Ta da!

Synchronicity, Holly!

Mr Thornton's entreaties indeed!

I do admit we got a little too tied up with 850 year old bad boys and rather good-looking spymen with ambivalent personalities,. during our studies.

I thought it was but thought I'd best check! Who's up for a festive mojito?!

It was a fine piece of creative writing on your part, Holly. I re-read it only the other day.

Damn it. On iPhone so can't click the links booooooooo!

What's a mojito? A little mojo?

Tied up, Holly? You wish!

My eyes have packed up and I'm on my way to bed, but a festive mojito? Hmm. As a nightcap, why not? Thank you, cupcakes.

Mr Thornton is so delicious to write about, Missy, so restrained yet so and to see the way his whole face lights up is something beyond oooh.

Well, I shall certainly raise my glass to that litle thought, Missy.

What did I say last time, now?

Aha, me proud beauty. Now it's your turn to beg!

If you can't open the link, cupcakes, that was poor Gizzy, tied to a tree.

Well, last time we saw your version of Mr Thornton he was tilting up my face and forcing me to meet the electric blue fire in his eyes. Should you ever get the creative urge to write another paragraph or two (without, of course, descending to Runcorn Romance's tawdry level), don't fight it.

Mojito recipe

Oaky doaky, Missy, I shall muse on the topic.

No, only kidding.

Hi Guys - looks like hubby has nicked the laptop so I'm still on the iPhone...

Ah but if, taking his lead from Lovelace only in this respect, he were to sing, that might be quite appealing. Or perhaps a few notes on the cello?

Well, that mojito was delicious. Good night all. I leave you with .

Goodnight Missy, sleep well. I shall think on your suggestions.
Hello Oyster, how was your movie?

It was very good actually - I always like a Cohen Brothers movie. Jeff Bridges excellent as usual, Matt Damon surprisingly good too.

Off to NZ in Jan, back in summer?

That's 6 months of diet & exercise followed by lots of cultural trips to the capital during the summer hols then!

Just been looking at Missy's parting gift. That scene gets to me, no matter how many times I watch it.

Shameful confession now. I fell asleep in the middle of listening to CD 7 of LOTN, last night. How could I? I will probably get drummed out of the Academy.

Cultural trips to the capital - NO he's got to come back to the UK and do The Rover during the hols....!!!

Yes, I have watched the parting gift too, lovely distraction... and got distracted by a couple of other things too..

I like your spirit, MrsLNP! Who Dares Wins, and all that

What next to buy on the Armitage shopping list....? Of the ones I have not seen...

• Between the Sheets
• Ultimate Force
• The Golden Hour
• Cold Feet

I'm starting to lean towards finally buying Between the Sheets...?

You have got a lot of expense ahead of you there, Oyster.

Oh I am not buying them all now, and I will probably never buy some of them....

Just feeling like I might give myself a little after-Christmas pressie...!
