We will have to have a specialist masterclass in Jigsaw completion. Seriously, I managed to get 4 pieces in the correct place.

Am jigsaw idiot.

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 22:52

I was never any good with jigsaws as a kid, mind you. Not enough patience.

LadyDamerel · 23/11/2011 22:54

Save yourself the stress and steer clear then, Massive. I prefer Sexy Cupid all in one piece anyway.

DumSpiroSpero · 23/11/2011 23:01

Bed for me now sweet dReAms girls!

::Staggers back in::

In no particular order. The Girl does jigsaws with her granny - I wonder if they'd like to work on one of those?

The James Purefoy connection was that he was in the 2003 Mayor of Casterbridge with Jodhi May and others. I recalled that he had also been in another cravatathon (Mansfield Park) and hence the link to that vid which I find very funny.

::will go anywhere for a cravat emoticon::

The relationship between Inspector Mason and Mr Thornton is a bit deeper and more complicated than that, because it was Mr Thornton who got him his job in the police. Hence he is indebted to Mr Thornton and easily persuaded to pervert the course of justice follow natural justice by discontinuing the investigation.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 23/11/2011 23:06

Ha! When you said Cupid I thought you meant this!

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 23:14

Maud, I have absolutely no objections to that version - longbow, Saracen bow, or even crossbow, our Sexy Cupid is a sight for sore eyes.

LadyDamerel · 23/11/2011 23:15

James Purefoy also played that epitome of cravatage - Mr Beau Brummell himself.

LadyDamerel · 23/11/2011 23:17

Oh yes. I'm quite glad Gizzy doesn't do the teeny tongue poke-out when he's concentrating though - would rather spoil his image, I feel.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 23/11/2011 23:19

Indeed, LadyD. I had not known that until I saw that bonkers vid magnificent piece of cinema.

LadyDamerel · 23/11/2011 23:23

I'd like to see it, Maud. That's 'my' era and Beau Brummell features in quite a lot of GH's regency novels.

I must go to bed, more inspectors will be waiting in the morning...

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 23:24

Gizzy does the teeny tongue poke-out at other times though. To considerable effect.

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 23:26

I didnt know they'd done a BB film, either. Knighty knight, LadyD. Time I was making a move, too.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 23/11/2011 23:27

::Dare not ask in what circumstances Massive has seen Gizzy sticking out his tongue::

I must got to my bed too. Good night ladies!

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 23:31

Lurking behind pillars, mainly, and once on horseback, Maudie.

Bitey knight.

SupermassiveLBD · 23/11/2011 23:36

Exhibit A

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 23/11/2011 23:41

::Looks back::

Presumably he's blowing a raspberry at the Petulant Little One?

Good night again.

::Wanders off in search of the TSFWNS, which hasn't been seen for a while::

DumSpiroSpero · 24/11/2011 06:56

Oh my word! Come to check in at this time of the morning and get Gizzy poking his tongue out at me.

TransylvanianVampiress · 24/11/2011 08:23

Ok ok I get it. gizzy is rather ahem arresting isn't he? Pass me an IF while you're in there LadyD. Grin

TheSmallPrint · 24/11/2011 09:58

Morning, I am slightly concerned by you all and your apparent jigsaw blindness. Maybe try the lovely beardy scarf one which only has 42 pieces and is very easy.

I love the little pokey out tongue photo at Gizzy school, it's very appealing to me.

SupermassiveLBD · 24/11/2011 10:00

Take your pick, ladiez.

I do love it when he does that.

SupermassiveLBD · 24/11/2011 10:02

I x-posted, Small Grin

TheSmallPrint · 24/11/2011 10:16

ooh Massive has restocked! Grin
