Thank you Nickel I had tried to read it on other sites, but very easy on this link. So pleased with the OG mention gives us all hope now need confirmation

MaddieMoo82 · 21/01/2017 12:27

Cheers for that nickel I'm just a wee bit excited to see it now!! Lovely acknowledge of OG as well giving us hope he will return Grin

Sorry about your sons driving test richtea. Unfortunately it took me 3 attempts Blush. Agreed that I was much more relaxed on the second attempt... relaxed enough to take a wing mirror off BlushBlush... it was however my only fault Smile

Chilly dull day here. Just waiting for ds to wake up from his nap and then we are off out for some fresh air and a wander.

Have a lovely Saturday everyone Smile

moojangles · 21/01/2017 14:53

Sharing the excitement mads! Enjoy your walk.
rich another one who took 3 attempts to pass here.
Hope the party goes well pix!

Have a good weekend everyone

Ilovelblue · 21/01/2017 21:22

What a great article Nickel. Thanks for posting the link. Sounds hopeful for OG3 anyway!

Been busy in the garden a large part of the day digging out the first of my compost heaps. It was frosty first thing so it was a good way to keep warm. I was totally kn.....d by the time I'd finished and tidied up.

I have just seen an advert on tv for 2017 programmes and it showed OG so further confirmation but we do need the cast names ASAP!

Ilovelblue · 22/01/2017 20:51

Oh yes Yorks I saw that last night. We've a way to go yet but at least it's confirmed!

Had a very nice day today, back at The Clink prison restaurant. Then some shopping afterwards. It was a really miserable and cold day - the sort of cold that goes straight through you, whatever you are wearing.

Rich my neighbour and I have our ladies' shopping/dining weekend coming up next Friday - we're staying about a mile down the road from where you stopped when you came up to view Manchester Uni.

What has everyone been up to this weekend?

Ilovelblue · 22/01/2017 20:59

Damn, why do I always cry at Call the Midwife?

MaddieMoo82 · 23/01/2017 12:09

Your photos from the click look fab ilove and the food looked yummy. Beats my pasty I had for lunch!

We've having some gorgeous weather here at the mo it's freezing but lovely and sunny Smile

Just been to visit my brother and sils new place. They moved at the weekend. He's a surprised though as the previous occupants have removed everything they could... light fittings, curtain poles, very random!

Hope everyone's having a good Monday!

MaddieMoo82 · 23/01/2017 12:14

Sorry ilove meant to type clink!

icemistOBE · 23/01/2017 14:13

Hi all,

Not posted properly for ages, Jan is always really busy so I'm shattered when I get home from work.

Photos looked great from The Clink ilove.

Mum has been moved to a nursing home, so much better than being in hospital. In my home town so she should have plenty of visitors. Planning to go over soon. Would love to have gone to see Ben's play but need the cash for flights. Bloody hotel charging £100 for a night!

Richtea19 · 23/01/2017 18:52

ilove that was a really nice hotel when we visited the Uni and much better value than a city centre one. DH is going up to Manchester next week to watch a football game and will probably stay there again. I won't suggest you meet him!!!

ice London hotels are a ridiculous price, I guess booking early in advance is always a cheaper option but then you don't always know in advance you want the room!

icemistOBE · 23/01/2017 19:26

Bloody pain rich when I stayed last Jan, same hotel was £50! £100 gets me 3 return flights to Dublin!!

Ilovelblue · 23/01/2017 22:57

Our hotel is in Wilmslow Rich but only a mile or so down the road from that place where you stayed. Did Mr Rich manage to get his own tickets for the match this time? I sooooo impressed myself with my ticket touting skills last time! We are going to eat on Friday lunchtime at the restaurant where we ate with ice as well. It's changed hands since we were there (I have been just before Christmas) but it must have the same chef as we wouldn't have known the place had been sold on.

ice I was about to book a hotel last week for part of my summer holiday to France on the outskirts of London (prior to going on Eurostar) and it had gone up from £82 a night to £134!! Needless to say, I looked for somewhere else a a more reasonable rate for us.

Glad they're keeping your Mum comfortable.

Ilovelblue · 23/01/2017 23:05

at a more reasonable rate.

icemistOBE · 24/01/2017 09:32

Oh that restaurant was lovely!

Ben is on BBC radio Kent this afternoon from 4pm Grin

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2017 11:01

Oooh will you be able to post the interview ice?

Richtea19 · 24/01/2017 11:53

ilove he paid a lot for the ticket, and won't be a good seat like your ticket touting skills obtained!!! If your man ever wants to do it again let me know as DH would jump at the chance.

At work this afternoon so I won't be able to tune into the interview so if you can post ice!that would be great.

icemistOBE · 24/01/2017 15:56

Will try and video/record it and post it in you tube again.

Lovely interview, talked about OG, The Titan, Amre.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2017 19:00

You should have said Rich. I would know who best to ask next time. If you have any dates in mind, just PM me. We had two offers of tickets in the end I seem to recall.

pixieg1rl · 24/01/2017 20:05

Managed to catch the SE news interview with Ben. My goodness the beard/curls combo is quite something 😍

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2017 20:44

No, no , no, no, no!!! I simply cannot tolerate beardiness and I'm sorry but that picture reminds me of someone I'd rather not say. Might have to start one of those online petitions to ban beardiness. Thank goodness no beard allowed in the army - so all being well come the third series of OG a razor will be employed to good effect.

Sorry, been AWOL for a while as not much to report. Sorry to hear the worrying news Rich. Hope the treatment goes well for your MIL.

There is a very funny trending thread at the moment about celebrity dreams which made me giggle it's the one that starts "I slapped Brooklyn Beckham's face last night". One of the ladies recounts an incident with D'Artagnan!

icemistOBE · 24/01/2017 21:28

Not a fan of beard either piece was rather funny with a few mentions of the Aldridge Army.... Grin

I think this is the right link. BA was around 14 minutes in and then there was a break for music etc and he was back for the second part. His voice is gorgeous - even if you're not actually taking in what he says!

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2017 22:13

It's been a stressful afternoon as we had more redundancies announced. I am looking into my pension/redundancy finances to see how I would be fixed if I leave. With the redundancy as a cushion, I could possibly think about something part time and no stress!
