Some of us are sat in the communal tavern bed eating cake and being drunk. Some of us are on a forrinholiday having a very successfull and enjoyable time.

Some of us would like this

MLG Grin Grin

Its okay - I respect the fact that not everyone can admit to appreciating the Capaldiness as much as I do Grin

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 16/07/2015 14:27

Can I just say I have read none of those books but agree Santi would be OMC perfect for all those roles.

Hell yes.

You're welcome.

morelikeguidelines · 16/07/2015 14:28

Livia I want to like him because he is part Italian like me but although I think he does a great job of playing the cardinal and makes the character really complex and almost cool, I don't actually fancy him.

(disclaimer - I obviously don't think everyone who is Italian is automatically great, as there are some massive exceptions both in history and present day!)

morelikeguidelines · 16/07/2015 14:34

Interesting, enormous, thanks. Smile

MiladyBeaWinter · 16/07/2015 14:49

Oh, he (JC) sounds a bit self absorbed. Do you think he's republican because his parents told him to be too? Hmm.

Santi does tortured love very well. But I hope he isn't doing that in S3. All yearning for Queenie at a distance. We want fallen monk please, all cheeky and happy again. And lots of masterfulness from the new Captain.

MiladyBeaWinter · 16/07/2015 14:52

Oh and while we are at it. More swaggering (natch) and give Porthos a love interest. Might cheer him up a bit Dog is coming along VERY nicely.

Bloody hell, I am sooooooo excited for S3.

MiladyBeaWinter · 16/07/2015 14:54

I do love a thunderstorm WW is it one of those go and stand outside and get drenched type ones? Hope you are feeling a bit better #wenchflu

Hi Wenches

Have finally caught up with the thread - minimal amounts retained Grin

Fav books -

  1. P&P, it is like a blanket of calm when life is a shitstorm, I adore it.
  2. Discworld, don't ask me to narrow it further than that!
  3. Lymond Chronicles by Dorothy Dunnet. The main character is the heir to a Scottish Baronetcy, it starts in the mid 1500's. The historical detail is fantastic and the protagonist is utterly swoon-inducing. TB would be absolutely perfect for the role. Infact he is who I shall picture the next time I re-read one of them!

Leaver's show at DS2's preschool this morning. Bless them it was so cute and hilarious Grin

On that subject comtess I totally feel your pain. It is fucking ridiculous, show for this, presentation for that. Meetings about leaving, meetings about starting. Extra trips, events, a list of items required at various points over the last month that is as long as my arm. DS1 had a day off yesterday, poor chap is knackered. He was pale as a ghost at 8am yesterday and just said 'mummy please can I go back to bed', so I let him.
The teachers all look exhausted too - it isn't that I don't appreciate the effort they are putting in, because I do - I just genuinely don't understand why they can't do some of this stuff earlier in the year rather than cramming it all into the last month of the summer term.
Rant over.

MiladyBeaWinter · 16/07/2015 14:57

Oh and while I'm on catch up I'm going for the grey shirt. Proper grey, not just grubby, like they had when they dressed up as Spanish soldiers.

Though my favourite is obvs Athos Pinon shirt. After he was captured Grin

morelikeguidelines · 16/07/2015 14:59

I prefer grey shirt athos.

Though of course top preference is no shirt aramis.

Alibabsandthe40Musketeers · 16/07/2015 15:01

I prefer Athos in leather.

Grin
LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 16/07/2015 15:08

That's okay MLG - the rules of Team Cardinal are that everyone must fancy him as much as we do, whilst never even considering fancying him!

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 16/07/2015 15:09

Yep MrsB, and I run around unplugging stuff Confused

Feel like shit, coughing my lungs out. I'm actually still on vacation but have called in sick cause I don't want to waste my vacation days.

AnneOfAramis · 16/07/2015 15:21

Sparks - all you need to know is that if Santi gets cast as Edmond Dantes that Team Aramis will NEED to descend on the UK cinema with the largest screen and clean knickers. If you think torturedloveAramis was hot. If you think that torturedloveVronsky was hot - WAIT UNTIL YOU MEET DANTES.

Morelikehave you seen Santi as Vronsky???? If you have not, you NEED to do so immediately. bring clean knickers and a box of tissues

AnneOfAramis · 16/07/2015 15:23

And if JessP produces it for the BBC we absolutely need to be at the screening.

FancyFancy · 16/07/2015 15:32

Grin morelike. I re-read it recently and suddenly got the idea that maybe Heathcliff didn't die because his revenge had failed, but because when he saw young Cathy 'raising' Hareton up she was doing what his Cathy had not been prepared to do for him.

I'm another lover of Hitchhikers and like mrsb I have to finish any book I start

And more agreement with mrsb on s3 Santi - fallen monk? yes please. Lots of falling. Falling in filth. Also yy to masterfulness, but from THE Captain please Wink

anne i love your idea of TM actors (esp Santi) cast as literary heroes, esp if said programmes/films were made by wenchy producers Grin

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 16/07/2015 15:32

The travelling itch is starting up again Confused

FancyFancy · 16/07/2015 15:53

I hope you're not going to blame that on madame too ww? Wink

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 16/07/2015 15:59

YES

Santi to be cast as whoever, JP to produce, us in front row & on red carpet air kissing like our lives depend on it.

I'm having that daydream with my cup of tea. Something's got to get me through this week.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 16/07/2015 16:00

That's cronic Fancy Grin

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 16/07/2015 16:01

Or is it called travel bug?

FancyFancy · 16/07/2015 16:20
Grin

A tough week sparks? You'll be needing this then.

I'm so helpful.
