Swagger Inn: Thread 87. BBC Musketeers - roll on Friday. Close your eyes and avoid the spoilers... sodding programmers.

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

As you were wenches... The bar is stocked up, the chaise is re-covered and ready for action, and all we have to do it... er. Wait until Friday.
Arse.

There there baddz, will this help?

Hahahahahaha

God, I'd love a fucking freeze ray.
And henchmen.
I could really use some henchmen...for general henching.

elk that's great advice re the hot choc. I had never thought of that.
No opera cake but I've tidied the living room and sorted clothes to give to a friend's teen DDs. I have accepted I'll never fit into them again
How are you bearing up?

baddz Nathan Fillion is captain hammer and him singing 'a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do' is my absolute favourite bit

We're good here thanks, only woken up 3 or 4 times . MlleElk still under my feet poorly sick. I might just send her to school loaded with calpol and a cork up each nostril tomorrow, she's driving me mad! I am a horrible mother

I just clicked on a Tumblr site, read one line of dialogue captioned onto a pic, screamed & ran away Nothing that we didn't know was going to happen, but still

FFS. This is ridiculous.

Afternoon everyone.

It seems like we need a lock-in at the Tavern to keep ourselves spoiler-free.

and [matchsticks] to the sleep-deprived.

How is your mouth now badders? Paying for unpleasant dental treatment feels like kicking you when you're down doesn't it?

Evening wenches.

Fancy - I like your spin on my dream.

Hope your bits have stopped being numb Badderz.

My two sound similar to yours Mouse. DS1 was no problem when he slept with us. Go straight to sleep and no wiggling about. DS2 however would interpret coming into our bed as "time to have fun and jump on the bed" and then when finally going to sleep, would wiggle about all over.

I wanna go and look at Tumblr for other stuff

Where's chaise recently?

Well, my face hurts :(
Ds2s parent evening went well though :) he is a clever little sausage, bless him.
Think Dh and the dc are off into the shed soon so I might take myself off upstairs and watch Netflix.
Must get some actual housework done tomorrow!

Aw, are you well stocked up with painkillers (or ) badders?

Good news about your DS doing well, it's always a relief when parents' evening goes well!

Mine didn't want to co-sleep much, but as a toddler DD used to regularly wake at 4/5 am, feed & only go back to sleep lying face down on me. Not too bad, except one night post-op when she still had drains attached. Awkward

I have had some paracetamol fancy.
Just feel....bluergh.
I am very windy today
Am off up to my bed to watch Netflix.

Hi Wenches.

Badders sorry about the teeth, yay for DS2.

Mouse DS2 is like that, still at almost four years old. DS1 always lay still with no wriggling.

MyName if you go onto the actual Poldark thread, there is a link to that dancing thing that isn't fuzzy. I recommend sitting down before you watch it

Still got the cold here, my sinuses have flared up so my whole face is really sore. I am not a happy camper.

Night bads, feel better soon!

Nice to see Nora about again.

letus that reminds me, hope your parents evening was ok the other day?

Hope everywench else is well.

I have totally avoided all news of any kind and have NO IDEA what ep 9 is going to bring.

Enjoy whatever you decide to watch Badderz and a big well done to DS2!

It went better than I thought Madame. We had a chat about his homework and have got a strategy in place which hopefully no longer involves him being aggressive towards me and throwing stuff. His literacy isn't brilliant but he keeps trying at school but his maths is okay. He's still not very confident but is more confident than he's ever been so that's progress, and he's a lovely boy to have in the class. We'll get there.

That sounds pretty good letus, well done!

That sounds positive Letus
Ds2 goes into year 2 for maths obv doesn't get his maths skills from me
She said he was a lovely boy
She said he is very creative - he loves drawing and painting.

I read that as Alibabs being wheeled to a convent. Bahaahahahahahaha!

As long as it's one full of Athos & Aramis, eh?

Oh goodness, now I'm back to Aramis hiding out in a convent, having to be all well behaved and stuff but there being lots of barely suppressed lustful longing

And thanks for the well dones

Evening all

No surprise that you all have good parents eve reports. Just look at the parents. . Well done to all.

This week is dragging like fuck. Is it still only fucking TUESDAY? FFS.

I've been to yoga. Knackered but relaxed and have decided to have a shower and go straight to bed. Party on. not.

Did someone say Aramis in a convent?

Yes please.

I hope the paracetamol is working for you badders & you're feeling less ....bleurgh. DD & I seem to be enjoying similar symptoms today, so you have my sympathies.

letus, that sounded positive re your DS, especially the bit about his confidence improving

Holy Hola wenches.

I'm another one that had parents evening tonight, and also good reports. Seems like DS is only being a little shit when at home. Which I knew (only thing he can control, safe target for anger, just a phase etc) but nice to have confirmation. Am having a big to celebrate even though it's a school night. letUs and Baddz it would be quite rude of you not to join me .

I also deserve it because for once I have not caved and looked at spoilers. Which is unusual for me. Wish Friday would just hurry the fuck up though before I crack and head to twitter/ track it down online. Issy I am that you know all.

Aww thanks wenches.

That man is just delicious. You can post that video as often as you like LetUs

Ahem LetUs.

I'm not enjoying this going cold-turkey thing One. Little Bit.

Just sayin'

Me neither Sparkle.

Not sure if posting gif as a picture will work so I'll link it too. He's not looking that happy about it either

Ohhhhh that is just beautiful. TY.

This has to be the slowest week in the history of slowness.
