Mission Crepe: no surrender

[Collymollypuff]

Here ya go...

Oh MI. I know that horrible toe curling feeling of doing something totally wrong / out of order / embarassing all too well. But really, you are being very hard on yourself you know. Everyone messes things up now and again and it's not a crime to make a mistake. If you'd set out to do something then that might be unforgivable but you didn't, it was an accident. People are likely to be much more forgiving / uninterested / un-noticing than it feels possible to imagine. Please don't beat yourself up too much and let it knock your confidence.

BTM - I'm very good at kicking where snoring spouses are concerned. A knee in the nuts will sort him out.

MI - sorry to hear you are still feeling rough.

NU - definitely a critter of some sort. A rat once climbed onto our kitchen table and dragged a banana across the living room floor.

I'm having a duvet day today, which is very welcome. I was invited to two parties last night - a 50th for one of DH's good friends, and an "end of treatment" party for the 4yo daughter of one of my loveliest colleagues (this is the girl we've been doing all the fundraising for). I had already accepted the first when the second invitation came in, so I did an hour's round trip early in the evening for a fleeting appearance at that, then raced to the 50th party, arriving just in time for the cake. And a large drink.

CV, a knee in the nuts might end up with me in hospital
The parties sound good.

I have also had a duvet day - watched Happy Feet with DD after defrosting the freezer (big job) and making a shepherds pie and apple crumble.

MY BFF was sooooo mad with her DH for night disturbances of the respiratory kind, that she recorded him on her smartphone and played it back to him the next morning. I'd have put it as a vid on fb.. Yes, a smart see in the groin or LTB...

MI Wot Giddy said...I suspect you won't feel quite so shite about it once your virus gets better. It'll be wrapping fish in a few days, you'll see.

We finally got out the door en famille...expecting to have a bracing walk before a very late lunch/early supper and got blown to kingdom come by the hurricane that seems to be hitting Norf London at the moment. So we repaired quickly to a local eatery, where DS in a rare fit of Glasnost, regaled us with side splitting, hilarious tales of the reprehensible behaviour of the band (including what they get up do during shows...) and how he is clearly being "educated" and initiated into some serious, blokeish locker room antics...Well,he's having a whale of a time...and the funniest thing to me is that he thinks I'll be shocked. Clearly I am a prude of the first order...

He also seems to be contributing to see sort of rude, naughty blog written weekly by the two drummers, but is a bit coy about letting me follow it. But I have my ways.... Off to search for it. I have their names.... Ha har

Rudy was I supposed to PM you about the SS...?

smart see? ...knee, I meant

Rudy - would it be possible for people to put their MN name next to their real names as there are the usual suspects on the list and then one or two whom I have no idea who they are. I know some have done this anyway.

MI - dreadful to feel bad like that - agree with the general consensus to have a day in bed tomorrow.

Had a lovely evening wine tasting with friends today and spent today headless chickening as DH went off on a bike ride with his friend and then forgot his key. I was in town, and he was supposed to pick up DD2. In the end DD2 got home by herself on the train.

We are in lockdown once again with COP21. Even in our banlieu there seem to be armed police on roundabouts!

MI I am sure it will all be fine - really.

Cremo - lets us know re job.

Nope everyone is over the hangovers ;)

Hatty, the tv pictures from Paris look pretty awful and I really don't think there was any need to traipse all over the memorials to the recent attacks.

Did you try to keep a straight face when DS was telling you all these things, Rose?

Re the bird feeder, we only have red squirrels and they are much smaller (and prettier) than the greys, so I really don't think they could manage. We saw a suicidal one this morning, we had just got into the car when one came over the fence from next door, ran under the car, and then bolted into our back garden - fortunately DH saw it in time.

The only people I recognised for the SS were MI and Hatty as I am not on FB, so I know where Hatty is coming from.

I am staying with my former house mate from 1984. What haven't seen each other since 2001, and it's like we saw each other last week.

Have tried to change my name for SS but not sure if it's worked!

MrsS that's fab - love seeing old friends!

I have made a very specific request so if you get me it's obvious :)

Loving the Tena Lady pic to illustrate the crepey SS. Very good, Rudy.

I've added a nickname and photo of me I bed!

I didn't put my mn name in when I registered.. you can edit to "add nickname" from the home page on there...

It's all v high tech this year Rudy!

Here you must know me by my gratuitous nanny goat shot and shameless begging for soap

I don't understand. But then again I am suffering a three day hangover and consequent erosion of IQ.

I'm going to bed now so hopefully should understand in the morning.

I too have a snoring DP. And when he does it during the many wakeful sweaty periods in the night when I'm trying to get back to sleep, I do get homicidal.

Oh Rudy, I hope it's nothing.

Sleep well dear Crepeys. Don't let the snoring, snuffling heavy breathing h's keep you wake.
( I often just move on to the sofa, dragging the lovely warm duvet with me! )

Oh dear Rudy. Hope it's nothing too awful.

I have edited my name again - hope it's OK now!

The heavy breathing didn't wake me last night. Well, not properly!
