Dream on ilove. I haven't ironed in 5 years.

Holiday is going very well so far. Off to meet up with a very old friend who I haven't seen for about 20 years tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to seeing her. Weather has been shocking but it normally clears in the afternoons, so we've been out and about a fair bit.

My #sternface tweet.... For those not on there. TG retweeted so funny.

Twitter team have done an amazing job under the command of our CO IceMist.

Roll on Sep20 now....

lola above and beyond Smile is this what prompted the stern face hashtag? (been out of the loop for only 24hrs and so much has happened). Clearly need to stay more focused...

LolaKent14 · 25/08/2015 23:26

It was a team effort headed up by Ice. Fab couple of days!

orphan · 25/08/2015 23:41

Gosh being a twitter virgin I don't really understand how it works. Do you mean BA's tweet was in response to a series of tweets by you lot?! Job well done, if so. Smile

orphan · 25/08/2015 23:47

mooj hope you're both feeling better. Sounds like a blooming awful day.

richtea yes, there's def a bit of a cream teas tummy under that white tshirt. I think he'll need some intensive workouts and I'm ready and willing to help before series 2.

icemistOBE · 26/08/2015 07:00

Morning

We would say so orphan On Mon I posted the picture I did on here, FB and Twitter tagged TG who then tweeted for more info and then tweeted BA as well - saying because of the pic I used that Ben should smile more SmileWe then all had a massive tweet session getting people on board from Aus,NZ, Holland, France etc We kept it up yesterday too and then BA tweeted!

And all from convos on here and FB about a watch-along Grin
So it's for us all on here too Smile

That's a great story - well done the A Team!! And good on Ben for responding (btw, what is that second picture? can't make it out and don't think it's been on here before?) I have Twitter but don't really know how to use it - I wasn't even sure how to favourite BAs tweet, any help appreciated (Teens just scoff and run in the other direction at the mention of middle aged frump using twitter, which they all turned to after us lot took over facebook!).

Morning. Dizzy I'm the same as you about Twitter. I have an account but don't know how to use it.

ice I understand why the Aussies and Kiwis will be interested in OG/CJ/BA but French and Dutch too??? I wonder if BA realises just what his popularity is like? Do you think his agency keeps him updated?

Ilovelblue · 26/08/2015 08:06

Knowing how useless HH seem to be, I guess the answer to that is probably no.

orphan · 26/08/2015 08:43

Fab work ice and fellow tweeters. (Don't know the collective term for tweeters). That's an amazing result considering BA's usual silence.

I'm still in bed, listening to the radio and having a cuppa; trying to make the most of it before I start in the real world of a fulltime job next week...Wondering if I can do a Withnail and run into the staffroom crying "I've started a job by mistake! "...

KellyHb · 26/08/2015 09:01

Morning all.

Off to gym this morning once DH has come back from doctors. Actually one twin's very lethargic this morning. Not eating, lying around, temp etc. Given Calpol-see how he goes.

I'm nearing the the end of A Twist of Fate book by Demelza Hart. Very smutty. Put it this way, I'm going to bed with a huge smile on my face. If only I had CJ here to practice the moves I'm reading about on. Smile

I'll be thinking of you next week orph. I'm sure the job will go well. Is it the admin side or teaching assist side you'll be doing? I can't remember if you said.

MaddieMoo82 · 26/08/2015 09:18

Morning all. I too have no idea about Twitter. Can just manage Facebook and mumsnet. Shed a tear this morning as dog dropped a hard plastic ball on my iPad and smashed the screen :-( was a gift 3 years so hoping I can get it repaired. Have ironing coming out of everywhere but keep getting distracted by JA FF.... Not getting anything done.
Amazing work from all your guys to get BA tweeting I'm well impressed.

KellyHb · 26/08/2015 09:23

Hope you iPad gets fixed Maddie. I would be near suicidal if anything to my tablet. I'm on it constantly.

orphan · 26/08/2015 09:35

TA kelly and not army TA unfortunately - no combats needed.

Watched the film Suite Francaise last night with a smockless Matthias Schoenaerts yum. Woof i know you're a fan of his. Big bonus - he played the piano and that in my eyes is a surefire winner. I'm giving Rupe a break and getting Matthias round to tinkle on my ivories.

LolaKent14 · 26/08/2015 09:56

Ahh Matthias

KellyHb · 26/08/2015 10:01

Having you as my TA orph if I was still at school would be fab!! I would getting you to make me laugh all day. Even though I'd probably end up in detention. Confused Do they even do detention these days??

A vision of watching CJ play the piano naked is something that would definitely tinkle my ivories. Grin

pixieg1rl · 26/08/2015 10:09

Lovey Matthias [sigh].

How's your DD doing orphan? Has she rusted away in all this rain?

Dizzydots · 26/08/2015 10:20

Thanks ice I'll give it a whirl and get drawn in so I get even less done than I do at the moment I too would be forlorn without my iPad. maddie was that your pooch's way of telling you to leave the tablet (BA/CJ) alone!

orphan · 26/08/2015 10:31

Yes lola Ahhh, indeed.Smile

Dd has braved the sea several times pixie (said it's cold even in a wetsuit; think bikinis been ditched). Very sporadic communication from her as mobile signal is iffy where they are.

Richtea19 · 26/08/2015 10:47

Brilliant Twitter stuff, I'm on it but don't really know what I'm doing.

You will be brilliant Orphan as long as they don't put you in the naughty corner!!

Crappy weather today! Currently at our local shopping centre in Clarks..... Ticket number 31 and its on 16....

pixieg1rl · 26/08/2015 11:02

I did that yesterday Richtea, I got a fitting immediately which never happens

pixieg1rl · 26/08/2015 12:51

Hanging out at the beach. Plenty of yummy surfer types in various states of getting undressed from their tight wetsuits Wink
