i know its mad isnt it,!! thats what i thought, coz i was thinking of going with inspired, bizzy and anther one, when i got a no, i then got the letter from kidz and went with them... altho it does not matter now, as i am happy with kids so far,, just found it rather mad!!

2ManyPimms · 27/04/2006 08:43

Mimi - that's odd! I'll second the thought that they may have had a requirement change.

Anyone know how Misdee is doing? She was on for a bit but I lost track coz of the holidays.

Castings anyone? Photos in magazines or catalogues?

Can I get anyone a virtual tea or coffee? Wine? Oops...too early!!! :o

I'll try to explain my rather confusing filming/holiday dilema at another time. Was fuming at DH for putting a spanner in the works! Didn't hear back from the production team yesterday so I think they'll have to use me for another series. By that time, I'll probably be out at work and DH will be home. Nuts. :(

2ManyPimms · 27/04/2006 12:22

Floored!!! DS didn't get the Monsoon job but he did get the Big Brother "Rock Star" TV ident. Gobsmacked! That was the one that I thought he had very little chance with. Just goes to show!

Things also worked out for me and the programme - doing the third filming of Perfect Housewife!

When it rains, it pours!!! :)

I think I need to have a wee little Pimms just about now to steady my nerves!

mykidsmum · 27/04/2006 12:38

oh how exciting toomanypimms, tell me more, whats the big brother thingy? So you are going to be on desperate houswives with old anthea, I think thats what you are saying but to be honest I can't quite make it all out Grin

Abigail has been short listed for boden, not sure her spots will be cleared though!

izzyrubi · 27/04/2006 13:35

mykidsmum >> how are you? and the kids?

2ManyPimms >> WOW the Big Brother thing sounds great! Sorry to hear about the Monsoon job but there will be plenty of opportunity!

Going to Boden casting tomorrow if anyone else is coming please let me know and we can meet Smile also going to my P&B shooting, the last one before baby is born yay! And believe it or not both shooting and casting are in the same street, amazing!!!Grin

2ManyPimms · 27/04/2006 13:57

Sorry, I can be a bit incoherent when my brain is going in a million directions!

Yup - Anthea is going to attempt to turn this American, self-confessed clutterbug into a version of a Stepford wife.

I say to her....good bleeping luck!!! :D

2ManyPimms · 27/04/2006 14:10

I wish I knew exactly what they were doing for the BB "ident". All that I know is that I need to provide an enormous number of measurements for a suit a tailor is making for DS. (Measurements that I never knew existed! At least they didn't want to know if DS "dressed right" or "dressed left" - too little for that, I suppose!).

Here I am, all excited and I'll probably tell DS and he'll be like, "yeah, so?". Kids.

izzyrubi · 27/04/2006 18:44

2ManyPimms >> Keep us posted on that job, do you already know when they will shoot?

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 18:47

Hi guys! El has a casting for legal and general tomorrow afternoon. Not sure if he'll want to go, I haven't seen him today bless him!

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 18:49

with the bb indent i wonder if it's for every time bb comes on, i remember the one from celeb' bb there was a band playing, it's a bit like an advert except it's only ever on just before bb comes on and it's not advertising any thing, that would be great if it was that, imagine how many people would see him.

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 18:54

2manypimms where did you find out about that one? you are brave, i would love to do something like that but i haven't got the confidence i don't think. i'd love to do the apprentice or how to be a property developer.

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 18:56

ali sorry i mean't to say good luck for casting tomorrow,have you got to travel far? just tell him what he could buy with his money that might make him keen Wink

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 18:58

thanks perf. tell more about BB job. Casting is at Holborn studios

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 19:01

ali, bb indent was 2manypimms. we have been to the holbern studio's a couple of times now,easy to find.

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 19:03

sorry pet. I can't keep up with who's doing what lol! I can't really be arsed to go. It's a bit of a trek with a 1yr old during rush hour traffic, he's got a football match after school anyway, and he prob won't be picked. Think we'll say no

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 19:09

no what you mean ali, i'm getting a bit peed off with casting after casting only to be told no, i wouldn't mind but some of the castings we have been to are just a complete waste of time they don't even seem to assess the kids or take a decent photo at most of them,i just sometimes come away and think how the hell did they just assess the kids ability, i really do think it is like a lottery based on luck. where have all the jobs without casting gone!!!!!

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 19:15

i know! it's not cheap for us to get to London, think we'll leave this one (and Chappers and Dave from Radio 1 are at my local chavvy nightclub so I want to go and have a look) sad cow ain't I!

perfumelady · 27/04/2006 19:20

have you bought a family rail card? that is now saving me a fortune, although you can still kiss good by to £50 once we've paid for taxi's and lunch. your not a sad cow, i'd say a very sad cow Grin not really go out and enjoy your self, why not.

cyan · 27/04/2006 20:14

hi all! ds did the motehrcare shoot today, and my was the location fab!!! it was in a lovely house in west hampstead. he had 2 outfit changes, and they said he will be in the autumn/winter catalogue.

am tired.

allie its a shame that you arent going to holborn studios tomorrow cos im up that way. its a really nice place, its where norrie carr are. nevermind!

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 20:18

hello chick. I hang my head in shame. I WILL post your parcel tomorrow. Wrapped it a work last night (you will need a stanley knife to get into it!) stuck a big label on the front, ready to write you address on and post this morn. Got to town this morning and realised no address on it! Will post it 1st thing x glad today was good. when can we see charlie babes x

cyan · 27/04/2006 20:26

they told me the end of july the catalogue should be out. im not 100% sure if his pics will be used, bcos yackerty mentioned that when her lo did mothercare, he was competing with other babies, and that was after the casting. but there was only charlie there today, and that was for an hour and a half. so i am thinking they are more than likely to use him, otherwise what a complete waste of time and money on their behalf! i suppose i wont know until it comes out and then ill get excited! there was a little girl before us, and another one after us. they were shooring for the rest of today and then thats it.

dont worry about the parcel! just a shame you arent going tomorrow, i could have got it off you!

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 20:29

sorry mate. it weighs a ton, sylvia is the stroppiest bird in the world at the mo. Couldn't handle it!

cyan · 27/04/2006 20:31

oh charlie has hit the naughty stage me thinks!!! have you still got sylvia with AK? how are the kids are they ok? x

AllieBongo · 27/04/2006 20:33

yeah, they're great thanks. I had to buy her some reins today. She woun't stay in her push chair. Talking lots too bless her. Had a call from AK asking her height the other day, but that's it. tbh i think it's too much to take her all the way to London. She would be a nightmare.. How are you love? where 7's these days

cyan · 27/04/2006 20:36

im ok just very tired. was in kilburn after the shoot, and have not long got in! i personally wouldnt take charlie if we lived any further than we do. today we had the luxury of a 20 minute drive door to door. the lady after us came from kent, and i just could not be arsed taking the little man that distance. he gets ratty sitting in his seat too long. but each to their own!
