Think it might be a major hint of who is in series 2

Ilovelblue · 20/11/2015 19:42

I know I'm being a bit thick, but what does Guinness have to do with all this? Is there another clue in there?

icemistOBE · 20/11/2015 19:43

It's a tweet from Sean Ward....

pixieg1rl · 20/11/2015 19:52

24 child-free hours (including spa) starts here!

Icing on the cake is the idea I get to see Fingers again.

Evening all - sorry, have been AWOL for a few days, things all a bit manic!

Welcome back dance, I'm sooo excited to see you've updated, can't wait to read!

Did I miss a bit of BA photo action today? ConfusedConfused think I need a fix!!!

Onlygirljen · 20/11/2015 20:08

Fantastic pixie, enjoy the luxury of you time!! Smile

Ilovelblue · 20/11/2015 22:44

Dance great to have you back with us. Going to read your update in bed as my Friday treat.

Not sure what I think of those photos of BA. Am thinking if that is the real BA, then it has to be CJ for me. Sorry ladies but if he smokes, that's a really big turn-off.

Hailing like mad here. When it's not hailing, it's torrential rain. No snow forecast for this area though fortunately.

Dizzydots · 20/11/2015 22:51

Enjoy enjoy enjoy pix
Interesting tweet, I have no idea how these things work but surely they'd have had the cast lined up ages ago - after all they must be leaving for filming in just a few weeks. The whole process is a mystery to me and why does it have to be a secret anyway??

Ilovelblue · 20/11/2015 22:54

Dizzy I don't understand Twitter either, you're not on your own!

MaddieMoo82 · 20/11/2015 22:56

Evening all. Am currently tucked in the worlds coldest house in the smallest single bed in the world, think I'm going to have to put my socks on as feet are hanging out of the bottom Hmm
Maybe it's a 'meet up for drinks before we go thing' dizzy, either way wish I was going!!
Hotel room looks lovely pix enjoy your luxury I'm quite jealous right now!!!

Sorry I've been AWOL, but prepping for my spa break has been quite time consuming. Rupert kindly offered to help spruce me up ready for CJ and after full body depilation (my back and chest took some time and the local wig factory has had an anonymous donation) he gave me a vajazzle. Unfortunately, there was some mixup and instead of 'Missed Me?' in rhinestones, I now have 'Pissed, Me?' Confused

Anyway, hope CJ's ready and raring to go tomorrow and has fully recovered from our last encounter at the kilt fitting. (Note to self: pack tape measure to check vital statistics are still fully in place)

orphan · 21/11/2015 00:36

Love, love, loving all the ff but am a bit behind on reviewing. Blame Rupes and the unfortunate accident with the hot glue gun when applying the rhinestones...

pixieg1rl · 21/11/2015 08:00

I'm about to embark on operation hide the gorilla orph. Who knew lounging around all day would take so much work? I can't say I'm going to the effort of a vajazzle though.

Envious of those spa weekends ladies!

Not normally one to complain about the cold but it's bloody freezing today. Looks as if it's going to be dry and sunny but that wind is vicious. Going out for lunch with a friend later and then looking after another friend's two boys tomorrow so should hopefully be a nice weekend.

Very sorry to see CJ go. BK collected him a little while back. Even at this hour of the morning, a few curtains were twitching as he left. She's managed to purloin some fancy, low slung number for him and I heard them debating who was going to drive. Glad to say that she stood her ground and said she would drive for the first hour or so at least. Hope he doesn't throw a sulk on her.

Ilovelblue · 21/11/2015 08:24

Oh and Rhubarb what a lovely treat for Saturday morning! I really enjoy your updates (as I do all the ff of course). How many more chapters are you planning?

BK28 · 21/11/2015 09:38

ilove great to see you this morning, apologies for the dawn start, but with the forecast needed to ensure plenty of time for safe delivery to *orph". Yes we did have the usual who isd driving stand off, but I know he likes a firm hand....and yes I driver the first hour...journey now progressing to planGrin!! He just loves the leather interior of my new Jag F type , include in that my all leather cat suit ( think Pussy Galore - Bond reference)! Anyway must dash back from updating for some more nimble handling & that isn't just the car!!!

Rhubarb01 · 21/11/2015 10:13

Morning ladies - much enviable activity going on elsewhere, very jealous!

Looking back over the thread I notice that woof was asking for Poldark intel and I have to confess that they were very near me only a few weeks ago, so close that I was contemplating taking my dog for a long walk and just letting him wander up the steps into the odd trailer at the location base using his celebrity sniffer dog skills to find the Captain himself. Reality - minded my own business and saw nothing of interest at all - sorry! I just can't do celebrity stalking. Clearly I need some lessons from the masters or should that be mistresses?

Kelly loved the idea that BA drives a camper van so much so that I'm beginning to think that your GI is a secret FF writer. I think he's got a good imagination and probably fancies you!

Thanks for the comments Ilove and BK. I'm thinking three or at a push maybe four more chapters but plan to publish them all together and hopefully next week.

Don't think I'll be able to make the Blackpool Strictly chat along as I am going out this evening but will watch back later and read your comments. I think I am still recovering from the loss of Jeremy Vine - my guilty pleasure - to think we could have seen him descending from the ceiling with an electric guitar and fireworks at each end, we'll never know what we missed. At the moment my money is on Georgia to win. I think she's great and a brilliant little dancer - that Charleston was fantastic. I'm not sure that Gleb and Anita will win in spite of his crowd pleasing charms. I wonder if they really get on that well?

Whatever you are doing have a good day. I'd say don't do anything I wouldn't do but then you'd have absolutely nothing to do - so forget that. Happy weekend!

BK28 · 21/11/2015 11:11

Really enjoyed catching up on the musings of the past couple of days.nickel loved the shot of The Bear!! Certainly one for the leaders!!

Have just caught up on the latest ff. dance sense some angst for all concerned including us the readers but great to have you back with us!! The warm weather does drag us away into r/ll!!!

rhub just loving the two updates today... Sneaky they came in under the radar!!

Interesting experience last night ...went to see last part of the hunger games...Liam hemsworth very pleasant on the eye, but at the end was surrounded by weeping teenagers...couldn't quite get their angst until comparing it to our level of emotional engagement with CJ! Then got it, only the actor they were collapsing over didn't do it for me!!

Back in r/l DH has just decided that the weather is OK for 20 miles on the old bike...now wrapping up warmly, perhaps may live to regret this!! Have a great day Ladies whatever you are doing!Smile

Remember smile and the world smiles with you,cry and you cry alone!!

Ilovelblue · 21/11/2015 17:39

Evening. Looks as if it's been quiet on here today. We must all have been out and about.

I had a lovely lunch and catch up with my friend. It's really strange that people always think we look like sisters. We don't think we do but even her own mother got us mixed up once.

Looking after my neighbour's cat this weekend so am going to nip across the road to feed her, then settle down in readiness for SCD. I feel for anyone who got tickets for Blackpool as it would be freezing cold waiting outside on the promenade. One of my colleagues got tickets a couple of years ago and they were kept outside for about two hours and he and his wife were frozen stiff by the time they were let inside.

orphan hope CJ has turned up with you and that BK hasn't kidnapped him for her own entertainment. I did mention to CJ about the kilt fitting in Edinburgh back in the spring and he went white and said something about "those bloody women and their tape measure" so I don't know how he's going to react when you whip it out again.

icemistOBE · 21/11/2015 17:58

Evening, been working today.

All set now for Strictly. Glass of wine in my hand, just to have tea and get boys to bed eventually

Ilovelblue · 21/11/2015 18:04

Totally random question here but has anyone noticed if any of the big supermarkets are doing stag pants this year? Just unearthed my Tesco ones from last year and wondering if there's going to be an updated version.

icemistOBE · 21/11/2015 18:07

I e not looked tesco but have pyjamas with a stag design

BK28 · 21/11/2015 18:24

ilove delivered to orph safely, although he did request a stop off for some dutch courage at a very smart hostelry ..we just had a quick one! He was still looking quite pale....tokdvhi m to stay etc and I'd pick him up next Saturday for the move to ice

Not sure about pants but stags have made it onto wrapping paper this year! Wonder if without the OG connection we would have noticed them as much?

Ilovelblue · 21/11/2015 18:52

Thanks BK.

There's somebody's law isn't there (like Boyle's or Parkinson's) that you only start to notice something once somebody has pointed it out. Such as thinking about buying a particular new car and then suddenly, that model seems to be everywhere. I've not explained that very well but maybe that's the case with the stags!

I can't even remember now how we likened CJ to a stag. Was it cherin and her drawings?

icemistOBE · 21/11/2015 19:02

Cherins amazing drawings of i remember.

So getting some stag pjs this year
