Hi Chris,

When our daughter was wee, we also took turns of being on duty - it has to be done, or you end up completely shattered! HOW I loved my turn for a lie-in!

Hiya Noah, gurgle gurgle to you too!

ARF....

Twilight --- ELO.

Dont know if it even on the playlist but will persevere in anticipation.

Morning all.

Facing today with renewed positivity.

Now CLP, about this car washing offer........

MTF.xxxx

Yikes whats happening ??

Mornin' all from a lovely sunny Dublin, hurrah!

Finally made it, bedraggled an' filthy tempered, after battlin' through fire, flood an' brimstone from practically on me own doorstep to HMS Hotpoint yesterday, hope it's cleared up back at t' ranch.

Big Brrrrrp hic back lo ickle Noah. XXX tickle pinchy cheek.

Ah yes, see, that's the thing. Along with the automatic omnipotence that is bestowed upon ALL us mummies at the point of the cuttin' of the umbilical cord, comes the ability to sleep through thunder, lightning and next-door's all-nighters. I can sleep on a washin' line in the middle of the rugby pitch durin' a hurricane if I need to. But the slightest burp or whimper from the ickle baby and I'm snap awake.

Mind you it's not funny wakin' up with a burpin', gibberin' an' titterin' baby daughter when she's nearly 30 is it.

And another thing.. am not aware that I ever felt like this before I was a mummy myself, but when I hear a genuine distress cry from a baby it sends me into distress myself, I HATE it. Not a roarin' tantrum, like; you know what I mean. When you see someone ignoring what is obviously not just fractiousness but real distress; it really disturbs me.

In fact. I remember posting that I saw the film Hangover and HATED it. And that was not just because I found it puerile, but largely because of the baby that featured in the said fillum, with the characters roarin' an' screamin' over its head, the child was in genuine discomfort and so was I. Never mind the film-makers, what are parents thinking of to allow their child to be used like that in films, soaps, etc. I certainly couldn't.

So there. As I say, I know EVERYthing. Hmph.

Ok, off to do battle with the Dublin traffic.

Mind yourselves,

Clodagh.xx

Oh yes, ARF.

Not that I'll hear it meself, boo, will be wrestlin' with Irish electricians or Craig the Superstar earnin' 'imself a slap, whatever..

Rock&Roll Music, The Beatles.

Morning all,

Lovely blog as always Chris, used to love those quiet times in the morning with just me and little one.

ARF Use somebody by Kings of Leon

Please

Thanks and still being nice

Propa x

Problems for me too this morning - working now though so all is well (apart from the result last night of course, but that's for another blog!).
Getting to quite like this working at home malarky, I can peruse the blog comments at my lesiure without having to worry about someone looking over my shoulder to see what I'm doing. Obviously the downside is that you don't really have much to comment on...although I can confirm that the house behind us ALREADY have their Christmas decorations up (sticking to the tradition of putting them up the last week in October....).

Anyway, ARF - how about Caption Beaky by Keith Michell? No particular reason....

Aaaah its playing up again. Just had a really old test card pic!!! I had forgotten about them.

Propa

Morning All,

Chris your morning with Noah sounds great and it's good that Tash gets to lie in now and again, she needs it xx

Well this is it from me for a while. I am Hong Kong bound this evening, I shall be purchasing Chris's book at the airport, along with Heat magazine and perhaps a chick lit to keep me going on the loooonnnggg plane journey. Still feel a bit ropey, but I'm hoping it's just nerves. Went to bed at 8:15 last night!!

Enjoy the blog meet in Liverpool, I shall be think of you and raising a cup of Chinese tea xx

Be good and if you can't be good be careful!

Lots of love
AliB

P.S. Darce, sending hugs and prayers your way, sorry for your loss xxx

Ali

Marian Keyes has a new book out!!! PERFICK for a long long plane journey ...... altho I have to ask Santa for my copy, and I've told him I'll divorce him if its not wrapped and under the tweeeee for me on 25th December!

Have a fab trip, relax and enjoy!

Cheryl x x x x

I love Marian Keyes - sorted!

Thanks Deev
xx

Have a good trip Ali, I'm sure the flight will be fine, so don't worry!

Glad you're feeling a little bit better too xx

JG x

Ali - don't forget tissues. Her last book had me in floods of laughter one minute and tears the next! Subscribe to her newsletter at her website - its so funny!

Cheryl xxxx

Ali have a wonderful time. I know you will x

Marian Keyes is always a good choice. Thanks for the info regarding her newsletter. Love seeing her whenever shes on with Paul O Grady, they have me in stitches. She must be related to our Clodagh

Propa x x

Morning - first time for me, finally got round to joining.

ARF - Love is a Battlefield - Pat Benatar just because I haven't heard it for ages.

Love the show, still gutted about my teatime company moving to breakfast though. xx

ARF Request

The Who - Pinball Wizard

Propa - I did actually ask CLodagh once if she was infact Marian Keyes. Like you say, incredibly similar humour!

xxx

Phew, made it!!

In a covert action, I sneaked up on the ´óÏó´«Ã½iD signing in page and took it by surprise, slipping under the wire at the last minute!

Determined, me!

Ali, Have a wonderful trip. You don't know how jealous I am, not just of your trip but all that alone time on the plane with nothing to do but read and snooze and people watch. Looking forward to meeting you when you get back. Travel safely

Marian Keyes, yes, love her. Didn't realise how much until I saw her on Paul O'G. Are we sure she's not really Clodagh using a nom de plume??

Right off to look busy, might not be back til later, will get logged out by The System and not sure if I can fool the ´óÏó´«Ã½iD guards again!!

Later Seza xXx

What a ruddy hassle it is getting on the blog! What is going on?!

JG: Thanks for the weather forecast for Liverpool - I have to confess, I was avoiding checking it out. Still, it will be terrific, and it will be warm and dry inside the pub! However, it will be a bit of a challenge walking round Penny Lane in the pouring rain (see what I did there?!)

Uncle Carl: I absolutely love Captain Beaky! That was in the charts when I was living in America, and my friend sent me the single. I was really homesick and that record was SO "British" it just cheered me up!

C xx

Chrissie - forecast is changing on an hourly basis, but still saying showery on Saturday. Sunday looking good and sunny!

I am so tempted to come back on the Sunday....

JG x

Morning All - gremlins at the beeb it appears - blog all over the place and phones not working!

Cuppa anyone?
ebx

Big dilemma, egg butties for packed lunch, no mayo.

So, used salad cream which is what we used to have before we knew better and enjoyed too.

Result, ewwwww, think the seagulls at Weston are going to be pleased to see me today.

Now then, back to store cupboard..

Shopping list, add mayo !

No, dont have time top make any, too much faffing about already.

Is that how you spell faffing or should I have used ph...

MTF.xx

Most of the faffing being, trying to refresh on here only to get ´óÏó´«Ã½ screentest up every time.

OOoo this blog is weird today!!

I'd love to play but it's am now typing in a box 2 lines high & 5 words long!!

Seza xXx

bet that's a bit of a squeeze Seza! be sure to stretch your legs when you get the chance .....

Afternoon , grey and wet here.

Well, I have just been invited to a corporate dinner dance tomorrow night, in Liverpool !!!!! Which does throw a few dilemmas for me.

Dress - need a dinner dance one , have one at home but may not be able to get into it . Do i go home and try it on, wasting valuable shopping time , or do i just hit the shops after work and keep the receipt? - nothing like short notice hey .

Saturday morning, do i sober up , and go home , get washed and neurofenned up, before heading back out to Liverpool. Or do i just go and sit in the Albert Dock, with me hangover and party frock on ?

Decisions decisions.............

MC xx

PS was meant to be doing the food shop tonight, but a girls gotta have a dress aint she ?

Hi Chris,

I came to your book signing at Smiths in Bristol. I started the book a few days ago and am LOVING it. I only get to read at bedtime and I always go to sleep with a smile on my face! I've nearly finished it though and am already beginning to feel bereft! You MUST write a sequel - any plans?

How about 'People Are Strange' by Echo & The Bunnyman for 1st record on All Request Friday?

Marie xxx

Well,what are we playing Deevs ?

Kathy, too many choices, but yes, get the new frock/receipt.

MTF.xx

Oopps MC.xxx

MTF,

Glad its gotta be a long frock, couldnt be doing with fake tanning me pins in November !

Well, for those heading North , bring a brolly and a survival kit . Its lashing it down big styleee .

MC xxx

Thermals might be a good addition the the wardrobe.

MTF.xx

MC Deffo new Dress, keep receipt, there's always takeaway!

Saturday, can you not wash in the Albert Dock? kill 2 birds with one stone as it were?

My ARF Elouise by The Dammed. You have to get to know me really well to know why that's a special song for me!

Has escaped ickle box................for now! We could always play Sardines!

Seza xXx

Arternoon all
Juts wanted to pass on to you lovely lot the humbling experience I have just had. Coming home from my parents house I go thru a sleepy Wiltshire town which is featured a fair bit on the news these days. Hit the back of a queue of cars and then realised what today is. I have just had the unexpected opportunity to participate on the repatriation parade for one of our fallen 'boys' in Afghanistan, never witnessed it before, seen the crowds gathered before hand but managed to get thru the town before the event but am so glad I was there today. All drivers exitted their cars, most wearing poppies, and bowed heads as Olaf's Union Jack draped coffin passed us in the hearse on the way to Brize Norton. No impatience, no revving engines etc, just people happy to be able to pay there respects.
For this reason, could my ARF choice be We All Stand Together as that is exactly what Wootton Bassett does on all these sad occasions
Sorry to go on so long and thanks for listening

Tiggs xxx

Puts it all in to perspective Tiggs doesn't it? Rest their souls. Huge respect for the support that town has, for the thing we see too much of lately.

Beez xx

Afternoon each!

Well i was going to be all smug and righteous about not having any problems getting onto the blog..and then i F5`ed and got that ruddy clown...i HATE clowns! So...retried and snuck under the wire with Seza..phew!

MC - definately a new dress.. has to be done! have a fab time! (and hope the hosp has sorted the debacle that is MiL`s op too!)

Now, kids..having none of my own but having looked after nephew since being very tiny (he was tiny..not me).. i know the `sleep with one ear open thing`..bizarre instinct eh..but clever really!

And books..Beez etc asking for suggestions... for you ladies who like Marian Keyes (and who doesnt?!) then have you tried Dorothy Koomson (sp?!).. fave is Mt Best Friends Girl but all are fab..and funny and sad..try her!

For Thriller typy stuff... Mark Billingham is my fave..have recurring character called DI Tom Thorne but can be read out of order too... fave is Sleepyhead..i defy anyone to spot the twist!

Also good are Peter James (particularly Dead Again) and also anything by Faye Kellerman or Johnathon Kellerman..husband and wife team who both write.

Lastly if anyone has not read any Ben Elton i suggest `Blast from the Past` to start with...followed by `Chart Throb`..a brilliant take on X Factor etc! He really writes well.

If anyone wants anymore suggestions then yell... my 3 full bookcases will yield more i`m sure!

Now..anyone looking forward to this weekend...?!

mSc x

will be a big one next with those 5 boys from yesterday Beez, will make a special effort to be there if I can

Tiggs xxx

Tiggs..an amazing experience for sure..and like you say..humbling. THank you for posting. (and hope you got on ok at horsepital!)

mSc x

Horsepittal was fine thanks Scoobs, was just repsonding to your post, have you read Marshmallows for Breakfast? FAb book too. Marian Keyes is an absolute nutter so yes, her and Clodagh could be one and the same (no offense Clodagh)! She's teeny, has a lovely tinkly Irish voice and is mad as a box of frogs and still has no idea why people buy her books!
Tiggs xxx

Tiggs - Thank you for sharing xx Our thoughts are with all our fallen heros and their families xx Very relieved my nephew came out of the Army, although he did have a posting to Afghanistan before leaving!

Mary xx

Scooby - Like Dorothy Koomson too, loved My Best Friends Girl haven't read any of her other books yet.

Oh, Christoff, you are a good Daddy and hubby! Our baby Highland lass is still being a nightmare through the night, and we really are sticking with routine - I'm pinning my hopes on cranial osteopathy next week! Will keep you posted!

We should be on the road to Oban by the time Drivetime starts - have a school pal's wedding on the bonny Isle of Mull at the weekend! Should be a brilliant ceilidh! Eldest Highland lass has a thing about ferries, and I've a feeling she's more excited about that than the wedding! Weekend starts here!!

Huggles

Susan

Tiggs #61: what a beautiful comment from you. You must have felt that was such a privilege. I had read this recently about Wootton Bassett - what a wonderful way the people of this town conduct themselves. xx

Scooby #63: Absolutely loved Chart Throb - I would imagine this is exactly how X Factor operates!

Debs/Cheryl: #57, 58, 59: I'm totally out of the loop - what happened?!

C xx

Tiggs..yes,have read Marshmallows for Breakfast..dont you all just want a man like that really?!

MwK.. get the others..have read them all and they are all brilliant.. think she has a new one out too..must check download situation for that!

mSc x

PS -the GM served in the Army for 7 years..during the N Ireland worst years he did 3 tours there and lost a couple of mates.. left just before the first Gulf War..so glad he did. x

Ooh..box gone all small and funny now..what IS going on with this today..thought it was mischeivous night LAST night!

Chrissie..glad someone else enjoyed Chart Throb..mingers,blingers and clingers..genius IMHO!

mSc x

HLS...have a FABBY weekend! Sounds a blast! And hope you get some sleep soon!

mSc x

PS - if you F5 and get that painted face thing then just click on the address on the address bar..updates you and brings you right back here...sorry if that sounds obvious but took me a bit to figure!

PPS - AliB..have a fab time! x

I love Ben Elton's books. Inconceivable was really good, Dead Famous, Chart Throb .... love 'em!

Chrissie - Debs sent me a rather distracting pic of the divine Howard Donald, which I have since been informed by an "expert" is airbrushed .....

I think not!

Deevs
x x x

Tiggs, I saw on the news earlier that it was the funeral today in Cowdanbeath, Fife, of a Corporal from the Black Watch who are based just outside Inverness. He died after being wounded in Afghanistan about 6 weeks ago. They played a recording of The Green Hills Of Tyrol as he was carried from the church - broke my heart!

And which part of his anatomy `may` have been airbrushed Deevs..?!

mSc x

none of it scoobs - it's all flippin' perfick!! don't trust the "expert" !!

x

Cheryl: Ahhh, I see ..... I did assume it was a private conversation between you and Debs!

Susan: that would have broken my heart too. In fact, the whole situation is now becoming so desperate, isn't it?

Tiggs: still thinking about your post - and I would like to say to CLP, for ARF - We All Stand Together xx

C x

Tiggs, thanks for your post. Watched a programme recently called Wounded, about 2 soldiers who came back from Afghanistan severely wounded, it was so humbling to see them, their determination and bravery was amazing, the whole way through myself and David had tears rolling down our faces, respect to all those who serve!!

X

Gail.

I was just losing the will to live here in my orange box/cell, then I looked at the clock and thought to myself, hmmm, this time tomorrow i'll have broken the back of my journey norf and be an hour away from Liverpool.

Then I googled a 5 day forecast for the aforementioned city - it's changed from Biblical rain to light showers on Saturday and sunshine on Sunday.

Then I remembered it's The Restaurant on the tellybox tonight!

Maybe life's not so bad afterall.

Deevs

Hi All

Tiggs, what a privilige to be part of that tribute. We shall be "on parade" on Sunday. The boys' Scout troop take part in the town rememberance parade which is in the afternoon and have asked to go to the church parade in the morning. A small thing but we can do it so we will.

This blog today (and the diversion to Marian Keyes site) have given me so many suggestions for new books and authors, thanks everyone

Seza xXx

Deev - great minds - I have just done exactly the same thing !!

Beez xx

Hi all,

Not at all caught up on all the posts today but wanted to wish those travelling up to Liverpool tomorrow a safe journey and can't wait to meet you all in the flesh on Saturday.

Hope everyone OK, it's dark and wintry here (an hour away from Liverpool) so thermals and waterproofs at the ready!

Daisy x

Sounds good Deevs.

Just out of interest (& in anticipation of another chance) how long will it take to get there, where will you go from & via & is it very expensive?

Seza xXx

when I was a guide (senior patrol leader at that) I was always standard bearer on Remembrance Day, felt so proud to be stood at the front of the church in my uniform

Tiggs xxx

Feel like a bad mum now, at 2.30 this morning woke with 7 year old crying down my ear he'd been calling me for an hour and I hadn't heard a thing, this is the first time ever that has happened - what a guilt trip I am on today. Spent half an hour with him soothing growing pains in his leg, poor wee soul. Eventually, and with the aid of painkillers he went back to sleep until 7.30 this morning.

Hope my open ear doesn't let me down again, was shattered last night and must have been in a really deep sleep.

Daisy x

Chris what a wonderful Dad you are. In my day when my babies were babies it was the womans job, well that's what i used to get told anyway! And I was a baby boomer as well when we were all liberated in the 60's. Didn't happen in my house though exH hardly knew where the fridge was!

Have a lovely time in FAB 4 country you lot in case I do not get back on here.

If you wana Rock ARF just has to be LA Woman the Doors

ARF - Help - The Beatles

(To HELP me find the way from Lime Street to Chrissie S, MwK and Annie on Saturday afternoon - should be fun!!!)

Daisy x

Seza

Leaving Coooooooooooooooolchester on the 13.03, into Liverpool Street, taxi to Euston (I don't do the underground on my own, esp with a case), then from Euston to Lime Street Liddypool, arriving at 5.15.

Ticket prices - my outbound was an apex and cost £11. My return is an open one, valid for a month after arrival (now there's a thought ...) and all in the rail tickets (inc underground gate pass) came to £82.

And then there's the million pound coins I've been saving for the very hungry car park machine at the station. I love the fact that my ticket from Col-Liverpool was £11 but it's gonna cost me £15 to park the car til Monday night!

Cheryl x x

Alternative ARF (but maybe not 'rock' enough) - Lily the Pink - The Scaffold

Just 'cos it's fun!

Daisy x

Daisy: Hope you have a good trip too, on Saturday. Mary and Annie are really looking forward to meeting you, and of course, I can't wait to see you again!

Re: being a bad mum: take a number! I remember when MsS was just a tootsie and wasn't well one night,I slept through the entire episode! Normally, I would have been out of bed like a shot, but I slept the sleep of Kings, while she cried and fretted .... until in the distance, I heard her cries. I felt like a criminal for a week, so I know your pain!

Cheryl: thanks for the update on the weather for the weekend. Shall I take my wellies out of my case?!

Fantabulous!!

Not only does CLP dedicate the show to mrssootycat, he then opens the show with Diamond Dave!!!

Hi all

Left work at 4 to get home to let Finlay out before the fireworks, but the plan almost backfired, as I got stuck in traffic, didn't get home until 5.25!

Luckily not too many going off here yet!

It's not that stoopid dog is afraid of them, it's that once they start he runs around the garden barking at them and won't come in until they stop. Given the weather, the garden is muddy enough, without him charging around like a lunatic all night!

Anyway, hope all the travellers tomorrow have a good trip, especially those driving, it's gonna be wet again, so be careful! Hope all the trains run to plan as well, leaves on the line and all that!

JG x

Oh, well I killed the conversation off!

Hiya

Deevs, sounds like a good plan. Sad as i am, actually quite jealous of you having all that time just sitting on a train woth no one to bother you. Bliss

Travel safely every one who is travelling anywhere this weekend especially your Liver Birds!

Hi Seza and Bingo!

Doggie is mad for going out, I'm having a nightmare! He's not allowed in the lounge, cos the fish are there and might jump up at the tank, so he's stuck in the kitchen and dining room, and trying to get out the back door!

Fish are fine, doing well, and not interested in fireworks thankfully!

How's you, saw about the church/scout thing...used be a guide and was always proud to do it, even if most years we froze!!
