Er... er.... no to be honest? Are you winding me up?

Will have a go at updating our handbook. Any suggestions for extra material? Don't think we should put any derogatory references in about MK. We need to be mindful of any future discovery of our threads by Graham Norton's researchers.....

Forgot to say but during our lunch, the Red Arrows came shooting past!

moojangles · 05/07/2015 19:02

Can't beat the reds.
ice thanks for that pic, soothing my soul and distracting me from my swamp of a house & the fact that my feet may never forgive me for forcing them into heels for 2 days. MIL behaviour shocking at wedding, she is above and beyond CJ standard for sulking. Lovely Cotswold village christening today.

moojangles · 05/07/2015 19:05

Alka seltzer? Missed that one but I think I've worked it out?!Blush

KellyHb · 05/07/2015 19:52

Yes BK there was a ciggie in her hand in the shot behind the plane. In the odd tweet from a couple of years ago LT mentioned smoking menthol cigarettes.

ilove glad you're having a nice time. I love the Lakes. My family used to have static caravan at Pooley Bridge when I was younger. Plus i got engaged next to Lake Ullswater.

woof I had to laugh at you talking about the woman with the spotty top on who looks behind her in the restaurant scene. She's like 'I'm an extra for 2 minutes and I'm gonna own it!'

dizzy yip I can't wait until the kids are older and I can actually maybe have a life Smile

pixieg1rl · 05/07/2015 20:00

We were all curious about the how of alka seltzer mooj, luckily woof is the Maggie Philbin of this group and is conducting exhaustive trials.

Ilovelblue · 05/07/2015 20:23

Go on mooj what set off the sulks?

moojangles · 05/07/2015 20:28

Any event where she isn't the centre of attention generally-specific to this event...being asked not wear same colour as bridesmaids or brides mother, not doing the cake (she did ours & it was hideous), seat at meal being in the wrong place. Highlight was when she sat on a bench as it was hot & she needed a rest as we were doing family pics but we could do them without her. DH told her off at that point.

pixieg1rl · 05/07/2015 20:41

God mooj, my mum is a mere apprentice in the sulking stakes by comparison.

moojangles · 05/07/2015 20:45

We take bets beforehand on how bad she will be. She didn't play her trump card of feeling ill and needing to leave though!

pixieg1rl · 05/07/2015 20:51

My mum has been known to hospitalise herself when someone in the house has been more ill than her. No one can out ill my mum.

moojangles · 05/07/2015 20:53

Sounds like a kindred spirit

BK28 · 05/07/2015 21:48

Poor you mooj she sounds really like the MIL from hell... but at least your DH is a goodun and actually mans up and confronts her!! Be proud of him!!
Hope your feet soon recover!!

KellyHb · 05/07/2015 22:19

I've made 2 little discoveries tonight folks and one involves one seriously hot looking BA.

Simon Lennon (Brains) favourited a tweet I sent him wishing him good luck on a 10k type thing he's running next week. He favourites ones off people all the time but I'm quite happy with my little one.

Plus on Instagram found a gorgeous pic of BA taken around July last year. He's sitting in a beer garden wearing his usual back to front baseball cap on and a hideous Egyptian style top but he's still got his beautiful tan still from SA! He's about to text on what I think is a white IPhone. He's sitting with that Rose Leslie and that Kit Harrington from GOT but BA's talking to Kit. I think Rose and Kit were dating.

Anyway lovely photo. BA = seriously hot Grin

Ilovelblue · 05/07/2015 22:43

Prosecco on a Sunday night is very decadent. Either it will make me fall asleep instantly or I'll keep having to get up for the loo!

Weather looks ok for tomorrow so a walk round Elterwater and along the river is on the cards. Nothing too high level!

Kelly have to say I loved your last chapter. Is CJ going north of the border? We can testify that he can wear a kilt with aplomb. Mind you Rhubarb and Richtea did scare him sh*tless with their measuring!

Rhubarb01 · 05/07/2015 23:05

Ooh I never touched the man Ilove wasn't it Nickel or Orphan?

Ilovelblue · 05/07/2015 23:07

It's the prosecco....oops! Yes it was orphan!

KellyHb · 05/07/2015 23:27

Thanks ilove ah can't say where he's going. You'll have to wait and see.

Although the thought of CJ in a kilt never crossed my mind when I wrote it. It definitely is now though Grin

Morning, off to work. Debating whether or not to bring my headphones to watch ep 2 on the way....

Morning all! BK I've seen a few shots where LT has had ciggie in hand, you're right. Who knows why we didn't get the love scenes we wanted, maybe the team thought it wasn't in keeping with the rest of the show, although I seem to remember Molly getting some reasonably graphic action in the pilot.

ilove I'm off to the lakes next week, hope you enjoyed yourself!

Brilliant update from dance overnight btw - have to say I'm throughly looking forward to the next as well Grin

cjwoofwoof · 06/07/2015 10:21

Morning! Thankfully I mastered the Alka Seltzer/San Pellegrino rocket as BK instructed so can safely say ice you can throw in The Look anytime you like as I've got a perfect antidote that is up to the correct level of required reaction Grin

Where is orphan ? I'm sure she wouldn't want to be left behind in this vital development of CJ fantasy. Maybe Ruperts whisked her away on that non- wifi holiday and is keeping her busy...

cjwoofwoof · 06/07/2015 12:38

Blimmin brilliant ff update from Dancey - just love Molly's family and Merv spoiling the romance.

Jen maybe BA refused to kiss LT if she had Fag Ash Lil breath, have you thought of that? Maybe he's very particular over who he locks lips with; maybe it's written in his contract - no tongues or bed scenes Sad

KellyHb · 06/07/2015 13:16

Hi folks. Finally got 2 minutes to myself to have a sit down.

woof oo I hope that's not the case. In pics, I saw BA snogging that Kenna in Reign and it was such a nice kiss. I wish he he did that to Molly. It must've been one hell of a cold sore Confused

I really could do with some OG news this week. I wonder if the castings all been sorted yet?

pixieg1rl · 06/07/2015 15:32

I would just like to reassure BA that I don't smoke, should Tony Grounds change his mind about series 2 and want to write about the challenges faced by a dumpy 40 year mum settling into her new career in the army. I also don't get cold sores,so we're all clear for lots of snogging and more once this infection clears up

KellyHb · 06/07/2015 16:11

pixie unfortunately I must confess that I have been known to have a cold sore in the past but as soonap as you get tingle, you put on Zovirax-sorted! That's totally what LT should've done and we might have a snog\passion scene Sad

Has anyone seen the fab drawing a lady's done of CJ?? Its so amazing.I've asked her to draw one of CJ and Molly. If we're not given a snog\passion scene if there is a cameo scene, wouldn't it be great to have a smut storyboard to stare at!! Grin

cjwoofwoof · 06/07/2015 16:30

pix I too am a non- smoker but alas am prone to the odd bout of herpes. But on the plus side this too would not affect CJ kissing me on the mouth...
