"evening all"

I've been in hospital with DS for short of 24hrs.
It had to happen eventually.

Rugby training+66kg+16yr old nutter=dislocated ankle fractured in 3 places/no rugby for the next season/total disaster.

DH away+SIL visiting+ injured teenager=slightly stressed

DH back +surprise present/totally off piste=beyond stress just give up,curl into small ball,have bubble bath,cry.

Have just had the best EVER glass of red wine.may finish bottle

I adore our local hospital and the lovely people who work there. I want to marry a paramedic, they are total heroes and fulfilled a lifelong ambition of riding in an ambulance with siren and blue light.

A and E is nothing like Greys Anatomy Sad

You WILL NEVER GUESS WHAT MY SURPRISE PRESENT IS Sad Sad

Oh your poor DS Dry - hugs for you.

LinusDKD · 24/07/2015 20:28

Oh no dry poor DS and poor you!

I hope DS gets better soon!

What did your DH buy you now Hmm

QueenCardigan · 24/07/2015 20:44

Night all. Alarm set for 6 hours time!!!
dry hope you ok. Don't keep us in suspense though....

Stokey · 24/07/2015 20:50

Gosh hope your poor DS is OK Dry.

We've arrived and have wi-fi, hoorah. 9.30 at night and it's still 33 outside, so if you're still reading QueenC or MVB, I definitely didn't need my emergency trousers, socks & think it may even be too hot for denim shorts. And don't know if evening dresses will get worn either.

Haven't read full thread, will catch up manyana

Topazandpearl · 24/07/2015 21:40

Oh Dry Wine Wine Flowers Brew Cake Wine. I hope DS and you are ok. Yy what gift??

MyVegasBaby · 24/07/2015 22:44

Sorry to hear about your DS Dry hope he makes a speedy recovery.
Safe travels and a great holiday Queen.
Glad you've arrived safely Stokey and wifi a bonus. I haven't packed any socks or trousers (no room!) but am expecting similar temperatures.
Packing pretty much done and it all fits, went ahead with my spray tan earlier so will see how that looks in the morning. So far so good and no biscuit smell which is a bonus!

AmberNectarine · 25/07/2015 08:46

Yikes, poor DS dry, hope he gets some macho points from his mates for this!

Wedding to go to today - still not sure what to wear, am ignoring the issue by going to spin class!

Ujjayi · 25/07/2015 09:05

Dry - your poor DS. Sounds excruciating. Am intrigued by the surprise gift.

QueenC safe journey & fab hols Smile

Stokey 33 degrees at night sounds glorious!

MVB what brand of spray tan did you go for? Be interested to hear how it fades/blends with natural tan. I may apply a few layers of St Tropez gradual tanner before wednesday just to take the edge off the brilliant white Grin

Amber enjoy the wedding!

Wore my new shoes last night - the ones inspired by the Marant Leos. They are so comfy. I'm finding I wear flats for evening more through the summer.

More sewing today...am finally feeling excited for my hols!

AmberNectarine · 25/07/2015 10:01

Well that was brutal, but 900 calories in the bank which I fully intend to squander on champagne!

I find I prefer flats in the summer too Ujj, heels all the way today which I will regret at about 6pm, no doubt. If I was 5ft9 or over I don't think I'd ever wear heels.

libertychick · 25/07/2015 10:53

Ujjayi you are really making me feel I need to learn to sew.

libertychick · 25/07/2015 10:54

Have a great time at the wedding amber.

MarshaBrady · 25/07/2015 12:01

Dh and I are having the most indulgent day. Poolside in the sunshine. Ignoring the odd scatty cloud. Dh nearly bailed on me as he said was too cold. Never. Have faith!

Dry oh no, you poor things, how is your ds today?

Topazandpearl · 25/07/2015 13:09

Flamingo jumper for One

MyVegasBaby · 25/07/2015 13:59

Ujj it's a fake bake one, looks good this morning, only time will tell what happens when I'm away, hoping my tan will kick in as it fades.

OneLittleLady · 25/07/2015 14:15

I love love love that topaz good find

second flamingo bag is a hit, love it and the pineapple cardigan is also a winner. i've not bought much this season but i do love what i have bought. really looking forward to more wintery colours coming back in store though as all these pastels and delicate coral colours do nothing for me at all

OneLittleLady · 25/07/2015 14:37

oh, I hope Ds is okay dry you must have been and still be so worried. best wishes for his recovery Thanks

Drywhiteplease · 25/07/2015 17:09

All ok here . Thanks for the thoughts. DS home this morning. Now just a question of time.

Out tonight had a little nap just now doing nails, wondering what to wear.

Drywhiteplease · 25/07/2015 17:19

Amber really looking forward tom eating about which outfit you choose for the wedding

MyVegasBaby · 25/07/2015 22:49

All sorted and ready to go tomorrow. My leopard Gigis bought in the Next sale arrived today so have snuck those in too! Gigis
Going to buy some new perfume at the airport, I like quite heady/musky and not floral perfumes. Any suggestions??

MyVegasBaby · 25/07/2015 22:59

Bought this while I was picking up the Gigis blue necklace and a cute straw trilby which I can't find online.
