Our Girl and Captain James Addicts Thread XXXVIII

[icemistOBE]

2 years ago a thread on Our Girl was started with these words ^Anyone watching this drivel?
although slightly enjoyed the family dynamics going on last night, unfortunately DD's favourite programme and in fact Guardian seems to recommend it^

38,000 posts, fireside wrestling contests, fan-fiction, autograph requests, carol concerts, CJ Grand Tours later we are about to watch series 2! And that first post is a distant memory.

Join us on what is sure to be an amazing journey over the next 5 weeks

Stay Alert, Stay Focused, Stay Alive

Welcome back cremeeggs good to have you with us again and hello to whajeb and Dance. It's like old times.

Now I have to confess to being a silly old Rhubarb right now -surely not I hear you cry - as next week's RT dropped through the door today (there's a back page question and answer session with MK) but of course I rather dumbly looked at episode 2 - bit of a spoiler in there so avoid at all costs until tomorrow!! (Mind you I did sort of suspect it and it won't spoil my enjoyment too much!). Actually most of the write up was concerned with pondering the likelihood of there being three such good looking soldiers as BA, MK and LP in the same place and how it must be creating a spike in army recruitment figures. Can't disagree with that. I don't think I'll try to watch or listen to anymore interviews before tonight.

For a bit of fun some of us have come up with a game of Our Girl Bingo, which I hope will be taken as the good natured banter that its intended to be.

You can download/view the bingo cards at drive.google.com/open?id=0B4V-n-wQSev4czVGRHNWYW9Od1k and thanks to the input of some funny ladies we've some rude amusing bingo calls lined up. You can fill your boots on Twitter @OpsTent if you are so inclined.

I've stuck it on a separate account because some I follow would rip the piss mercilessly if it were on my account and because it isn't just me its not fair to take the humiliation glory.

Any suggestions for bingo items and clues are always welcome. At fear of over extending myself I hope to tweak them a little for each episode. If it's good enough for Poldark it's good enough for OG.

Hurray pix, I have my mini pencil sharpened and ready to go!!

[Rhubarb01]

Thanks pix I'm feeling ambitious and optimistic about my skills with a dabber - that's a 'dabber' woof and it's not related to a 'dibber', well not in this part of the world anyway - and have printed two cards although I might need to wait for a rewatch before I feel able to tear my eyes away from the screen.

[pixieg1rl]

Quick fire rhu, just watch what you're doing with that dabber

[Rhubarb01]

Yep, things could get nasty around here

[Onlygirljen]

Since I've only ever encountered the term dabber in the urban dictionary sense of the word, I'm wondering just what you're up to during the day rhu

[Rhubarb01]

How very dare you jen! As if I would lower the tone of the conversation - this is strictly legal I'll have you know and I very much subscribe to the OED definition and that applied in most Bingo Halls across the nation - hotbeds of criminality mind you!

[Onlygirljen]

Sorry rhu, how could I ever have doubted you?! It's much more woof's style to be dabbling in illegal drugs of an afternoon. She's partial to a good bang bong.

[AlittleinlustwithRA]

Kuia - keep your eyes peeled Mr Turner is very much bare-chested and beautiful at one point in 'And Then There Were None.' Enjoy!

[Alwaysfrank]

Well tonight is the night and I'm really looking forward to....a sixth form meeting at school! Hopefully will watch on a slight time lag once we get home. Can't wait to report back for duty after watching.

[Ilovelblue]

Wine chilling in the fridge once I get home, jobs done asap, can't wait till 9pm!!!!!

[cjwoofwoof]

Ooh less than 4 hours to go now and I'm still hyper. Spent far too much money at the outlet just coz I'm in a good mood. Shouted "Koo-eee" to you mooj on the M4.

Oh of course Ali Richard Armitage - aah yes he's long since been on the wrestling list (oops my iPad wanted to correct that to lust which is probably just as well). So you're Twochicks are you? Excellent ff my lady

Kuia Ive got my iPad screen saver as AT in THAT towel in the doorway scene of the Agatha Christie drama - beyond perfection and exactly how a towel should be worn except on Phil Mitchell bleurghhh!

[cjwoofwoof]

Ayup Dancey it's been a while my like filth ridden minded sister! How's it hanging? Missed you buckets and spades, chick. too to Waj Creme et al wonderful that you've come back to us.

Now where's that old crock orph got to? I'm sure the clinic gave her the all clear months ago And SPO I hope he's returning, per-lease?

[MaddieMoo82]

Wow what a busy day on here. Incase I don't get on here have a fab one tonight ladies and enjoy

[moojangles]

Ditto to that mads. MrMooj away til Fri so watching in peace, just got to get my marking done.
Welcome back/ welcome and enjoy!!!

[icemistOBE]

Loads of new pictures today!
This is just one of them

Manic day here, hubby has lost his job (we expected it) so looking forward to a glass of wine and OG tonight.

[pixieg1rl]

Oh no ice, that's not good! Hugs, hope something else comes along quickly

[cjwoofwoof]

That's a bummer ice

Just had a sudden rush of blood to the ... erm ... head. I've been idly googling recently thinking about getting another dog as I lost my old girl in the early summer. I've just reopened my iPad to come on here and noticed one of my open tabs across the top read as "Show type cock". Alas it's not a site of excellent pics of CJ or AT (or Richard Armitage ali) in the buff, but a website for cocker spaniel puppies. I did, however, double check, just in case...but it really, really wasn't

[MaddieMoo82]

Sorry to here that ice

Ah woof that's a shame! Would have definately been asking you for that email address. Sorry to here about your lady too. We have cocker/springer cross, she's bonkers but lovely.

[LovingTheBritActors]

Super excited. Your banter over the last thread was wonderful ladies. My daughter and friends are having a girlie watch but least I know you lovelies will be watching with full concentration and we will be right by his side. (I wish) 😍😍

[icemistOBE]

Thank you ladies he's got some interviews lined up so hopefully won't be too bad.

So bloody excited for tonight! I've seen the bingo!!! Looks great but probably won't have time to join in.

There's a particular line tonight that made me think of here straight away, hope you all notice it

[moojangles]

Sorry to hear that ice

[Richtea19]

ice sorry to hear about hubby and the job. Fingers crossed interviews etc all pan out. Ps looking forward to our meet up next month!!!

Back from work and Sainsburys.. (Such a rock and roll life I lead) managed a glass of wine already just to settle by butterfly's! Absolutely bloody love the bingo. Do we shout "cockwomble" with a line or is there another command ?

Looking forward to checking in with you all
Later, it's going to be a late night!

[elsie3g]

Evening you lot! Thanks for all the waves and welcomes. Him indoors is currently dispatching the little bleeders to bed. Two back to school (shakes fist & shouts "yeahheessss") but managing an aggressive three year on in minecraft tshirt demanding he play on the Xbox all day rather than playing out or actually doing anything I ask of him has brought me to my knees!
As such, wine has already been dispensed and a bake-off buildup is on the cards. Hopefully by 9 all will be serene but if you could hear the background noise at this end you'd bet against it!

....and breathe

ice sorry to hear your news x
