Is it a full moon? My 4yo finally asleep half an hour ago.

Feel better its not just me. Going to gorge on baileys and chocolate!

I can only do anything when they're all in bed! but my 3 year old twin boys start nursery next week so hopefully I can have much more time to write! It's so nerve-wracking writing but I'm worrying a bit that there's little details in future chapters in my story that other people already have in theirs so I would hate look like I'm copying so I might re-think some bits..

This is probably really sad but last night I read a few threads from when the last episode aired and I loved how soo excited you all were. SPOfficer was hilarious too. The best was the day of the Radio1 interview in Nov and you guys were trying desperately to hear the interview inbetween doing school runs! I cant remember who but one of the best was when someone was trying to get their kids out of bed that day quickly by blasting Radio1 and shouting 'Get up or you'll get my regulation combat boot six lace holes up your arses'!!

Hi kelly. Really glad you've made the change from reader to poster! I love your story and am intrigued as to how it will develop.

We miss spo and wish he'd come back to us, but he's probably in top secret talks with Hollywood over the filming of his zombie masterpieces.

Has ice (I get the impression when I've been reading she's the MI5 bod) seen any pics or updates about Ben recently?? I saw the pics when he was having birthday lunch with his friend Claire in May. I like to know what he's up to (I'm not a stalker honestly)!! Has he filmed Fleabag yet or I wonder Lucky Man?

Welcome kelly (to the madness, that is now part of all our lives!)

I had a sneaky under the radar trip to London this afternoon. I finished work at lunchtime and then whizzed straight up there. I just fancied a mouch around the shops. How sad I am, i "actually" thought I would bump into BA. I'm walking down Reagent Street planning what I'm going to say to him. I really do live in an imaginary world!

Anyway back to RL, kids driving me bonkers and the only way I can see out of it is Pimms... It's ok as it has 5 of your fruit and veg allowance

Haha. That's something I would definitely do. In Asda sometimes I pretend that I might bump into him and what I would say (even though I live in Newcastle and nowhere near London!). I honestly don't know how my life will go back to normal if there is no S2. I'll always wonder what CJ/Bens doing! (My husband has the same light blue shirt that CJ wears in the restaurant scene in Episode 5 and I look at him wistfully when he's wearing it and he says 'Are you thinking I'm CJ?)

Ooh kelly have you 'persuaded' your husband to act out the restaurant scene whilst wearing the shirt? Tried cooking a meal that included cabbage?

Made him walk with a limp?

kelly at least when you get DH to act out the resturant scene, when you get him upstairs you might get a kiss or more!!!

Well we're kind of like the programme in that one of our son's called Sam and my husband called James (well it's not exactly Charles) but I've been trying and trying to get him to hire an army outfit complete with vallon and toy gun but to no avail. I'll keep trying him!!

I know (teehee) and I'll make sure I don't get any cold sores! I was saying to DH that if there is a series 2 and if LT gets a cold sore before any kissing scenes she needs to get some Zovirax esp if its winter! He thinks I'm mental.

Well my little bleeders have only just gone to bed (they're a bit older than 8 to be fair) so only just regained control of the iPad. Just enough time to say massive welcome to Kel and whatever is said about me and CJ, or Poldark, or the Strike Back boys (and Max), Rupert occasionally whenever orph does some damage, or Crixus...it's probably true. Off to bed now, just made some cocoa for Scott and Stonebridge (and Max) coz they're gagging for it.

I'd try out the hospital scene (obvs in your own bed) but do what we'd all have done in Molly's place and pin him to the bed for some QS. Your dp might like that scenario!

That was to kelly of course. woof doesn't need any instruction on pinning males to the bed.

Kelly sorry I didn't equate you with the ff Kelly, I was dipping in this at the same time as about to have a shower. Too much information probably! I loved that chapter. I've stayed in Harpenden quite a few times so I could visualise Molly on the platform waiting for the London train. In fact I'll be there again in early August! Now if CJ/BA were to be on the same train...........

In our other CJ world, I am his tour manager (you must have read all about his exploits with us all) and BK has been his personal protection officer. CJ is resting at the moment - no wonder really, I think we have worn him out - but he's due to start working again shortly as he's escorting pixie to a wedding and then I am taking him to Surrey for a few days. If you'd like your turn, you only need to say! He's not been up to the North East as yet. He's a very well trained houseguest but does have a tendency to sulk if he doesn't get his own way. Good with animals and children too!

I was at Bailbrook House in Bath where they filmed the restaurant scene. Sadly, I was with a female friend and not BA but I was over the moon to sit at the same table where it was all filmed. Our fairy godmother Nickel sorted that for me!

OO, a bit of QS would go down a treat (pardon the pun) I've only been on this thread an hour and I'm already getting smutty!! What you guys doing to me? lol.

Evening all, welcome Kelly, I also lurked for ages before crawling out of he woodwork to join this mad crew and I haven't looked back although my DOH has caught snippets and decided I'm having a wild lesbian affair

My 5 year old went to bed half an hour ago and I was glugging the white wine out of the bottle at about 8pm! Too bad! There were special circumstances though...

Sometime back in the day a work friend of my DOH's facebooked a picture of some poor gymnast doing the splits on the bars when her leotard did actually part company in the naughty area. There was an audible snap (as opposed to snack or crack - although crack might be appropriate in this instance) and she was horribly exposed, legs wide apart. He wrote some comment which annoyed his girlfriend so much that she came onto facebook to tell him off. That part was funny. The gymnast part wasn't...

Wow Ilove. Having CJ as a house guest would be ammmazing!! I would definitely parade him around in front of the neighbours! I've visualised him doing loads of stuff in the house. Hoovering, hanging out my washing, driving an Audi car while I'm in the passenger seat while in full battle dress! all the while I'm watching his tanned forearms and his look of concentration!

Hi Kelly welcome to the lunacy that reigns on here!!
Loved the opening chapter of your story... full admiration to you for having the guts to not only put pen to paper but to press launch!!

Funny day at here at BK villas - just randomly sat here and completed a job application in under 2 hours, didn't realise that there was actually a job I wanted to apply for until 7pm this evening - closing date was tonight, bit of a last minute thing.

Will be checking CJ out over the weekend to see how his R&R with Mummsie is going - popping along the canal from Bradford on Avon on my bike to see him!! Just need to confirm with ilove the revised itinerary for the summer programme of visits, so that I can sort the upmarket transport he ahs come to expect!!

Oh god, DS woke early and is being a right little stinker. I hope the rest of the late to bed kids are behaving better. I'm going to practice those special mothering skills woof has been promoting

Ugh pixie mine were up just after six too. How come I need more sleep than they do. Off to a football tournament, need to leave in half hour ... Want to be asleep!

Morning. Off to work today. Lovely and sunny here at the moment

Must be something in the air, both of mine awake at the crack of dawn and in stinking moods. Cbeebies and iPad being utilised heavily at the moment - wonderful mothering skills here.
