Well, it's about time.

Now all we need are furnishings and decorations...Wink

Just checking out some new vids, when it occurred to me that which we had a week or so ago, is very thudworthy, but rather inappropriate on the soundtrack front!

ROFL. Spiro. He would certainly not be too receptive, with that particular soundtrack banging away in the background.

The poor lamb. Grin

Massive -

Bear with it for the first minute or so as most of the Gizzy is after that Smile.

It is funny rather than wibblesome, although it has its moments!

Hmm I see what you are saying about the track! I wonder if the maker knew the connection?

Twigs very envious of your weekend - enjoy the peace and quiet! although we were supposed to be having this weekend childfree but it was to go and see MIL - we are going out this evening for The Colonel's work do! I was so looking forward to meeting a real live Marine this evening who the Colonel says I would find attractive!! but he's not coming apparently [boo-hoo]Grin

Right - childfree time over - off to get the vampboy - what delights can fill our afternoon I wonder!!Smile

ps I thought Michael Sheen was on my LoL, but I'd got him confused with Rob Lowe!

TransylvanianVampiress · 25/11/2011 11:55

I saw that vid Spiro a few days - tis very funny!Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 11:58

Just googled MS and look what I found - looks a bit familiar!

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 12:03

Grin Especially at those early shots with the bow and arrow...

Oh, and a nice Sexy Cupid sequence, with a peek at the snake hips.

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 12:05

Same photographer, I wonder? or just one they learn at Pap School?

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 12:06

Probably learnt at Pap school I suspect.

Have found another one but I'm going to save it for later as I really need to do some writing.

Oh Vampy, I used to HEART Rob Lowe back in the day. I still carry a torch for Sodapop Curtis

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 12:25

No, but yes, but no..

Anyone for a Lucas-fest?

Be sure to take your Dramamine first, though. Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 13:30

Ben Whishaw is just fabulous - did you not see 'The Hour'?

OP posts:
SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 13:39

Hmm, Vamps, not for me, I have to say.

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 13:47

I am very much afraid I have a gurt big problem, actually.

i seem incapable of seeing anyone else. Rather pathetic.

I suppose the fact that I do see Lucas, the Johns etc etc etc. is something, at least Blush

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 13:52

I don't necessarily mean in that respect, Massive (tend to have the same problem as you there Blush), but he is a fantastic actor.

OP posts:
SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 13:56

It's kind of humiliating in a way to be a prey to such an obsession.

Trouble is, it feels so good Blush

TransylvanianVampiress · 25/11/2011 14:09

Oh no - me too girls. Only the one man for me not including the colonel obviously! but a little bit of window shopping on the side is ok I think!Wink

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 15:23

Oh dear. I have a very, very sad and disappointed Miss Spiro.

She out herself forward for the part of Mary in the school nativity, and got Narrator number 7.Sad

OP posts:
PassTheTwiglets · 25/11/2011 16:11

Poor MissS :( Can you explain to her that Mary is usually picked because she doesn't have much to say, but narrators have got to be really good at talking and remembering what to say etc.?

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 16:30

Brilliant idea, there, Twigs. All the better, because it's so obviously true! If not universally applicable

SupermassiveLBD · 25/11/2011 16:32

Mind you, ALL the very best people do voice-overs Wink

DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 16:33

Tried every connotation of that one possible Twigs. She's sobbed/moaned to me, daddy & nana, had a milkshake & is now engrossed in Bin Weevils thank goodness.

She's mostly put out because the girl that got the part has been Mary before apparently. I do feel a bit sorry for her, but it's the downside of being a bit of a boffin I suppose - I always got the boring responsible parts in school plays too Confused.

I think the fairies might had to make an appearance tonight...

OP posts:
DumSpiroSpero · 25/11/2011 16:35

Massive you have just made me Grin. Am not sure I'd get away with telling her that with DH earwigging though!

OP posts:
PassTheTwiglets · 25/11/2011 17:27

Well that's definitely not fair if the girl has been Mary before! I hate unfairness at school - I know there is a lesson for them in there but you just want to make everything right for them :(

Speaking of fairies, MissT has been writing letters to the fairies and leaving them outside overnight and in the morning 'a fairy' has written back to her on the letter in the, if I say so myself, most fabulous, tiny, curly handwriting :)
