Thanks Marilyn ( up for a wee while and checking on CFN and Kyle)

Has anybody suggested "Laughing Gnome" for the coach trip playlist?

wilton · 10/08/2017 10:15

Can I suggest 'can you dig it' by the mock turtles. On a selfish note I'm glad things have slowed down. I've inflicted a repetitive strain injury scrolling through these threads!

rightwhine · 10/08/2017 10:39

Where is she?

alibongo5 · 10/08/2017 10:54

@jux

Still catching up with this thread but just had to say - me too re Davy Jones. AND when I was 18 he was ACTUALLY SITTING ON THE NEXT TABLE TO ME IN THE PUB!!!!

Mip I have researched quite widely but must admit for reading for enjoyment I commit the MN cardinal sin and quite enjoy Philipa Gregory. I also love Sharon Penman. Wildflower I'm a Jacquetta fan my kitten is called Jacquetta much to dhs amusment (although her kitty cousin is Badger named by dd1 and MN). Yes I am also quite interested (or in awe of Philipa Langley) I am a huge believer in Richard iii being hugely wronged Grin

MarilynWhirlwindRocks · 10/08/2017 11:21

MNers are a varied bunch, as reflected by their musical tastes:

From batshit crazy Novelty record (1967) Shock...to '90s Indie, "Madchester" era.
**
"The Laughing Gnome", David Bowie...[Because...um...nope, no idea either].
(But full marks, Gramgram, for relevant title connection to ornaments scaring CFNs/CFBs out of Watty's garden...see Trello pics)

(Lyrics on screen...will anyone dare?). ************

"Can You Dig It?", The Mock Turtles...[because "Dig" = what CFBs do. Plus a chance to note Alan Partridge's Steve Coogan's brother was lead singer]. wilton Wink

No screen lyrics available, but written ones here
**

Liking thenaughtyone's choice of Coach Trip babywear...

Coach Trip Singalong Playlist

Firemaiden posted "It's over, isn't it?" Sad

So for her, and in memory of this thread's unique spirit:

"The Way We Were", Barbra Streisand

(lyrics on screen...ensure your mascara's waterproof).

[But I'm definitely still up for Coach Trip madness and a right old laugh Smile...so when do we set sail?].

readyforno2 · 10/08/2017 15:29

Have the CFN kidnapped the op?

Jaxhog · 10/08/2017 15:50

Is there a new thread, or has everything just gone very quiet?

Redpony1 · 10/08/2017 16:09

I've just done a big catch up on the previous few threads!

StormTreader · 10/08/2017 16:29

Its gone so quiet!

mermaidsandunicorns · 10/08/2017 16:47

Plot twist

Ken turned out to be an evil CFN spy ala prince Hans and has kidnapped OP. CFN's have now taken over her flat also

FredAstairesUnderwear · 10/08/2017 16:51

I'm trying to get out of working out at the gym, popped back on here to see if there were any juicy updates and felt rather disappointed! Sad over-invested!

MipMipMip · 10/08/2017 17:01

Ooh didn't know liking Phillipa Gregory was bad, I'll go chuck out all the books I have of here's. Can they go to charity shops or would that be considered corrupting innocent minds RiversRun?

soupforbrains · 10/08/2017 17:50

What's going on?? Have the CFNs kidnapped all of the Wotsits?? Where are they?

ToniWol · 10/08/2017 20:11

Is it possible that Watty's solicitor has advised her to stop posting? It would explain the sudden dearth of updates.

GladAllOver · 10/08/2017 21:22

Perhaps the house has collapsed ? Shock

itsbeenaverylongweek · 10/08/2017 21:36

ToniWol if that was the case surely she could come on to say she'd been advised to make no further posts? She's probably catching up on all the things she could/should have been doing over the last week or so when not posting on here and stressing about the situation

Gran22 · 10/08/2017 22:31

I think everyone who's followed this from its inception would love an update! Will CFN ever return? Will Watt ever post again? Or will the interest just dwindle and the outcome never known?

Jux · 10/08/2017 22:32

mermaids, and the CFNs have knocked through into Watty's flat - look at that massive kitchen! They have gone out for more green paint.

alibongo I saved the David Cassidy show. It only went ahead because of me! (But you beat me with Davy Jones who was always better than DC who was really only ever a pretty face!)

laura1206 · 10/08/2017 22:40

Where's OP? Hope all ok!

smilingontheinside · 11/08/2017 01:11

???????

Mummyoflittledragon · 11/08/2017 01:20

Wattyyyy

If you are still reading this, we understand you may have been told not to talk to us anymore. But please, give us an update when this is all sorted and your garden is back to the way it was.

HSMMaCM · 11/08/2017 05:58

Watty has drunk so much sangria she's forgotten she was ever on MN.

I suppose there's nothing to update unless CFNs return, or builders from the council.
