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!

Laptop battery is about to die and can't get the charger from downstairs as I'm meant to be having an early night.

Spiro, Jordan? Grin.

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 21:54

Actually that wasn't who I had in mind but I take your point (can't imagine it ever happening somehow, thank God!)

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 22:12

Well, that's killed the 'conversation' stone dead.

Or are you all thinking about it Hmm!

I really don't spend a great deal of time obsessing about the Man's love life, but there is just this one actress and every time I see her I think "mmm - yuk!" which is probably very unfair and obviously has bugger all to do with me, but it's just a gut reaction.

cornishpasty · 15/07/2011 22:15

Come on then Spiro give us a clue?

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:17

I suppose I like to stay in cloud cuckoo land, Spiro Wink

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 22:22

OK, don't shoot if you're a fan 'cos I used to like her too but these days...meh...

Kate Winslet

Just typing it makes my toes curl and not in a good way!

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 22:31

Someone say something. Now I'm thinking I've turned myself into Public Enemy No1 with that comment!

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:32

I like the other Cate though. Why have you suddenly taken agin her, then?

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 22:33

::staggers in, even more shakily than usual::

The beard ... the short hair ... oh my ... oh my.

::swoons onto the Aubusson and just happens to land on top of Mr Thornton::

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 22:35

Wibblus maximus

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:38

I thought you might appreciate the face fungus , Maudie. Grin

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:40

Mr Thornton will be consigning his trusty cut-throat razor to the dustbin

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 22:40

It's not sudden and I still think she's a brilliant actress. But over the years I get the impression that she's gone from being very down to earth and straightforward to coming across rather Machiavellian and quite full or herself.

I may be totally wrong and she may be just as 'normal' as the rest of us in real life, but she just sets my teeth on edge these days.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 22:46

Oh drat. The link doesn't take you back to the same photo - it was the one where he's smouldering at the camera in what looks like his mother's suede coat that I was after. I have always appreciated a properly-grown (aka not teenage fluff) beard.

Yet Mr Thornton ::looks down fondly at his supine form:: need have no fear.

It's delightful to see you again, Cornishpasty. Please stick around. We have recently been enrolling new students ::looks at LadyDamerel tied to a chair in the corner of the library:: and always have room for those who are returning after a sabbatical.

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:49

Well we all have our favourite ''love to hates'' , Spiro. Hardly the same, but the Beckhams really get on my nerves

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 22:53

I bet all those fan blogs are going into melt-down over these, mother's old gardening coat, filched from the potting shed , notwithstanding!

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 22:56

The Beckhams - is there anyone whose nerves they don't get on?

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 22:56

A friend used to have this concept of people you would want to hit with a rolled-up newspaper, ie not to cause serious damage but just to let them know how irritating they are. My list for this accolade is even longer than Twiggy's List of Lust.

SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 23:04

Can we name names, or is it a bit unfair?

DumSpiroSpero · 15/07/2011 23:05

Oh do tell Maud - It might stop me feeling like a total cow for my character assassination on Miss Winslet (although in my defence I was at college with someone who went to school with her and she was even less complimentary)

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 23:11

I've sent you some names, Spiro.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 23:35
SupermassiveLBD · 15/07/2011 23:49

My computer is misbehaving so I shall have to go.

Good night and sweet dreams to all!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 15/07/2011 23:54

::Looks back at you::

I did wonder whether your 'puter had conked out, Massive. A domani, as we say in sarf London.

LadyDamerel · 16/07/2011 08:53

::struggles out of Maud's restraining bonds::

I have a longish list of people who make me want to rip my own arm off, just so I have something to hit them with.

The proud possessor of 1st place is Myleene Klass, chiefly because of her unbearable smugness.
