Who needs cocoa when you've got a cheeky Sauv Blanc before bed?

I also take offence at Annenighties being a reference for flooziness personally insulting so expect a claim for defamation too.

As you can see, I'm so distressed I can't write a coherent sentence.

Umbrella - yes I see what you are saying in that Ann has said very recently she is a "70s feminist" and sees modern feminism as "a big whinge" and I guess that is probably related to Amanda telling Shane J to back off - I can imagine what Ann would make of my objection to "mansplaining" for example, given what she has experienced, just as Amanda was a bit IDGAF about her views, I'm married and happy, and saw Shane J as being whingey when Ann cannot do anything about his rights and was not picking on him for being gay.

My (very lovely) MIL and a couple of my friends in their 60s are quite similar in their views re: feminism (and they most definitely are not right or even centre-right politically). They are showing patience with me as much as I am showing patience with them because we can't share the same experiences unless someone is actually saying "you are of lower status because you a woman" etc. So they think I'm making a fuss because the things that trouble me seem like small fry given all the things they have been through, I think they don't understand that new issues have arisen with the internet/social media/ more female exposure in the workplace etc. I know I have been unintentionally pretty condescending to my MIL in the past (as she has been to me in the same vein) but because we get on so well it has been quite interesting and revealing for both of us.

And I know some women reading this are going to weep at this statement.... I think Ann has been quite helpful in clarifying some of my thoughts on this issue. Not even necessarily so much what she's said in the house but because her controversial presence has made me read up more about her and think about my experiences and relationships with women of her age and older.

Sorry for long serious post (!) - will leave it clear for CBB commentary from here on (though am going to have to do sneaky late night catch up on you tube again).

For anyone else watching on youtube who thinks they have to wait till the next day for the official "replay" - there is an unofficial "playlist" of the episodes that goes on line almost as soon as the tv broadcast finishes.

toldmywrath · 31/01/2018 20:37

Enrique Annightie (not an Annenightie) I love the distinction, plus the auntie Whiteadder reference earlier.Grin

picklemepopcorn · 31/01/2018 20:38

Ooh mirialis, that's helpful, thank you!

And your feminism post is interesting, too. It's a different kind of feminism, older women are familiar with.

I've just seen that Courtney has her own FB page, encouraging lots of followers to vote for her.

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 31/01/2018 20:38

I said Annighties wasn't mine Sad and I thought Waynesleepwear was something like this kind of thing

But Waynesleepers would be www.feitdirect.com/hand-sewn-mule-wool-tan

And remember Anne that floozieness is measured on the Widdie Scale, which commences with a ballerina length ankle or a three quarter sleeve Grin

No weeping from me, but cheering you on in this commentary.

Anne own the patent for Ann and Anneighties and now WincysWinceyettes

Ruby QC will start the sueing process

toldmywrath · 31/01/2018 20:44

Floozie is a superb word. The Widdie scaleGrin I'd come in at highly respectable on that. Halo

You are a brazen hussy of an idea-stealer En, I cannot let this lie! You will pay for your outrageous behaviour! Best you get legal representation quick-smart!

Plus, I have already spent some of the anticipated winnings.

Cannot keep up with the threads! But loving them and the titles.

I've always considered myself a heterosexual female but having been attracted to Courtney (not Shane) even before Cbb and now after last night I realised was attracted to the other Shane in a wig and dress 👗, i might need counselling for my confusion...

As you were.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 31/01/2018 20:50

Sole - can you see if Ruby could get hold of the rights for the Jessingown while she's at it? In way of reparation for hurt feelings?

OP posts:
EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 31/01/2018 20:51

I'm thinking about the Widdie Scale

Exemplary, as demonstrated by the leader
Highly Respectable, very good but could try harder. That's you Told Grin
Reasonably Respectable, with the addendum, see Ann later
Trying Ann's Patience, needs guidance
FLOOZIE, absolute temptress, abandon all hope Lady Whiteadder.

Sole I will have to plead my case to QC Ruby.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 31/01/2018 20:51

Betsey Shane L rocked that wig!

mirialis · 31/01/2018 20:52

Ooh mirialis, that's helpful, thank you!

Look for a link under the video that says "Follow this playlist" - just select any old episode until you see that link and then click on that link and you will see what's available - whoever is putting it up gets it on there pretty quickly after broadcast and bonus is cuts out all the adverts I know this lack of ads is controversial on the PWB thread-

nicenewdusters · 31/01/2018 20:53

Evening all. Great posts as usual. My brain is full from a day at college, so I'm afraid nightwear, food and nonsense is probably all I can offer. Not looking forward to a house without Amanda. Hope she's watching with biscuits and wine.

Redcrayons · 31/01/2018 20:54

Miralis - had a similar discussion with an older relative recently. When she first got pregnant, she had to give up work completely. She counts herself lucky she didn't have to give up when she got married and had a few extra years. So, to her, woman today are light years ahead of her at the same age.

SoleBizzz · 31/01/2018 20:54

I'm onto it Anne

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 31/01/2018 20:55

Betsey have a little lie down before 9pm Grin

Wooaaaah Wooaaaah, hands off the Jessingown that was entirely my creation Angry

nicenewdusters · 31/01/2018 20:55

Betsey I share the Courtney love, but I'm not feeling it for Shane L in the wig.

mirialis · 31/01/2018 21:05

told thanks for that, just saw your comment and it's nice to know there's someone not thinking I'm being a "handmaiden".

Right, going to see how I can sneak off to watch it live for a bit but if not will catch up on youtube.

Enjoy!

BringMeTea · 31/01/2018 21:06

I didn’t know Jess had had sex on telly. I hope she never feels like that’s a necessary move again. For any reason.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 31/01/2018 21:09

En That didn't stop you trying to steal Annighties and WayneSleepwear did it? The Jessingowns will be mine!!!!!
