It's Morse Code. Like that blinking Austrian abduction girl. It's a long time since I was in Navy Cadets, but it translates something like: ++HELPME PLEASE HEPL ME STOP MISC F KEEPIN ME PRISNER STOP BAND A CREUL CHARADE STOP BE LOVIN ME ASSWISE IN DUNGEON STOP HIM STOP HIM STOP HIM STOP++
I've always been a little obsessed with Turtle, ralph. She boils my blood like no other poster ever has, cooks up more bile in me than her posts warrant. I've never really understood it. Today's trigger was reading her outburst in the pome thread (I hadn't read it all before). Anyway, just ignore me and I'll turn reasonable again.

What an uncommonly idyllic weekend. God, the bastard, decided to make amends by finding us a B&B with no woodwork tools on the wall, providing balmy sunshine when the rest of the country was being pissed on, organising absurdly scenic miles of deserted sandy beach, providing not one but two absurdly upmarket gastropubs on a Georgian square, and laying on a picture-perfect ruined abbey in heaven-style gardens reached through a little unassuming door.
He tried to spoil it by raining all over our stately 'ome trip on the way home yesterday, but as the 'ome in question had a moat, it just added to the watery loveliness. We were even seduced into joining the National Trust.

It was one of those rare holidays when getting away does actually leave your cares behind. I saw a glimpse of ben's sunlit morn...

Hey Herbs. This is probably a completely uncool thing to say (even by my standards) but the National Trust is ace! No matter where you are, there are always at least three National Trust properties you can visit and, once you're a member, you don't have to pay! Nor are beige cardigans required admission attire!
Glad you had a good weekend, love.

Decided to throw money at this problem, and went to a doctor on Harley Street (oooOOOoooh) who said that the likelihood of losing the baby the way I did was about the same as losing it full term. I had large amounts of blood taken out of my arm for tests, and an even larger amount of money taken out of my bank account. But you do get a nicer class of waiting room.
Imagine my delight to come home and find some flowers delivered - a lovely gift from my friends on the internet. How very 2.0.
Thank you all very much. They're lovely. If I wasn't a retard, I'd make a picture of them come on the internet. But sadly I am.

Just had a six-month pregnant woman come up to me in the kitchen, and say 'oof, can't wait to go on maternity leave', rub her belly, etc. I had to stare at the floor and blink a lot.
I sent a pic of the flaars to some I suspected of being in on the kind buying. Maybe one of them could make it come on the internet.

Pregnants aren't exactly renowned for being able to talk about anything other than being pregnant, are they?
I was thinking last night that you (herbs) are a bit like a combination of Ruth and Ros on Spooks.

That's them! I'll move them somewhere rather more scenic tonight. I don't think they're set to their best advantage between and iron and some Dettox multi-surface cleaner.

Ruth's quiet and clever and gets the job done, and Ros is the feisty blonde who's starting to get all the good lines.
Spooks last night was ace- I want a job where I can bark into a phone, "get me the prime minister's Chief of Staff on a secure line". Second only to the job where I can bellow, "where the hell's my S.W.A.T team?"
Anyway, I like the design of your clock- with extra big numbers, and the hour circled as well- so bleary hungover eyes can find it easier to tell the time.

See how I cunningly took the picture to re-enact those bleary eyes.
Damn! The reason for not watching Spooks is even sadder. I was watching celebrity wife swap, with molten pile of human vile John McCrirrick.

I enjoyed Edwina Curry's attempt at pulling out of the driveway with non-driver Teh Crirrick giving directions along the lines of "you're clear to the left if you go right now" and words of kind encouragement such as "Good woman!"
I wanted Booby and JJ to have filthy sex in the garden, followed by a packet of post-coital fags, but sadly that didn't happen.

So, this time things are different. I'm on the magic pills from the magic doctor in Harley Street who's going to make everything alright. I have two scans, both of which are fine. Last week's (11 weeks) was just routine; a bit of an inconvenience actually. I'm a busy woman.
So what did he mean, it's bad news? Why wasn't Buster moving? This was the one who was going to be OK. Who meant I wasn't going to be childless forever. What have I done. Was it that glass of champagne the other week? Vigorous gardening? What the FUCK is the matter with me. And why the FUCK is the whole FUCKING world all about families and babies and the fact that your whole life is pointless without then, and why am I beginning to believe them. And what the FUCK am I going to do now.

Truly saddenned to hear that- I was sure this was going to be your year.
Could the forum's breeders/potential breeders perhaps shut up a bit for the time being?

Sorry. I know it's bad and spazzy form to not really post much as too obsessed with being up duff, then posting something it's impossible to respond to. But, you know. I'm mad, me.
Feel oddly sane at the moment, but have yet to encounter a small baby or a pregnant woman, at which point it will all probably go spectacularly wrong.

If you'd like, we can try and repress any overt parental tweeness that we come across with a stern glare and a muttered imprecation. Kind of a 'reclaim the streets' campaign, but instead aimed at nauseatingly sickeningly cloying smug chelsea types.
