Me again Lola...

CJ old news eh? I can't believe it, if CJ puts the mirror down for a min and brushes off his snug fitting cricket whites he might win her back! ;-) Intrigued as to how 'the plot' will be resolved! Loved the blackout shenanigans and the Dancing Queen rendition. LolaMillahr, next chapter please!

Evening! Finally back home, what a crappy day of travel! Had the misfortune of a seat beside the drunkest man on the plane on the flight home to top it all off

No BA sightings, all those thigh exercises wasted...

Loving all the ff updates, you lot are incredible! Thank you xx

richtea fantastic news on the interview, I hope they let you know soon.
ilove glad the bug has taken hold
onlygirl guessing you did get very inspired to write on the way back? Eugh!?!

Oh no jen

Oops, meant didnt get inspired onlygirl ... Doesn't make any sense otherwise!

Jen, you never know, maybe HE spotted you and hide...;-)
I know the experience of flying with drunk, scary! In my case it was a youngish rugby player and he upset some Turkish ladies on the same flight, for a moment I feared the steward would come with handcuffs!!! Luckily he passed out soon enough, and his friends (tipsy but not drunk drunk) acted as international mediators :-)

Really glad Richtea's interview went well, I am not superstitious but maybe the stag pants and our thoughts contributed somehow to make you feel more relaxed? Sofisticated and silly wins the job? :-)

Never a waste jen, you never know when you will be required to pounce like a cat and cling like a baby gorilla.

True story pixie, it's a life skill I guess. Always be prepared for any sighting.

cherin he would truly hide if he saw me waiting to pounce!

All sounds positive from the interview richtea, fingers crossed for good news! I'm going to catch up on ff shortly, been saving whajeb's since I saw the email appear!

Shockingly have come home to both kids asleep thanks to DH - I should leave the country for the day more often!

Finally got a chance to catch up on some ff yesterday on my day off. I think it was yours onlygirljen, from a link icemist put on. Wow. Don't know what else to say. You have a real talent and I've so enjoyed reading your work.

Am looking forward to catching up on some others, just need to go through and find the best of the rest now. Sadly, back to work today. Wish I had some leave left so I could dedicate an entire day to the task while DS is at school. Am seriously considering a "home emergency".

Treating myself to episode 2 after- long day. haven't watched whole episode for a while.
Fingers crossed for the job richtea
Loving the ff updates. Though not reading klipdoctors -sounds too traumatic.

Just seen these ... Goblet in hand, of course!

Can't take major beck seriously anymore though thanks to SPO

And this one with a new cape

He's wearing a carpet! I think I preferred the dead animal rug!

How about this?

You can pretend the awful robe isn't there ..

onlygirl your journey home sounds horrid, but at least everything was sorted when you got home.

I'm always hassling by cabin crew friend to keep an eye out for BA. I do think it's bad that you haven't got your autograph yet icemist maybe a phone call should be made to find out the whereabouts of it?

cherin the power of the stag pants and all the CJ Collective support I hope works!!!

I meant curtain. The capes look like something the kings wear at an infant school nativity!

Dreadful robe, brocade fabric should only be used on curtains or upolstery!

That's a nice one ice, still holding the goblet ... Maybe he just needs a few drinks to make up for the cloaks!

stressy thank you so much, you are very kind!

I have to say I can't look at those pics particularly with the one with the crown on the back of his head without thinking pantomime (perhaps its all the studio shots). For some reason Dick Whittington comes to mind. All we need is some woman dressed up as a cat in a pair of long boots slapping her thigh!

I think we need a drink to cope with them too!
lola SPO looking forward to the upholstery references :)

I was a bit concerned about where that other fellas hand was in the carpet cloak picture... Mind you, I am due a new pair of specs.

Mon dieu, that couple of capes/brocade/however you want to call them are hideous! Leftovers of fabric from a 1970 Dallas villa make over? Combined with a couple of dead wolves around the neck? Yeeeekkk
And the gobelet reminds me of Sunday mass...
No no
Army fatigues anytime. Or even high rise cricket trousers. He deserves so much better! He needs to get into another BBC production, at least their costume designers are great!
