Hi percy
Please stay and chat.

I've just braved markab- I'm not sure.... Will try another chapter and see how the story develops

Can you let me know... I'm all for angst but I found the last one a bit much, I shamelessly read to escape into a world with hope of a happy ending, but found I kept going back to it just in case it was all going to be ok.

How's that prose co going down? I keep meaning to get a cup of tea but social media distracts! Slightly less glamorous!

icemistOBE · 07/03/2015 21:46

Prosecco is going down nicely 2 1/2 glasses and I feel tipsy Confused

How lovely! I finally made my cup of tea at which point the nipper fell out of bed and needed cuddling back to sleep! Managed to get back to it just before it got cold. Had one of my 'just in case' cream eggs too, but couldn't help but notice that someone seems else seems to be eating them too... Might have to start hiding them!

percyjackson1 · 07/03/2015 22:04

Markab is in his usual groove he might start skipping towards a happy place but it feels unlikely

Mumtothenipper · 07/03/2015 22:09

Anybody watching Damien Lewis on Johnathon Ross now?

I love his voice... But it really reminds me of someone else at times and I can't think who... Roger Moore? Can't be...

icemistOBE · 07/03/2015 22:14

Yes- and I kept giggling 'the sausage'

I don't know, had a completely mentally busy day, come back on here and there are more newbies delurked. Welcome bk28 (hope you are feeling better) and percy (bizarre reviews? Intrigued?!). Come join in the wonderful madness! :)

Just catching up with everything, not read most of the new ff yet, other than the new new one! I did wonder about whether we knew that author, but my sticking point was the route the taxi took from east ham to buck house .... not the one I'd have thought a taxi would take. I know bizarre reasoning, but I think kd would check it out. I don't want to sound like I am criticising it at all, i don't mean it like that other than thinking about who could be writing, i enjoyed it! Apologies if the author is on here, I should stop thinking and just sit back and enjoy :)

fwk, that article is really interesting. It is such a strange and bizarre thought that people actually set out to write hurtful and upsetting comments, to people they don't know, and for no reason other than to cause hurt, that there must be something underlying the intent, I suppose. Very sad really. Not that that makes it easier to handle though.

pixie glad you and CJ survived the flight ok. I hope mr pixie has recovered from his long flight in the suitcase!

Good to hear from spo, glad you are still keeping an eye on us. I still miss you on here too! Are you going to come back to us?

cherin hope you are ok. Missing you on here too x

LolaKent14 · 07/03/2015 22:20

Found that FF had a very familar ring to it after reading a couple of times. The author sent me a PM after my review. Now convinced I know who it is....

Read Markab this has a lot of angst ahead.

Think I might need a bit of Zombies to lighten the evening :o)

Ilovelblue · 07/03/2015 22:28

This room in the hotel must have been designed by a tall man. The chest where the tea/coffee/kettle are is so high I can't see into the cups without standing on tiptoe!

The bath was really long and I couldn't stay upright. Had some impure thoughts re CJ along the lines of Jen's Valentine's Day ff whilst in said bath.

Had prosecco included with our meal. Was very good value.

Need to look normal now and read a magazine. My friend thinks I've been on Facebook.....!

Ilovelblue · 07/03/2015 22:30

PS great to see newcomers on here but Percy don't understand about the reviews??

apsara03 · 07/03/2015 22:38

Can't beat a glass or a bottle of prosecco. Off to bed and to catch up on ff.

Mumtothenipper · 07/03/2015 22:38

ilove CJ in the bath... What a lovely thought! I tried to write a jacuzzi scene with CJ but kept getting too flustered at the thought of it!

lola the plot thickens... Am I way out in my theory do you think? I'm sure ff was quite a straightforward place not so long ago!

LolaKent14 · 07/03/2015 22:41

I think you could be spot on Nipper

Ilovelblue · 07/03/2015 22:48

Oh yes Nipper this bath would easily accommodate me and CJ and there'd be room for a little movement too!!

percyjackson1 · 07/03/2015 22:49

Aaaahh on FF I'm Insidethedreampalace and I sometimes get carried away with some tiny aspect of a story, spend at least 24 hours thinking about it, then comment in a way that I think is funny (in my head) but in other circles could be seen as a bit ???!!!!... 'Molly is the vicar' in Nipper's story was one that springs to mind...

Rhubarb01 · 07/03/2015 22:53

Percy I knew it was you. The ....dots were a bit of a give away. Welcome. There's nothing wrong with that kind of bizarre. I love an original comment!

percyjackson1 · 07/03/2015 22:55

Yes those dots represent what's I've managed to keep in my head!

Nickel45 · 07/03/2015 22:56

ilove good luck with the looking normal bit (in the nicest possible way ... you know what I mean ....!?!)!

nip you can't just say you were writing CJ in a jacuzzi and leave it like that!!?! What a thought GrinBlush

Onlygirljen · 07/03/2015 22:56

percy how funny - I did wonder if that was you as soon as you mentioned reviews! I remember you saying something about Molly's shoes in how could I forget, and it really tickled me at the time. Stick with us, no need to lurk!

nipper I'm fine thanks. Kind of expected it to come my way at some point, seems like everyone is getting it. Forgotten about now Smile

ilove that's definitely the best kind of bath! Glad you're having a good time!

Mumtothenipper · 07/03/2015 22:59

Ah. percy I remember that, it was funny! Don't think I have the imagination to have pulled it off though! You're not alone in overthinking stories... I frequently have to remind myself it's not real!

loa. Interesting... Well there we go. Curious and curiouser. Change as good as a rest maybe?

I'm going to have to find a way to focus if I'm ever going to get this chapter finished! Maybe CJ could out me in detention for a while?

waves hello to all lurkers, old and new.

Mumtothenipper · 07/03/2015 23:20

nickle it was towards the end of thinking out loud... I got myself too tangled flustered to actually write it!

Glad you're feeling ok jem I hope all is calm in your household tonight.

Off to sleep I think... Dreams of CJ making me take detention in the Jacuzzi await!

Nickel45 · 07/03/2015 23:23

Nice thinking nip and happy dreams :)

BK28 · 07/03/2015 23:24

Thanks for the welcome! With regret due to now not being sick have to return to the R/L on Monday... at least have had the opportunity to re read a lot of FF, both old and new. With all those refreshed images of CJ the nut is not staying calm!!

I'm a bit new to this, so this feels like a meeting with people that you feel you know really well, but yet you aren't confident to speak to yet, so apologies if I don't post too often... still working it out. But having read the majority of the posts get the feeling that you are a really OK and friendly crowd!

jen your latest chapter left goose bumps and I'm in awe of the way some of you guys write... I'm in the practical not creative category, so hats off to you!! Somebody mentioned that in creative writing terms, apparently !!! are not the thing. Well where would we be without a few !!! to move things along or perhaps that was the chilled rose talking not sure?

orphan · 07/03/2015 23:44

Hello all the delurkers! Smile

Just got back from prosecco fuelled meal. Annoyingly I managed to knock a glass over ( what a waste) so dp let me have the lion's share of the bottle! Glad you like it icemist I think it's nicer than champagne and you don't feel it has to be a special occasion to drink it!

The alcohol might be fuddling my brain but lola is the implication that the new ff is really klip? Seems very bizarre if it's true and he' s reviewed himself then! What would his motive be? Dunno, but the ff world seems to be becoming rather odd.

Very sorry to hear you've got a different troll jen. Are you sure it's not rach?
