Would you like a glass of Chateau Gizzy?

As long as it's not the dead squirrel one, Spiro, I won't care

The Tumbleweed beard, Massive

I stand corrected, Spiro

I'm heading off now, my eyes are crossing.
Night and sweet dreams to all.

Night - sorry I disappeared earlier...technical problems you know.

Morning ladies anyone for a nice cuppa?

The beard in that last clip looked like something else entirely .

I shall not enquire further about that, Small.

I have just seen RH2.6 on the telly. the one with the Black Knigths, fringe flop and Alan eyeing Guy up as he puts on a clean tee-shirt. As well he might.

I find myself a bit annoyed with the scriptwriters for having him bleat Marion, Marion all the time. I am sure he'd have been doing so mentally but his ego wouldn't let him voice it aloud quite so much.

He looked very scrumptious in his famous black leather keks, meanwhile.

Massive, I have visions of you in our cinema watching RH on loop .

I have discovered that you can show pics on your profile to selected people only - who fancies letting me see them? I am bored and nosey and would love to know what you all look like.

Small, I have to watch RH on loop, I missed the show when it came out for one thing. And am doing serious research here, you know. If I ever decide to get into fanfic, I need to get the characterisation and dialogue right, don't I? To say nothing of the descriptive bits.

Righto, Small, just for you have set up a profile. No pics of me as am at work, but you should be able to have a nosey at DD (you were SnowyMoon at one point, weren't you? Have got it set up for Mumsnet Mates only)

Spiro, I can't see any of your photos. yes I set mumsnet mates I have added you on, I keep forgetting everyones full names so have to come back and check.

Massive i do understand, tis a very serious subject matter that requires appropriate levels of viewing.

Ok - have unlocked it - see if that works.

Yay I can see her now but tis a small pic. She looks lovely - and her room is very pink!!

It is - but tbh it looked like a boys room until she about 3 and a half 'cos she had black, white & primary as a baby, then was mad on Balamory so was all blue & yellow.

It only went really pink last year

She is lovely - much nicer than having a pic of me on there anyway!!!

I we still need a pic of you! Do you look like your DD? Can you access mine?

Ooooh, not sure about pic of me - especially having seen yours - you look v. glam, and your boys are very cute too - how old are they?

Weeell that was a quite a while ago, add several pounds, grey hair and wrinkles and it might be more accurate! I have no nice recent photos. Boys are 6 (7 next month) and 3 1/2.

I will put up a more realistic phot of me if it makes you feel better?!

My DD is 7 in September.

As for the photo - stick with that one - I haven't got any good recent photos either - so I'll go for an old one and ditto with the pounds, wrinkles and greys.

Really must do some work now though as have got day off tomorrow!

I'm here, I'm here! Sorry to disappear suddenly - DD was in bed but started calling for me and then I was up there with her for a while and was too exhausted to come down again once I'd finally got her to sleep! Then had rubbish night and had to go back to bed in morning so have been off comms for ages. Small, will reply about Disneyland and all other stuff later.

Just checking in. Can see LittleMissSpiro but not the SmallBoys. Small obviously doesn't count me as a friend.

::weeps quietly::

That said, you will never see a photo of me.

You are my friend Maud, have added you to the list (only did Spiro initially then went out!), you've seen me anyway. I'd love to see what you look like, it's so nice to be able to put a face to a name.

Twigs, you sound like you're having a nightmare! I've made you a .
