No worries on the ringtone/audio front, I've had fun doing it!

onlygirljen...

  1. What are talking about a filler chapter!?
  2. What a fantastic build up!
  3. What you are doing on this thread reading my comments?...Get busy writing your next chapter!!! Wink
Onlygirljen · 09/01/2015 19:42

Thanks richtea and elsie Smile

The way the weather is going, it might be another night of writing!

Richtea19 · 09/01/2015 19:42

I'm going to brave the windy weather and heading out for a drink with a friend. No OG chat as for some bizzarre reason she watched it and CJ didn't register with her, bonkers!!!

pixieg1rl · 09/01/2015 19:45

onlygirljen I'm keeping everything crossed that the next bout of weather heading your way isn't as bad as predicted. The idea that you could be without electricity by which to type more and an internet connection to upload more is too much to bear. You are confine to barracks. I need more excellent ff from you.

Onlygirljen · 09/01/2015 19:47

Yes Sir! pixie

Confined to barracks with only CJ for company in the stormy weather, now there's an idea....

pixieg1rl · 09/01/2015 19:53

It would be all 'research' and no writing though!

elsie3g · 09/01/2015 20:04

Just for you cjwoofwoof some posh mp3s!

The 'brize nortons' sound a bit naff when I mix them side-by-side, so I've given you first the Brize Norton rap, then singular versions to boot.

For everyone else here's some quick links to hear them...
Rap: soundcloud.com/elsie3g/brizenorton-mix
Brize 1: soundcloud.com/elsie3g/brize-1
Brize 2: soundcloud.com/elsie3g/brize2

Personally I always smile when he says "village" in ep1 when he's briefing them on the checkpoint; very regal, deserving of a dodgy crown and tight leather perhaps?!

elsie3g · 09/01/2015 20:05

Oooh I like the idea of the confined to barracks research mission!

cherin · 09/01/2015 20:49

onlygirl, that's soooooooo clever!! Wow! I am hooked!!!!
Sorry for the storm, but actually hope it keeps you awake again (just a bit...not for serious reasons, just so you can write!!) love it!!

icemistOBE · 09/01/2015 21:01

onlygirl you are a seriously good writer! I am absolutely loving your new story. Please tell me you've got the next chapter ready to go!Smile

orphan · 09/01/2015 21:49

Also please can I request that this story is very,very long with dozens of chapters?Smile

Nickel45 · 09/01/2015 22:16

onlygirl brilliant story, completely hooked!

I hope you are all keeping safe in the winds (keep writing onlygirl!) ... Howling round here now, turned the TV up so I can't hear it!!

Finally finished the birthday cake and all the other prep, other than sarnies (which the kids probably won't eat ... Why do we bother?!) which will be tomorrow mornings job. Unfortunately my culinary skills don't extend to making any sort of CJ :( I could probably make a sausage out of icing ... But NOOOOOOO!!!

elsie, thank you for the FAA clip, I've downloaded it onto my phone (some sir of Samsung) but it looks like I can only have standard text notifications ... Boring! Will google and hopefully do something, otherwise might have to have a think for a ring tone. Thank you for sorting all these, they're amazing!

elsie3g · 09/01/2015 22:19

what's your exact phone nickel?

Nickel45 · 09/01/2015 22:22

Umm ...?!?

elsie3g · 09/01/2015 22:24

doh! Smile

Evening

Just briefly dropping in. onlygirl its on my list of must reads!

Apart from the obvious attractions I have to say that the Musketeers is rubbish! It looks as if their idea of beefing it up for a post 9pm audience is just murdering a few people, willy nilly! I can't believe they recommissioned this instead of more truly gritty and inspiring drama - any ideas come to mind?

Still like Santiago, though - otherwise ughhh!

Rant over.

Goodnight all!

cherin · 09/01/2015 22:38

Ahahahah! I have been watching an episode of the good wife on 4, and it's very catching but now that I think about it...I could I find the story between alicia and will interesting?? Will? Compared to CJ?? I must have been kidding ;-)

apsara03 · 09/01/2015 22:43

Thanks for my bedtime story onlygirl loving it Grin

Richtea19 · 09/01/2015 23:47

Hello all, I survived the winds, God it's horrid out. nickel you made me laugh about the sausage of icing, and reminded me of many years ago I made a cake in the shape of a penis for a friends hen night. It was horrid, but very funny at the time!

I've recorded the musketeers, it's a shame that the plot is a bit flaky, but aramis is rather hunky. cherin the Good Wife is brilliant. Alicia and Will, brilliant chemistry between them.

Ilovelblue · 10/01/2015 00:38

Visitors now gone. My friend's new partner kindly offered to do the washing up so that we had a chance to chat about more girly things. She knows of my CJ obsession as I had told her before Christmas and feel quite safe she won't judge me as she doesn't have a television so clearly hasn't a clue! I have shown her the odd photo though on my phone.

I also told her about the ff and that I had co-written one of them (what a long time ago that seems now). Although she said she'd not heard of ff, when I mentioned 50 Shades, she did seem to recall the association.

Going back to the sausage theme earlier today, remember Mansfield Mike and his 50 sausage challenge? Would we be up to a 50 CJ sausage challenge do you think?

Off to read onlygirl's latest offering. I see the Five Years On has two new chapters too. I will be very, very late to bed tonight.

orphan · 10/01/2015 00:39

richtea was the cake free hand or did you just happen to have the right shaped cake tin available?Grin

icemistOBE · 10/01/2015 07:22

onlygirl - brilliant! Can't wait for your next instalment.

Hope you have battened down the hatches and have survived the bad weather.

Great pics icemist. Such a nice way to wake up - along with CJ shouting to me "have some human decency..." on my alarm.
