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.

Doing a bit of Gizzy is always a good plan.
Second only to doing a lot of Gizzy.
Is everyone off on thir hols now, then, save you two? I hope to be around a bit more from now on.

I'm not going anywhere, Massive. Have you finally got your space back a bit then?

Yup, things quietened down considerably, now! And I even think we're about to get some rain.

Breaking news: or not ,maybe, for Twitterers. The Man is back in NZ!

Yup - saw it yesterday - was it the comment about someone seeing him having lunch with Orlando Bloom?

So who wanted to watch BTS then? I know Small & Spiro did but was there anybody else?

So glad things are getting back to normal for you at last, Massive! We are away from Tuesday to Friday next week, in London, but I will still be reading (though can't usually reply from mobile). I did see about The Man being back, yes. Probably just as well, I can start to concentRAte a bit more :) Or maybe not, as I've just watched the first 2 eps of BTS! It's actually very good, isn't it?! If a little depressing. Waiting for things to get a move on now though, so to speak :o Am getting impatient for the dinner party scene

DrTwigs has gone to get the kids back so I have another 2 hours of freedom and then that's that for a good few months. I said that if he went to get them I would start getting things ready for London but I might try and finish ep 3 first. Ssssh, don't tell.

Who wants to watch BTS? Well, me too but some 'opes, eh?

Yes, the tweet was about him having lunch with OB. Bet that table gave the waitress's innards a bit of a wobble. Mind you, it looks like a beautiful place to eat even without them there. Sigh!

I hope you enjoyed your kid-free time. Shouldn't this kind of thing happen more frequently? Tell that Professor Twiggins of yours, you need it, for health ReAsons.

It did look lovely, didnt't it? Right by the sea

@ health ReAsons. My mum isn't up to having them both too often (they are extremely demanding) but I've told him that I am going out by myself once a month so he can have them then. LOL @ Professor Twiggins :o "I'm a good girl, I am, I washed me 'ands and face before I came..."

Just checking in quickly to say howdy but off again. Will atch up with you tomorrow but in the meantime, yes please to any dvds!

Spiro, Swordfish is on tonight with a leetle bit of HJ.

Hi Small! Hope your trip is going well!

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, Recognise Magazine is going ahead and RA is in the next issue! Woohoo!

Woo hoo indeed, Twigs! Did a little bird tell you?

A little bird - I just got that :) Yes, it was.

The mag is going to be out at the end of the month. Spiro, did you see that Tracey Emin is in it? So there's your ReAson for buying it!

Will get DVDs in the post today, hopefully. Along with boarding the Stoopid Rabbit, going shopping, getting DD's hair cut, posting eBay items and goodness knows what else.

Trying to pack for London - am exhausted just thinking about everything.

Poor you, Twiggy - I am sat here recovering from my own Ordeal! Good news about the mag.

Just getting used to my new machine too. Windows 7 is extremely fiddly!
Any suggestions for some nice Wallpaper for my desktop?

Oh b*gger I got the Number of the Beast again!

Oh I think Windows 7 is what my parents have - I hate it, I don't know where anything is. It's like when they hcange the aisles round in the supermarket.

Would something like this do the trick, Massive?

Oh, I forgot - I also have to buy taps!

Oh boy, I wish! That is a supermassive smoulder he's got going on there. Yum! It might get me some awkward questions asked, though

I don't know whether it's Windows 7 or the machime but there's no bleddy double click, i am having to right click then open everything.

Still, mustn't grumble, it takes me 30 secs to get onine instead of 15 minutes...

Taps???? Maybe i shouldn't ask about those!

We're putting in a downstairs bathroom and I bought the sink but then realised I didn't get any taps, so have to sort those out ASAP. Have just ordered them though. Blimey, taps are expensive

Actually, I'm thinking of having wallpaper in the bathroom - wonder if I could get away with that wallpaper on the walls?!

Fancy having those eyes following you when you are at your ablutions. I'd never stop blushing! In the nicest possible way of course

I am treating myself and re-reading the Highwayman.

Oh I luuuurrrrrrve The Panther. He is quite something, isn't he? Did we tell you that we got your post about it when we were in London and all read it on the way home? :)

I knew Small did, but not everyone else. So happy to have been able to contribute towards your day.

I would stand and deliver for the Panther any day. He has just crept into the inn, the naughty man.

Morning!

Twigs, sounds like you have a busy day ahead! I also have a lot on, got a big project starting this week and several quotes to do - fingers crossed ladies.

I love the Panther too, some of the other are rather - um - strange.

:o at stand and deliver Ooooh, the creeping into the inn is a great bit

Good luck with your project Small! Also it feels very odd calling you Small now that I know you are at least three times as tall as me :o

Only 2.5 times taller surely?! I have to say that's why writing Mr Small always makes me laugh as he is a good 7" taller than me!
