    Yey we didn't scare away Birdie!

    Just need to wait on Tete now! Although she's most likely up a mountain getting use out of her new walking coat!

    You should join Flickr or something Dinah, then you'll just have to post the browser link instead!

    Very confussled, £10ish pounds is coming out of my bank account and I have no idea what for! Getting that worried knotted feeling, I think my dogs trust money is due to come out so I'm hoping it's that!

    Hello all! Been a funny sort of weekend and I haven't had a chance to get on here and post! The meet on Saturday was nice, and NIM was only a little scary! (Kidding! ;))

    Was convinced I'd scared you and Tete off, good to see you back Birdie. :j
    I know I made D out to be a lil bit of an ogre but shes lovely really :p

    Pictures! Left-Right- Dinah, Birdie, NIM, Tete. Dinah and Tete are very pretty girlies, and NIM's a cutie pie.

    Ah Shucks now your making me blush :o, that said you looked quite fetching with that bow and the flower on the jacket.

    BTW I cant get the pictures to show, am I missing something in the settings?

    I'm here!! It's werid me having to read more than 2 posts to catch up, I'm used to being the one gabbling on mindlessly!

    Imagine what it was like for me on the old thread when I could only log on every couple of days.

    Sounds like you're getting on well with the paintings Dinah! The one you're working on sounds lovely, I'd love to see it when you've finished. I'll bribe you with cuppy cakes, I have no shame!

    You'd have a better shot of getting them off of me Cinny and it'll cost you less cuppy cakes, I love her style of painting, just discovered that the one painting I thought her parents had bought (i.e. was done by a professional) she did herself, so very proud of her today.

    Have a nice night girls (and boys!) off to nag OH for half an hour before 90210.

    How is that entertainment, its trashier than the original 90210 and that was pretty fricken trashy. "Oooh were all spoiled rich kids in the hills, were so awesome, watch us to see how crummy your life is."

    That rant kinda got away from me but its pretty accurate.

    ETA: Takes me so bloody long to post! I can't see the piccys though (still waiting on my camel one by the way *ahem*dinah*ahem*) Sounds like you had a great time though!

    Camels are on the computer, we just need to figure out how to put them up on the forum.

    Tete is so tall and slim

    Oh yuk, I don't feel it after my SECOND trip to Betty's in 72 hours!! OH got all "But I want to go to Betty's too" and seeing as it wasn't walking weather today we went back down, had the pikelets this time, they were lovely! (I can't see the pics either, would love a copy by email though!)

    Was great to meet you all on Sat, you're not scary at all, you're funny though, like an old married couple in some ways - in an amusing way though not a bad one!

    Dinah your new pic of the lady sounds lovely, I loved Birdie's dress (and bow, and flower) too!

    I have spent most of the weekend watching bad horror (The Blob and Night of the Living Dead) and bad football (Sunderland), and making a fab Victoria Sponge this aft which I'm quite proud of! OH got himself a new phone today so I've got his old one and can get rid of my brick, will have a look on the mobile recycling sites.

    I'm afraid I lost track of who's been doing what over the past few pages; on the old thread I had a better idea of who everyone was and could remember what had been going on with them but it's taking me a while to get used to the new names! Hope everyone's well though and managed to get to and from work ok today, and those who are back to work tomorrow, hope you're coping with it better than me!!

    It's because it's so trashy that it's entertainment. Remember, you're talking to the girl who went to see the Hannah Montana movie on saturday, and is giddy to see Kevin Jonas in 3D. Your rant is beyond me and my trashy tv mind NIM! But yes, it is trashier than the original!

    I'd try to explain how to put the pictures up but I'm rubbish with words and it might make you eyes turn inwards with confusion.

    Two trips in 72 hours Tete?! I'm jealous! The bad horror movies sound lovely (can I call them lovely?) though. NIMs multiple quote messages must take him ages to do, I had to take breaks on his first one. My eyes kept on crossing over!

    Now, off to watch bad american teens act! Have a nice night everyone.

    Argh! I'm going mad, this is the third time I've tried to post now! Right, first photo thingy has fallen out with me so have joined flickr- links: http://www.flickr.com/photos/38138694@N08/3502249408/

    Really hope this works!

    Can't remember what else I wrote... something about Dinah and NIM being too cuddly and canoodly outside Betty's for me to see at first! ;) Ahhhhh....

    Was great to meet you all on Sat, you're not scary at all, you're funny though, like an old married couple in some ways - in an amusing way though not a bad one!

    erm...thanks I think :p
    Now I have to wonder what we'll be like in 30 years :)

    I see you're keeping up your enormous once a day posts NIM, was gonna have a go at the multiple quote thing but too tired and full of sponge cake tonight!

    Wish I was full of spongecake, I just figured out why you 2 havent posted since before the meet, you couldnt decide if we were sane enough to hang out with anymore. ;)

    Not that long if I'm honest about it. You guys do most of the typing for me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I think act is a bit (by which I mean a LOT) of a stretch of the word by any standard.
