Waiting out for the next series of Our Girl set in Nigeria. Some of us are still mourning the passing of Elvis Harte. All discussions on Captain James and his team welcome here (as well as other things from time to time).

Ladies, next week, I have a long standing arrangement which I had (sort of) forgotten about. I may be back for 9, but can't promise. It's more likely to be nearer to 9.30. What do you want to do?

Yes, ilove we were all a bit scathing of CJ's role weren't we and not sure about it at all. However, episode 2 won we over completely.

Well followed that through with you but it did make me realise that if that had been the first series of OG I would never have become a great fan of it. The acting/chemistry of BA and LT in series one was so good. Georgie just can't carry off the stroppy little medic that Molly could. Still it did keep the programme going and series 3 did perk up a bit. Thanks again by the way.

Happy to change to another day ilove and eejit.

eejittwo · 22/02/2018 22:07

ilove - is any other evening better? I could do next Tuesday instead, but the week after is just hideous all week.

My very favourite scene of episode 2 was Elvis and his team jumping out of the helicopter. Here come the boys! Oh yes!

That bit's just about worn out - if downloads can be worn out - on my machine.

eejittwo · 22/02/2018 22:11

Tuesday or Friday next week would work for me.

Good morning everyone
Can anyone help I have been trying to read on ff last night and just tried again this morning and cannot get it to connect with new updates. Is anybody else having any problems.

So cold here I was looking forward to a good old read later but then this
Any ideas from any of you
Thank you

Flowerfan · 24/02/2018 09:18

PS
All my other apps seem to be working alright

Magi84 · 24/02/2018 09:29

Yes Flower I have been having the same problems. I think they have a glitch. For a few minutes this morning it worked and I managed to read an update, but it has all gone pear shaped again. Hmm

Yes it's definitely up and down at the moment.

Freezing wind here. Is it the same for everyone else? My back garden is quite sheltered though so going to prune my climbing rose and need to get the stepladder out.

We've got bright and sunny at the moment Ilove (Hertfordshire) but the temperature is definitely dropping rapidly. Not a lot of wind though. Possible snow apparently!

Flowerfan · 24/02/2018 09:50

Thanks everybody
Yes magi that’s what happened to me and I was really wanting to read It’s happening again!!
Hopefully it will be sorted but at least I know it is not my iPad
Try and keep warm it looks as if we are in for a very cold week

kazzaD66 · 24/02/2018 15:44

Afternoon all! Beautiful sunny day here in Hampshire. I'm glad it's not just me having problems with the ff site, thought my Internet was packing up on me at one point! There's some fabulous stories on there at the moment, led by the old guard (in the very best possible way) of jenmc, itsembarrassing, greenstuff and twochicks. Fantastic to have them back with their brilliantly written stories. Happy days Smile Also found time this week to reread Shadow of a Doubt rhu. Lovely, as a certain gorgeous Captain would say Grin

Flowerfan · 24/02/2018 15:55

Yes I thought the same Kazza but thankfully all seems ok no
I’ve just read It’s happening again and am going to find Shadow of Doubt as I haven’t read that for ages. Been out in garden and it looks a lot better than it feels very cold even in the sun. I think on the eastern side of my Penines it is going to get worse!!

Magi84 · 24/02/2018 18:15

Yes the fanfic site has had us all in a bit of a cold sweat today. Seems to have settled down thank goodness. I agree Kazza that it is lovely to have some of our really favourite writers back in the swing of things. I'm going to take your tip now and read Shadow of a Doubt once more. It is great how we all seem to be able to enjoy some of the stories over and over again.

Are we ready for episode 2 watchalong tonight ladies?

Who has snow today? We had nearly two inches here this morning. It was quite a surprise as the forecast said we would just have snow flurries and the heavier snow was only expected later in the week. A lot of it has melted where the sun has been now but I suspect it will end up treacherous tomorrow when it re-freezes overnight.

I'll be ready and waiting at 9pm ilove.

As for snow, the Beast is disappointingly unbeastly so far. I live in hope.
