You know sometimes you can go away...

...for too long.

Don't get me wrong, I had the best holiday I have ever had by miles and miles but in two weeks too many things can happen - most of all around the middle of my torso. Seventeen days away from any form of excercise whatsoever, is it worth it ?

Sure there was a gym at the hotel but where's the incentive ? As the late breakfasts roll into the long lunches, which in turn become blurred with all those early dinners along with all that French naughtiness thrown in. If the French really eat like they feed us France should have sunk years ago due to the sheer weight. They eat all that bread and cheese for le petit dejeuner and then full fat everything to follow right through until dinner time, yet we didn't see a French fatty anywhere.

Noah of course now gurgles fluent French, he's such a quick learner and his Mummy has once again been restored to her usual summer colour tone of very alluring half Armenian bronze whilst Daddy and husband now sports a mysterious scar over his right eye - the result of his first day out with the lads for almost three and a half years the Monday of the first week off. Now I remember why I don't do that anymore.

Good to see Diversity win on the old recorded highlights last night. I thought they were absolutely the best, when all things considered though I have to say my vote for second was the little Shaheen kiddie... unbelievable lungs and he obviously loved being on stage - the sign of a true performer.

Here's Nodge on the last day of his hols up in the lakes at his best friend Marge's birthday.

    Christoph, if you can't let yourself go on holiday, when can you. Glad you had the best time.

    Yes we did read about your little mishap, we all have them from time to time, it's no big deal, even tho' the press try to make it out to be!

    So glad to have you back. What's happened to Piccie?

    mSc - Yes we had a great party at Bids, she was a wonderful host.

    Hi all

    Welcome back CLP. Glad to hear you had a great holiday. Where is the piccie of gorgeous Noah. (Please stop with the 'Nodge'!).

    Hello to everyone out there in blog land. Sorry not been in touch - can't cope with the next button. And, to be honest have been sooooo busy it would have taken me all day everyday to catch up!

    Anyhow, I hope everyone is fit, well and happy. Blog meet photo's look good - glad you had a fabby time.

    Sun splitting the pavement again to-day here in Norfamps. Should be at home enjoying said sun instead of trying to stay cool and calm in the office.

    Hi Chris,

    Welcome Home - It's so good to have you back. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip. I missed you, but then you know that! Otherwise I've had a very inspirational week. It's nice to be back in the old routine which includes reading your wonderful blogs and listening to your show.

    I hope you had time on your holiday to play with your new Blackberry. I'm so pleased I don't have one!

    I've loved watching Britain's got talent, the finals and the whole run up. One of the acts that I loved most were the two guys dancing naked - Ian and I didn't catch his friend's name. They certainly made me laugh!

    Look after your heart!

    Lots of Love,

    Morning, afternoon all. And welcome back Chris. I definitely thing you should get all future holidays approved by the masses. Especially the duration....LOL. The last two weeks have seen like an eternity. My afternoons are just not the same..... Although Chris, you did miss some really good stuff on the blog....

    Any way, it's bright and sunny here in upstate NY this morning. Temps still on the cool side (in the 60s) but at least it's not raining. Hope you all had a good weekend.

    Up in the 80s here today, although a few clouds beginning to bubble up but very warm.

  • Comment number 35.

    Hi 007: I agree, in future Chris should seek our approval before he heads off on holiday. I mean, a break of two weeks from his radio show is just simply unnecessary!

    AliB: I hope you saw my post on the other blog thanking you for the duvet cover tip!

    Hello 007, Glad to hear that your having some good weather. also very nice here ,itwas the hottest day of the year yesterday so far, lets hope for many more.

    Hi Bridget. Good weekend thanks. Glad you had a good weekend too. Sunday was sunny here but I don't think the temps got out of the 50s. It was like an autumn day, very windy.

    Chrissie, LOL agreed!! If we had only approved two weeks, he wouldn't be suffering from the holiday spread....LOL I agree with Chris though, when you're on holiday, the last thing one thinks about or wants to do, is exercise.... Although I remember on my last trip home, I upset my folks because I went for a run before breakfast.... oh well!!

    Afternoon all,

    Welcome back Chris, you've been missed, as you can tell.

    My son has gone right off of you by the way....we were watching the Grand Prix together and I was telling him how I had driven around the circuit (had to explain that they were normal roads when I did) and pointed out the yachts. I then said, you know that man on the radio at dinnertime (dinnertime! that'll be contentious with the northern contingent) he's on one of those!
    He was really - genuinely jealous......actually.....so was I!!!

    Oh, and as for the scar.....so what!
    You've got to have a blow out every now and again....I hope the better half was calmer than mine would have been though.

    Was the word idiot used??

    Bring on the show

    Mr Ripley

    PS - Leeds meet looks like a right laugh.

    Helloooooo and hurrah, welcome back Chris, glad you had such a great time and what a lovely photo - a real smasher.

    Hello to all blogladites new and old.

    Beautiful sunshine here in Warwickshire, think I might have to schedule in a lie in the garden with the radio for at least an hour, shouldn't really but what ho. Have got a white stripe on me feet where I forgot the cream on Saturday - that North East wind is very misleading; feels cold, burns yer skin off.

    Hope everyone enjoyed the meet or whatever it was they were doing at the weekend.

    Can you believe that Gordon Brown has made a statement about Susan Boyle? I thought the newsreader was having a laugh. This world get's madder by the minute; you'd think he had enought to worry about. He is a desperate man.

    Adios,

    MTF, I'll join in the June challenge too if that's ok, although the weigh in will have to be tomorrow - you know when you see pictures of yourself and think oh no is that really what I look like?? - as today is nearly over and I have eaten ice cream hehe.

    Scoobs #2 - are you trying to suggest that the rest of us were the worse for wear madam??

    Beez #45, we did no such thing, how dare you accuse us of it!

    ThunderclapN #52 - we also reused the ice bucket, thus conserving water. But only once ;-)

    Right, off to round off a fabulous weekend with the ironing. But there'll be a beer on the side and CLP on the radio, so all is right with the world.

    The pic looks lovely, what a smart young man!

    Well, am about to be descended on by a miserble Mr JG, not a good day at work, cos a lot of changes afoot, and he's been stuck out on a job "on the darkside" (won't expand for fear of offending anyone!), so has worked over his hours, and is one unhappy bunny!

    Will probably catch you all in the morning!

    Have a good evening!

    Hello all, welcome back CLP, sounds like you have had a fabby holiday. Hope everyone has been enjoying the sunshine, I've been stuck in work all weekend so haven't been able to enjoy as much of the sun as I'd like, possibly a mixed blessing as I'd probably have turned into a lobster by now! managed to get out for a while today though.

    Annie; whereabouts in Sweden are you off to? I am not long back...

    Welcome back CLP!!!

    What a gawjus piccy of baby Noah!!

    Is that me getting a bit broody?

    Could it be that this ever increasing bump is having an effect on me? I think so!

    Well all of the travel plans are now cancelled with some bits of refund but nowhere near all of it... doncha love clients? At least I don't have to worry about the mozzies any more... but on the down side... I don't get to meet my friends new puppy either. Now there's something that's guaranteed to make me broody!!

    Hope everyone has enjoyed the super smashing sunshinee day. And Bond- I hope the weather warms up for you again soon.

    Long time no post!

    Lovely picture of Noah, looks so cute! Good to have you back CLP.

    Haven't caught up on here for so long that I can't now, so hope that everyone is well.

    Regarding Susan Boyle I really do think that she should be left alone now. There were people hiding in bushes at the hospital today trying to get a picture of her and loads of them outside the gate too. They were trying to get information from fellow patients and I think it's horrible, to my knowledge they were unsuccessful I'm pleased to say.

    This weather is amazing, totally making the most of it when I get the chance anyway. Loving my garden at the moment.

    Back later I hope.

    Regarding the little fella from wales, know you think he has confidence and has a good set of lungs, but am I the only one who recognises him from the cbeebies programme grandpa in my pocket, my 3 year old son loves the programme, have seen the episode where he sings in Miss Smileys cafe too many time.

    Hi Debbie and all t'other bloggers and welcome back Chris. We have missed you sooooo much!

    Debbie - I agree with you re Susan. Leave the poor woman alone to get her head together. It is probably the best thing that she didn't win. I don't think she could have coped.

    Only just managed to get on line - friends son has spent two hours trying to get my wireless router to recognise my new netbook - so that I can blog/surf from the comfort of the sofa - but the piece of crap that the router is, it just wouldn't have it!! so have now ordered a new wireless router to see if that works - otherwise so far the netbook is a very large mp3 player!

    That's probably my lot for tonight so I will catch all you lovelies tomorrow.

    Hi Chris,

    So good to have you back, have to say it's the quickest two hours of the day!

    Really pleased you had a great holiday. I managed to control my intake of bread and cheese for most of my week but eventually succumbed! Only gained 1lb - not bad for a week in sunny Provence!

    Gorgeous picture of Noah - he is adorable.

    Speaking of adorable litte boys. DebbieC on one of the days I was looking after my friends little girl we were watching Cbeebies and your little man and his Grandad were on! He was a star, delightful little boy and an absolute credit to his Mummy and Daddy. You should be very proud of him.

    Your Dad does a fantastic job at the rescue centre.

    I know I'm more of a lurker than a poster these days so don't contribute to the blog but have to say I have enjoyed the chat over the last few days. Sometimes a change is good don't you think?

    Keith - always good to see you on the blog, hope you stick around xx

    Great pics of the Leeds meet - pleased you all had a good time.

    Take care all.

    We are off back to the old Ireland next week for our hols and my hen night!! Yaaaaaaaay, we have finally decided to tie the ole knot.
    Nuptuals are taking place late Oct, Im soooooooooooooooooooo excited, its all being done on a shoestring (well actually the frayed bit on the end of a shoestring when the plastic thingy comes off) but all the people I love will be there so who cares!!!

    Evening all. Just about to head off to bed.

    Lovely to hear from you Debbie. I was thinking of you today. I wouldn't swap my life with anyone in the 'public eye' for all the tea in China. I really do feel for SB. Why does the media believe they have the right to build people up so they can knock them down. It's about time we celebrated all that's good in this country. Enough's enough!

    Right, off my soapbox before I fall off it!

    AF - I've got a pile of ironing here. You know where I am! BTW, did my beer cool down in the ice bucket or was it replaced with another bottle of shampoo?

    Lyndyloo - sorry to hear you won't be making your trip. You'll have to make do with the tropical weather here instead!

    Oh, and hello to the newbies.

    Hi Penny, MC, Crumpy, Bridget etc....I'm doing really well thanks.

    Mary I am so pleased that you saw LM on CBeebies, I was at the hospital the day it was aired so I watched it in my friend's room with her.

    It was lovely to see him and my Dad and yes, we are very proud of them both. Thank you Mary :-)

    I'm totally shattered so am off to bed now. Another busy day beckons.

    Nite nite

    Evening everyone and welcome back Chris - we missed you.

    I envy Natasha her golden tan. I was weeding the garden yesterday, covered in factor 30 on my face and arms but oblivious to the fact that in bending over I was exposing a bit of a builders' bum. I now have a livid stripe of sunburn which I have been told is called a "pickers' smile" across my nether regions.

    It was a great party Beez except I ended up falling asleep in the holly bush,not the comfiest of places but a serious amount of bottle glugging had gone on and thats where i found myself the next morning,rudely awoken by 2 amorous pigeons trying to make a nest with my hair!

    OO,what a scorcher it has been driving about today,29c according to the in car therm.

    Gonna get an earlier one tonight as I am actually bushed.

    MTF /Lin not a jot of outside time I'm afraid. Ah well - had my fair share of fun/sun Saturday (and Sunday) for a change.

    Saw a number of motorways over the week-end and discovered my new car has fairly hard seats - had to stop a few times to get the circulation going in the nether regions. Fat re- distribution would suit me!!!

    If anyone hears from Bingo can they tell him that I finally got my downstairs loo fixed.

    Yes, I called a plumber.

    He took one look at it and said " youve got problems with your diaphragm, bare faced cheek, how could he tell just by looking.

    Anyway,it has been replaced and normality has been restored in the MTFs water works dept.LOL !!!

    Rough head for Brum so far Beez?
