I am brain-dead tonight so this is rubbish - just a place-holder. Please do something else if you can think of a decent one!

TDHBECMO = My fiancé, Small, so hands off.

I think most of these devotional objects come in other denominations.

Either you have a remarkably retentive memory, Massive, or Kevin and Perry are running a spreadsheet. But you are quite right, that song has always made me squirm. And not in a good way.

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 22:15

I always forget what the CMO stands for. Probably because as lovely as Mr T is I'd rather have a TDHBEHNS!

I try not to forget my faux pas Maudie

Can you.. . ... get PLFW tat objets d'art ?

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 22:18

Totally with you in BOTW, Maud, although I like a lot of their other stuff. Weirdly I had a dream last week that I went back to doing hospital radio and had to do a programme on Paul Simon ^confused]!

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 22:22

yes you can

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/07/2011 22:27

Looks like we've got the full range of display, Spiro!

I like much of S&G's stuff but that song is so mawkish that I've never been able to stand it. I heard too late that Paul Simon was in the country recently - I would have loved to have seen him live.

SupermassiveLBD · 11/07/2011 22:29

Smouldering? SMOULDERING???

If that's smouldering, I'm the Sheriff of Nottingham.

I am loving the enlarge button placed conveniently underneath.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/07/2011 22:32

I was deploying my legendary irony, Massive.

SupermassiveLBD · 11/07/2011 22:39

We all know that, Maud, but I didn't want any casual lurkers to get the wrong end of the stick.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/07/2011 22:40

You are quite right, my dear, we have stringent standards for smouldering.

::COFG::

SupermassiveLBD · 11/07/2011 22:45

That one certainly works every time.

Tee hee! I've had enough of today so am going to bed.

Bonne nuit a tous!

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 23:09

Sweet dreams Maud!

SupermassiveLBD · 11/07/2011 23:10

Spiro, what can I say but Better, but not good enough

Night night Maud, and here's hoping you have sweet dReAms without having to avail yourself of one of those divine pillowcases.

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 23:12

Do not, I repeat DO NOT rush out and buy one yourself

Too late...SMFV strikes again! Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 11/07/2011 23:13

Night night.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/07/2011 23:13

::Looks back at you::

I can assure you, Massive, that all my bedlinen is pristine white cotton from my fiancé's own cotton mill and I have no need of that hideous tat unusual article.

SupermassiveLBD · 11/07/2011 23:45

As if I had an invisible audience.. Flatter myself, don't I?

Night, Spiro.

And goodnight everyone, one and all.

PassTheTwiglets · 12/07/2011 08:23

LOL at all your pics last night!

Spiro - HNS? All I could think of was Hsomething Nsomething Soldier or Spy.

So those of you not on Facebook - we have booked a holiday. You will all be so jealous. We are having... wait for it.... 2 nights at a Travelodge in Norwich :o We decided that we really shouldn't spend the money this year and thought we'd just get an early start and go to some Norfolk beaches a couple of days. We then realised that we could book one of these places for about £40 a night which would mean we are only 30 mins away, rather than 23 hours. So we get 3 full beach days for about £90 - can't be bad! Though I have to ring this morning and cancel the little cottage in Tenby that I had reserved :(

Also it means that we get to joke that we are going on holiday to Norwich Travelodge and that makes us giggle :) I am currently trying to find out if we need a visa or whether an up-to-date passport is enough...

PassTheTwiglets · 12/07/2011 08:25

I was wrong - it's not a Travelodge, it's a Premier Inn. So we are upgrading :)

Look, it's so exotic!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/07/2011 09:21

But many ricj and famous people stay at the Norwich travel lodge, Twiggy!

PassTheTwiglets · 12/07/2011 09:44

I think you will find that is the Linton Travel Tavern, Maud - but DrTwigs and I have, for the purposes of humour, been calling our hotel that anyway :) (we are huge AP fans).

OP posts:
ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/07/2011 10:08

Ah, Twiggy, I knew that dear Alan's hotel did not (for obvious libel reasons) have the name of any real hotel but decided not to dig out the dvd to check. I am very fond of Alan (Bloke says he is rather like an old boyfriend of mine, ahem) and was ridiculously excited that one of the actresses in the play wot we saw on Saturday (Doon McKichan) had appeared with Norwich's proudest blazer-wearer.

Our experience of staying in Norwich was less good - two nights in a hotel with a disco throbbing beneath our room and some inebriated wedding guest scraping their white car along the length of ours in the hotel car park, leaving a six foot long scratch and dent. Norfolk, eh.
