Oops! Just posted on the old thread and it passed 1000 messages and died. Thought I had better start a new one quick!

Wow, are we up to 1,000 already? I did wonder how big it would have to get before it died.
I'm not surprised about Craig. he looks a bit 'Dreamboy Stripper'-ish.

Berrie · 13/06/2007 13:09

ooo I've never been on a dead thread before! Things are getting out of hand!
Yes I can also see Craig doing that, he has the look but not...I don't think the personality, he seemed too quiet.

lyrabelacqua · 13/06/2007 13:21

Glad you found your way here Berrie, fellow Lee concubine.
Did you look at that other site? some of them are living and breathing Joseph . Makes us just look mildly interested.

Berrie · 13/06/2007 13:27

I did look but couldn't find the Lee thread...will try again while dd is asleep...

Berrie · 13/06/2007 13:29

got it...

Berrie · 13/06/2007 13:34

My word they're very rude are't they? I really think one should keep thoughts like those to yourself...I know I do

lyrabelacqua · 13/06/2007 13:49

I found loads of those forums while searching for downloadable clips for oggsfrog.
There's a lot of competition out there, thereby reducing our chances (even further).

lyrabelacqua · 13/06/2007 13:56

I also found out that there's supposed to be some sort of Joseph - The Winner's Story type thing coming up, so keep an eye out for it in TV listings.

Berrie · 13/06/2007 14:08

No no our chances are near the top of the list as I know someone who knows him and when my friend rings me up with his, 'Because I'm Lee's friend invitation to see the dress rehearsal' and takes me...and then we go backstage to say hello to Lee...I will take you with us too....Can you tell this is a well rehearsed fantasy?

Berrie · 13/06/2007 14:29

I have more of those...

Berrie · 13/06/2007 14:30

I go to see my friend next month (this bit is true) and Lee texts to see if he is free....sigh and swoon

lyrabelacqua · 13/06/2007 16:46

At least you've got a chance of meeting him through your friend.
If i want to meet him I'll have to hang around the stage door with all the teenage groupies.
(I won't be doing that, btw)

Berrie · 13/06/2007 17:11

I don't really have a chance Lyra, these are deeply unreal fantasies. I only see my friend a couple of times a year! It is more a textual relationship. If he were to take someone it certainly would not be me!

BoingBoing · 13/06/2007 20:03

Oh my God we killed it. Has that ever happened on Mumsnet before?

And of course I will stand in the queue behind Lyra, she did brave work in the trenches of the other site so deserves a medal for outstanding valour. She's right, there are some loonies out there, but most are on the Spy one - I ran away in terror from that.

As for Craig! Who'dathunkit?!

Berrie · 13/06/2007 20:14

BoingBoing I spent some time looking at that Spy one today. You are quite right,terrifing, it made me feel a little ill!
Lyra, I will have to give some thought to the idea that we are a collection of Lee concubines...not an unpleasant idea

lyrabelacqua · 13/06/2007 20:14

The other thread probably got fed up with all the Lee lusting and decided to implode
Anyone know where's a good place to buy Joseph tickets? i've got some for the night of my birthday but I've just realised we're in the cheap seats at the back and I want a close-up view.

DumbledoresGirl · 13/06/2007 20:37

Craig a stripper? Oh the poor love. I really hope he finds something better to do with his time as a result of being on the programme. I am not as Lee obsessed as you lot (though I wanted him to win) so if you hear anymore news of any of the others, please post it here. (I don't get to hear gossip anywhere else!)

lyrabelacqua · 14/06/2007 09:38

According to ticketmaster, Lee will now be performing in the week beginning September 10th.
There are loads of good seats available because people thought he'd be off that week. I've just booked a second set. I'll sell the first lot on eBay.

Ooh thanks Lyra.

(What date were your originals for?)

OP posts:
lyrabelacqua · 14/06/2007 13:38

September 4th. I'm undecided whether I should go twice or make some money selling the first set on eBay.

Iklboo · 14/06/2007 13:46

Dear Jim...please will you fix it for me to fix it with Lee

cornsilk · 14/06/2007 13:54

Where is he performing?

lyrabelacqua · 14/06/2007 14:14

iklboo, get in line
cornsilk, at the Adelphi, on The Strand.

Berrie · 15/06/2007 18:19

And so...before it had even really begun....the new Joseph thread begins to dwindle and die. How long before we say...Lee?...Lee who?....

lyrabelacqua · 15/06/2007 20:04

I know, Berrie, tis sad but I guess the show is over so there's not that much to say, apart from lusting after LL (Lovely Lee), of course.
It would be nice if people would post any news of what the boys are doing if they hear any.
Maybe the thread will pick up again once the Joseph show starts.
btw, i did finally manage to find a load of clips from the show to download, which i got mainly from the Lee Mead Appreciation Society (I kid you not) website.
I'll try and find a few more of other people, for balance, maybe some of the group tasks, then burn them onto a highlights dvd. I told you I don't give up easily .
People on other sites have downloaded the entire series and made dvds.
