TENNIS - high on a mountain in Torino the season comes to a close

[JaneJeffer]

I need to hear more Jane - I think I last watched Corrie when Ena Sharples was still in it

It was two gay characters in the cafe Fizzy. Sean said Rafa Nadal is leaving his wife and joining him for an egg white omelette because he doesn't do carbs. Todd told him he'll have to forget Rafa for now because he needed to talk to him I'm not a regular watcher but left ITV on after Emmerdale.

that sounds like some sort of weird fever dream Jane!

It was football all the way here

Only DS2 here this evening and he wasn't bothered watching the match.

That Corrie exchange sounded like someone had a bet with the script writer! how random. Football here too- we were laughing - because I watch tv with the subtitles most of the time- due to everyone being so loud round here- and it's habit. So, the Welsh National anthem came on - and it was obvious the subtitles had been pre-done, and were not being hastily typed live. Usually 'live' subtitles are full of very odd mistakes

I wasn't paying attention to the football though, and dd1 got bored.

Ons is at the World Cup

Ever since yesterday, i have had real problems posting- art from on site stuff- where i was able to post to say I was having trouble posting. .

It's really getting on my nerves.

But at least that worked

Must just be the Doctors thread

Shame that wouldn't happen to some other people on this site. They probably think the same about me

Jane it is very strange. I've tried so many times to post stuff and it really it just won't work. But only there!

You'll have to post here and put a link over there

That probably won't work either though!

Jane honestly, I have no idea what is going on- because it just isn't working at all on that thread- I will wait an see if I can post when someone starts a new one (it's nearly full)- because it really is baffling.
And I started that thread- so I feel quite miffed

I do wish they wouldn’t keep messing around with things. It’s very irritating.

That's outrageous Raahh and very weird

I agree Chessie but it's like talking to the wall getting them to back down on anything ever and they hold all the cards!

From now on, Jane I am going to have to discuss Doctors here. Which I do fairly often anyway, .
I have tried several times now, by quoting posts, on my phone, and on my laptop and I am being blocked by the Doctors thread. Clearly I am very controversial. Maybe someone is trying to tell me something?

I have never seen Doctors so won’t be able to add much to any chat here! I am missing the tennis chat though so anything to fill up the time is welcome!

Jane Oh I know, - I've still got a 'new' message alert in my 'inbox' showing from when they re-vamped the site ages ago. It's not new, its from Magi, and is from months ago . But the little 'new' message dot won't go away. Ever. No matter how many times I look at the message.

I would love to know who all these people in the focus groups are, who actually think these changes are so great - because all I ever see are posters saying they are crap.

Chessie Oh, that really doesn't matter, it's a load of rubbish, but it fills half an hour of my day - and the plots are dire. Sadly, they go off air for weeks at Christmas too, that doesn't help.

I always find something to waffle about though.

I'm sure you're a valuable contributor to the Doctors thread Raahh honestly there's very few threads here now where someone won't come along and attack you if you don't toe the party line so this thread and the Emmerdale thread are my safe spaces on here. There's people now who would faint clean away if they ever read the old X Factor threads but not before they tried to get everyone cancelled first!

Jane I was looking at an old X Factor thread the other day (can't remember why) and no, we would never get away with a lot of what was said now. Was fun though. Even the thread titles would probaly get us in all sorts of bother.

If I ever need a laugh I watch the jockey woman's audition on YouTube

I miss X Factor. It was it's own brand of rubbish, but it filled a gap. Can't believe it's been 3 years- and the last series was the terrible celebrity one.

It used to be the countdown to Christmas for me. I miss it.
