To send this letter to Kevin McCloud?

[ilovemyteddies]

Dear Kevin,

Well, I've just finished watching your programmes about making and living in a shed, and I must admit I did "shed" a tear or two at the end of the series. I must admit at not seeing your lovely, craggy, face every Sunday.

You're tall, intelligent, and have attractive, yet not too male bimboish features. Even your wrinkles are lovely.

I was disappointed that you didn't get your shirt off for the hot tub scene, but then again, it's nice that you're not slaggy about showing off your torso to all and sundry.

I was a bit miffed at seeing the old women sort of touching you when they were measuring up a sustainable alpaca gown for you, but babe, I know where they're coming from.

I have a dressing gown. You have a dressing gown. Not being funny or anything, but on the Internet and in my living room, I'm kind of a big deal, yeah?

So you and me, yeah. You like architecture, I have a house or two. Maybe you could have some "Grand Designs" on me? I know we'll have some tough times babe. But what about it?

Kevin, I love you.

My dressing gown is bigger than your dressing gown. And it has a hood, so there.

You can keep the bloke though, whoever he is.

YANBU. Offer to christen shed and see how that goes down

I love it when he speaks French.

The friend? The readheaded one? GOD yes, thought it was just me.

Yes! The red headed one.

I've got a bit of a thing for him

I am going to submerge myself with a snorkel in his hot tub and give him a bit of surprise next time he takes a dip.

[hardly stalkery at all emoticon]

Since you said "red headed one" I had to do a quick Google. Nah, you can still keep him. Apparently is married as well. Life's a bitch.

I would.
Both of them.

Also really liked the shed programme and surprised some of you didn't, what didn't you like about it?

Shed programme was very much like thinks James May has done, messing about making things. A bit pointless and indulgent, though harmless and fun in its way.

Grand designs though, relies on Kev's knowledge and it's much better structured. Of course he has an opinion, which makes it more interesting but I don't know how anyone can describe him as an arse. He can be quite sympathetic (did anyone see he programme where he young husband died suddenly? That took measured sensitivity to another level). His opinions and enthusiasm are what makes it interesting and watchable.

I'm sure he's married.

There was a thread on here years ago where a MN'er said he often did the school run and that their kids were at the same school.

For those of you mourning the loss of Mr McC from our Sunday night tellybox set your foof muzzle for 8pm Channel 4 next Sunday. Guy Martin is going to be making stuff. He might be a bit thick, no, scratch that, he is thick as mince but he's good at fixing stuff.

Nah, it's Kev's cerebral qualities, combined with enthusiasm, that do it for me!

hahaha that is an awesome letter and you would be doing yourself a huge disservice if you don't send it!

The letter is excellent but the name "ilovemyteddies" isn't quite alluring enough.

Try signing it "HufHouseHoney" or something along those lines.

Kevin Mcloud of the Clan Mcloud?

PMSL! I too lurve Kev and his ginger friend. Not sure I could live up to Kev's high ideals though... I think he might get a bit weave your own lentil yoghurty at times.

Yanbu, love the letter. I do like Kevin, but I'd rather shag George Clarke!

Ohhh yes please, George Clarke is very dishy and doesn't have a wobbly head AND has the most lovely, lovely accent.
