The Virtual Lounge

[Anonymous]

well, fluffy onesie on + donkey brown boottee-tyle slippers

cuppa Twinnings tea = everyday variety, decaff + s/sk milk = no sugar +

Blue Ribband original choccy bic to hand

checking on my cat Marvellous Marty the Magnificent = beside me in his pet-bed under the wooden desk 

on which new basic desktop printer will be put = on or around next payday ..... I mean upon the wooden desk not upon the cat  

kicked my old basic Epson printer in frustration many many months ago 

therapeutic for me for about 3 nano-seconds but really, really bad for the printer 

well, let's see if there are many takers for my initial entry into the off-top unofficial world of 'the lounge area'

Neither has he I suspect....

well, my hands are very, very cold ..... I'm wrapped up warm, elsewhere & the central heating is on ..... today the weather has been cold, dry underfoot but a bitter wind is blowing ..... I can't find my miser mitts (gloves with the last finger digit uncovered) ..... & ..... I can't get earrings other than studs with a post & butterfly fastening into either ear = now I don't feel dressed without wearings earrings (not chandelier/shoulder-dusters mindst you ) even a creole fastening = basically a bit of a wiggly line which slots at the back of the ear into a small 'horseshoe' fastening = it's not my cold hands that's the problem & just persevering with trying to push the earrings through only makes the ear-lobe sore ..... & ..... I've had my ears pierced since I was 16 ..... anyone else had this problem with piercings? 

[Cleoriff]

Thankfully Jane.....only ears pierced.... (Two per ear)

My lads had their ears done....My eldest who was a Goth back in the day...had 6 piercing in his right ear......

(funnily enough doesn't wear any now)

hi Cleoriff

I had always imagined my son would have a Goth for a girlfriend somehow

it didn't happen ..... yet .....  he did have a good friend from secondary school who became a Goth, & she looked great, I remember her hair = long jet-black & curly 

I have the one piercing in each ear = quite tame really 

have just joined Mumsnet & made my 1st post ..... impressed with the forum really, a good discussion about maternity/paternity leave atm

the cat been inside all day so no doubt will want to go out at some ungodly hour & keep me up until he decides to come in  how do you keep control of your cats comings & goings 

[Cleoriff]

My cats behave like dogs...if they are out and it's time to come in.....my husband goes to the door and whistles

They come running....
