Not entirely tasteful, but it's what we all hoped really isn't it?

I don't think anyone has made comparisons between your ::ahem:: crush fixations and others', Massive - but perhaps the reference to hair-swishing makes that song particularly apposite for Guy? It is true that .

Have you seen that Bcc is doing a video challenge this monrh - one video every Monday. Today's video is up and it's a Guy one - haven't watched it yet though. Boo hiss though, I set her that "ooh, that man, I wanna kiss" song as a suggestion and I thought she was going to use it but she obviously changed her mind :( I will just have to wait 'til TwigBoy's at school full-time and then learn how to do it msyelf!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/09/2011 17:34

Would she consider If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me?

Having watched S1 and then S3 Robin Hood, The Girl has backtracked to S2. Any minute now, Guy is going to tell Marian to beg.

Oh, thud to the max, re that vid Twigs. A shame they didn't use the version with the vocals. that would have been extra yummy. This song was written in the 1180's by a very famous lady troubadour -I suppose the Lady Gaga of the age.

Re my own voice, there is husky and downright raucous, Maud. Sad

DumSpiroSpero · 12/09/2011 18:01

...If I swore you were an angel would you treat me like the devil tonight?"

Mmmmm! Very apt for our Sir Gizzy.

So, shopping shopped, cupcakes iced and birthday cake cheated!

Just cleaning, tidying, pass the parcel and gift wrapping to do now...Confused

She should be thrilled, Spiro, she is a lucky little girl.

Listen, ladies, don't ever put Spiro's Gizzy pic on zoom

DumSpiroSpero · 12/09/2011 18:44

Ooooo! I didn't try that Massive - will save that little treat for when I've got the rest of my chores done Grin!

Very interesting about Beatritz de Dia. In times of woe, I like to rock out to . She might have been a pin-up of Guy's.

Those are lovely cakes, Spiro.

Is anyone else finding that MN is being v v slow and chucking out their posts? Or is it just me?

SupermassiveLBD · 12/09/2011 19:01

Oh, do you like Hildegarde, too, Maud? She was a talented lady.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/09/2011 19:16

I love Hildegard. I wa introduced to her by my dentist, who used to play Feather on the Breath of God in the surgery. I suppose it was more likely to calm anxious patients. Hardly anybody else seems to have heard of her.

::Thinks::

Knows of (and perhaps admires) Hildegard ... was booted out of O level art ....

::light bulb moment::

Massive, are you me? Are you a spectral manifestation of my subconscious?

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/09/2011 20:16

::slumps on the chaise longoo, slurping sherry straight from the bottle::

PassTheTwiglets · 12/09/2011 20:19

Just heard from Bcc who said she'd try to do a vid with my song for the Man's next birthday :)

Spiro, hope all is going well and that you aren't in meltdown mode. We are all done here and I'm off to watch a bit of telly.

SupermassiveLBD · 12/09/2011 20:53

Perhaps I am your evil twin, Maud. Our taste in chaRActers bears this out - you with the upright Mr Thornton, and me with naughty Gizzy.

Welcome to the Dark Side

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/09/2011 21:05

Au contraire. Welcome to Purity and Truth, Massive

::Cue Hildegard and the Heavenly Host::

SupermassiveLBD · 12/09/2011 21:13

Well, yes. he almost has a halo there. In contrast with Spiro's Gizzy pic a little earlier, where he looks rawther bad. But, as I unfailingly add, comely withal.

DumSpiroSpero · 12/09/2011 21:16

All done, Twigs? Envy

Look at the little arc of skin peeping out here.

SupermassiveLBD · 12/09/2011 21:28

By gum, LadyD, you have eyes lke a hawk! The times I had seen that pic and never noticed.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/09/2011 21:35

Well, he has obviously not tucked his vest into his pants like his dear mama told him to. And are those pinstripe trousers in the 12th century? How very fashion forward.

::defibrillator on standby for Massive and LadyD::

LadyDamerel · 12/09/2011 21:42

I wish I had Maud's encyclopaedic music knowledge to find a fitting song for this look.

::swoons::

I've never been through the RH promo pics before. They're quite yummy, aren't they? ::understatement::

Massive, my crush on Guy is borderline out of control at the moment, I really need to get a grip on myself Blush.

Are you sorted for tomorrow, Spiro and Twigs; and how was the rest of SmallBoy2's day?

SupermassiveLBD · 12/09/2011 21:42

There is one pic somewhere that always makes me smile: he's been fighting and he has come a little adrift in that one too.

Welcome to my world, LadyD. Smile

LadyDamerel · 12/09/2011 21:47

By gum, LadyD, you have eyes lke a hawk.

I was watching S2e3 earlier and had to rewind and pause several times to capture this moment during the Robin/Guy fight. Nifty little clip he's got there.

LadyDamerel · 12/09/2011 21:48

Where's Tim Foil when I need him? It was that moment I've just linked to, wasn't it?
