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

I did actually know, Maud!

sometimes being a reformed Trekkie has its plus side

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 18:18

I bet he is not unwashed, he's too vain for that. Not if Tansy has anything to do about it, anyway

And he's always changing his Ye Gappe black tee-shrts, nicht wahr?

PassTheSpookyTwiglets · 19/09/2011 18:21

ROFL, I missed the crossed out stompy before Boots - nice one :)

Thanks for the explanation of shipping.

Maud, I can see I'm going to have to rewatch RH without the offspring. I have missed nearly all these bits that have been mentioned recently!

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 18:27

Oh, you absolutely have to, Twigs. He is utterly dReAmy

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 18:29

Yes, I could see that you knew, Massive. That's the difference between us, you have genuine knowledge whereas I am a fraud. And yes, I should probably expand on my comments about Guy's personal cleanliness. I dare say that he is very clean by the standards of the time and maybe has a bath as often as twice a year (in contrast to the sheriff who we know brings his annual bath forward by six months) but nonetheless he frequently looks rather grimy.

The funny thing, Twiggy, is that The Girl puts these dvds on ad nauseam and I pay little attention to them, but then I hear bits and think "Oh Massive must have been rendered unconscious when she heard that".

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 18:30

POI for the non-linguists among our dear lurkers; that is not French for 'manky'

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 18:36

Mais non, Massive. Manky refers, I think, to the state of that hideous scarf which is always around Guy's neck as you would hope to be in S1.

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 18:38

Maud, shall I let you into a secret? I have a PhD in Flannel. I am the inspiration behind all those 'How to bluff your way through...' books, and a founder member of the University of Google, Faculty of Wikipedia

"Oh Massive must have been rendered unconscious when she heard that

Curses! Busted! Blush

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 18:41

You can always tell me your secrets, Massive. I am very discreet and, besides, it's just you and me and 20,000 lurkers here.

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 18:43

It was nice to see Fettle, wasn't it?

PassTheSpookyTwiglets · 19/09/2011 18:45

I noticed all the obvious visual bits but MissTwigs seems completely unable to follow the plot so I spent most of the time explaining it to her and missing much of the dialogue.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 18:46

Yes, it was lovely. I hope we haven't scared her away again.

::leaves out a nice tray of homemade cake, to tempt Fettle back::

New video here Just a short one, shows the resemblance between The Man and Daniel RAdcliffe.

Right, off for dinner and then my date with Mr Tennant.

Fettle · 19/09/2011 19:04

Anyone got some Polish Cordial??!!!

I'M BACKKKKKK!!!!!!
Grin

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 19:06

Here you go Fettle Wine Make yourself at home.

SupermassiveLBD · 19/09/2011 19:09

Dang it, I have to and deal with some RL myself, but in the meantime, here is in honour of Fettle's return

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 19:12

Oh, Fettle. It's so good to have you back. Sit down on the chaise longoo, drink your Wine and eat your cake and tell us as much as you wish about your RL adventures. How is the Colonel?

Enjoy your date, Twiggy. That little vid is interesting, but Mr Radcliffe is so young that I think any comparison is meaningless even though it always lifts my heart to see a man in a cravat.

Fettle · 19/09/2011 19:13

Thanking you kindly!!!! Don't mind if I do!!Grin

Sooooo - what have a missed?! Neeeeeeeeeeeddddddd some good photos to get me going???????

Can't believe he's not around on TV anymore at the moment!!! I really don't feel his Goblin outfit is going to be his best!!! have we seen any photos of what he looks like as a goblin???

Can't remember the last time I posted, but not for months I don't think (maybe even 2 house moves???!) Been a stressful old year so far that I won't bore you with, so I need some me time!! Although I've got a DH who actually lives at home full-time at the moment though - so how I'm going to creep back in here I've no idea!!! Thank goodness that new App has appeared while I've been AWOL!!!! GrinGrin

WineWine cheers!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 19:16

This is what we have to look forward to, Fettle.

Would you like a personal screening of some of our favourite movies?

TheSmallPrint · 19/09/2011 20:10

Hello Fettle nice to see you. Thorin's not quite Lucas is he? I am watching VOD tonight just to get a fix.

Fettle · 19/09/2011 20:18

Most certainly isn't Lucas!!! Shock. What have they done to him???!!!!!

So who's still here from the old crowd?? My memory is rubbish but who was writing the book? Has it been published yet???!! GrinGrin

Oh how I've missed him!!! Personal viewings would be ace to catch up on tomorrow while the Colonel is hopefully back at work - had an almost unheard of sick day today!! Smile. Needs to get back to saving the world from big bad men a la Lucas/Porter!!! And leave me in peace to idolise them!! GrinGrinGrin

Smile
ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/09/2011 20:23

The old crowd are all here, Fettle, although I think we've all name-changed since the Academy opened, and we lured inLadyDamerel, who was a mild-mannered Georgette Heyer fan until she succumbed to the charms of the audio books (do you know about the audio books?) Spiro has published quite a lot of saucy moving literature on Wattpad.

Lucas is glad you're back

TheSmallPrint · 19/09/2011 20:28

Ooh I forgot how much of the sexy deep voice Harry does

DumSpiroSpero · 19/09/2011 20:54

Fettle - fab to see you! I was only thinking about you the other day and hoping all was well with you and the Colonel. It must be nice for you to have him home even if it does limit your browsing time!!!

Mr S is out for the evening for the first time in weeks. I have Polish cordial (pre) birthday cake and Season 2 Ep 1 Gizzy on the go Grin.

We have just had 'BEG'!!!
