has it been on here of late???? and its like a big black cloud has decided to sit over us all,c'mon ladies we need cheering up lol ive been itching to start a topic for ages but didnt have anything very interesting to type so im going with the usual waffle lol
and i wonder how i got to over 4000 posts hehe

I was thinking the same, I think it's the end of the month thing maybe.

I'm at work bored shitless and trying to think of an excuse why I'm not drinking tonight at my dad's 60th birthday party.

Any suggestions? xx

Hey Jock hows you?? I am surprisingly upbeat to say I am about to lose my business, have to put my house up for rent 2 days after finishing decorating a nursery that we will never use and have to leave the city we love to move back to the gun crime capital of Europe!

On the brightside all it took was a bit of alcohol and some 'looking on the brightside' to convince OH it was a good idea to TTC this month and we BDed 2 days before and on the day I think I OVed so I think we are in with a good chance this month!

PMA people, I have lots to spare right now!!

Queen Bee - I offered to drive and mum's booked a flipping minibus!

Miss I - loving your PMA - we should all look on the brightside, life is too short to be miserable.

hey miss I thats not good is it,but you do sem in good spirits good for you xxxx

GLK how about a dodgy tummy????? you dont want to upset it????

hey debbie hun 2 frickin days gowd sake lol are you going to test soon or just wait for AF?

Lemonade is a good one, if I get them to put it in the little glasses, everyone will be none the wiser - quick thinking batman!!

I've bought alcohol free beer to have at home so my parents think I'm still drinking!

GLK - water infection... antibiotics

GLK, say you're on antibiotics for a rather embarrassing problem - if anyone probes further, act like you're about to cry and say, "I'm sorry, I just don't want to talk about it". Or would that put a bit of a damper on the party...? x

GLK, say you have stopped drinking because you are a secret recovering alocoholic lol, that will shock em into not asking you again lol.



There is no secret about it!! My brother once said to me "alcoholism runs in the family - just embrace it"

Ha ha ha!!

I've found parties are the easiest places not to drink as people just assume the glass of wine you've been nursing for 3 hours is 4 different drinks bought for you by different people!
Good luck with it GLK!

lol claire the pics of Scott? has phil shaved his head?? or just gone short?

I am so glad I don't drink very often, no one questions it when I don't drink so I won't have that problem!

Thanks Erial, I have got everything crossed but not getting too excited, I know where that leads!!

It's a sit down meal first - they'll all end up so drunk they won't notice me being sober!!

Thanks for the ideas ladies.

So for ther record I'm an alcoholic who's driving and has a rather embarrasing infection that I really don't want to talk about - think that will stop the wondering!!

I've noticed this too, it's bn quiet all week!! That's not necessarily a bad thing tho as i've actually managed to get some work done without all the distractions!! x

Ok - I've started a Thursday topic - lets liven this place up!

xx

Yes, it has been a bit quieter on here of late, even though there seems to be loads of newbies!

Don't worry Grudie, they'll all be logging on tomorrow eagerly awaiting your Fridays topic! It's the highlight of my week xx

Girls
I have thought the same and cos it's quiet I then don't come on here as often.
GLK - antibiotics always a good one, or say your nursing a hangover form teh night before which is so bad you can't possibly drink again?
xxxx

Emma - I live at my parents house at the mo so they know my every movement - think I might do the headache/skint/tired answer.

Saying that my dad will just slip me some money and tell me it's his treat bles him!

Ah bless him, how sweet is that! You poor thing, it's going to be a tough one isn't it xx

I give it two weeks before my mum asks if I'm pregnant, she'll know for sure - mothers intuition!
