yay for slippers, found glasses and soup.
not good re phones!

i survived - the disco - the 30 x 11 year olds was a breeze - what a great party, though I say so myself.
they had a boys v girls dance off. the boys had to nominate their best dancer to start the 'Harlem shake'. it was all good. I think.

ApricotCrush · 04/02/2015 08:38

Morning all!

Glad you found your glasses Comtess. I once lost some glasses in Machynlleth in Wales. We went back the next day and traced our route and as in your story some kind person had placed them on a window sill.

OMG, that Radio Times review of Ep 5. It's not Colette, it's Isabelle from the Apprentice Lover with a different name!

Also love the Swedish slant in Ep 7. Who is channelling whom?

Have a good day all and hope Mavis finds her phone. Smile

MadamedeChevreuse · 04/02/2015 08:49

Yay chaise! To say 30 11-yr-olds was a breeze is testament to your disco organisation skills Im sure. Loving the sound of the dance off!

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 09:03

Good morning, how did I miss the link to ep 7 synopsis last night? With luck, all 4 of them will be part of the escort, so we may see them all together

chaise, glad all went well at the disco. You are clearly a party planner & host of some skill to be able to call it 'a breeze'.

Does anyone ever get a feeling like their intercostals are snagged up in their ribs and breathing in is agony, but the only way to sort it out is by taking a really deep breath in?

ApricotCrush · 04/02/2015 11:51

That's interesting Elk. I sometimes get the feeling that one of my floating ribs is stuck on another. It's really painful and I have to jiggle about to free it. Maybe that's the same thing. Hmm

MadamedeChevreuse · 04/02/2015 12:27

Yes! I did something weird in bed last night and got a massive ow. Seems ok now. We are all so in tune...

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 04/02/2015 12:46

Just nipping in with this.

HELLFIRE, have we still really got another 10 days to go????? Angry

I got a reply from the BBC Complaints dept, BTW. Blahblahblahbollocks.

I am off for an Indian Head Massage this afternoon. Some lovely fantasy me time.

MadamedeChevreuse · 04/02/2015 12:52

Oh well done for giving it a go sparks. Those complaints replies are written by a computer program Im sure.

Lovely santi pic just a touch more beard needed.

Please wenches: the pace in here this week really needs to pick up, or I will be forced to read THE NEWS at lunchtime.

I used to be such a news fiend. But since having ds - just cba. Plus it is so horrifically apocalyptical these days. What happened to the good old days, when the most disturbing thing you could hear about was an eeeeew sex scandal involving a Tory MP?

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 04/02/2015 13:20

Just picking up the pace

Episode 7 spoiler. Love it.

Oh I seemed to have missed 6.
I didn't like seeing 7/10 - made me feel like we were nearer the end than the beginning!!

The disco, involved very little planning by me- decorated, food, dj booked - by the guy who owns it - no charge ( as a gesture to my Dh, who is his best friend) . I got helium balloons and crips - which I needn't have bothered, coz there was tonnes already, and a couple of packets of mini maltesers etc, for small gift at the end/ . That really was it!

Bring on next Friday. I getting withdrawal symptoms. My musketeer friend invited me over this Friday/ we'll have to watch a series 1 episode.....

chaiselounger · 04/02/2015 14:54

I had 11 (actually most of them are still 10) year old girls in the toilet applying black liquid eyeliner , with more precision than me. Was an eye-opener, I tell you!!

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 04/02/2015 14:58

Hmmm, what are our thoughts on reflexology then?

I had half an hour of that today (Indian Head Massage therapist away so got to go back on Friday - THANKS for letting me know, salon). Haven't had reflexology before, loved loved loved having my feet fiddled with But I did feel a bit like I was at a cheap medium's as she "def could feel something wrong with my leg" PLUS issues with my eyes, ears, shoulders, neck, bladder & thyroid!!!! FFS. Shoot me now....

So do we believe or is it all a load of hokum?

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 15:23

Good afternoon, well it is now having seen those Santi pics Wink

Reflexology? Big pile of hokum for me, but very relaxing. Best Mum & Baby group I ever went to had a reflexology nun - for a £5 donation to a charity she supported, you had a 20 minute reflexology session. She was brilliant about the chatting too, could tell if you wanted to chat or not. Her chat was a cut above as well - she was well travelled & had some great stories. Not sure if she knew how to load a musket or not, but I wouldn't have bet against it Grin

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 15:26

Is this the sort of thing you wanted madame?

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 15:30

Not sure about this one, I think the way it's been done makes his eyes look mad Grin. Impressive chest wiggage (as comtess would say)

I'll leave it here for Team Aramis to study.....

Lyndie · 04/02/2015 15:35

Afternoon all.

I shall not step too deeply into the reflexology question other than to say if you found it relaxing then it's probably good for you!

Chaise well done on the party, it sounds ace. Grin Hope DS recognised your awesomeness! And the holiday sounds lovely too.

Floppers was the observation ok?

Mavis I made the Anzac biscuits today. Yum! I might have had a few already. Smile

Fucking rugby starting soon Angry not least for disrupting TM scheduling just for being awful. I haven't even rewatched the last episode yet Shock

I've had a nice day home alone without DC or DH. Trying to recover some energy and mojo!!!

Layers.

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 04/02/2015 15:42

Not sure about those eyes. Let's try this instead

Baddz · 04/02/2015 15:45

I find reflexology very relaxing (as I do any other massage) but using it to tell me I have a clogged kidney?
No.
Well, today has been rubbish. I hate Wednesdays.
Housework (natch)
Ferrying mum around (as usual)
Went to see post op friend
And suddenly it was 2pm!
Ds2 not going to gymnastics as he has a cough (and I can't be bothered)
Ds1 will not be Impressed about dinner as it's jacket potatoes
Dh will no doubt piss off into the shed of doom at some point, leaving me with baths and homework.
Sigh.

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 16:07

That gif looks more & more dirty the more I look at it (which is quite a lot admittedly).

Shall we swap DCs badders? If I send DD over to you for dinner, she'll tell you you're the best mum ever for doing baked potatoes & your DS can come here & have roast chicken?

Baddz · 04/02/2015 16:08

Done ;)

FolknNorah · 04/02/2015 16:35

Howdy there fuckersz! Hope you're all ok? There's a definite shortage of Porthos ATM, not fair, not fair at all, I'm so very generous with the others etc etc so.....
baddersz I'll come to yours and eat your spuds.
Any chance of a head rub?
I believe it can help by being nice and relaxing, that sort of stuff. Just don't try and touch my feet or you will end up all nice and relaxed. By that I mean unconscious and not because they smell, they don't.

I might look at becoming as masseur. I could do home visits and relax my wenchies.
Or, I could just do the home visits and relax ma wenches. Wink
??

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 04/02/2015 16:44

Speaking of home visits to relax his ^ wenches - it's Wednesday Grin

It's blatant, isn't it Fancy? Even where they've got him positioned sitting on the floor while she's laid out on the chaise.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooofffff

LiviaDruscillaAugusta · 04/02/2015 17:07

Hello wenches! How is everyone doing today?

Norah You can come and massage me anytime Wink

FancyFancy · 04/02/2015 17:28

FFS draft 4 of the same fucking document reviewed, some changes still not put through. How fucking hard (nlt) is it? Angry. Have given up & just put them through myself, if the formatting goes all tits up because of Apple/Microsoft issues, that is now their problem & could've been avoided had they just put them through correctly first time Angry

If draft 5 needs correcting I may just explode with rage
