Cake is a good idea unless, of course, you stray into the thorny subject of the correct pronunciation of 'Scone' or, god forbid, whether you put your jam on before cream or vice versa! That could quickly lead to a bust up!

As for the 'E' word - sometimes I feel apathetic and then I hear a bit more news about it and my blood boils. I didn't even care about the football last night and I do usually watch. Frankly there's more important stuff to worry about and as they appeared to be disorganised, leaderless and have no plan B - plus my boss pointed out that someone resigned at the end of it - it was a bit of the same old same old.

I really need OG2 - right now! Please hurry up BBC and TG. Until then there's still watch along!

That could then lead into the cream tea, milk first or second when making tea properly debate

I can offer 2 maps to help with her time in the uk.

The first covers the variations in pronouncing the word 'scone'

The second regional stereotypes

And remember if you are talking scones then you can't miss debating the ultimate issue....Clotted cream then jam or jam then clotted cream. Obviously being a Devonshire bumpkin then I'm clotted cream first all the way and lots of it!!. Think I might have mentioned this before but it's an issue close to my heart Grin

Braving The living and the dead tonight on your lovely ladies recommendations...have a pillow to hide behind just incase (I'm a right wuss!!)

Rhubarb01 · 28/06/2016 22:05

Well done mads. In spite of having seen it all I've dipped in for another peek. Just remember - "don't have nightmares - do sleep well!" Grin. I was just wondering whether there was any chance of the BBC putting OG2 up as a box set before it starts it's run. It's a good way of getting people to talk about it before it airs. Imagine if they did - we'd all be camped out for days on the sofa, watching and re-watching. What a good idea - go on Beeb!

pixieg1rl · 28/06/2016 22:18

Oh mads, it's BRILLIANT. I'm just starting the last episode.

It's not massively scary, but I must admit that I've been putting on more lights on the way up to bed.

The dog is growling at something in the garden but it's too dark to see argh!
Yes will probably watch episode 2 tomorrow night.

icemistOBE · 29/06/2016 06:57

Not watched the living and dead. Got distracted last night. Will try and watch it. I've got a ton of stuff to watch that I recorded when we only had the tiny tv.

Back to work today. First day in after the vote, I know things have changed for us, so will be interesting.

Ab Fab movie looks good

icemistOBE · 29/06/2016 06:57

Anyone else having problems with the app? Won't post anything for me Sad

pixieg1rl · 29/06/2016 07:21

Yes ice been unable to post on the app since yesterday. It's been reported and Mumsnet are looking into it.

I'll probably have a second watch of it as well to catch all the bits I missed first time rhu.

Morning all. Lovely double update from Whajeb. Just indulged before getting up!

Been pouring down but the sun is out now and everything is steaming! It's monsoon type weather.

pixieg1rl · 29/06/2016 20:57

How's everybody today? Shattered here, and starting to panic over how disorganised I am about summer holiday childcare.

MaddieMoo82 · 29/06/2016 21:16

Oh god are you using holidays clubs pix? Are they expensive?
Knackered work has been crazy the last few days I'm not sure what is going on! Never known it like it!! Half way through my ironing but having a break and probably won't manage to start again.
Torrential rain here on and off all day and the bloody slugs are back Angry
Hope mrks presentation thingy went well kelly

pixieg1rl · 29/06/2016 21:32

Oh, yes Kelly, how did it go?

I'm building up a massive amount of money in childcare vouchers mads after the black hole that is nursery fees no longer needs filling. Its finding somewhere with space that's an issue.

Evening. I've had a tiring day too. A job that looked as if it would take half an hour at the most ended up taking about half the day! I had to ask my boss for help in the end and then I realised that he'd been bluffing his way along and hadn't a clue about the information I needed. Always did think he could bullsh*t his way round stuff but I now have proof!

I'm so tired now, I have to go to bed.

Ilovelblue · 30/06/2016 17:21

Very, very quiet on here today.

pixieg1rl · 30/06/2016 17:33

Ooh, I'll just test if I can post on the app.

Just seen via the Facebook group that there's going to be some OG publicity on Instagram tomorrow instagram.com/p/BHR1QyfDMx6/

I've just seen some clips from OG2 on the trailer the BBC ran just before the 6pm news showing stuff that was on during the summer!

Rhubarb01 · 30/06/2016 18:22

Mostly MK in combats - stuff from SA shoot!

icemistOBE · 30/06/2016 18:26

Ooh, must be trying to have it ready for Autumn!
PR certainly stepped up for this series Grin

MaddieMoo82 · 30/06/2016 18:28

Ooh exciting hopefully they will replay the clip Smile

Rhubarb01 · 30/06/2016 18:30

It was part of what they were trailing for 'Summer'? Mind you they may stretch the boundaries of what they call summer and I suppose it could be late September!
