Fantas chapter jen so looking forward to the next one

Sorry ice crossed posts!

Loved your latest update Jen. I hope you are planning on throwing Brains and Julia together in the near future.

Thanks nickel, ice and pixie, you're very kind.

pixie I couldn't possibly comment

I couldn't wait until tomorrow. I just watched episodes 4 and 5 back to back!!

Loved the ending and reunion with Bashira!

We've been spoilt this evening with lots of new chapters to read.

Amy idea jen when the next chapter will be ready?

Glad you enjoyed it nativity it's a brilliant series

Just read greenstuffs latest chapter, she's good! OGA are gagging to get her on there!!

nativity to finish what I was saying earlier ... Stories by cjcollective are (mostly) stories that we on here have written together, some are ones where we have all contributed to a chapter and the latest one all the chapters were written by different people. I say "we", I haven't contributed anything, but feel part of it, and am very,very proud of the stories. There is also a really hilarious zombie one (yes, really) which is written by a guy called SPO. He used to be on here and still reads everything we say, and incorporates a lot of it into his zombie story and who we would like to come back and join us ... at some point!. Definitely worth reading, even if you don't like zombies, it is so funny you'll never watch OG again in the same way.

nickel I agree - I'm loving The Long Weekend, very feasible, he can't be perfect all the time!

I love that story too. We'll have to ask her to come on here

One of you authors could contact her and tell her how wonderful (crazy?! same thing, right?!) we are and how much fun you have! .
(I don't think she has a FB account at the mo, from the sounds of it).

Back home now and absolutely shattered (or shat as dp misheard me say). Am going to go to bed and catch up on the ff.

Oh, please someone persuade greenstuff to join us. Her stories are brilliant, particularly the latest.

I know must of you haven't continued with watching Wolf Hall (and I know cjwoof's opinion!) but the final episode is worth seeing if only for the heart breaking Anne Boleyn scene at the end. The Sausage was loathsome of course, but I do think he's meant to be. (Just relieved we were spared naked sausage.)

kezia I'd try reading your copy of Wolf Hall; I've started it and have to say it's really good although I might have to dispute the tag line on the cover saying 'the most gripping book you'll ever read'. Clearly they haven't read some of the OG ff!

new chapter from SPO

The possible RL OG obsessive from my office was a non-starter. She had seen my weekend photos on Facebook and asked what Bath was like..... excellent lead-in for me! I confessed about the OG connection and she said that she'd loved it too, in fact been obsessed with finding out what had happened after episode 4 and wasn't Lacey Turner good? I casually admitted that I had found Ben Aldridge so attractive and she agreed wholeheartedly and then changed the subject! Since I was giving her a lift, she could have at least indulged my fantasy!

orphan was it you who asked what pudding I had at BH? Here's the photo.

Off to see Fifty Shades tomorrow with somebody I used to work with. She has seen it already but seems not to mind seeing it a second time.

ilove yes, it was me. Looks delicious and def posh!

OK, making my way through the ff and have read whajeb and onlygirl. Both brilliant of course and what cliff hangers! I'm so tired though, that I think I'm going to call it a night and read the rest in the morning otherwise I won't do them justice.

I am also back from an overnight stay at the Bailbrook and managed to sit at 'the' table - I ambushed the bemused restaurant manager and showed him where we wanted to sit. It was ridiculously exciting to be in the restaurant and it looks even lovelier at night with the subtle lighting. My long suffering husband didn't have to wear a CJ mask or learn the dialogue - I am word perfect with both parts!

Wycombe did you get any gossip on the filming? Our waitresses and the reception staff were foreign so not interested in the filming.

Good morning

Last full day with CJ. He was quite the distraction in work yesterday his stuff is freshly washed jen and Bergen nearly packed to set off to you tomorrow.

I must set aside some time to read Our Zombie Girl from the start again. Can't believe it's got 30 chapters!!

Did you get to read any FF nativity?

Crikey forgot the photos, CJ distracted me

icemist slightly disappointed that you didn't post some photos of your time with CJ, or is the middle pic one of yours...?

Also, I'd like to know when he's coming my way? Once he makes his way south again, then I think I'd be before cherin as I'm just a bit north of London. Not that I'm impatient for my turn at all...

Great pics again icemist.

Bet your colleagues were very envious when you arrived in work with a certain handsome soldier in tow? Did he get to try out the swivel chair? Did he see your bank of monitors and tracking devices?

I don't think mumsnet would let me post those photos orphan

This is an example of how he looked

ilove I had to pretend I actually had a proper job but boardroom and swivel chair were used and headset...I never knew CJ could be so inventive

You'll be after me orphan. I do like the idea of CJ heading south
