hello all, not been around for a few days. I see you talking about lovely Mark Ruffalo swoon....

The organisation of the naked fireside wrestling seems well in hand, so to speak, so I'm hitting my pit.

Pleeease let me have CJ wrestling related dreams...

Hi lola, I like Mark Ruffalo, but not in that way ;-)

But I did happen to catch him in a good film on netflix with the ever brilliant Laura Linney, check it out if you haven't already

www.imdb.com/title/tt0203230/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_40 fairly slow paced but with a resonance, i liked it.

Gotta hit my pit too! Fireside dreams, hope ther're better than last night, apparently I woke up turning off alarm saying Lord Sugar! Night all, sweet dreams x

well if anyone is interested on twitter tomorrow there is a Q&A with Nick Preston (Mansfield Mike in OG), if you got any Q you can join in as some of the twitter girls are collating to send to him.
Its on there so lots can see it as the FB closed group did something earlier. but of course no one can see that!
A lot of the fans are younger so good way for them to ask Q's via twitter.

Don't think the FB admin are very happy tho. Some comments on their page tonight. Oh dear can't please everyone.

I can copy and paste his responses if people are not on twitter and you interested?

Morning

Looking forward to the q'n'a later. The lady organising it has got all our questions and I'll post the answers later. If anyone thought of anymore overnight let me know this morning and I'll send them over to her.

Need to work out how many competitors there are for our 'Fireside Wrestling Invitational Cup'

Ooh lots of new chapters on ff including this brilliant one

m.fanfiction.net/s/10882245/5/

Morning everyone everyone. Thread I - wow! Re spooks, which I also loved, it's a good job they weren't all it at the same time or I might have exploded!

Thanks Icemist for your support on latest chapter. Only managed a meesily 1000 words this week. Work frantic and only managed a quick skim on here too. Complete light weight compared to the rest of you fab authors/bloggers.
So impressed onlygirl with your latest work, the suspense is killing me. 6 months on tour, now he has found her, surely CJ will have to have his hands tied behind his back.

Am also liking the idea of CJ and RPJ working together, but only if both in combats.

I'm really loving your ff onefor, I don't know how you all have time to write, but please keep doing it!

Can't believe how much I missed last night! Succumbed to an early night with a splitting headache (after sorting my ring tone, thank you so much elsie, you genius),

So, went through the past thread and I think this is our wrestling list (apologies if I missed any, and for spelling mistakes):
CJ
Raza Jaffery
Strike back boys
Rupert Friend
Iris Elba
Sean Bean
Tom Ellis
The Muskateers
Alexandra Gassman
Tom Hiddlestone
Richard Rankin
Daniel Craig
Paulo Nutini
Til Schweiger
Oliver Tobias
James Norton

Tom Hardy
David Morrisey
Rupert PJ
Richard Armitage
Matthew McNulty

Half time entertainment: Mark Ruffalo and James MvAvoy, Michael buble
Coats/canapés: bates and Nigel Harman

Cool, we need 32 to split it perfectly - 32 to 16 to 8 etc...
I know musketeers would add 3 more
And smurf so need 4 more ladies and we can vote starting tomorrow at some point

Morning! icemist Viggo The Raisin in his Aragorn incarnation has to be in there please. Is Rupert PJ front of house rather than a contestant? Or does he have a quick rub down after his bout and change into his tux to circulate and charm us ladies?

oneforthegirls great new chapter! Reading about CJ's thumbs 'gently caressing' made me feel pleasantly warm inside. I do love his hands...

Blimey things moved on apace yesterday evening!

I feel the urge to belatedly chip in with a couple of pertinent claims to fame!

25 years ago, I used to work with the now Countess of Caernarvon (chatelaine of Highclere). She was always very well connected and posh - you just knew she would marry well. She was good fun though!

Rupert Penry-Jones: I don't know him but I did meet his brother a few times about 10 years ago! He is now stepfather to my ds's nursery friend, whose mother is an actress - represented by none other than Hamilton Hodell, a quick google reveals (I'm no longer in touch, she moved to LA some years ago).

A quick look at BA's HH page reveals that he is trained in stage combat, so it should serve him well for the wrestling!

Still loving all the fanfic, you amazingly talented bunch - but I have so much to read still, it feels like I will never get up to date!

orphan I'm with you there. Whenever I need a quick hand fix, I fast forward to the scene in ep 3 in CJ's tent when he finds the coffee on his pillow. Cannot believe how gorgeous his hands are wrapped around those pods. such long fingers......
Cold shower time for me

Oh and I'm told by a very reliable source that Tom Hardy lives very close to me, though I have to admit I haven't seen him yet. Perhaps I could volunteer to hand deliver his invite to the wrestling?

Beingfrank I think his mother is Angela Thorne (Rupert PJ I mean). I remember him being on a chat show, probably Graham Norton, a while back. She used to be in To The Manor Born with Penelope Keith.

Just about caught up on all the best ff new chapters. onefor - just like Orphan, that description of CJ's caressing thumbs made my insides all turn to mush. You are top notch!

Off up to the Lakes today as the forecast is just for rain not snow thank goodness.

This is where we are heading. Been loads of times, including a small party when it was my 40th, quite some time ago! It would be an ideal place to be stranded with CJ, or Rupert PJ or any number of those other potential wrestlers......... but CJ would be my first choice naturally.

icemist if you are looking to bolster numbers, how about Theo James of Divergent fame. He does a mean stern face. Advantage of having a teenage daughter is you keep up to date with latest celeb crushes. He's older than BA. How embarrassing that my celeb crush is younger than my DD's. Doh

Iloveblue - yes that's right, Angela Thorne is their mum. Have a lovely day in the lakes!

Bloody hell, I disappear for an evening to do some writing and you lot move on to a new thread! The wrestling has fairly progressed!

Enjoy the lakes ilove! We go to Windermere quite often to stay with friends - I bloody love it there!

Ps onefor loved the new chapter!

Need to check the new chapter, but also need to take a hot shower after a run (good sightseeing today! Morning run in Hampstead Heath, afternoon tea at fortnum&mason....my working class self is starting to feel inadequate ;-)

I think hot shower-read-cold shower may be needed? (Good for blood circulation, right?)

Can we add jude law and George Clarke (the restoration guy, is that his name?) Into the mix? And I thinking, maybe to keep SPO interested, we could have those girls who in round with the boards announcing the next round. Of course, SPO, you'd need to let us know who you wanted

George Clarke has filled out in the face a bit much IMHO - he's not as good looking as he used to be! Ditto James Martin.

I do find Phil Spencer weirdly attractive though. Any one else got any weird crushes to include?

Uuuhhhuuu if we're still adding to the list, I may invite Scott Foley (scandal, CBS, and also The Unit). I know he's a Yankee... He would be a strong contestant, with all his precedents in uniform and holding guns here and there...(and he's tall and lean. But 42, which means I'd feel not a coguar at all ;-)
(For a 42yo, he's fighting fit!)
