Welcome to all the newcomers Grin

Nickel45 · 28/11/2014 20:53

Welcome gymk, six weeks in and it's a very busy newbie week ... Lovely :)

That's for the bluestone tip apsara might gonna need to check that out (could be my first stint of Christmas shopping - pressie to myself).

icemist · 28/11/2014 20:54

Crikey! Welcome to all newbies

Glad you could join us.

We'll be on part VI in no time. Poor BA will have loads to read. Unless he's secretly reading 'waves' hello Ben Wine? beer?

What a thought icemist, if Ben is reading this I'm really hoping he is enjoying it. Mind you, how could he not, with the thought of being cast in SPOs zombie fest, all us ladies tracking down stag pants (I'm assuming SPO hasn't been tempted yet!Wink) and the next set of pics from cherin. What is there not to love about us?!

cherin · 28/11/2014 21:09

Maybe we're mixing up fiction with facts...he's only 29 and surely has a Life!
But never despair
Maybe even his life has boring spells and we keep him entertained.
(Dear Ben, we're really happy if we entertain you. Also others of the OG crew, let's be correct. But if you want any particular type of entertainment, I think you just need to ask)

icemist · 28/11/2014 21:10

exactly Nickel

But maybe, cherin, he's stuck in a boring hotel in Canada and was just messing around on google ... And found us ... (I mean, who doesn't type their name into google?!) ... And actually he is just as addicted to this thread as us (but is still just lurking, probably very sensibly).

Thinking about it, maybe if you are famous, you dont type your name into google .... How would I know?!?!

Hee hee!!

Richtea19 · 28/11/2014 21:28

Maybe BA is following us, while sitting in a lonely hotel room in Canada, with just the MN OG CJ appreciation thread for company and amusement? Maybe he has secretly contributed?????

Nickel45 · 28/11/2014 21:34

Great minds ... richtea Grin

Richtea19 · 28/11/2014 21:43

Nickel yes simultaneous great minds, and bonkers too!

orphan · 28/11/2014 21:46

Wow, I go away for a couple of hours ... welcome delurkers!

cherin so glad you haven't forgotten the measuring picture. Which method are you going to draw - two hander or crawling between legs? Will Operation Bulge be referenced?

cherin · 28/11/2014 21:49

I googled his name up and we don't come in the first 2 pages...BUT he may have received our card! And followed us from thread 3 to here (half way through 5!!)

Hi everyone , in case some of you did not catch this the other week. Here is a link to the BBC Radio Manchester interview that BA and IR did.

Re: Ben in Canada, do we know where and what's he is filming ? As my friend works for one of the big TV networks out there.. She may be able to --hunt him down investigate if his still out there.

A little photo to keep us all going...Smile

We've all got to have hope, cherin, I'm not a west ham fan, but believe me, I know what I'm talking about.

(well, obviously, I have no clue what I'm along about, but you know what I mean!!)

icemist · 28/11/2014 21:58

I have a suspicion, but its purely guesswork. We think he might be in Toronto

Nickel45 · 28/11/2014 21:59

I love that pic Aurora, thank you :)

Reckon you should get your friend to suss out what's going on (how have you waited out this long?)

Richtea19 · 28/11/2014 21:59

Cherin a legs akimbo photo to assist with your drawing classes, and specifically for operation bulge!

How come icemist? Have you been on a secret mission?

orphan · 28/11/2014 22:05

Ooh good one richtea. We just need to photo shop you and me into that pic, soft tape measures in hand.

AuroraDR · 28/11/2014 22:10

Shame we do not know the show, as I could discreetly enquire about if it's finished filming...Then I could go on to ask if any British actors have been in it.....etc etc. or I could just ask her outright, but that would mean coming clean about my addiction being a fan. Although I do not see her that often so it would not be too embarrassing....Grin

icemist · 28/11/2014 22:14

there are a few pilots starting to shoot in Vancouver and Toronto- going a few weeks ago would tie in with having script read throughs/rehearsals. But I did ponder if he was going to film Reign- thats in Toronto with the CW network. I'm pretty sure he said to film a series in the interview as well, which makes me think its maybe an established show rather than a pilot which may/may not be ever shown on tv

All guesswork and no amount of stalking googling has gotten me anything to back it up.

OP posts:
cherin · 28/11/2014 22:27

He must be cold in Toronto, much colder than if he was in Vancouver. Poor Ben, surely he's feeling cold and lonely and in a desperate attempt to feel a bit of the home cheer (?) he followed our link and he's now laughing his guts out at the simple idea of this bunch of people sketching, writing, rhyming and obsessively looking at pictures of his crotch, imagining stag-shaped thongs underneath...

AuroraDR · 28/11/2014 22:34

I have just emailed her . I just said there was a really great TV show on in the UK recently. I then said that one of the actors from it: BA said he was going to film in Canada and has she heard of him.. so now we will just have to wait out and see if she knows anything.

Richtea19 · 28/11/2014 22:40

I can only apologise for what I am posting!! cherin please may I join your drawing classes??!

cherin · 28/11/2014 22:42

You kidding???? You are the new Milo Manara, lady!!! :-)
