Good morning thanks for the comments on the FF sorry to put you through the mill but you know I always do a happy ending Smile

So after a strong cup of Rosabaya I am off "Seeking Assistance" in the boardroom Wink Monday morning has to be sexy scissors to start the week Blush

Paintedcherryblossoms · 01/06/2015 09:35

Have left comments on FB and reviews but I should also say on here how much I am loving reading all the other stories it was full on this weekend reading them all but very enjoyable and utterly brilliant ...so I thank you x Star Star Star Star Star Smile

I know Lola could be a hint that he's casting Grin

I don't want to spoil your fun (and it would be great if he was casting) but I think he's referring to the saying 'ne'er cast a clout till May be out'

icemistOBE · 01/06/2015 10:48

That's what I tweeted too pixie but like to keep an open mind just in case Smile

I know casting the clouts is an expression but I can't help thinking TG has said that just to keep to us a bit excited and speculating. Unfortunately, I can''t imagine they'd be casting before announcing a re-commissioning. However, I could be wrong. What do I know about it?

Onlygirljen · 01/06/2015 13:34

I think TG is a very clever man - he knows what gets everybody excited and speculating. Fingers crossed!

Bloody hell painted think the Monday morning scissoring would get the working week started with a bang...Grin

Ilovelblue · 01/06/2015 13:43

Rhubarb must admit my thoughts went along similar lines to yours.

Painted when I saw the "diagram" you'd posted, I had to close the screen pdq. I thought you were going to issue a health warning in case any of us in an office were on here!

Ilovelblue · 01/06/2015 13:56

I am of the very humble opinion that if he didn't want us to keep guessing because there IS something in the offing, he wouldn't post these cryptic little messages. He did something a while ago that made us wonder - was it when he was posting CJ/MD pictures on a Sunday night fairly recently even though it was being shown in Australia on a Thursday?

Rhubarb01 · 01/06/2015 14:31

I think there is still some possibility of a new series. The fact that the official line on the show is 'No decision' suggests that it is resting on other factors of the sort we've speculated about before.

Painted is it just an illusion/fancy of mine or does the 'gentleman' in your picture have heart shaped tatoos on his forearms?

Paintedcherryblossoms · 01/06/2015 14:37

Sorry ilove sexy scissors does bring a whole new meaning to my craft projects though Grin

I will post a warning in advance that I plan to also be "seeking assistance" tomorrow given this morning was such fun just need to assess my "position" for Tuesday....I can feel one for every day of the week coming on Grin well at least until jen posts the next instalment of her inspiring story x

Paintedcherryblossoms · 01/06/2015 14:39

He ain't no gentleman Rhu Grin

Paintedcherryblossoms · 01/06/2015 14:44

Maybe CJ didn't make it back to Bath after all ......mwah ha ha ha Grin

Onlygirljen · 01/06/2015 14:48

Just for you painted Grin

For all at work - UNSAFE IMAGE ATTACHED!!

Oops, did I kill the thread with my unsafe picture? Blush.

Epic final update from woof, what a ride it's been...Grin

Paintedcherryblossoms · 01/06/2015 18:28

Not for me jen had to dash to meeting did you have a productive day off in the end ?

Agree on the fabulous finale from woof bravo Smile

Ilovelblue · 01/06/2015 18:32

Given the unplanned interruption from my boss last week, I daren't respond to this when there were people around!

Jen that picture reminded me of something that happened in my office years ago when I was working for a massive company (a household name one with over 7,000 employees in the area). I was a secretary at the time. One of the other managers had been having a not-so-secret affair with his secretary for years. Everyone pretended not to know what was happening but would snigger behind their backs. One lunchtime, somebody walked into her office (she guarded his inner office [no euphemism] and very few people got past her) and she was sitting with a very enigmatic smile on her face like the Mona Lisa. Disturbed from his playtime, the manager scrambled to his feet from UNDER the desk, knocking his head as he did so. Their cover was totally blown after that. The story got round both sites like wildfire.

Onlygirljen · 01/06/2015 19:35

Not too bad painted, got the boring domestics covered, although I lost a fair bit of the morning to the 2yo deciding to lie rigidly on the floor of tesco and stage a sit in instead of help me do the shopping Confused. Could have done without that! Otherwise, a grand day!

ilove that's hilarious and you've reminded me of one of my (many) worst ever working moments. When I was a skint student, I used to work behind the bar in a nightclub. It was the pits but the tips were good as the place was packed with footballers most weekends. One fairly quiet night I was serving a guy who really looked like he was having a funny turn - he had ordered a drink but was making the weirdest facial expressions. He kept looking down, and I stupidly looked over the bar to discover a girl on her knees in front of him. And let's just say she wasn't admiring the sticky floor!! I didn't live that one down for a long time!!! BlushBlush

Rhubarb01 · 01/06/2015 19:37

Brilliant ending woof. Sat here giggling and getting strange looks. Can't help thinking there will be plenty more material for a sequel before long! Nice to see the Musketeers getting a bit of the action. Poor old Porthos. Never mind some of the ladies on the Musketeers thread like him - he'll have to mooch over there for company.

Rhubarb01 · 01/06/2015 20:15

I know we think we're all a bit crazy but I just popped over to read some of the thread on Loo Etiquette - just because it caught my eye at the top of the page - and I have been laughing my head off at two hundred plus posts on the do's and don'ts of toilet cleaning, using or not using toilet brushes and etiquette in other people's houses. It is a very emotive subject apparently and some people getting quite worked up. I will never worry about this thread again - sophisticated - definitely!

Richtea19 · 01/06/2015 20:32

Thank you woof for your mad crazy world of FF, I've had a super-crap long day at work and you have made me giggle so much, thank you!

painted love your scissor photo and Jen filing cabinet one was hilarious.

Now for the G&T, really shouldn't on a Monday, but needs must!

orphan · 01/06/2015 20:42

woof on reading your inspired update, I hereby award you the LOLS (Laureate Of Laughter & Smut). This honour obliges you to tattoo LOLS across your icebergs and provide a ff update on every special occasion or every two weeks (whichever comes first).

Ditto shitty day richtea. I'm just about to make a very tricky phone call to a close friend which I don't think she'll appreciate. Sad Why is dp always away when things go pear shaped??

Richtea19 · 01/06/2015 20:49

Oh dear orphan hope it goes ok x

pixieg1rl · 01/06/2015 20:51

I went off in search of the toilet etiquette thread rhu but got distracted by a 'I found photos of my husband in a jacuzzi with another woman, is he having an affair?' (Highly likely) thread and another one on vaginal dryness.

Ilovelblue · 01/06/2015 20:57

Rhubarb out of curiosity, I've just read that same thread. Well, I read the first couple of pages, I got a bit bored after that. It does indeed make our musings seem ultra-sophisticated. Sophisticated silliness is too mundane a title for us when you compare it with toilet cleaning!
