    Good morning everyone :D
    *passes Mrs Chip the paracetamol and an ice pack* I think Jojo might have your knickers. She was last seen holding them with a pair of kitchen tongs.

    Well David Tennant and the alien were both gone when I got up this morning, so I'm a bit upset. I wanted a trip in the Tardis.

    Fingers crossed today is the day I get the money back that I lent to the "lady" who conned me out of it. I managed to ask her husband about it on Monday, he of course knew nothing about it and I'm sorry I had to bring him into it, but I need that money back. I'll let you know what happens.

    I'm on day 26 of my no sugar month and sitting in front of a shopping bag containing 3 tubs of sweets, 3 bags of lollies and 4 bags of fun size chocolates. This is what happens when your DH loves Halloween and we have every kid in the neighbourhood visiting, as we are the only house that really decorates. We have 6 or 7 binbags of Halloween stuff in the attic and DH is wondering where to get a half zombie from. (He wants to bury it in the garden so it looks like it is rising from the dead). Ahhhhh the joys of the holiday season :rotfl:

    I'm trying to motivate myself this morning and failing right now. Hopefully the second bucket of earl grey will do the trick.

    Have a wonderful day xxx

    I wonder if a half shop dummy will do? Are you near any department stores?

    Brian Cox? You cant be a sex symbol and be called Brian. Its not possible. You cant swaggerjagger with a Brian, can you?

    Seems I missed a great party :) swagger after Brian Cox? Ewwwww his wet fishy lips are a turn off. However I will settle for Adam Levine, Hugh Jackman, Johnny Depp to name just a few off a VERY long list ;)

    Wasp was finally found and sent on it's way to waspy heaven ;)

    Me and H had another one of our conversations about me going out on Friday. He seems to think at 36 and mother of two I should be hanging up my dancing shoes :( I mean I could understand if he thought I was going out on the pull (which I am most certainly not :eek:) and getting sh*tfaced but I won't have more than a couple of drinks. The days of disgracing myself are over. But I love to have a boogie is there really anything wrong in that?

    Anyway had better get on, hope the hangovers ease a bit ;)

    I'll never forget the year my Mum decided to make her own advocaat which involved leaving eggs lying in lemon juice for days until they cracked?? We all avoided that corner of the kitchen :)

    The eggs are left to soak until they are completely soft, then the whole egg is whizzed up to make the drink. When I read the recipe for it I was completely put off:eek:

    Just popping in to check everyone is ok after last night's fun and to help with the tidying up.

    Bitsy Beans at 36 you're most definitely not ready to hang up your dancing shoes! And as a mum of two little ones you deserve a night out for a boogie. I'm about 10 years older than you and still occasionally get the urge for a boogie, the only problem I have is all the decent places don't warm up till later in the evening by which time I'm ready for my bed :rotfl: Hope you do go out and have a fab time!

    Off to cook the chickpeas to go in the falafel burgers for tea tonight. Have a good day peeps (and hope the hangovers are quickly cured by the bacon rolls/chocolate/orange juice)

    Morning Kimsmum, sorry you missed the party, it was a doozie!
