Hello, all! Sorry I am late reporting in, i have been doing thriling things like the supermarket run.

Spiro, do I understand you correctly? Amazing on your stonking great telly? Thudimus maximus, if so. I got shivers and chills just thinking about it. The smouldering, the smirking, the stalking and stomping, the riding and the tossing of raven locks....

And lol at the rugby. Taken by Armitage? Sounds like my kind of sport. I saw that guy mentioned in the sports section of one of the online newspapers, the other day, and had a smile.

I hope Small and Twigs are having a good time in the Great Abroad.

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 15:00

I haven't got a stonking great telly, Massive, but 37" works for me!

Better than a lappy, agreed. So this tivo thingy has internet browsing, does it?

SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 15:19

ROFL @ MN's current ads for Hot Pants, btw.

LadyDamerel · 01/10/2011 15:36

Envy @ Spiro watching YT on a 37" telly. You lucky thing Grin.

We are P-26 minutes. LordD is laying turf Hmm. I am pouring my first G&T.

'Taken by Armitage' was about the only bit of commentary I did hear this morning but I did mutter a quick 'yes please' Grin.

Must go. Will be back for IV Polish Cordial later.......

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 15:49

LOL at 'yes please'! Good Luck Lady D!

I only manage to watch one vid whilst DD was on the phone to nana and dh is working today. Will be saving the rest for Wednesday. Grin

TiVo doesn't have internet browsing as such, but has apps for YouTube, Twitter, eBay, iPlayer and a few other things.

Miss Spiro and I have had a post-birthdays shopping trip. She has come home with a bag full of books and stationery, I have come home with a bag full of anti-ageing potions Confused!

Grin lady D At pre-party G&T!! Definitely a necessity!!Grin.

Spiro - sounds like an eclectic shopping trip there!! And I too Envy at your 37" thigh and eye shots!!!Grin

I'm shattered and kids are painting - really ought to go and supervise! Could really do with an afternoon off from childcare but nevermind!! Smile

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 16:45

More confessions...

I'm particularly liking the Voice and the Guy & Marion one Grin

OP posts:
SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 17:15

I think the Voice bypasses my brain Blush

My sympathies with the party and painting mums. I loathe footie, but it makes a great childminder for the slightly older model.

Lots of it ahead tonight, and basketball when that finishes. That should keep -'em all quiet while I do my thang. Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 17:21

We were supposed to be painting this afternoon but it was 2pm but the time we got back from the shops so we've had a lovely chilled out afternoon writing, internetting & getting to know the new telly!

OP posts:
Russianpony · 01/10/2011 17:31

DS just asked DD what begging was!!Grin thankfully her description was cleaner than my immediate thoughts!!BlushGrin

YY to the voice!! I'm with you massive!!Grin

Hope the party is going well - wonder if ladyd managed to book a children's entertainer?

Your afternoon sounds blissful Spiro!! We've done paddling pool, painting and now they are blowing bubbles in their chocolate milk!! I've obviously been mothering them very hard while popping on here and confessions!Grin

The colonel has been on the big pooter for at least 2 hours! But unfortunately doing financial stuff so I can't claim my time back in lieu!

Oooh just had a thought! I'm looking for pictures of feet for my website - do you think it would be wrong to use that close up of the man's feet?! despite the fact that it would be completely against copyright rules!Grin

SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 17:42

Paddling pool? Oh, yes, I hear it's hotter over there than it is here for once.
Maybe you should email Wellington, RP and ask for an original foot portrait for your website. You can offer him free treatments whenever he's in the UK, as an incentive. although I am guessing you would actually be willing to pay him

Isn't it weird, this begging lark? If anyone else tried it on, i'd be utterly horrified and affronted.

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 17:46

Can you imagine if the PLFW tried it? You'd have to just laugh at him.

OP posts:
LadyDamerel · 01/10/2011 17:53

Massive, if you're not using Gizzy at the mo, can you you mount him on Richie and send him this way please?

Ta muchly.

SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 17:54

Ewww. if I begged him, it would be to please go away Confused

Of course I don't expect anyone has ever wondered what you'd have to say in order for Gizzy to think it was 'good enough' begging. Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 01/10/2011 17:55

Must be nearly done now though Lady D?

Well I have now!

Meant to say earlier that the pic with the voice comment has much the same effect as the voice on me! Keep meaning to download some of those stills and lighten them up a bit in Photoshop...

OP posts:
SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 17:59

at the careful on Richie specification, we don't want to get our wires crossed, do we?

Although if you think about it, it's still quite possible to creatively misunderstand, especially if you remember the circus training. A bit precarious, mind you.

Russianpony · 01/10/2011 18:08

Going that way is it lady d or did the entertainer fail to show?!Wink. How much longer!

Massive is was a massive 28 deg C here today - very bizarre for the 1st oct!!

What a fab idea - however I shall go straight to the man himself directly as he swears he answers most letters and ask for a photo of his feet and I would willingly treat him anytime anyplace anywhere - he just has to beg ask and I'll be there!!Grin

Parenting by strictly come dancin now! Got to love sat eve tv! I used to be addicted but not so much this year.

Russianpony · 01/10/2011 18:11

Argh!! Forget dinner! I just burnt the microwave popcorn!! Oops!!Grin

Tortington · 01/10/2011 18:13

dudettes, did you see lucas in that sky thing? it was a bit like spooks..then something happened and it turned into tits tits tits and lucas was dead and i couldnt watch it anymore

LadyDamerel · 01/10/2011 18:14

Grin Poor Richie.

Must be nearly done now though Lady D?

Ah, no. In a moment of what can only be described as utter lunacy I agreed to a sleepover party that's what happen when you just say 'yes' to stop them talking while you're ogling Gizzy on YT so they are here until 10am tomorrow.

::dives headfirst into gin bottle::

SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 18:16

You mean Strike Back: Project Dawn, Custardo? Great succinct review of yours, there, you should send it on to Sky. That'd tell them.

Russianpony · 01/10/2011 18:22

Lady D that'll learn you!!!Grin how many gins down now?!Wink

Custardo - fab summary but it is the gratuitous naked females which may help my persuasion of the Colonel to watch series one with me!!!Grin.

SupermassiveLBD · 01/10/2011 18:24

There are gratuitous naked males in series one, but you miss 'em if you blink
