Mystery of blindfolded man solved... Not king Antoine

Remind us onlygirl about RL Chris. Do you work with him? I know you said you were at university with him but I had in my mind you worked with him as well. I can just imagine how much his head would swell if he knew we all fancied him! There's self-confidence and there's self-confidence eh?

No ilove we don't work together, although our offices aren't far apart in geographical terms. We first met during late high school days and went to uni together.

Yep, self confident doesn't really begin to cover it! I'm sure he'd love to know he has admirers, but I refuse to inflate his ego even further! He's no CJ, I must say - I must paint him in a flattering light!

Ps - thanks richtea

Evening all. First chance to check in today. I too was under whelmed by wolf hall, not so much because of the lighting and sound just slow moving. I thought I'd like it. I did history a level and remember that I liked Thomas Cromwell though can't remember now why. Underwhelmed in general by TV at the moment - broadchurch not a patch on last series. Thank goodness for fan fic. only girl you are brilliant and lola you are hilarious. Haven't managed to catch up on the others yet. Looking forward to reign -don't care if it isn't historical. Is it on vimeo yet?
On the tattoo front I have a tribal design on my lower back. I often forget it's there until I lean over/reach up for something and someone comments.

I'm imagining RL Chris is like the captain in Bluestone!!

aspara is there scope for redesigning your tribal tattoo into something OG related? Wouldn't it be good if when you bent over, a lip biting CJ appeared from the top of your trousers?

Now there's a thought orphan

That's our next pitch to the Dragons Den: Our Girl Tattoo Parlour. From discreet tattoos such as stags for the more conservative client to full blown CJ portraits for the more flamboyant.

Perhaps my phrasing about the portraits could be better...

Ooh, what sort of tattoo is SPO going to include in zombies?

We need to develop a series of garments incorporating cjwoof's tattoo ideas for those less keen to indelibly mark themselves. I'd buy a pair of pants with CJs hands in gloves on the bottom (luckily he's got big hands)

Ladies you are nuts! On the bus towards home (finally!!!), must crack on the ff before it gets so much I can't follow you....
The tattoo parlour is good idea to target younger fans. I am also terrified at idea of sagging volumes, crinkly skin distorting CJ smile into zombie-smurf snarl ;-)

Many years ago I was told a joke very politically incorrect, now I will adapt it to more modern times and personal-related circumstances.
A middle aged woman with already lots of kids goes to the doctor and finds out she's pregnant again.
"Oh, doctor, then I need to ask you something. Where is the heart exactly?"
"About two inches below the breast" says the doctor.
The following day, the local paper: "pregnant woman tries to commit suicide by stabbing herself in the knees"

(Ok, it was terrible. But I can relate with the gravity-afflicted boobs!!!)

pixie good idea, I would have a paded bra (small icebergs) with CJ gloves. Double wammy, boobs and CJs hands :)

lola'im saving your ff for bedtime, it sounds like there will be giggles!

Good idea pixie re "garment tattoos" if you don't fancy skin embellishments. There could be a matching Glove Clutch bra to go with the pants, (or a thermal vest for the more mature lady). Also men's combat coloured boxers with detailed to scale bulge picture, only available in size XXXL to be truly to scale.

Or a bra with appliqué arms folded so very big hands disappear inside the cups, big watch, sleeves rolled up

Love it cherin ha ha ha

What about a balcony style bra with the CJ gloves appearing to 'hold you up' as it were?

I'm liking the idea of "tattooed" bra and knicks ... Another merchandising opportunity for out AGM agenda :)

Mmm yes orphan I'd wear a bra like that. It could come in three styles, the army gloves camo coloured one, the yellow gardening gloves blue checked one (from Ep 5 lumberjack shirt scene), and the natural Ungloved big hands, long fingers flesh coloured one (from the luring Molly upstairs holding onto the banister scene)

I knew there was a higher purpose for CJ's long fingered hands: as part of a bra design for the 'full icebergs' amongst us.

Iceberg needs to be added to the dictionary of slang as in "Get your icebergs out!'

And for the sport version? Two gloved hands pulling up from the shoulders?
Mhm
I am not sure I would buy something that may add bulkiness or rolls to the already existing stock. But if it was very compressive, like a push-in (the lardominals) instead of a push-up (the boobs) may be...
And for men, a 6-pack carefully drawn version ( must check with OG make up artist, she may repeat her masterpiece in the paddling pool, wonder if she used waterproof eye shadow)
(Quick, Cherin, duck and run!!)

orphan that is definitely my sort of bra. I'm with Richtea in the bust department! Small icebergs indeed.

Are we including the launch of our new lingerie range at the AGM? We could have a fashion show??

Just packed up for my overnight stay with my friend/neighbour: she who declared CJ in the paddling pool scene was too bony. It's mainly shopping and eating and is our Christmas present to ourselves. I have packed a book and a magazine as I won't be tapping away on here, or unlikely anyway. I have to go back to RL overnight tomorrow I think and attempt to finish the book I started before Christmas! I may be able to do a quick whizz through but I know you have to pay for wifi in the hotel we are using so it's down to my data allowance which is dwindling fast due to reading the ff in work. Please don't start anything dramatic whilst I'm out of range!

Perhaps chest measurements for said bra size requirements could be determined by how much of a handful fits into CJs big hands. If there's sufficient overflow CJ would need to keep kneading, jiggling cupping until the correct size could be determined. I don't mind putting myself forward first to test the theory, as I think it could take some time for my correct size to be discovered as there would be plenty of overflow.

I think this exercise may have to be a separate agenda item at the AGM as the queue of ladies waiting for CJ to measure their chests would be very long indeed. Anyone who prefers the vest option does not need to queue.
