Great photo onlygirl although we don't know what he's wearing on his bottom half of course. Emu feather rah-rah skirt, lederhosen, or of course my fave, going commando in commandos.

Been a busy but very pleasant day and only just having the time to check back in here. Afternoon tea was lovely and it was nice to catch up with my friend over sandwiches, cakes and scones. I was a complete slob before she arrived and the front lounge windows were in need of cleaning so I just did the centre pane which is the only bit she would see. Am I allowed to confess that? (As in what's on here stays on here and all that).

Have caught up on all the ff I think. Wow, it gets better. Loving the MN references as well. I eventually managed to finish reading yesterday's paper as well!

FWK I love that picture. I did wonder myself if you were an insider! I think we may have scared outin off. Please come back - we're quite normal really!

Think it's time for bed but may have a quick nosey back to see if any more ff has been updated.

Night all.

Thanks for the cosequences ff link, icemist. It's great. I'm struggling to keep up with all the stories and have to admit I'm muddling some of them up now!

orphan - I'm having a hot flush thinking about your last suggestion!

As HH are so rubbish I've reworked the 'skills' section of BA's CV to reflect his new (although largely unbeknownst to him) skill set, hope you like it...

Spot the differences

Damn, they've crunched my pic so it's hard to read, I'll pop it up on drop box if you're interested.

orphan (again, sorry) I am starting to get the ff stories a bit mixed up too - is Molly with CJ, not with him, does she have a child, are they still out in Afghan etc. I have started re-reading or at least skim reading the previous chapter to refresh my memory - it all falls into place then.

elsie that is brilliant! So funny ... Definitely more appealing than the boring HH one!

I am supposed to be getting to bed!

elsie there are tears coming down my face here. That is amazing! Can I send it direct to Graham Norton do you think? Hahahahaha.

can you guys read it, I'm struggling to make it work from my end?!

Hilarious Elsie - love it!

Cheered me up no end. Another tricky day, one of my twins keeps getting the shitty end of the stick (know just how smurf felt) and I feel so bad for him.

Going to finish the day with another dose of "another time..." Just what I need before sleep!

ok PDF looks to work ok (I hope)! This obsessive world of fandom is stressful, I'm off for a lie down a rub down with some ostrich feathers and a catch up on FF, I now feel for all you authors!

Elsie, I am in stitches!!!! You win today's medal of Refined Silliness with an extra Technical Commendation! I have got tears rolling down my cheeks (and yes the drop box version is much more readable. The last sentence is just the top!)

elsie that is priceless! Please contact HH and get them to update their files immediately.

beingfrank sorry you and your son have had such a bad day. Hope things get better soon. rhubarb's story will at least give your day a lovely ending.

Elsie3g I actually have tears running down my face. Is anyone any good at hacking (as in computers) to upload this to the HH website, think he would get lots of work!!!

Thank you for your kind comments ladies don't think there would have been another chapter if it wasn't for the very nice onlygirljen

elsie that is so funny! You are so clever! Absolutely love it. ilove you're right, straight to Graham Norton!!!

ilove yes, good tip to reread previous chapter. Glad I'm not the only one showing my age getting a bit confused! When I was reading actual books (seems eons ago now) I always had a few on the go at the same time, but of course they were all completely different characters and storylines, so much easier to keep track of. I think CJ has addled my brain and now I'm good for nothing except Bulge spotting (and a little light measuring).

Thanks you lot, you just made me think we better update his CV to provide a more accurate refection of his natural abilities.

Cjwoof I'm not sure if in real life I'd let you represent him in case you did a bunk to Vegas to meet Elvis!

Hilarious HH update elsie but also quite accurate I feel. I'm liking the sound of a bunk up...oh no sorry too late at night I need my glasses, must've misread what you wrote

elsie hilarious. Set me up nicely for Mon morning x

That is amazing elsie so funny

Morning all, love the photos this morning icemist... Charles..

elsie I'm still chuckling from last night and BAs CV :)

Morning! Ooh, richtea just reading 'Charles' and looking at icemist's pic, I can hear the delicious way CJ says it... Not a good idea to get hot and bothered at the start of the day.

I love that BA's real middle name is Charles!
