ice sorry to hear little one poorly. At least you can snuggle up today. Its pouring down with rain and gusty wind here today. Day off today too, but I'm picking up MIL from heathrow. She's been in Austrialia for 6 weeks (not long enough!!). Once I'm home it's a housework, sit down with FF and hopefully finish YHMAHELLO..... It's taken me this long to read it.. I wonder why?!!!

BK28 · 26/03/2015 08:09

ice thanks for that toe curling picture!
Sorry to hear about the little one, but the weather does give you a reason for snuggling up and being cosy.

Morning Ladies! Been absent for a few days due to RL. Have only managed a quick skim but can see you've been busy. On the subject of super fans I do feel that there is one small difference between us and some of those out there - apart from one very modest request for an autograph ice and a couple of cards sent politely to the agent, we haven't attempted to go near the embodiment of our fictional crush! (as long as you ignore the carol concert - clears throat rapidly)

On the mildly exciting front I have to report that an army officer in full combats came into my place of work yesterday! From my extensive knowledge of rank insignia gained through watching BS42 I was quickly able to establish he was a major. In the interests of research I then conducted an analysis of the low slung combats effect and have to report the following conclusion:

The degree of 'low slungness' is directly proportional to the length of the wearer's torso!

It definitely appears that all trousers are worn in exactly the same place but whether you look like CJ or Simon Cowell depends on the variable factor of torso length. Sadly my major could not compete with CJ but was a very nice chap nonetheless.

One autograph request that looks like it will never be answered Sad

Sorry about your little boy ice. It's tipping it down here so make the most of the day off. Lots of OG watching maybe.

Rhubarb very impressed with recognising army ranks! You see, all the TV watching has been useful after all! Your research on low slung trousers is above and beyond. I hope he didn't notice you eyeing him up?

Rhubarb01 · 26/03/2015 08:38

I made sure he had his back to me before I had a really good stare!!

icemistOBE · 26/03/2015 08:43

Miserable here too. He stopped being sick about 7pm- Had some breakfast this morning and so far stayed down.

Hoping to watch another episode. Haven't watched them in ages so loving watching them to pick out fave scenes. Must do a blister one today

ice at least the sick might explain the washing machine tantrum, his cloud however, is our silver lining!

Nickel45 · 26/03/2015 09:37

rhubarb you lucky girl :)

ice so sorry your littlie is sick, hope he is OK soon. Mine was ill over the weekend, but they bounce back really quickly, don't they. Perfect excuse to have a lovely day snuggled on the sofa watching OG and eating chocolates, I reckon (obviously you have to eat all the chocolates ... not good for a poorly tummy in children!!)

LolaKent14 · 26/03/2015 09:39

Ice those clips are brilliant. You are so clever probably need an additional bank of screens to do this editing.

Raining here, off to the gym this morning. Think I am finally up to date on the wonderful FF. So might actually read a few chapters of the Grisham I had on the go for four months!

Richard III burial this morning wonder if there will be a military presence? might look in....

icemistOBE · 26/03/2015 09:44

Yes, I did think ooh I can make some more clips Grin especially with my mum visiting from sat - I wont have as much time to do them. So while he's awake- any requests??

Ice The scene when he sits on his bed with the Rosabaya capsules and looks out.

Sympathise with the sick bug thing Ice. Although my kids are a bit older now and these things tend (said with extreme hesitation) to wane a bit with age, if I hear one is going around at school it always strikes me with fear and brings back memories of running out of any clean bedding and the washing machine almost collapsing under the strain and one particularly horrible occasion when my younger DD lost control of herself half-way down the stairs. I shall say no more - you can imagine! If any of them are poorly in that way my line of defence is to basically barely eat for at least 72 hours in a vain attempt to keep it at bay or mitigate it - sometimes its worked. I don't know if you saw the advertised blog of the day on the subject which certainly brought back memories.

I finally caught up with Poldark and BS42 last night. I think AT's physique translated better on screen than from the clips. I found it fairly acceptable although the hair needs tidying - I said before he needs the old Ross Poldark's velvet bows! On BS42 quite liking the new ATO. I think you mentioned her Ilove. I was a bit worried she'd be a caricature - the stressy, head-girl type officer they constantly take the piss out of but they've been clever and there's a bit more depth and grit to her. I liked her telling Bird exactly why she shouldn't be questioning her decisions - go girl!

icemistOBE · 26/03/2015 11:37

need to wait till I can add todays clips... flippin' limits

Ooh ice I'd forgotten that pic this morning (er, how??) complete with headset, messy curls, stern face AND helmet under arm. Might gonna need smelling salts, swoon Grin

Off to catchup on ff , it's all so good at the moment I don't even bother reading the newspaper these days never mind a book

Ilovelblue · 26/03/2015 12:21

cjwoof I keep thinking about cancelling my Saturday paper as it often gets to Sunday before the actual news bit is read (and often therefore out of date) and I am still ploughing through the supplements halfway through the week. Who was it who mentioned You Had Me At Hello? 'fraid to say I am still ploughing through that as well. It's not really grabbed my attention as much as I had hoped it would.

cjwoofwoof · 26/03/2015 12:36

Ditto ilove most of the time I only see the front page headline of the daily paper and never actually open it...probably should stop buying it really!

lola and Rhu epic chapters as per usual. They're so easy to read and get involved with [doffs tricorn Poldark hat]. Never tire of wanting more chapters so double away!!

Ooh thanks ice you're stirring memories I'd long forgotten. Rough removal of Headset - oooh yes! and Get in That Tent and Sort Me Blisters Head Nod - yes, yes! Dawesy tongue trap and Lip Ooh Shape - yes, yes, yes!! How can one man be so totally adorable in only 10 second shots? It's not humanly possible. Now where did I put my wafty thing for wafting...? Need to cool down for Banished tonight before Mr Major Nasty but Hot Pony Tail sets my hormones into overdrive what again?
