Well hello cherin! Welcome back! You managed to sort out a house move then by the sounds of it.

cherin · 23/09/2015 20:48

Not quite yet..but we purchased last Friday, and hope to move in next week. Bloody expensive!!!! I am not convinced it was smart move, BUT the catchment area issue should be sorted. Whoever said that the first kid is the most expensive, didn't quite see the full picture
:-)
So any news of our favourite captain? Whoever is taking him prisoner this week?
(Btw I saw FFTMC on a long haul flight- nice!! I like this Matthias!!)

Ilovelblue · 23/09/2015 20:51

CJ has been all over the place cherin. pixie took him to Kenya, I've had him (so to speak) in Amsterdam, Edinburgh and Surrey, ice took him to Ireland and Canada and he's been up and down England and Scotland most of the summer. He's resting now..........

He was a great hit with the Americans and Japanese in Edinburgh. He enjoyed posing in his kilt which Richtea and orphan fitted him out with.

pixieg1rl · 23/09/2015 20:52

2 hours later, Tamal's still erect! Phew!

Hello cherin!

cherin · 23/09/2015 20:54

A CJ in kilt might be a sight to behold...a mix between OG and outlander (but with an accent I can understand a bit better :-)

MaddieMoo82 · 23/09/2015 20:59

Guess he has got to keep busy whilst the missus is on strictly kelly

DP is watching football Angry so recording dr foster and GBBO and tamals creamy horn

Richtea19 · 23/09/2015 21:00

Hi cherin kids continue to be expensive!! Good luck with everything though.

Yehhhh Tamal's stayed rigid.

orphan · 23/09/2015 21:04

Yay cherin welcome back! Congrats on house purchase /imminent move.

Glad you can see the charms of Matthias. It's worth checking out his other films.Wink

orphan · 23/09/2015 21:07

Am going to watch GBBO on catchup but glad to hear Tamal's kept his horn up. I'd like him or Nadia (?) to win. Not Ian who's too smug.

pixieg1rl · 23/09/2015 21:10

Dr Foster time. Takes notes...

pixieg1rl · 23/09/2015 21:22

I was about to say I didn't fancy Bertie Carvel, when MrP pointed out that he looks a lot like him. He's does rather. Oops.

Nickel45 · 23/09/2015 21:31

I'm still on GBBO! Waiting for kids to sleep before watching Dr F, need to give it full attention to work it all out!

Hi cherin :) hope the packing is going well xx

cherin · 23/09/2015 21:56

Considering I also had to go back to full time (double mortgage!), no the packing is going at half the speed it should go...but what can I do? I am exhausted at night!! And no, there's no CJ trapped in my cellar, I swear it's only work...
I don't even have time for the bake off! Luckily there's the iplayer :-)

orphan, which other Mathias movie should I go for?? Suggestions, please!
(On the way back from the same long haul flight I resorted to Frozen!! But I skipped most of the singing ;-) trouble of having generated only boys is that you lack excuses to watch Disney movies with leading female characters....)

KellyHb · 23/09/2015 22:05

Hi cherin hope your move goes well.

Oo pix lucky you if your Mr P looks like Bertie Carvel. Just watched this week's episode. I won't spoil it for people who want to see it but really disappointed in one of the characters but ahh...its difficult saying more without letting the cat out the bag. I'll wait until other people comment.

Well done ilove on your total for today's cakes. Star

Onlygirljen · 23/09/2015 22:08

All I can say is lucky pixie

Really enjoyed Dr Foster, it totally messed around with the way I thought about a few of the characters!

pixieg1rl · 23/09/2015 22:36

It's pretty much just the beard. Their noses and jawline are very different.

Ilovelblue · 23/09/2015 22:52

Kelly it livened up a bit this week did Dr Foster. Some smut in there, not sure whether you would call it quality or not - depends whether you liked the accountant guy or not.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments on our cake sale.

Off to bed now.

KellyHb · 23/09/2015 23:05

I feel a bit miffed about DF this week. Some of the theories I've read about what could've happened this week would've been brilliant if it did but I think this episode was a bit meh. Could be a standard affair story now but it could pick up. It's got 2 more episodes to go. Starting to not like Simon.

ilove I think Simon's a better looker for me than accountant guy. SF may be better in bed.

KellyHb · 23/09/2015 23:18

BA's following someone new on Twitter but I can't see any new names. Any ideas ice?

icemistOBE · 24/09/2015 06:46

Morning.

Welcome back cherin hope the move isn't too stressful

jel just noticed he's following someone new. Think the person he's followed is restricting who can see what they do on Twitter. Or BA has restricted it- power of the blue tick!
Went to bed early last night. I've not watched Dr Foster as was away for first 2 eps. Avoiding any spoilers as I may catch up on it this weekend

cherin Suite Francaise is good to see Matthias in uniform (albeit German officer one) and Rust and Bone if you don't mind him bulked up a bit more.

Have a lot of TV catching up to do - will try to watch Dr Foster tonight. Judging by the trailers last week I assume she gets under the covers with the slimy neighbour. I'm enjoying the series but none of the men appeal lookswise. As I mentioned before to kellys disgust, Bertie will forever be Miss Trunchbull to me.

Pic 3 is particularly sublime ice. Smile

pixieg1rl · 24/09/2015 07:27

I think Dr F is still full of ambiguity Kelly. And what about those (presumably negative) remarks on the 'rate your GP' site? I don't think that bit of the story was thrown in to fill a gap, I think there's lots going on we don't see, we only see things from Gemma's point of view.

cjwoofwoof · 24/09/2015 09:07

Pic 3 my absolute fave ice - it's the headset scrunching the curls and the furrowed brow that always get what's left of my ovaries self-combusting all over the shop; well hellooo Captain Bossy, yum

cjwoofwoof · 24/09/2015 09:15

I'm struggling with Dr Foster I'm afraid. Bertie Barebotty doesn't do anything for me and don't even go there with the smarmy, oily neighbour. And poor Surannes looking soooo old these days. Too much in-depth calm conversation and talking to your husband like he's your Bank Manager when she should be screaming like a banshee, ripping up his clothes and slapping the girlfriends face for starters. I think it's one of those dramas where it's all in her head and we'll find out in the last episode she's got schizophrenia or some such nonsense and kills him when he's totally innocent, bah!

Nickel45 · 24/09/2015 11:27

Love your summary woof! I haven't watched last night's yet, but just can't get past the neighbour being all smarmy when he was in Hustle. Makes me think he's a bad 'un!
