CFN thread #10 (grand)

[WhatIsThisWatt]

Thanks for title!

I'm trying to post this really quickly so that I can link on #9 so I'll be back soon.

@SchadenfreudePersonified And @Vango - I think I might have a bit of a crush on you now!


knew it! Madja's been to the airport today and is now trying to throw you off the scent Schadenfreude!

I think you may be right Vango - I apologise unreservedly.

(Though it is interesting that you don't deny the mack tied with string, the pigeon-topped flat cap, and the thick glasses . . . don't tell me that Vanka has two paramours out there .. .

A new twist to the plot...(hoping gif will attach)

Jedi - you are close, but although it sounds like a lady name (as you say - Ivanka Trump) - Vanka is actually a male name (Chekov wrote a short story with this title) - I think it is a diminutive of Ivan.

I think I can safely say I must be preoccupied with this thread..

Watching Game Of Thrones S7 Ep3 when suddenly I see something interesting.

Lo, t'is CFN's missing window!

Woah! 10!!!

@Schadenfreude @Vango
I'm admitting to nothing ( but I deny the pigeon vehemently) I rather like my Mac with unique rope detailing.

Right I've been out all day and finally caught up.

Glorious update!

What a day for karma for CFNs.

@C8 At least one of the CFBs will have to be He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.....and possibly Matt 'Tiger' Crawford is Chief Evil Property Developer (this will mean nothing to non-Archers fans, sorry)

@Jux I am much further out than I thought, flag-wise. Not yet drowning, however. Still waving As long as people remember to tell me where the flags/arms are from, that is.

If you have style, you have style - nothing will hide that certain je ne sais quoi.

I have it myself - it is a curse as much as a blessing . . .

Housemum , the NHS is strapped for cash, you surely can't expect them to put a back wall on every hospital can you? :-D

Now you need to get your DD to recreate the saga in Lego form!

SteamTrainsRealAleandOpenFires fortunately this is one thing phoenixing can't wriggle out of. The flat is an asset and whoever owns it could be expected to sell in order to repay any works done. I'd expect it to have enough equity since mortgages nowadays usually need a decent deposit.

Umbrellas,

"Bill Nighy. sighs in awe"

Agree!

[Credit should go to notreallythere for mentioning him first on here, though...
I think his chiselled loveliness sprang instantly to a lot of our minds as dream casting for the role. Perfection].

Thanks, Madja.

Schaden,
Our new catchphrase in this household is now
"Ay up, Vanka lad Eee, Ah'm a martyr to me tubes."
Outstanding work.

Nocoolnamesleft Never thought of that! To be fair it's difficult to think of these things when there's a million excited children singing loudly ( as was I!) Well done you!

In years to come, will we all start threads with 'I'm a long time lurker, CFN listing building patio doors etc.' in the way people quote Cancel the Cheque now?

CFN listing building

Gosh it really was a supporting wall?

Best. Thread. Ever.

Sangria recipe has been screenshotted I've had wine

Get well soon, faithinthesound...you deserve to share in the victory celebrations, after all your hard work on the Trello

Cedilla,

"...and possibly Matt 'Tiger' Crawford is Chief Evil Property Developer"

God, you've totally nailed it.

Wow, just back from holiday, surrounded by cases and I had to check to see if there's been an update .....

@schadenfreude
precisely.
Fab accent you wrote there btw, I just read it out loud to my hubby and it was perfect!
Not that any of it relates to me at all you understand. I haven't been near the airport. Nope.

Awesome

I haven't been near the airport

Course not . . . .

I've succumbed to GTB.

Me, her and spangran are sat in the pub, GTB invited Ken whilst en route. He said he may join us.

We are going to look like a very odd 80s pop band.

If anyone sees an old Spanish lady, gorgeous blonde woman, older Asian shopkeeper and me in a pub near you, please come say hi

Hi Watty. Well done on everything especially the fantastic Sangria recipe. I've screen shot/saved it for making tomorrow as haven't got all the ingredients in.
Here's the flag from God's own country, County Cork.

And please MNHQ, please, please can we have a special Vlad & Vanka thread blog.
