Blackpool Tower, Stoke, Tiger Bread.
Migraines and the now thankfully closed football transfer window. Plus much, much more.
Just another show at the start of another day. What to talk about, what to leave out, and who knew Bobbie Pryor - in with the travel for Lynn off on her jols at the moment - wouldn't give Gorgeous George (Clooney) a second look?! She's not interested for a second.
Sue Johnston is our guest tomorrow discussing, amongst other things, her autobiography - Things I Wouldn't Tell My Mother. Can't wait. Tune in or miss out.
Peace and love.

Pen-Sue Johnson is indeed a great actress and a very interesting person.
Ali-I also remember Chris saying in his column that George was sitting at Chris & Tash's usual table at the restaurant. What do you have to say about that Chris?????

Can't believe that you have only just had tiger bread Christof................. we love it in our household, with lashing of unsalted butter and a sausage or bacon. Yum Yum.
I am with Bobbie George has never really done anything for me, I use to love Terence Stamp it was his eyes that did, sucker for beautiful bright blue
eyes me.
Only 3 sleeps and I am off on me jollies loads to do and still got the packing to sort out.
Keith - hope things improve for you soon.
Baggy - glad the job is going well and you have signed up to the gym sounds like a plan.
Maddy/Penny - Sue Johnston I love her in the Royal family.
Hope Chrissie is not too stressed today and it looks like our Deevs is having a good holiday according to Face Cloth.
Take care guys

Me too re Brookie, I was bereft when it ended! Bring it back I say, it would knock spots off the shouty soap, which I haven't watched for a couple of years now. How it wins all the awards, is beyond me.

tiger bread - yum! Stoke - never been..ditto Blackpool! But George Clooney yes please!
And to add to the man fest i definitely need to add Daniel Craig to the list.. love him as James Bond but seeing him in leather chaps and tight tweed trousers in his new film last night has whetted my appetite even more! Even if you dont like cowboys OR aliens(see what I did there?!) go see the new film just to swoon.....!
Had the most lovely day off yesterday..spent the morning at the turkish baths with Flower and then we did ladies wot lunch at the famous tea rooms in Harrogate. A spot of shopping afterwards then Flower departed to York and I to home. Mum and sis called for a brew then the GM and I went to see the aforementioned film and for tea out too. The best day off I`ve had in ages.
Ali - good luck with the catering my dear... good on you I say and I`m sure it will be the best buffet ever!
Keith.. huges hugs my friend... you do so much for others its not good to hear yo down.. keep that big smile plastered on. And as for train set, of course! And lego..and a ride on car..and ..well you get the idea! x
Chrissie - hope you have moved in and all went swimmingl..cheers to your new abode!
Debs - sounds like you are having a lovely break..good for you!
Fairlyodd,Baggy,Tiggs et al..so good ot see you all.. and Crumpy!
So many of you lovely peeps on here..I know I only come on occasionally still but its so lovely to still be part of the gang.

My other half still giggles at it now. I dont know how Sue keeps a straight face on that programme it is so well written.
I am looking forward to the rest, just looked at the weather for the next 7 days and it is hitting the 31's so I think it may just be warm enough for us.

Missed the show this week, sorry. But I love tiger rolls - with real butter, cheese and tomato. Yummy.
Chrissie - hope all is going well and you can find the kettle.
CB - have a lovely holiday.
Will be listening tomorrow as I'm off over the rickety bridge to look after 1yr old and 6yr old, hopefully at the right time to hear Sue - she's brilliant.

What is it about September and the C word getting far too many mentions?! It's been mentioned at the grindstone a couple of times in my hearing today. I might have to start a swear box system...
In case anyone was wondering Tuesday night went quite well with my two appointments. Lost the match despite a good start, but made it to the reception in time for the buffet and fireworks :) Tonight I will have an earlier night and try to catch up on some of the kip I missed to be at both places!
Looking forward to hearing the Candyman tomorrow, this week feels like it's been a long one even though it hasn't. Must be lack of kip! No chance of getting caught up over the weekend, I'm off to celebrate a 40th birthday and explore the area while I'm there...
Hugs to all (and an extra one for Keith)

There is a real back to school feeling in the air so good luck to all those going back, going up and starting anew - big and little people!
It must have been OMG - The C**s word is coming day yesterday. We spent half our team meeting talking about what we want to do and I've got the job of going away and sorting it out! A bowling, eating and shopping day seems to be in order so here we go

Enjoyed our meal last night ,lots of catching up ,the food was fantastic ,I decided on the veggie option and it was devine. The ladies were great company too ,what more can you ask for ,and had some good news that one of the girls is getting married next year.
Nothing big as she's been there before ,but really pleased for her as she lost one of her sons three years ago in a very tragic accident ,it's been a long hard raod for her.
Right it's that time of day when I shoudn't be sitting here so..Off I go....

sun is shining here again today, had a lovely little trip out yesterday, still working out how to get the photos from phone to FB - and is it just me but can anyone else not actually see the screen on the phone (android type) when its bright? I was just "pointing and clicking" and actually some turned out OK!
Think I'll stay home today and tackle "the grass" - GD has not cut it for a few weeks and its looking like a jungle - so I'll be mostly screaming and dodging frogs later.....
happy aniversaries & birthdays to peeps and relatives - you too Tiggs!
Right time for a coffee I think,
Happy Friday everyone

Debs, I meant to say that last Thursday night as I got into my tent there was a teeny tiny frog waiting for me, in my tent!! I kissed him to see if he would turn into a Prince ;) Actually what I did was pick him up and put him outside - he was very cute.
Hooray for Friday's
