    Hopefully they will all be too drunk and passed out to notice!!That said a couple stayed in the room next door last year and they were at it on our sofa bed for ages. And she so wasn't quiet! LOL. The talk the next day was interesting after they went and it transpired they do it at everyones house they stay at LOLOL.

    Haha Rebekah, we had the same problem a couple of months ago. DH had to clamp his hand over my mouth to keep me quiet! LOL
    What matters most is how well you walk through the fire
  • We know a couple like that - it got so bad on one camping trip that I nearly went over to the tent to offer to help.

    Honestly. I still can't look her in the face.

    HAHHAHAHHAHAHAAA!!!Soooo funny!Well I am actually looking forward to this month now ...! Last month it was really hard work this is kinda injecting a bit of fun. Good stuff! Only downside is a I don't like drunk sex with hubby as he smells LOL. He normally gets evicted from the bedroom after a drinking spree! Guess I will just have to be naughty and join in with a glass or 2.
  • You should get him on grain spirits really - no smell! You could theme the poker night to Casino Royale and serve martinis - all in the aid of TTC!

    Oh my goodness people LOL. We are having a house full of people at the weekend staying over for poker night on Saturday. The weekend will be my most fertile time ... This could be eventful ... Our bed isn't quiet :-o

    Sex in the shower is fun! And the noise of the running water covers a multitude of sins. You can tell I have children, can't you :D

    I've had a run in with the most tactless person I have ever met today I think! I took DD and the toddler to rhyme time at the local library. DD is 10 and is my disabled child. It is quite obvious to look at her, as she is very uncoordinated in her movements and makes strange twitches with her arms and legs. She also can't talk and sometimes makes odd noises. This old biddy sits down beside me, and after a while asks me what is wrong with her. Not wanting to go into all of her varied diagnoses, I just said politely that she had very severe learning difficulties as this would explain the fact that she wasn't answering any of the questions the old biddy was firing in her direction, or even paying them much attention. There was a pause, and then she said "Oh, well, She'll grow out of that" :eek: She then went on to ask her name, and when told said "Oh I love those old fashioned names" (her name isn't really) and the piece de resistance asked me about 10 minutes after that whether she was my granddaughter ( I was the grand old age of 31 when she was born!) Still not sure how I managed to stay pleasant and polite after all of this. I do try to indulge old people who don't seem to have anyone else and are lonely, but this one really took the biscuit.

    Sounds like your daughter had the right idea in ignoring her Nicki. I've never forgotten the time when I was on my first teaching practice and there was a little boy with Asperger's in the class. He was having one of his flaps and running round the room and we found the best way to deal with this, was to let him get on with it so that he eventually self-soothed (this was a year 1 class). The woman who had come to assess my teaching was really rude (I would say she was around 70 and had been out of teaching for a while) and pointed at him, saying, "Him! What's wrong with him?" I explained that he had Asperger's and thought this an ideal time to talk about how I adapted my teaching to include him, and another girl with cerbral palsy (functioning at the level of a 2-year-old and unable to speak or walk), and she didn't want to know! He was a dear little boy, and all she could see was the fact that he was different!

    Sex in the shower is fun, but I don't think we'll try that when trying to conceive, as "the boys" would be washed away!
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    That does make me cross! No wonder some teachers don't want to have special needs children in their classrooms, when their efforts to accomodate them are not given proper value. My own MIL had this attitude when she taught, back in the day when you could choose whether or not you wanted to, and got an SEN pay point if you agreed. She is lovely though now that she has a little granddaughter to look after.

    Your story though reminds me though of showing an inspector round my DD's school with the Headteacher on an Ofsted inspection (I am a governor). We walked into one class and a 13 year old with autism said to the head, "Mr X I am so cross with you I'm going to boot you up your !!!!" As we were leaving that classroom, quick as a flash, the head turned to the inspector and said: "we place great emphasis on teaching our children to use colloquial language here" :rotfl: We got rated outstanding for that inspection :D
