMMIT GOT SUCKED IN BY THE MUNDANITY

Deleted wtf 😂😂

Thanks to everyone for reporting - we've zapped a few choice posts and hopefully we can all get back to Dukes of Hazard soon!

I hope OP is bladdered, even the thought of the awkwardness of swapping with a couple who are friends is making me want to reach out for Gin!

And courgette quiche?

I hope OP updates us, I'm dying to hear how it goes and what level of cringing awkwardness was reached

I'd swap all the courgettes in the land for another Sharon post.

Yes there is a spinach situation too Dahlietta, floods in Spain apparently.

Thanks, Sparklingbrook, glad to know I'm not going mad, but very sad about the spinach. We had to substitute mangetout. Can you imagine?

Stepped away from MN just for a minute and it all seems to have escalated a bit - there's one thing I REALLY need to know..... all the deleted posts weren't giving secret tips on where courgettes can still be found, were they?!

Yes Fenella, in a manner of speaking.

I doubt you'd want them though.

No. Sadly fenella there's no insider courgette trading tips on MN.

Has anyone tried swapping courgette for aubergine?

I do like aubergine a lot, but it's a trickier customer than courgette, isn't it?

Haha well

That's the truth.

Just a bit of tripe purple prose, fenella
