Chris
You have to indulge in a bit of naughtiness occasionally,but I much prefer Noahs play station to yours.

Hi everyone have been busy so haven;t caught up with the blog lately, I've had my eldest son out here visiting so it's been lots of shopping and much bending of the credit card - but he's worth it!

I had a great time at the polo when I was at home, caught up with my good friend Mel (Gwen in Gavin and Stacey) and had a good laugh, picture on fb.

Have a good one all

Hi Chris,All looks very busy in the Evans household,we all have to be naughty sometimes.Lovely pic of Noah,Id like i of those.Such a beautiful boy.love to all.x

What's with the loo roll Chris? Are you reducing poor Natalie to tears? Give the girl a break!

If you only knew how excited we all are about this book. Will you be doing the promo rounds on the telly - Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross, This Morning, Loose Women (OK, maybe not that one!).

Lots of love,

xx

Nice One Mr Evans! Cant wait for the book, I am sure Mr Wright may even invite you on to do your Promo thing.

I knew it, I said it, still got the knack of posting just before the NEW BLOG.

Am going to repost what I've just put on the previous one, but in reply to Chris - defo give me the dangly leg seat with all the toys, and preferably not at 6 in the morning!

Hello.

I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

But not for long - just catching breath at home before commencing the northern lap of our Post-Wedding-Progress and then orf to sunny, yes - sunny!!!! - Spain on Wed - Viva Espagna!

Was thinking of renaming myself "Tudorwoman", but it doesn't sound like me. I haven't even decided what to do about my real name, although everyone seems to be assuming I am now called Mrs "Boleynman's Name".

Day was FAB, everthing we had dreamed about and more, definitely helped by the fantastic weather. A mate was filming it, and loads of it looks like a scene from 4 weddings/Vicar of Dibley - very Richard Curtis.

A few little thing went wrong but they were quite funny - will tell yer later. Promise I'll try to get some photos onto the World Wide Webster one way or another - might even include the vid of our first dance - cha cha cha hey.

Hope you are all tickety boo, don't think I'll manage to catch up, and that all is well in Blogland.

I guess Chris will have blogged while I've been writing, in time honoured tradition. Hiya Chris!

A x

Flower - ooops! Sorry love, obviously I've not been keeping up...(note to self, read before posting comment).

Hi Chris
Oh what an adorable picture - Noah of course. Bless his little cotton socks (other phrases spoken by mother available. Takes me back to when GD had similar vehicle. Used to bash seven bells out of all the furniture!

Can't wait to see how many this best seller sells when it flies out of the shops and into millions of Christmas stockings.

How about you hold a special promo do for blogland peeps.....you name the place and we can descend all glammed up for an after party to end all after parties. Deev - how bout you co-ordinate as event manager!?

Hugs n stuff

Steffi xx

Is that a cocktail shaker on the desk tray!?

S x

Big Chief CLP,

Love the photos . . .fair play to you . . .and . . . what is that on the table as well . . .???

IS THAT A TUB OF PLAIN CHOCOLATE DIGESTIVES . . .!!!!!????

Tut, tut, tut, 6 'O Clock in the morning too, far too early for such guilty sweetness!!

DtM x

Afternoon CLP

Hopefully you will come back to your old haunt and do a book signing, that would be great!!

Love the photo of Noah.

A - Glad the day went well Mrs!

Hello to everyone else.

Pen xx

Been busy haven't yet caught up with blogland!

Why have you got a loo roll on the desk ? Answer please,enough of us have asked.

Maybe to wipe their eyes after laughing so much - even through the re-writes!?

Steffi xx

Hi CLP

My ten pence worth - is that your house? How do you keep all the white, white with a little monkey? And please do explain the loo roll?
And why does Natalie have to kneel while you get a chair?

Please do a book signing event - I would like to come along and say hi in person

Super bp x

We so can't wait for that book Chris!!

Great photos - they reflect the balance of your life perfectly at the moment.

Boleyn - glad the day went so well, look forward to seeing the pics. Enjoy that sun in Spain!

Darce xx

No...it's to clean up tea spillage created by CLP.....haha x

Boylngirl - i have the same name change issue - I'm guessing for all intents and purposes it will be changed coz it makes life easier but I might keep things like my own back account in my name so I don't forget who I am - does that make sense?

Hi Baggie,

Yes it's tricky, I really wish I'd kept my maiden name 1st time around, then it wouldn't be an issue. But I've had this name nearly 17 years now, it's who I am. I think I'll stay Mrs "Boleyn" at school etc, but not mind at all being referred to as Mr and Mrs "Tudor" (not really those names of course). But then life confuses me at times with one name, so don't know how I'll manage with two!

There's always the double barrel option, but wouldn't we all have to do it or else we'd be "Mr Tudor and his wife Mrs Boleyn-Tudor with the Misses Boleyn".

Which is ridiculous.


Ah, tis so much easier to be a man in this situation.

Howz it going anyway Baggles?

A x

Hi Darce, Penny, Tango, everyone.

A- thought you only had to change names to protect the innocent...lol

Sounds a nightmare I must say....congrats anyways...xxx

Where in Espana are you headin'?

Right, that's me done for the day. Courgettes again tonight - this time on a kebab with chicken and peppers....yummy!

boleyngirl - go with what you feel happiest with. Looking forward to seeing pics. Glad everything went well for you. Enjoy the well deserved rest in Sunny Spain.

Have a great evening all, whatever you are upto.

Steffi xx

Boleyn - for what it's worth, I think it would be a lot simpler to change your name, lock stock and barrel, otherwise it sounds as if it could get a bit complicated!! You are so right about the man situation tho'!

Pen xx

Adios amigos....for now anyway...enjoy the eve'..

TBx

Ello CLP And ALL,

Bingo Star ere......

CLP - A most confusing blog (ter me)(don't take much ter confuse me).... At first a thought that wazza noot too clear photo of Tash... looking abit darker than normal, but then all waz revealed az it being your editor!!!!!
Then Noah.... a thought 'e waz sitting at Gorden Brown's desk.... aka control centre of the country and economy..... but then all waz revealed az it being Noah's new toy!!!!!! (Sure yer didn't nick it from #10???)

Ave goot abitta news mesen regarding books!!!!!
One reason why ave noot blogged, ave started writing me booook that ave been thinking of writing for years!!!!!
Always thought it wazza waste of time for me.... but Suzie 'as given me abit of encouragement ter just go for it!!!!!!
Write it for mesen!!!!
A suppose if it's a complete flop..... at least it'll looook ggod on me CV!!!!!
Actually thinking about it..... if only me future employers read it.... might be the last person they give a job too!!!!!!
A catch 22 ere.... but az 22 iz me lucky #.... maybe a good catch!!!!!!
Anyway ave started it but a can decide exactly what kind of book it's gonna be!!!
Whether it'll be a mad fictional comedy book.... or a mad comedy book that tells a story.... or a mad comedy book that's sort of based of things that really 'appen ter me in life... but with added mayhem!!!!!!
Probally the later!!!!!!
Anyway probally take me 5 years ter finish it!!!!!!

Az for yer booook CLP man.... very much looking forward to it!!!!!
A take it, it's gonna be an autobiography of the life and times of The CLP????
If so should be a most interesting read and yuv goot a buyer of yer boook ere!!!!!
A don't know where yer get the time ter wreet it but at least yuv goot yer ed ter 'elp you!!!!!!!

Ave goot a fictional editor in my book.... who keeps shouting insults at me!!!!!! LOL!@!!!!
Maybe CLP..... yuv noot goot a fictional editor but who also shouts insults at you!!!!

A finally figured out write me book first and try making music later in me life!!!!!
Finding other people keep putting barriers up with me music making and INDEED work gets in the way, so ave given up for now!!!!!
Noot that probally a can make good music anyway!!!!!

Tango Baz - Yes a most strange Sundee morning for me!!!!!
Az for the weather..... a know nothing about weather!!!!!
Me prediction of our brillo summer 'as failed!!!!!!!!!

Chow...... for now!

Thanks Steffi!

Tango - tiny town called Salabrena on the coast 45 minutes from Granada. It's on a cliff, the old Moorish castle is still there and there are dolphins play in the sea. Muy bien.

A x

Soz ave just put me #25 on yesterdee's blog by mistake!!!!!!

Boleyngirl - Glad yer BIG dee went well!!!!!!

Just beware of the gorillas and naked dutchmen!!!!!! (100% TRUE!!!)

More details termozza.... i'll tell all!!!!!!!!

Chow!

We've missed you Bingo, glad you're back!!

Pen xx

Cheers Bingers meladdo - the book sound fab, well done for making a start. I'm one of those people who loves the idea of writing a book, but it all boils down to being too blooooming lazy and having the attention span and the self-discipline of a flea (without the ability to jump many times my height, sadly.)

Can't wait to hear about the gorillas and the naked dutchmen!

A x

Ello Penny!!!!! Thanks.... ave missed the blog and all on it too!!!!!!

Boleyngirl - Am the same.... wonder 'ow am gonna finish it... but give me 5 years!!!!!

Az for CLP.... a just DO NOOT!!!!@@@!!!!!! Now, sorry know, 'ow the 'eck in 'ell 'e gets the time ter wreet 'is boook!!!!!
A suppose one advantage being in 'is position 'e can afford and INDEED attract ter get a good editor but being 'in 'is position.... 'ow 'e finds the time.... a just do noot now, sorry know!!!!!
A don't know all!!!!!



A don't know!!!!!

CLP..... tell uz 'ow yer find the time????????

Mind you..... CLP for the past year 'as been getting up at 6 every damn dee ter write abit of it.... so that must be 'ow!!!!!

But 'ow 'e gets the energy and discipline...... a do noot now, sorry know!!!!!
Know what am sayin'!!!!!!

PS Just 'eard CLP say 'is new car 'as a touch screen.... covered with fingerprints that 'e can't get rid of!!!!!
My new computer and mobile are like that!!!!!!
New technology.... always noot fully there.... always flawed abit!!!!!

It's ere ter drive uz all mad!!!!!!

A mean who wants a nice touch screen dash... or mobile covered in dirty fingerprints!!!!!!

But it's a fact of life.... we all ave greasy fingers!!!!!!

Modern life..... DESIGNED TER DRIVE YOU INSANE!!!!!!! Literally in the case of the car!!!!!!!

GOURANGA TER ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ave just come up with a theory 'ow CLP gets the energy and discipline ter wreet 'is boook!!!!!

Energy drinks!!!!!!

It's on terneets shoe, sorry show, know, sorry now!!!!!

Az for the discilpine of gettin' up at 6am... maybe it's precisely at that time in the morning 'e starts ter snore and Tash pushes 'im outta the bed..... and onter the floor.... 6 on the dot!!!!!!!??????!!!!

Just a theory!!!!!!

Just listening ter the bit on The Drivetime about The Guardian newspaper losing business BIG!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds ter me like the owners of The Guardian ain't guarding The Guardian well enough!!!!!!!!

Might sell a few more papers if they stoooped prinitng so much dooooom and glooooom about the UK and INDEED the world!!!!!!

A buy The Mail every Saturdee only for the TV programmes booook!!!!!!
Don't even read the paper anymore... why...... it makes me wanter top mesen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chow!

Very dedicated CLP getting up at the crack of sparrows. Sure it will be worth it. Can just about see Noah in amongst the toys - reet cutie.

Boleyn keep checking fb to see if your pics on. Look forward to the video too. Keep us advised when there. Enjoy your sunshine break.
Oh and the name thing - change it - don't use two - I did and half the time couldn't remember who knew me as what!!! Bad enough I'm known by my middle name - let alone two surnames!!

Deeply Dippy Deevski

x x x

Hi folks

I've been a bit remiss also, but felt awful last night, tried to make tea/dinner/supper, put it on hold, then eventually tried to eat it, and couldn't...I'll spare you the details!

Mr JG came back in at 9.15 asking if I was Ok, and got a resounding "Noooo!",so spent the rest of the evening tucked up on the sofa watching drivel! Apart from Uni Challenge! Wey hey, I managed to answer at least 10 questions, a first for me!! And he wasn't here to witness it, dammit!!

Have a serious backlog of work at the moment, due to the "swine flu" episode, and desperately trying to keep up!!

Also have my boss nagging me to take another exam, that I really don't want to take, but it's like, the last one I need...until they change it again that is, so expect a lot of stress from Jan to April 2010! Don't even want to think about it!

Right, mad dog making strange noises, methinks he is chewing off his dew claws again....

Hope everyone is OK, Boleyn, glad you had a great day, must get an intro from Beez! Have a good time in Spain!

JG x (hoping the weather will improve for when we go to Norfolk on 22nd...Not keeping my fingers crossed)!

Ooops, nearly an essay! Scared everyone off!

Hi JG - not scared off just watching a Yes,Minister special on GOLD+.
Fantastic - forgotton how funny it was.

You sound like you are under pressure and under the weather. Take care of yourself, and know your limits.

C xx

I'm watching the 80 at 8 on VH1 ...... fantastic!

Poussins were divine, salad was salady. With mayo, naturally.

Gawdon bennett, there was some iffy hair about in the 80s .... most of it on my bonce!! Ha!

Think it might just be a Dexter catch up night - by the time we get to the end of season 3, they will be airing season 4 !!

JG - sorry to hear you're not feeling 100% and as for the stress in Jan 2010 - we'll all be here to act as your shock-absorbers, so fear not! What's the exam in?

And Boleyn - glad the wedding went well - can't wait to see the pix!!

Tell me why is it I'm Digging Your Scene .....

Deevs
x x x

80s at 8 replaced by PS3 ...... booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

xx

Bolyngirl - although I am 100% sure I want to marry Mr bp - I'm not sure about becomming the little wife and by accepting his name lock stock and barrel will I disapear? Aslo my name is quite rare and his is common which means I will lose my uniqueness

I guess we will see how that one plays out but any little ones we have will get his name - inc the cats after the big day.

All plans I think are going well but I'm waiting for the next disater

Super bp x

PS - Bingo nice to have you back - I've got a couple of story ideas knocking about - inc a 20k word one I wrote at uni but needs a complete rewrite before I show anyone - anyone know how long a book needs to be?

SBP, I hated my maiden name, so was happy to change it! When I married Mr JG, I kept my "second" name for some things, actually some things still are, but it's a pain in the backside!

Have to keep sending in marriage certs years after, so am desperately trying to amend everything even after 8 years, so go for all at once, and be done with it!

I also have an issue that I've changed my first name unofficially too!

JG x

PS Crumpy, hear what you're saying, and am trying to keep calm!

PPS Deev, It's in "everything" to do with Financial Services, and as I only deal with certain aspects, it'll be really tough!

Yeah, Mr JG home! Finally!

BBL!

JG - you sure were not sharing a man - whenever Mr bo goes to work your mr JG shows up :-)

Baggsy / JG - now there's a thought ........ !!!

I too hated my maiden name - it lead to all sorts of taunts in the playground and was not helped by my Goth Goddess status in my mid-late teens. BUT when Mr Deev popped the question, it was a case of the lesser of two evils as my married surname is the same as the Headmistress at my secondary school - and she was vile with a capital V.

So, did I want to be my maiden name or the wagon witch headmistress????

Decisions, decisions!

Oh and at work today they were talking about changing your driving licence from the old style pink one to a new funky ID card type. Apparently you have to pay for it unless (a) you move or (b) you get divorced.

That's that one sorted then ...... !!

Ha!

Deevs
x x x

Deev

I have to pay for my new license to be renewed (its 10 years old) and get my name changed so I figured I would have it done all at the same time

Good call! I remembererer getting ripped off by the Passport Office when we got hitched. I never had a passport and when we got engaged, Mr Deevs mum lived in France. So, in order that she could check me out and I could meet the future M-i-L I got a passport in my maiden name in 1995 and off we toodled au Francais. Then, we got hitched in 1996 and I had to pay AGAIN to change it to my married name - same photo and everyfin!!!

Money, money, money!

Hello ,

Just popped in to say hi. Found myself in Jacobs creek again.....

Names and changing ..... been there done that , IMHO its easier to just bite the bullet and get it done , saves aggro and confusion in the future. Or ... get him to change his .....
MC xx

MC - tried that one - but hes not intrested in that

Hi SB.

mmm, well i had a pretty rare maiden name, so i know where you are coming from. I hope you have a fabby day, and see how you feel when you have time to think



MC xx

Well, heading off to bed now, managed to have a chat at least! Finlay being a pain, so out with him, and off to bed!!

Night all!!

JG x

Night JG, keep well, Am off to bed too.


Adios amigos

MC xx

Berlimey!

Have you all gone?

MTF.xx

Hi all, Baggy, have just discovered my other halfs grandmother shared your surname! Born in Marylebone, London at the end of the 19th century. married in 1907. Name Johanne. If you know of her, please let me know. Thanks.

Ta ta Lin x

How the heck did you find that out Lulu??? Interesting!

So sorry - did say I was going to be back - but got waylaid by an unexpected text! Had to have huge discussionon (fb)! Thank you best friend xxx

As I said earlier - being confused all my life with different names from infant school onwards - just decide on one and stick to it. Traumatic or what - first register and I didn't answer cos that was not my name!!!!

Saying that - private horrible (what I call hospital) visits every 6 months - my first name (wot I don't use) is used. Cheek - at my age and the amount of dosh paid over the years - shouldn't it be Mrs Beez??? No respect these days for age! Humph!!

Soapbox put away for night - gonna slink off like the aged old biddy I am!!! (wicked tho' !!!)

Beezer xx

Hi Beez, how are you? Went to see hubbys cuz t'other day, she is doing research and it came to light then. Fascinating stuff. Any more rats? My dad has somme visiting his garden, he feeds them his warfarin! lol

Ta ta Lin x

B T W, I hated my maiden name, so was only too glad to get rid!! Turns out it should have had an 'S' on the end which I would not have objected to, but cos of a spelling error when my grandfather was born, it got left off! That's Life I suppose.

Ta ta Lin x

WHAT..Beez you knows there is only one Biddy,Bids,Bridge ,call her what you like.

Your first name is my middle name.

my first name is normaliish but spelt weird so,never got mug with name on :(

MTF...xxx

he he Lin - warfarin - go !!!! No more dead uns - but rat man said we have the odd rogue - not infestation - either side of us swamped in bird tables and re-cycling food bins (rat man turned blue at this stage!!) so not really our problem! Oh Yes?!! How come we are paying then to get the "rogue" from under our office! Sigh ...............

I sometimes lose the will!!!

Beez xxx

MTF - my first name as in birth cert is known to none!! cept private horrible!!!
Beez xxx

Right - off to check phone places who can deliver in 8 hours - anyone want to help - I'll be here!!! Ordinary pordinary phones - not mobs.

Beez xxx

MTF "Biddy" goes to the oldest - not sure about Bridge so have to bow down to Annnie - a smidge older than me - (but madder and also has man in cupboard) should we deduct years for that? I do anyway!!

Beez,really sorry you got landed with a name you didnt like.

My Mum had the same.

Always called by her 2nd name as was my Dad.

Seems people used to pick better 2nd names than 1st.

Think I will stick with Mobile rather than Tooth!

MTF.xxx

Gonna call it a day now, night night ladies,

Ta ta Lin x

Night guys

Beez xx
