Our patroness is considered rather taking when she is animated

and the Vice Chancellor would like to remind you all of the importance of the wearing of a correctly tied cravat.

Night Lady D - and Maud if you're still around. I'm off to bed too.

::Wonders why LadyDamerel is morphing into ::

I am taking the arrests and injunctions as read, LadyDamerel, irrespective of who might be seen in the vicinity of a flowerpot. And did you notice the forearms, by the way?

Ooops. Slow to post. LadyDamerel had indeed noticed the lovely forearms. Looks like I'm on my own now.

::Turfs out Uzi the cat, turns off the lights and returns to her first love::

Well Hellllooo Georgie boy. Very nice to see you.

We seem to share very similar taste in men, Maud. Mr Clooney was a huge crush of mine in his ER days.

::joins 79,000,000 other women sharing same taste in men::

Morning everyone. Spiro, thank you so much for finding that out about the cinema. All I could see was far-away places like Islington, Fulham etc. so well done you. Here, have this award I think you are right about nobody wanting to see it in 2D on a weekday afternoon so I'm sure we'll be fine. Yes, I have booked the restaurant for 1230pm. Does everybody know where it is? PM me if not. Plan will be to meet outside at 1220-1230. Can somebody else claim and print out a 2 for 1 voucher? I'll bring one with me but if someone else brings one then we can get 2 meals for free. I will PM the link.

Maudie, talk about Gorgeous George, what a fantastic photo! He really looks good with grey hair, I think. Funny how it really suits some people and just makes others look old - DrTwigs is grey (it happened about 20 minutes after meeting me :o) and I think it looks great on him.

Right, I have PM'd you all the necessary details and I am now off out for the day (making clay cups and then going to the beach). If anybody has any questions or needs to check anything then PM me and I will reply tonight.

Havbe a good day, ladies!

Never mind the award Twigs - I'll take the presenter!

PM me the voucher link and I'll make sure I bring one with me.

George Clooney does nothing for me...I have tried and tried to 'get it' but nothing doing. I think his nose is probably too small!

Arf @ 'nose is too small', Spiro.

I think it's a good job you've stepped away from the showbiz side of work - I don't think it would go down that well if you hefted the award giver over your shoulder and marched off stage with him .

Oops, a bit post-happy there. Meant to add, off out all day to sort all the last minute bits and pieces we need for the camping trip next week.

Oh joy.

See you all later...

Mr S has just stumbled across 'Plunkett & McClean' on some random film channel - enough to put you off highwaymen for life (almost ).

Ironically they ate just about to hang a Lord Pelham.

you sound like you are watching closely Spiro . Speaking of highway men, have there been any new installments?

A bit of both, Small. That has cheered me up nicely though.

from the same songsters as I Am Not A Horse.

::staggers in::

Yes, Twiggy and LadyDamerel, I had almost forgotten, until I watched Out Of Sight again last night, quite how jaw-droppingly handsome Mr Clooney is. That pic is an especial joy - I hadn't seen it before. Short grey hair + beard = swoon to the power of n.

::collapses on the Aubusson::

::not before making Spiro an appointment at Specsavers::

Short grey hair + beard = swoon to the power of n.

Weirdly, I find F1 boss Eddie Jordan quite compelling, but I think that's a case of short grey hair + beard x Irish accent!

Small I will look forward to viewing that link later - am on phone at the mo.

Arrgh, Small. Good job the computer was muted. That was quite a fillip to my flagging spirits, too

Spiro, your LoL never ceases to astound me. It's a very eclectic selection, isn't it?

Massive, you found the mute button then?

Hang on a minute......

George Clooney is NOT on the LoL but Eddie Jordan is?

What is wrong with you, woman?

You and I are definitely on the same wavelength, LadyDamerel. Preferring Eddie ::disbelief:: Jordan to the divine Mr Clooney?

::re-books Spiro's appointment at Specsavers::

I didn't say I fancied EJ as such, just that there is something compelling about him (another one with a slightly quirky nose!). In abstract obviously I can see what women like about GC, but he tbh he strikes me as a bit of a Himbo (feel free to correct me if there's evidence to the contrary - obviously I don't read/watch anything much about him).

::backs away from clearly deluded Spiro::
