Maybe you could have it playing when she arrives, paused on a gorgeous CJ pic? How could she resist?

Just catching up with Jonathan Ross (probably from last week or the week before!) ... New film out with Jude Law in may .... Looking forward to that :)

On further research on Icemists Reign YouTube clip, I do believe the leather trousers are in fact Leather leggings. I detect no front pocket or zip fly. Much easier to investigate bulge but not so good for comfort breaks!

Watched Homeland tonight and Sohail (or the actor who played him) is in a spot of bother. Rupert Friend has got hold of him and it doesn't look like they're going to be playing Scrabble. I did wonder if Rupert Friend could be a cousin of CJ - the one who taught him how to wrestle - cue flashback to them wrestling, you guessed it, naked in front of a fire...

After, claiming he didn't have a clue as to what he would like for Christmas, my son suddenly produced a list today. Digital effects pedal for guitar, Nike trainers, super skinny jeans, etc etc. No requests for satsumas, chocolate coins or pants I note.

Morning all.

Back to our fave captain this morning

Work today and boys still asleep. Usually up and nearly dressed at this time. Hubby will have to get them ready and off to school club and nursery. He won't be best pleased

Can't beat a few CJ pictures to start the day, thank you icemist

beingfrank hope everything goes ok today. Don't think too much .... or try and distract yourself with thoughts of CJ if at all possible. Let us know how you get on x

icemist do you want your sister to appreciate OG as a whole or to admire the beauty that is CJ? If the latter, how about the Whatta Man You Tube clip? You're so good though that you could probably pull an even better 'best shots' one together yourself!

icemist episode 2 has a lot going for it though - Molly drooling over CJ exercising, the infamous paddling pool, eye drops, CJ calling her 'Dawsey' and the hip swiveling, winking duet!

I love that middle pic! What a fantastic smile.

beingfrank thinking of you today.

being frank hope all goes well.
great pics from Icemist to keep you going

Couldn't help smirking to myself in klipdoctor's latest chapter when Molly says "Where's the package?" I did wonder if he'd been reading about Operation Bulge!

Ahahahah!
But I must say I find our own SPO's writing more engaging than klipdoctor. He really can keep suspense! Atta-man, SPO!

My son asked for pants in his letter to Santa "because he hasn't got any in the right size". Ahemm. I assumed they're too small, I don't want to start worrying about kid bulge or bum size...

I must say when I read Klipdoctor and when I read it I expected zombies to turn up in it!!!!

Cherin I have two skinny boys who wear pants too small as they fall down otherwise. Not good when your 15 wearing age 12-13, poor lad will get a complex!!

Good luck and love to you Beingfrank x

Good luck beingfrank, come back to us with good news.

Agreed Ep 3 is good, esp Rosabaya scene aah! but Ep 2 does have added benefits like Orphan says. Then again I didn't notice the added benefits of Ep 2 until I'd got obsessively hooked seen Ep 3 first, then re watched Ep 1&2 50 several more times and realized what I'd missed. It's a tricky one! To my mind any scene with CJ stern face, legs akimbo arms folded, or furrowed brow and headset is worth drooling over watching.

Poor icemist only having two days between now and 28th to watch OG again. I'd be all over the shop if I didn't get my CJ fix every waking hour day. Hope you don't stop posting those lovely daily still pics though - they're great.

Orphan quite like idea of Rupert Friend playing CJs cousin who taught him how to wrestle. For a Rupert he's not half bad I agree. Hopefully the Strike Back boys could somehow be involved in refereeing the naked contest in front of the fire between CJ and Rupert? Perhaps they could each be in their 'corner' then accidentally lose all their clothes as battle commences.

I can't remember who it was talking about a CJ point of view thing at the eyedrop scene.

I've been tinkering in between unpacking boxes, and you can read it docs.google.com/document/d/10qoUM70Z_bmxKr5fYwLxIQ0K0umCP-3rAhHInaW0dKg/edit?usp=docslist_api and let me know what you think.

Pixie that piece is brilliant, love it. Well done, what a talent!! More please.

Wow pixie that is brilliant, I love it, I'm sitting in starbucks with a silly grin on my face, that is really good

Ooh pixie girl what a treat to read on the bus on the way to do some Xmas shopping. Now feeling all warm inside even without stag pants! Really love how you've woven it all together

Love that bit of writing pixie! I think you got it just right. And the last paragraph was a great way to end, I hadn't even clocked the double meaning of "luck smiling on us" until I read that. I've one question though, I may have missed this, but who is Archie?

Archie is a friend I have made up for CJ. He is due to appear in a future story I'm planning.

pixie, I think you could actually be be Tony G masquerading as a mum on MN! Brilliant really enjoyed it, thoughtful and perfectly pitched. I wouldn't know where to start if I was writing it, I'd never get the layers of emotion you've woven through it. Perfect. More more more please!

Thank you for your kind words. Of course you're all a bit mental biased.

Thanks pixie. Glad to hear you're planning a future story, keep them coming!

Ah, pixie, not based ... Just honest.

Just had to watch the end of ep 2, while I was wrapping presents (yep, actually finally got some!) and hadn't finished so was watching the start of ep 3 ... not noticed it before, but Dangles naked again at at the end of the shower bit ... !!

Afternoon all!

Yes, like Rupert Friend - definitely give him a part!

Ooh there's an idea. Perhaps we should start a Mumsnet Casting Agency. The possibilities are endless. I can think of so many dramas that I would have recast. Bet you can too!
