Alrighttttt whackkkkkk !
In Liverpooooool. Stayed at a golf resort last night. Arrived there late, left early - no golf. Now that is wrong.
In the gym early followed by a light breakfast. Will I make my Jonathan Ross Show ideal weight of 12 st 10 ? Probably not, but I have a new jacket which should just about sort out those extra pounds around the girth. Jowl-wise, I will just have to rely on the make up lady and an artistic bit of shading. All the tricks my loves.
Good fun signing again yesterday. Met more blogettes along with the mighty Rips.
L - R: Mwk, dreamurdream, chrisses, Rips.
Also yesterday evening in Newcastle - susanb55
Also been doing a ton of money-can't-buy audience research. Lots of people sad and sorry to see us leave Drivetime, but equally as happy to hear us in the morning. My over riding impression of all the listeners I have met though is how decent and positive they are - not to mention exceptionally polite.
Alright schedule today:
Billy Butler Show Radio Merseyside, Juice Fm!, a signing in Liverpool; then shooting a scene for a movie - playing myself; before finally off to Birmingham.
成人快手 tonight, meeting with 成人快手2 tomorrow re new tv project, warehouse signing in London in the afternoon, gym and then Jonny Ross.
Mange tout mes amis.

Thanks for posting our photograph on the blog! It was so exciting to meet you yesterday, I really felt like a teenager again! You are just so lovely, and you were wonderful with us loyal Bloggers!
Thanks to everyone on the blog who sent the Glasgow Four your good wishes. It was terrific to meet Rips and Dreamer - both of them are just lovely. You can't see from the photograph, but trust me, Rips has gorgeous eyes - he's a bit of a babe actually!
On the subject of Rips: thank you so much for paying for our drinks - you wee Sneaky Pete! Mary and I sipped our wine for ages, and then asked for the bill, only to be told it had already been paid! Thanks for being so thoughtful. x
Dreamer: I hope you make sure you have Copyright on your clever idea!
Well done to Susan getting the courage to meet Chris on her own, and of course well done to the girls in Manchester - isn't Chris just the greatest guy?
For the record, he is very tall, and skinny as a rake! We're talking skinny! And he's gorgeous - ooooh, I've come over all funny!
To everyone else still to meet him, I am so jealous! Enjoy your time with him, you are going to love it!

And from today, wahey, more bloggers! Great pics there, bless you CLP for putting us all up there (Rips, you look like you're fighting back a dirty great big belly-laugh hehe).
Right, off to do some proper work, since I've been on here for the last 40 minutes catching up!

Do you know what, I think I'd like to find me a "mighty" Rips (don't want to make you blush Rips) but you seem like such a decent fellow and they are very hard to find these days. Do you have a brother (younger or older) that you might like to send my way? xx
Bit grey in Kent and a little nippy. I've had to result to wearing proper shoes, which I haven't done since May, and now I have sore heels that I've had to put plasters on - I hate wearing shoes!! Next comes the tights, but am putting that off for as long as poss!

It's great that people are getting to meet our leader but I'm gutted I'm not one of them. Hoping to catch up with you one day Christophe, just wanna tell you to your face just how happy you make my days.
Off for lunch with my best mate and to open my birthday pressies as it was the big day yesterday. Decided this year that I'm not going to get any older, I'm just going to 'revisit' old birthdays. Yesterday I was 11 for the fourth time and we had jelly and buns to celebrate.

Chrissie - I contacted Hells Bells hoping to get something sorted that as many bloggers as poss could take part in for CiN / Drivetime / CLP. Sadly, my idea was a non starter for perfectly understandable reasons but Hells Bells put me in touch with the guy who organises the people who take phone pledges on CiN Day. Basically, there are now 4 of us (me, Gingembre, Bagpuss and Sexagirl) going to London on 20th November to do a stint of pledge taking for CiN.
So, so excited - really cannot wait!! May have to take the day off as unpaid leave but it will be worth it. Whether we get to see CLP or not, who knows, but just to give a bit of time for such a worthy cause AND get to have lunch beforehand with 3 fellow bloggers ..... perfick!
Crazy - you're welcome! And I love the idea of going backwards with birthdays, although being Forty-Onederful ain't all that bad, most days.

I hope you guys don't mind me saying a couple of things about yesterday: first, Chris just could not believe it when Mary told him Rips was in the building! He actually stood up to shake hands with Rips, and I don't know which one was more excited! Secondly, when the photograph was taken, I was saying, through gritted teeth "I hate having my picture taken" and Chris, through his gritted teeth replied "tough"!

I've only ever had one book signed and that was by Jeffrey Archer at a Foyles Literature Luncheon, where I sat next to Quinten Letts - oh get me!! My Mum does have her name in the Acknowledgements of a Midsummers Nights Dream (I think - will check), so she's a bit more famous than me.

Your book signing with Jeffrey Archer does sound quite grand - and Quinten Letts is awfully, awfully! Good for you!
The only other book signing I ever attended was with Noel Edmonds. As Hazel would say ..... that's not for here!

Sounds like everyone who's had their book signed has had a great time. Is so good to hear that Chris is as nice in real life as he sounds. His blogs this week are just going to get longer with all the pictures he's going to have.
Wonder how the pencil collection is going?

I watched Chris very closely when he was dealing with the Press. He was patient and very accommodating. Some of them were the exact opposite.
I honestly don't know how many people were in our queue (Mary and I were No.1 and No. respectively!) but I can say that every single person he spoke to had all the time in the world to have a chat, have a photograph taken, whatever. I really do feel that Chris would have reacted the same whether 40 people were in queue, or 400.
I do not like the red-top Press!

Sorry haven't got chance to catch up properly on blog, will read over tomorrow! Just back from work and about to dash back out. So won't be back on tonight.
BUT....I just briefly read ChrissieS's posts and I have this to say...
After meeting her along with MWK and Rips I would like to say that she is one of the nicest, warmest and friendliest people I have come across in along time! Immediately you trust her implicitly and I felt as if I could tell her anything. I would have abs loved to have stayed on with Mary and Chrissie for the afternoon!
But much more than that.....the one you refer to ChrissieS.....was recently referred to on Mock the Week by one male Scottish comedian (Frankie Boyle I think he is called!) as looking more like a Twiglet every day!!! Now nothing against this lovely girl, but come on, who want to be referred to as a twiglet!! He was not being complimentary! and the thing is every time I see her, in those hair ads that's exactly what I think!! Whereas you are just as warm as toast! And if we are doing crisp references then you're my salted tortillas, with salsa, sour cream, guacomale and cheese!!!! I just luv ya!

feeling a mixture of embarrassment and excitement over the photo on the blog. I hate having my photo taken but just had to do it to prove I really did meet the wonderful CLP. He is as skinny as a rake so no idea why he keeps going on about losing weight and going to the gym.
I think I am on some sort of cloud too and still can't quite believe that was me yesterday. You do come over all tongue-tied though. Maybe if we meet again I won't be so overawed. Rips obviously is a natural with all the celebs he hangs out with.

I read the piece in the Guardian today.
Stuart Jeffries asked proper grown up questions and your answers were very honest, even if they did show that in the past you have been not quite a nice as you are now.
It seems obvious that SJ liked you and isn't better to have an article like this than a piece of ar$e licking which doesn't tell anybody anything that they didn't know and makes the subject seem shallow and superficial.
I did try to put a direct quote from yourself into this post, but it failed the profanity filter, you naughty boy.

I'm so pleased that you're all having such a great time meeting CLP and getting to meet each other too. It seems ages since I last saw any of you. I wanted to get to Brum tonight but by the time I got in I just sat down and dropped off to sleep (can't be helped) so have missed out. I'm sure that Chris will have been a lucky man if Beez managed to get there as she's a top bird if ever there was!!!
Maybe if there is a big blog meet (as mentioned by Bingo) then I will move heaven & earth to try to get there.
Keep letting us all know how lovely it is meeting the big-man (and by that I mean tall!!) and share all the photos wherever possible.

Still - I don't care - what a great memory!
Thanks for your over generous comments Ladies, I felt like a thorn amongst roses.
I think Scoobs should also get quite excited by them, as Glasgow is clearly in desperate need of a decent optician.....
Glad you experienced the same warmth as we did Susan.
It must be a really odd experience for Chris - to be plucked from what is his version of normality, and then chucked around like a rag doll....having thousands of pictures taken, phones thrust upon him to speak to strangers, bloggers requesting all manner of bodily contact.
......actually - not that different to normal.
Chris - Enjoy the normality and bliss that is home life tonight - I am taking the 'mighty' in the best sense and once again thank you for making it such an enjoyable experience.
