Ooh Nickel sounds like good material to use in script for Series 2 - wasnt there a ff where CJ was in Africa and caught Ebola and Molly was shipped back to Blighty to help his recovery? Was it one of Klipdoctors? I read so many I've forgotten

My first week of work over! Better today and there were cakes and biscuits! Mr Beardie, scrap him. I'm closer inspection, bit skinning, casual slacks and dodgy jumper. Such a shame as looks really young.

cjwoof so glad it's not just me that gets confused with all the ff. I'm getting ff/MN and RL all mixed up! Maybe we should have a name for our parallel world!

Skinny not skinning! Brain and fingers not working together!

Trying to be good this week and setting an example to the apprentices sitting around me by not checking in here every so often! I've been lucky since November that my colleague left and the desk has been empty ever since so there's been no problem dipping in and out of here during the working day. Must be careful now.

Mind you, I was checking the "How to be a CJ Collective Obsessive" spreadsheet this morning before forwarding on to Nickel and realised the young apprentice could see my screen. What he thought of "An excuse to have sex in the office" which was the explanation for Staff/Team meeting. What will his mother think if he tells her? She will wonder what sort of organisation we are!!

ilove Or he'll just be very excited when you announce a team meeting...

Hee hee I'd best not open it at work then!!!!

Lol ilove would love to be a fly on the wall for the first team meeting he has to go to!

Poor bloke - the first team meeting is going to be such a disappointment for him! He might develop a complex wondering if it's because of him that the usual sex wasn't on the agenda...

Although he might try a bit harder in the next team meeting!

He'll be eager to have a staff appraisal.

The women in our area are all 35+ so unless he's after a cougar, he's had it! Count me out because he sniffs and I can't stand people who don't blow their nose! Oh and he's not even started shaving yet!

Lots of lovely new ff today. Thanks everyone.

I am loving the new ff jen RL chris and a swivel chair

Ooh, lots of new ff, fab!
Whajeb really enjoyed your latest chapter, really lovely .... Back to read the rest now :)

Just having a little giggle to myself, but that dairy milk advert has just been on the TV, updated with lots of swivel chairs! How bizarre, not seen that ad for ages, and it's back just as our talk has turned to swivel chairs ... Spooky!!!

ilove do your apprentices have swivel chairs?

Talking spooky, rhubarb, your writing is amazing. It's like reading a book you can't put down. I love it, can't wait to see what happens next. So Molly, doing exactly what she wants!!!

Where is everyone tonight? Are you all out having romantic valentines meals?

onlygirl just read your ff, can't believe you didn't get a staff meeting in there!!!! . You've really spoilt us, swivel chairs, RL Chris and of course QS!!!! Really good story :)

Right, best go do something useful ... Or maybe just watch some TV!! :)

Nickel we all have swivel chairs!

I'm back. Had friends round for tea including the one who said CJ had a bony chest. They've just gone now and I am going to wash up and read the ff in bed.

Night all!

onlygirl loved the ff. Twitter all abuzz with it. Burst out laughing at swivel chair and Chris reference. Brilliant.

Have a great Valentine Weekend everyone. xx

Lovely ff everyone, although I'm almost too tired to read them. Long day of child wrangling.

Nickel thanks for comments but looks like I've got the seasons all wrong should be putting this out for Halloween really not Valentine's day although I promised no behind the sofa stuff! Although it is Friday the 13th!!!

In answer to your question where is everyone - answer is watching The Musketeers meets The Magnificent Seven! Gosh it is tripe but easy enough on the eye and not the least bit mentally taxing. Still can't believe it goes out post 9pm - its just so wrong! Actually it struck me that its just a bit of TV fanfic really as it's simply based on the original books but the stories are all made up!

Just a reminder that episode 5 of Bluestone 42 is on tonight for any you who haven't seen it. ("The episode" often referred to in earlier threads)

onlygirl what a great story! As everyone says, how clever to get in RL Chris and swivel chairs!! And QS too. What a treat!

Wonderful ff updates from everyone!

onlygirl I have to say a special thank you for your Valentine's treat. A very nice way to end my day...

Off to London again tomorrow with friend and our daughters for shopping trip, so no lie in and will be incommunicado for the day I should think. Valentine's day for me is being rescheduled to Sunday.

What I love about the ff stories at the moment is that they're all so different and cover the full range. There's suspense, angst, spookiness humour, romance and QS. We readers are so lucky!

Hi all! Thanks very much for the lovely comments, was just a little one that popped into my head.

rhubarb put the idea of CJ in the bath in my head a little while ago, and had to write something - thanks rhubarb!!

Valentine's Day treat. Thanks jen :)
