You should have gone for the Arsenal game .... 2-nil to the Gunners and there's no way that 2nd goal from Arshavin was offside ..... well, maybe a wee tiny bit. But a goal is a goal!!

Hope Tash feels bettererererer soon!

forward to, not for to, yikes, I wish my brain would wake up!!

Morning Chris,

Arh Bless Tash, food poisoning is not nice at all! I hope she feels better soon.

Noah is looking as cute as ever - mmmmmm mashed banana used to be one of my favourites as a kid.

And why is it than whenever I blog a new blog arrives! Happened yesterday and today!

AliB

Ah Christoff I don't know about the Karma Police, I reckon young Noah needs the Red Card for givin' 'is poor injured daddy the victory sign over the mashed banana. Hurrah bless 'im.

And poor Tash, chicken food poisonin' is a right nause. Literally. I've only ever experienced that once, when I didn't defrost a chicken properly and I swear I was shoutin' for Huey and fishin' me eyeballs out the U-bend for 3 days afterwards. Nightmare.

Clodagh.xx

By the way. Are yous still wearin' that plaster? I swear. The last time I saw a sight like that it said WHOOPS! on it and was marked down to 50p. Stick that in the bargain bucket, hurrah. Made a lovely bit a cracklin'.

Clodagh.xx

Aww CLP sorry to here things not all hunky dory in the Evans household. Glad to hear you're looking after Tash so well though.

Looks like Noah's enjoying breakfast with Daddy. If you need any of his Blog Anuties to come & help out, just say the word. I think there's a few of us who are a dab hand with the old mashed banana and we're all good at sticking the kettle on to support a frazzled Daddy

Now, just take care of yourself too, last thing you want in your tender condition is a dose of the poorly tum.

Seza xxxx & an extra X for Noah

Seza
Count me in for baby-sitting duties, I'm at a loose end!!

Tiggs xxx

PS How on earth did you find time to post your blog this morning?

Is Noah helping himself to mashed banana?

Were you planning on redecorating that room soon anyway?

Seza xxx

Tiggs

I'm at work but could drop everything for an "emergency" like that.

work............I remember that word!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH . . . . .

well said Dan!

CLP! Good Morning

Big Hugs to Tash hope she feels better soon!

I missed the Donny and Marie song yesterday - I got out the car to get some bits and when I got back in again I'd missed it :(

Han :)

I love a man who knows how to express himself!

Deevs xxxx

Food poisoning - not nice. Only had it once in New York after eating in a 5* restaurant, was rather poorly for the rest of my holday!

JG - oops, thought I might have got it round my neck! Apologies, but mayebe you could join in the 3 peak challenge next year, lol!

B's Mum, MTF and Annie - hope the chocolate was good last night! I tried Cabury's (other makes are available) Raisin Clusters - shan't be buying them again!

Billie - hope the wine & gin's are chillin for later

ASx

Awwww bless that little Noah cutie-pie! Send big hugs to Tash (food poisoning feels like you're gonna die!)...

I'm amazed that you've managed to not only blog but post piccies too. I hope I can still find time to stay in touch in such a manner.

Dull day but washing line full of dinky sheets for the cot-bed (arriving today now not yesterday).

Have a lunch time coffee booked with friend who was a midwife for years to ask for advice on home-birthing.

Hope everyone has a good day... I'll be back later.

Chris,

No way can this be Karma for poor Tash! She saved your life, matey! Tash - hope you get better soon - food poisoning is awful.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful photographs of Noah. He is a sweetheart, and I know what you mean when you say he does most things himself! Babies can be so perceptive - he knows things are different, and he's being a good boy for his daddy!

C xx

Morning all

Ah Christoph, mashed banana, takes me back to when you turn your head for one moment and you end up scraping it off the wall!!

What a little smasher, you must be very proud

Love to Tash, food poisoning is horrendous

Lyndy, not long now - 'citing!!

Overcast here today, with just a glimpse of brightness. Not looking too good for the weekend - boooooo!!!

Pen xx

hi christofflamiepie, just bought your book from play.com, simply cannot wait to get it..... any chance of gettin it signed???????????

lovin the show, but can't wait till your on at brekkie time

steve

Hi Chris,

love the photo's of Noah, hope Tash get better soon

Leigh

Best wishes to Tash. Had food poisoning with chicken myself once and it lasted a week - bodes well for you Christophe!!

Noah's SUCH a gorgeous little fella. Could almost make me wish I'd had a baby instead of puppies! (Don't know how I managed that, must be some freak of nature, ha ha).

Keep up the good work daddy, you're doing grand. xx

Hi again

Was just wondering. Tiggy, and other bloggers who are going to be lucky enough to get their book signed by CLP, will you be asking him to dedicate it to your blog name or your real name? In other words, will you let on that you are one of the bloggers what blog on here or will you be a bit shy about it?

Just curious

Seza xxx

Seza

That's a really good question!!!

I'm getting non-blog friends (yes I have many, contrary to the rumours!) calling me Deev now, and birthday cards etc even from some family members addressed to Deev.

I kinda like it!

And BLOG LURKER - you know who you are - you have had me in fits this morning, and for that I thank you!

Proper Cuckoo!!

Deevs
x x x

I'm gonna tell him who I blog as but will probably get it dedicated to my 'real' name! I wanna thank him for playing my Beatles ARF so I can't hide!!!

Seza, not sure yet, actually still not 100% that I can get there, but I won't know that until the day, but that's another story!

Mr JG still occasionally calls me JG, and I sometimes call him by the online name he used to use - not on here, but where we met.

Probably will just go with my adopted real name, cos I don't use my given name...

Confused yet??

JG x

morning all

Chris

I invoked the KP just last week when somebody hit my car in the supermarket car park and just drove off.

I will never know if they took up the case but I can only hope that cosmic justice was done.

Hi Chris, Wow what a lovely picture, not sure about the banana though!

Can you help a lady called Sara Tuppen who runs the Horse Refuge Centre in Kent, she has the largest Shire horse in the Uk at 19.6 hh only 1/2 inch to go and will be a world beater!! That's a big horse.
Sara is raisng money with the help of Martin Shaw and Jenny Seagrove by having a poem and reading evening at the theatre royal in Haymarket on the 18th October with the help of Bill Kenwright. This is a super Centre and needs all the help it can get, Martin Shaw has even ridden one of the horses?? Please can you do an interview with her on your show or Jenny Seagrove? www.horserefuge.org I know you get pestered all the time, but this really is a worthy cause that needs a good plug! Listen to you every night, great show,

Yo Bingo.

I watched that clip and saw it first time around too.

What MAD eyes that fella's got.

Twill be interesting to see how he gets on in fuure rounds.

Anyone who has Rips on fb, you have to see that clip that he put on.

Charlie bit my finger, hilarious.

Working on my ARF at the mo.

Gotta come up with a storker.

Have tried the ploy of picking one that I thought that CLP would choose, that didn't work and in all fairness wasn't my kinda music either.

Thinking cap on !

MTF.xx

P.s. We have all had/got Bingobellyitis here too.

Snot nice !

Ciao.x

some good news to share (men might want to look away now) Emo has had his little operation and has come round - hes fine and will always sing soprano? Poor little mite :-)

Sticky keys, future, not fuure, Doh!

EMO....Hugs littlun.x

Hi chris get well tash
chris chicken is the worst happend to my good self

Well chris off to work in a mo

Have a good show

I loved the photos

tash rest & chris take care

Kind regards
stewart

CLP hope the good lady gets well soon and you managed to get little Noah to eat all his banana and not have it all over the room and himself by the time he was finished

P.S in case i have missed this who is CLP taking with him on to the breakfast show???

Bingo, just glad I'd had my lunch before reading your post, graphic to say the least!!!

Superbp, Love to Emo, we've had many puddy tats who have had the 'op', oh and might as well include Mr P there - whoops that's not for here, so don't tell anyone!!!!!!!

Pen xx

I'll keep it quiet Pen, doesn't seem to be anyone else about, so I think your secrets safe.!!

MTF.xx

Chris,

I think you're being a bit harsh on your Tash, to say the least...she saved your life man!
Karma Police...now that is a good song...
I remember my (now not so) little one eating mashed banana - or rather spitting it back at me, little charmer!
Have you got a book coming out then; you never mentioned it!

Nic

Hi Chris, Poor Tash hope she feels better soon.
What lovely pics of Noah hes gorgeous,he s a big boy,must be all those
bananas. love to all.xx

I won't tell anyone either Pen!

On the previous blog I said that I would go to Fat Club this lunchtime well I did and the bad news is I've put on 5lbs!!! Not happy with that and it also meant that I had to pay! Still the good news is that it's motivated me to loose it before that dreaded "C" word then I can put it back on again during the festive celebrations....LOL. Looking on the positive side I have put those 5lbs on in the past year, so I shouldn't be too hard on myself - it must have been those Wispa Golds!

AliB

Chris

Have you upset someone at the Guardian.

I've just seen an article in Saturday's edition about the 800 books being published tomorrow, and according to that you will not be in the top 10 of them.

Apparantly you will be outsold by Freddie Flintoff, Peter Kaye, Ozzie Osbourne and Jeremy Clarkson amoungst others.

I guess we shall see.

Afternoon.....

Chris.....MMmmmmm mashed banana!!
That boy gets cuter every day!

And Chrissie is right, he'll know something is not quite right, and be better behaved because of it.......I had food poisoning/dodgy belly about a year ago, and the boy was fab for me all day - seemed to be happy enough in the playpen (oh they were the days!) while I lay on the sofa feeling lke death......

Hope tash feels better soon

ebx

Hi Chris,

Poor Tash I hope she feels better soon!

Noah looks very gorgeous in those photos, thanks for sharing them.

Is anyone else having a really bad 'hump' day today? Roll on the end of the week, this one's not going too well at the moment!

Love to all MCM xx

Barney I very much doubt CLP will give a rat's whatsit whether he's in the Top 10 or not; and neither am I, to be honest.

I'll be buyin' said jolly tome even if I'm the only one, whereas I shan't be buyin' the others because I'm not particularly interested in them. Just like I'm not interested in football, eating at MacDonald's, computer games or visitin' Lapland to find Santa.

The point I'm making is that everybody's different. And what a boring old world it would be if we weren't. So good luck to all of the above with their offerings, I'm sure they will indeed all fly off the shelves. But I'm guessin' It's Not What Yous Drink will be atop MY Top 10, which is all that's important to me.

(It's a good while since I read the Guardian too..)

Clodagh.xx

Oo apart from Peter Kay, will probably pick that one up.

C.xx

AliB

Pay no regard to the scales - they is an evil creation by the Lords of the Slimming Clubs Conglomerate.

You is gawjus, just don't go forgetting that!!

Now, where's that choccie bar ...

Deevs
x x x

Clodagh - Quite agree on the book point. Just read Pies & Prejudice by Stuart Maconie and Do Bats Have Bks - neither, particularly the latter, to everyone's taste!

Nic

Don't beat yourself up AliB, stay as sweet as you are xx


Pen xx

Thanks Deev and Pen xx

Pen #40: at least Mr Pen had the courage to "do the right thing"! When I discussed this option with MrS, you would have thought I had asked him to, well, give up one of his guitars! He ran a mile in the opposite direction - what a jessie!

AliB: well done on going to the Club today. If only I had faced my weight problem when it stood at 5lbs overweight!! You are doing the right thing, and you will feel terrific come C-time!

eb: I remember that when my daughter was little, she just could sense if something wasn't "the usual" and she behaved accordingly. Amazing really, and I am sure all babies are the same - they are too clever by half!

MCM: if it's any consolation, I am getting through this week, just hanging on by my fingertips - so I do understand!

C xx

Nic

I did Pies & Prejudice on holiday this year - in about a day. Loved it, and will be asking Santa for CIder With Roadies!

Deevs
x x x

Hear hear Deev. Yes indeed, Ali, forget the scales, and remember that Fat Clubs can be exactly that on the dark side. Dieting does indeed make you fat, and more importantly, depressed and de-motivated.

I was thinking about that after the doughnut debate last evening. This guilt that we all feel around food is rife and so pernicious.

The fact is that at this present time, we're all surrounded by and tempted by rubbishy processed foods. Even when we think we're eating healthily, we're often not because of hidden chemicals and unnecessary additives in processed food. The doughnuts are the least of the villains; doughnuts don't masquerade as anything else but an indulgence bless 'em. And there's nowt wrong with the odd indulgence.

I wish there were an easy answer to this problem but there isn't, it's such a complex issue. In fact, I think perhaps I'll leave it there before I get too boring or provocative. Just that, as someone who has battled-successfully, but still has to be vigilant-an eating disorder, I'd like to say please let's give each other a break and stop obsessing about our bodies.

Just respect them, and to those of us who have them in 100% working order, be bloody thankful.

Clodagh.xx

Deevs,

There is a cracking joke about Wiganners and pies in both those books - its the same joke but it's a goodun. Told it to my mate Big Al last night, who is a Wiganner and he liked it, so it must be good!

Nic

Nic and Deev. If you enjoyed that, there's his Adventures on the High Teas. Similar thing, v. funny.

C.xx

Hahaha Nic, ey listen up chaps, somebody told me that there was quite recently a Mayor of Wigan called Councillor Pye. Is this correct? And if so, how did THAT escape my notice? Hohoho I do hope so.

Clodagh.xx

Clodagh, You are so right as always. Although I have to say that WW did me proud when I lost all I did with them last year, and apart from the 5lbs I have managed to maintain it and still enjoy treats. I promise not to obsess about it and in the great scheme of things I am not really bothered about my weight, just glad that I can now fit into clothes two sizes smaller and feel a bit fitter.

There are certainly more important things in life to get worked up about and unfortunately we don't!

Onward and upward. Topic closed, I don't want to go on about it. Just thought I'd share.

AliB
xx

P.S. Thanks Chrissie for your encouragement.

#56 Well said, Clodagh. I'll let you into a little secret, Mr P is away on business, so whilst shopping in Sainsbugs this morning, I treated myself to a 'little' indulgence for later on. Am I gonna feel guilty, you bet your life I'm not, life's too bloomin short!!!!

Pen xx

Clodagh - Thanks for the tip and I will endeavour to find out if there is such a person!
Anyone - Sometimes the simpliest things are the best but also the most difficult to adhere to - eat less, exercise more.

Nic

Ali, well done and of course you're quite right.

And Chrissie, fair point. I'm sorry to preach at you; it's just a subject close to my heart.

Right. Will shrup now and buff up me dog-collar.

Clodagh.xx

It made me laugh the other weekend - Sky were covering a match from the JJB and at half time the conversation was more about the pies being eaten than the first half of the footie!

AND - my fave fixure is when Wigan play West Ham United, purely because the caption in the top left of the screen says ...... WIG WHAM

Always makes me smile!

Deevs, loving the simple things!
x x x x

peeeeeeeeeeeeees: will look for the other Maconie book too - thank you! x

Clodagh - Buried somewhere here is a mention of said councillor...

Nic

Nic THANKyou!!

Marvellous. Cllr. Ken Pye, Mayor of Wigan. Ah jayzus how did THAT get past me?

Musta bin' in prison. Let me see, when was York Races again...

Clodagh.xx

Clodagh: I really mean this - you never preach. I read over the blog from last night, and Croc was saying something along the lines of she's never met anyone on the net who is real. Well, I have had many a discussion with you, and if anyone is real, it's you.

When I read your post, I agreed with every single word. But, having known the misery of being overweight, slim, very slim, very fat, etc since I was 16, I think that if like AliB, you can face the creeping up of the weight before it becomes a big problem, then good on ya.

You are right though, there's no easy answer, because the problem is not on our hips, it's in our brains!

Thanks once again for your incredible words of wisdom.

Chrissie x

Whilst on the subject of appropriate names, there is a firm of solicitors in Warwick called Wright Hassall - you couldn't make it up!

Nic

Just thought, am I allowed to mention names like that?! Oops!

LOL Nic - that's all I get from my solicitors, altho they don't do under that name!

Deevs
x

Hey, there's nowt wrong with a decent pie!

Deev - now the DW stadium - where I have never seen so many pies being eaten by so many people in such a short time!

I must admit though Cllr Pye passed me by as well

JG x

Ah Chrissie you're so sweet. Thankyou.

But I do know my limits, and I realise I'm inclined to think I know it all. I hope, though, that I'm not quite stupid enough to think I can never be wrong.

xxx

C.xx

JG. Given that Cllr. Pye was the champion of the poop-scoop, I'd say you should be ruddy grateful he DID pass you by.

Clodagh.xx

So I hit the metaphoric post-lunch wall. What's a gal to do .....

Had some nuts (no choc, just hazlenuts)
Refreshed the water
Gave boss man an email with bad news, then ran
Now got The White Stripes on .... LOUD!!!!!

I need a Seven Nation Army in my life!

Deevs

Afternoon folks - another busy one !! Sunny and warm here but looks like I will be heading for drizzle and cold in Norwich this week-end! Boo.

Get better soon Tash - poorly girl - been there - had that (pizza) lasted 2 days with symptoms exactly the same as our Bingo graphically described!!! Drink lots of water or you will dehydrate.
Noah gets more munchable with every pic doesn't he? I'll volunteer for the babysitting feeding and playing but the other bits - erm no thanks!!!

Fat thin fat thin - yup - me too - slimmer of the year, month, or something like that in 1800 and something too!!! Must look at me badge ! still got it somewhere!

I love cranky names - the villages round here make me giggle - Wyre Piddle etc etc and the ones where firms do it on purpose - can't think of one at the mo but the TreesRus type stuff.

Eyes are beginning to close staring at 'puter all day so off for a Phoebe jog up and down the garden to wake me up!!

Beezer xx

And Nic, don't get me going. I LOVE people with the apt names. Am still delighted by your man there in charge of equipment for our troops, called Jock Stirrup. And the chap in charge of accounts at the sports firm that used to supply the rugby club, one Robin Money. And what was that jazz chappie's name, Claude Nobbs? Marvellous. Put me in mind of my old War Hero Granddad, who usedta keep 'is fightin' ferrets down 'is trousers.

Um, hello, modders..

Clodagh.xx

Clodagh, I think my work colleagues think I have been taking something, as I keep laughing for no reason apparent to them! It's not just me with these names then, thank goodness! I used to work with a man called Mel Head, initials M.T. And in another job a Gordon Bennett...

Nic

Right, I need to get gone, as it's getting a bit busy around here, with various footie folks. I bet these Germans are loving the Manchester weather today!

Is it me or are there quite a few different teams in the Champions League this year?

Catch you all later

JG x

Hi All!
Sorry for absinthe - have a note - too busy! Not caught up either apart from today.

CLP - sorry about Tash - look after her - whats with the broken rib? Anyone?

Also CLP - I am very much looking forward to meeting you in Brizzle next Friday too - Tiggs and me coming at ya - watch out!

Right off to catch up with whats been going on

debs

Hello Everyone

How's ya doin?

Just had a quick catch up on bloggy topics.

On the subject of indulgence. Think one of the best philosophy's around is everything in moderation. Don't make yourself miserable over it but we all know that if we want those trousers to fit we might need to not have a chocie bar everyday.

Clodagh -Just thank you for being on here. Can I order your book yet? Think that one is a sure thing for the top 100.

Laters. Lap top being hijacked & i can't even complain as supposedly it's for homework!!

Seza xxxx

PS Am very jealous of you all going to meet up this weekend. I hope you all have a fab time, so good that you decide you want to do it again next year when I haven't just spend 3 months wages before I got them!!

Seza xxx

Oh my goodness what a beautiful baby and like a minature Chris Evans.

I must admit though I prefer the baby sitting in Tootsie.... Dustin Hoffman is my favourite actor though.

It's not always about looks it's personality.

Afternoon peeps
Deev, loved Pies and Predjudice, too but a bit miffed about the description of Wrexham girls in the Chester/Wrexham rivalry thing. Hope I don't fit the stereotype!

I'm not going to get into the weight debate ....!

Sorted out the travel to meet on Saturday, but shocked to hear from Beez that she doesn't eat sweeties!, when I enquired about in-car refreshments.
Praps I'd better get myself some toffees, then at least whilst my teeth are stuck together she will be able to give her ears a rest!

ttfn, Crumpy xx ;o)

Crumps, I'm sure if you bring along some pork scratchings she'll imbibe with you! She'll need to build up a thirst for when we get to the place of beverage selling!

Deevs
x x x

Ha ha you two !!! Never need to build up a thirst for the pink fizz !!!!

Sorry if I shocked you Crumpy - not a sweetie person at all !! More of a sour puss !!!!!!! Go on - say it !!!!

Beezer xx

Debs2
YESSSSSSS!!!! Lord help him!

Tiggs xxxx

oooh I'm jealous that I won't be at the meet at the weekend... have a glass for me and send me a text or 2 pleeeezzeee!

I've just finished making changes to our web site and sent out a newsletter to everyone and feel like I've made progress today... just month end cheques to write and then I'm moving away from the keyboard (makes me unconfy to sit at the puter for too long these days).

As for unsuitable names I used to use a solicitor called "Mr Fiddler". You're right, you couldn't make it up!!

#54 Thanks chrissie, I knew this week would be a long/busy one and was doing great until this morning, but went out for a walk this afternoon and that made me feel better, I do firmly believe that a lot of how you cope and feel about things is mind over matter!

I probably shouldn't mention this but it can be just as frustrating to not be able to gain weight as it is not to lose weight!
I'm very under weight and am constantly being told by doctors that I have to gain weigh and my husband is very over weight and being told he has to lose weight!
I'm one of those people who can eat anything who everyone gets jealous of but its not as straight forward as that, I'd love to gain some weight!

Off out for a meeting (and another late night) so good night everyone!

Evening.....

I'm officially unemployed from today and it's move minus 4 days.......

I managed not to cry at work today....it hasn't sunk in that I'm really not going back!! And I know there'll be tears on Friday when we say goodbye to the childminder.......

Anybody got an inspiring idea for a pressie for her btw, I'm crap at pressies!!

Not gonna comment on the weight thing - 23 months since the boy was born and I still haven't shifted all the weight...the plan is to start running (again!!!) when we get to Plymouth! And I love choklit too much!

Phew!! Made it home, and just caught CLP referring to Old Traffic - how very appropriate!!

So, strangest thing I saw on the way home, a discarded toilet seat in the central reservation of the A580!

I don't do gooey sweeties but am partial to mints when I'm driving, especially if I'm getting thirsty.

The site looks lovely Lyndy, and I'm very envious!

How's the packing going Eb?

When we moved here I said I was never moving again, and we've collected loads more junk in the 7 years since then!

For a pressie, why not give her a photo of the boy in a nice frame?

Packing...JG.... Packing????????

All I've managed to do so far is a very big box of shoes!

I've got tomorrow and Friday when the boy is at the childminders, so hopfully I'll get it done then!

There is going to be alot thrown out/given away as well - how do we acquire so much useless stuff?

I was thinking a pic too...

It's hard getting back into the swing of it, Bridge. I've never been to France other than a day trip to Calais, and a skiing trip with school. Mr JG not keen though either.

We're away two weeks on Saturday to Pembrokeshire for a week, in a cottage again, so we can take Finlay. We're trying to (gradually) walk the entire coast path, not in any sort of order though.

Which reminds me, I need to print off the Hopper bus timetables!
