Have a lovely time Chris and family.

All request Friday would love to hear Luther Vandross Never Too Much or Montell Jordan Return of the Mack. They are just the sort of tunes I love to hear when the sun is hot and the evenings are long.

Thanks Lampie pie

Af`noon..

Sunny and warm and gorgeous up here... was going to be a `dinner`

Ha,ha

Rips hoping to soon lose his Jelly belly...

Rips...thanks for the rugger comments..although middle name is Evan (which my grandmother actually paid for...i.e. paid my Dad £500 for the privelage!!) I try and avoid the Welsh connection, so fully support glorious England.

Oh h*ll - pressed post - sorry!

anyhoo - as i was saying...

was going to be a `dinner` tonight but now contemplating `firing up the barbie` as GM now always says... Gene Genie has a lot to answer for! Gas one chez Scoobs... with coals on tho so you get the authentic smel l without the crisp edged but otherwise raw piece of meat problem!

Book drafts...having never written one (never mind a Pome) i wouldnt know the ins and outs but i`m sure we`ll all agree the words will be in the right order when we all read it come October time CLP!

Right... TFI friday...5 down and 1 to go..been a loooonnnnggggg (but good on here!) week..

Choclit run about to commence..

mSc x

Rips....this makes a change from all the girlie talk ay???

More BBQ and Rugby goss' please!! Oh and don't forget Al. Cohol.!! FNBC tonight...

Hi Groovybradybunch,

Wasn't return of the Mack - Mark Morrison?

Montel Jordan did 'This is how we do it'....whatever 'it' was?!

I only mention because Mark and Lard used to constantly do and re-do the joke about M. Morrison, that when was released from prison he dwmanded the 'Return of the Mack'.....aqlways made me laugh.

Whoever was talking about Beef for a photoshoot on old blog, I think its a good thing, must be a good cut of beef

and talking of butchers and a like

Have you noticed how bacon from a butcher tastes far better than any from anywere else, and it doesnt shrink as its not pumped full of water

All hail the local butcher, Bacon, Beef and proper pork pies!

Ah, Christophe, I merember that very show...and I've mentioned it on here before that you hold the distinction of broadcasting one of my very favritest bits of radio. Very, very funny!

You may remember yourself...some bloke sent in a recording of him and his mates watching the eclipse...and all you could hear was them going 'Oooooooooooooh...'

I guess you had to be there.

Anyhoo, have a fine time best manning, and I'll see you the following Choosdee when I return from my holiday in Crete.

dunno if I've already said about going on holiday
love

Walking on Sunshine, or Sunny...either / or...pip pip x

Tango...Hear hear!

I cannot wait to open my first cold one of the week tonight.....
I shall torture myself by waiting until the nippers are in bed and the take-away has been delivered.

Well....I'll try anyway.

Did your Grandmother really pay your Dad to have the say so on your middle name?
If so, that's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.....

Brilliant...

Can't help feeling we missed a trick there though

Rips

Sir Slim Jim - twas me on about the beef and as you are in my neck of the woods you may already use them?
Bestist butchers around.

Beezer xx

Haze...think you did say something about a holiday, but not certain???

Have a good one and be good, if you can't be good....!

TBx

Oh Scoobs.............did you have to??

Mention choclit that is?

I've had none in the house all week and due to the poorly tooth told myself it was for my own good, should stick to fruit instead etc etc - and now...........

I WANT SOME CHOCLIT - NOW!!!!

df

I hope to attend FNWC this evening if I can get the little darlings to bed early enough.
save me a seat peeps and not too close to the fire this time, last time i burned my ar, er arm.

Rips....as God is my witness.....my (late)Dad actually went on to be a successful business man....guess that was one of his first deals??

Glad I can laugh about it ay!!!

Sir Jim,

Couldn't agree more.....

We have people come back to our house just for another Smoked Back Bacon sandwich....I also buy all our bbq meats from there, by the time they've thrown a few extra bits on for you...which they always do.....it's just as cheap and as you say, better quality!

Rips

Rips...you got will power man...I'll be reaching for a cold one before I'got me coat off....lol

Now there's the thing Christophe .... one day I intend to write a book. Oh yes. Have dabbled in short stories and cherish those reject letters from the weekly women's magazines who took the time and trub to write back to little ole me with the "not quite what our readers want" letters.

So to spend time, blood, sweat and tears over your biography and then be told to cut, paste, chip and pin, chop chop chop .... I'd be gutted!

Best of luck with that!

And likewise for your Best Man duty in Ireland. Just please do a better job than the "Best Man" (in the loosest sense) at our wedding. He was so nervous about his non-existent speech (he'd planned to wing it!), he got so sozzled during the meal, then stood up, belched and fell face down on the table without so much as uttering a single word.

My lovely dad (also well on the way to a good hangover!) stood up and just said "well, how can I follow that" and sat down again!

Oh how we laughed. Eventually!

FNWC - yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

x x x x x

all this talk of a cold one has given me the idea of popping to the local off licence on the way home for a bottle of white wine for one.

Go for it Keefee....don't stop at just one tho'....it's Friday!!!!

Hi Deev - I have fully-written 3 novels on the laptop but can only get offers to publish them at my own expense - not an option just now!

If you're not already famous or linked to someone who is, publishers rarely take chances on new fiction, it seems. But ghost-written novels 'by' ex-page 3 girls come out all the time. Why is that, I wonder?!

[Sadly I'm way too old and would always have been far too modest/inhibited to go down that route!!]

oh well............

df

This is turning out to be Thirsty Friday....sun shining outside now and starting to drool over thought of cold beer....bit like Homer S!!!!!

Rips......now we are talking about page 3 girls(Df#30).....just gets better and better!!!!!

Mmmmmmmmmmm beer

DF - soz! But cad Fruit n nut - cant be beaten! Hope ur tooth is better soon..

and meant to say on other blog...yay to Tins! Fab news!

SWF have a fab weekend!

HL - if i`m not back..have a fabby fabby hol Ms Love... look forward to holiday pome on your return!

And CTD - stick your stories on bloggers FB page - we`d all read it! THink anyone who can actually write a story deserves it being published somewhere!

DF - when I was looking for books to take on holibobs, I couldn't believe some of the biogs on the shelf: the woman who won the "Who will be my Nancy" show?!?! Chantelle from BB!

I mean ... WHY????!?!?!

I did read Blessed by George Best when I was away - very hard at times due to the situ with my late dad and the drink, but an excellent book. He seemed so full of hope when the books ends in 2002. Some things just aren't meant to be though, I guess.

And can also recommend Pies & Prejudice. Just made me wanna venture ooop norf even more! Going to get Cider With Roadies at some point too.

Well done on writing 3 novels - that's amazing!

mSc x

Hi Scoobster,

Is Hazel going on holiday...you'd have thought she'd mention it

Rips

#37 lucky for you ain't it Bingo???

Grrrrrr! Don't you hate it when you quickly nip onto FB to check your messages, there's one waiting for you and they tell you they are working on the server so you can't get to you messages!

Can I sue ...... ?!?!

Deev x

aye up Rips - i`m sure she mentioned it in passing....! good for you hazel dear!

bit of help needed here pls..

I`m off up to Scafell Pike in a few wks and need some accomodation pretty close..anyone know the area/have any suggestions pls?

mSc x

Deevski....think you may have too much time on your hands......can tell the boss is away can't you....lol :-)

Friday first song request.
Fergus Sings The Blues - Deacon Blue.
Nothing better that a good parp on a Friday evening. I mean of the brass section of course.
have a grrrreat weekend all.

TB - first time I've been on there since lunchtime! I'm right proper busy, me!

Honest!!

;-)

Deevs

TangoBaz man, #37 aka 'a flea in 'eaven' aka 'a ain't goot a 'ouse in Devon' ....... this iz noot a lucky number for me Baz!!!!!!!!!!

22 iz me BIG lucky number aka 'all the twos'..... errrr 'two little ducks' errrrr 22..... 'nice ter know you times two'!!!!!!!

Baz - it's so lucky that this isn't a video blog or you'd be very disappointed! LOL

Deev n' Scoobs - My novels may of course be total and utter sh**e - and I feel strangely embarrassed about letting people I know read any of them, in case they tell me that they are! [Or even worse - think that and lie about it to be kind!]

So I always thought I'd publish them under a pseudonym anyway!

They're also pretty 'clean' - not quite Mills and Boon level but more about suggestion and summary than huge detail - because I found I couldn't write 'those' scenes at all convincingly - even to my own biased eyes!

I've only managed to get one ordinary publisher to read the synopsis of one - and they did the 'not really right for us' bit too! And I don't really trust the self-publisher one's judgements as if the author is paying for the work they do then it's in their interests to accept pretty much anything surely?

df

A a could so easily be a proffessional bingo caller!!!!!!!!

In fact a waz until a caused a BIG punch up a few years ago at me local bingo club!!!!!!

It's along story.... but it all started when 87 year old Aida, one of the regulars, shouted out loud for no reason what so ever during a game.... "what time iz it???@?"..... a replied with "ten too eight!!!@!"
Next thing anooothe regular.... Marjorie, waz shouting "ouse..... OUSE!!!!@!"
A tried ter explain when a said 'ten too eight' it waz only the time and noot '10, 2, 8' aka the last three numbers she needed for the jackpoot!!!!!!!
Next thing a full riot broke out..... a ended up in A and E and getting sacked!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes life...... can be VERY difficult!!!!!!

Remember this advice all..... if ever yer a bingo caller..... be VERY careful if someone asks yer the teeeem during a calling!!!!!!!!

Chow!

Hi Christoph - good man that Don. Now what can we do to get you back on the telebox, whilst remaining in your drivetime slot of course? I amongst others would relish that prospect.

I use the butchers in Cranleigh, the one that CLPs mum goes to I do believe. Great service nothing too much trouble and they do great bangers!!!

On that note, back to the tennis.

Pen xx

Don't you find that male authors tend to be more graphic than female authors? In my teens I devoured my mums Jackie Collins / Jilly Cooper novels, then read some Harold Robbins. He was far far roooder than the lady writers!

And I was only a little 'un!

Deevs xx

..even worse if you work somewhere that blocks FB...at least the bbc isn't blocked...yet!

P'raps so - although I don't think I've read any Robbins. And maybe it's just me who doesn't want it in too much biological minutiae?

I found it was easy enough to think a scene up but not to write it down in a way that didn't look like a prime candidate for that 'bad sex award' that they give at the 'rassies' or whichever awards ceremony it is!

df

My goodneesss just listening ter Bazza Boy from Watford on Wrightie's show..... the man sounds demented...... a know 'ow 'e feels!!!!!!!

Is it home time yet?
I have just typed a huge missive whilst watching a robin feed it's little one and the whole caboodle was done with my fingers on the wrong keys! Bums.


Beezer xxx

oh Bingo..............what a life you lead!!

df :)

oops beezer,

i find if i type when watching what keys i am hitting then i go all to pot, where if i look at the screen and type, i am 99% spit on.

Nick.

Beez

You can type and not have to look at the screen or the keyboard??? As impossible for me as patting my head and rubbing my tum at the same time (with different hands obviously!)!

Puff

Nick.

Puff - I rarely look what I am doing with most things !!!! Have little clouds floating round my head most of the time!

Blanche/Tango - fb not blocked cos work from home but went on once and it caused all sorts of problems with the server/firewall/security or whatever it's called. Couldn't get back on to the system and had to re-boot the lot - ooops!!

Beezer xxx

The blog has just appeared on my screen as MASSIVE - only on or two comments per page! Bless it, it must know I haven't got me specs on!

Ooo now back to normal. Did that happen to anyone else?

Hi Nickers me lad, a touble-free zone!

Hi bloggers and blogettes, how's everyone today? Been a while, a long while...

Loving the cap on Noah yesterday, soo cute!! Can I have one? A cap that is, for the boy, I have my babba already :)

My brother's just had another baby, they called her Aruna (Sanskrit for Sunrise), she was born as the first rays of dawn shone over the mountain :) So happy!

Oh and that cake, that was absolutely fantabulous!!!!!!

Lots of love to you all :)

And hello Beezkneez.

A x

Woohoo...just rang me two closest chums up on the off chance.....turns out they're free tonight, so are joining me and the CMM for a few beers and a take-away.

And probably a lot of Phnaar phnaar about how she could land one of them if she played her cards right and got rid of they're older chubbier mate (me!).

She'll probably bugger off to bed about 9:30 to watch something American she's sky+ed, leavung us to get drunk in the garden.....yeeehaaaa!

One question - If these two youngs bucks are such catches.....why are they available to come round to an old married mans house on a friday night???!!!

Party Rips

Hi Chris,

Good luck with your second draft - second time lucky, or for some is it third time lucky!

I'm looking forward to next week. It can only get better!

Thanks for your love and love you too.

x.x.x.x.x.

Oh Rips, you blokes and your phnar phnaring. With yer meat cleaver in one hand and yer beer in the other standing by the bbq...

Rips - you've hit the nail etc - because they're not quite the catches they'd like to think they are!

And you'll have the CMM waiting upstairs for you later - although if the beers have been flowing too much..........we'd perhaps best not go there! Have a good time, whatever!

Still 40 minutes to log off time...............

df

p.s. Oh and way to go Murray! Semi final next....

Nice one Rips

A (Boleyngirl)...sounds like you know me too well....scary....yes vinobaz night indeed..and going out with mate for Chickety Chinese...cooool...BUT with kids i'm afraid, to have to be half sensible..

boleyngirl and df.

keep your fingers crossed for me to get the ickle ones to bed early to join in later.

Nick.

Only half though Tango. One half sensible, the other, high spirited.

Sounds very scrummy Sir Jim, can almost smell it.

Ax

No colleagues to talk/walk with to the station tonight so I'm going to leave a few mins early, switch the mobile on to radio and catch the first ARF. That'll be a first!

Have a good FNWC everyone- I can hear the chilled white wine calling me from here!

Puff

Boleyn

Head Over Heels!

Deevs x x x

Hi Boleyn,
No bbq - but we may need to test the new Chimnea!

Deev - how are you getting on with the sunflower food.....what do mean it starved?!

Oh - and as for Elbow supporting U2....shouldn't that be the other way round?
Although, at least you can watch a decent band at Wembley and then leggit before Bonzo gets on the stage.......*snigger*

Luv ew x

Right - ho,

Enjoy whatever tonight and the rest of the weekend brings everyone....

If the boys go early, I may stumble into FNWC and knock a few chairs over before falling asleep on someones shoulder....

.....nope, no change there then!

Take care,

Luv ew

I think I can too. "Puuuuuuuuuufffffffffffff, Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuffffffffffffffff, hurry hoooooooooooome..."
