Massive you must follow Gizzy! He's not true to character but he's hilarious and really naughty.

He growled at me the other week and asked me out on a date at Wimbledon Common Grin!

Did you make all those, Spiro? Goodness, clever you.
My cakes always turn out wonky.

DumSpiroSpero · 04/03/2011 21:17

DD & I have birthdays a week apart, so I ended up making 2 enormous slabs of rocky road and 48 fairy cakes in one hit for her party and for me to take to work.

I never learn do like a challenge Hmm

The fame of Gizzy's shenanigans has gone round the world, I can tell you. I think I shall have to get more twitter-familiar before I risk submitting a humble request though Grin

Did you go? On the date, I mean? Wink

DumSpiroSpero · 04/03/2011 21:25

No! Just a bit of twirting. He's probably my fave of the characters on Twitter cos he doesn't take it too seriously or appear to have favourites (apart from Sarah Millican). He spends most of his time drinking ale, moaning about toothache and hangover and taunting JP about what he'd like to get up to with his daughter!

I thought you said he wasn't in character Grin --well, I suppose the toothache isn't, not with those pearly whites that are so much in evidence each time he bellows.

DumSpiroSpero · 04/03/2011 21:40

Does he do a lot of the rest in RH then? Have only seen.about half a dozen episodes.

Anyway, time for a bit more John Standring for me. Have somehow ended up writing this one in long-hand rather than on the PC which is long-winded but kind of feels right iykwim?

He drinks quite a lot so I expect he has hangovers-- he looks pretty wasted all throught the third series Grin About the wenching, I expect he does a bit of that too, after Marian has led him a dance.

Remind me again what I see in this man.

Oooh have fun with the writing.

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 04/03/2011 22:20

He's obsessed by Noomi though...

TheSmallPrint · 04/03/2011 22:21

well I feel as silly as a school girl with a crush on Boyzone Grin, I luuurve The Drover.

Bloody hormones. Grin

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 04/03/2011 22:22

The Drover..what's that, Small?

I think I may need to go and lie down for a bit...

TheSmallPrint · 04/03/2011 22:34

The Drover is the character in Australia Phoenix.

SupermassiveLBD · 04/03/2011 22:37

I expect this calls for the doctor's tender ministrations.
Even though he now has A Rival. Wink

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 04/03/2011 22:38

Oh you mean that Baz Luhrmann movie with Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman....??

TheSmallPrint · 04/03/2011 22:41

Yes that film Phoenix

I think I made need something stronger than the dr, I think only the big guns can pull me back to the other side tonight

TheSmallPrint · 04/03/2011 22:48

Are you all on Amazon?

DumSpiroSpero · 04/03/2011 22:51

Nope! I've been cueing up some vinyl and pouring myself a large NZ sauv blanc - happy days! Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 04/03/2011 22:54

But if that fails, and as it's Friday night I have just one word for you Small...
