One thing I dont miss, is Friday traffic.

Good luck Chris.

Happy Birthday to Hannah :)

Hey Chris, I heard most of the Matt interview - he will always be joey to me though! Gonna see if I can track down episodes - the couple of clips I've looked at today look good!

Right downhill to 5pm all the way!!!!

Have good weekend one and all. Good show today Chris, Matt was a nice guest. Also,when is Noah,s brother coming into the world - please tell us soon.

Boo to the traffic Chris! From the sound of your Fridays, that's the last thing you need!

I've just been told about something that's going to happen at the boys school and I'm really excited but I'm not meant to tell anyone - well, no one to do with the school until it's announced officially!

If I say it is about someone who is going to come to the school, give talks to the kids and to the parents - who i think will be even more excited than the kids and it's been organised by the maths dept, can you guess who's coming?

I'm up for front row seats!

Hi Chris: ooooh, broke my heart this morning to tear myself away from you, just before the lovely Matt joined you! Will be listening in over the weekend. Sounds like a nightmare journey for you this morning!

Bids: hope you have a terrific weekend. xx

Debs: Crumpy was saying yesterday that Episodes is being re-run on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ4 at the moment. All episodes of Episodes (!) available on iplayer at the moment - don't miss this, it's brilliant!

Sezza: if it is, who I think it is, please get me a seat!

Han: Happy Birthday to you! Hope you are having a great day.

This weekend sees me at the hairdresser tomorrow morning - cut and colour, hate it, hate every single second! And then, meeting up with our lovely Mary. Yes, wine will be consumed, but we have been fairly well-behaved in recent times - honest!

C xx

Chrissie have a lovely meet with Mary, Sezza is it a certain foxy proff? if so get me a seat too!

Will look on GDs m@c for episodes Chrissie, cant do i-player on work lappy booo and then find them on b4.

Enjoyed Matt this morning - how deep was his voice :) yum yum ;)

Sezza, I know, I know - Think of a number? xx

Chrissie, Give Mary a hug from me and Mary, Give Chrissie a hug from me xx Have a lovely time ladies.

I'm off to my bestest mates in a mo for "us" teas and then to Street Pastors about 9:30. So hopefully a lie-in tomorrow and not much else. Bit of tv catch up, housework, washing etc.

Have a good one everyone.

Ooh Sezza does his daughter work at Radio2?

Afternoon everyone - dull but at least not raining here today, thank goodness.

Bids I just know you will have a fab time.

Love and hugs to all and Happy Birthday to Han xx

Hello CE & Everyone.

No rain today! I can see clearly now the rain has gone.

You certainly do need such a lot of patience on the roads Chris but as someone who has suffered a heart attack I can report that stress is not the only cause (in my case it was a lung illness that caused it). By the way why on earth did we have a number to call at end of Corrie last night because a fictional character had a heart attack? We get all kinds of helpline numbers following all the soaps, are they mad and does anyone actually call these numbers? "Oh please help me I'm suffering from shock as Audrey has had a heart attack".

Right, I'll get off my soapbox now!

Sezza- Could it be Johnny Ball, the maths expert. Me & Bingo (and some others) have met him and had lunch with him (long story). Also there was Denis Law. It was fun!

***Happy Birthday Lin***

B****r just typed another post and it's disappeared!!

Anyway Chrissie I love going to the hairdressers so just try to relax into it. Say Hi to Mary for me and looking forward to seeing you in June. I am sure you will both have a wonderful afternoon.

Right this isn't getting the dishwasher emptied - ooh get me!!

Sus xx

Afternoon everyone

Maddy - plenty of rain here. It's not stopped all blimmin' day. Even the puddles have got their own puddles now.

Sezza - is it Mr Think Of A number himself!?!!? Zoe's auld man!?!?! Cooooooolio.

Chrissie/Mary - have a lovely time tomorrow. Best stay indoors so as not to get the new hair-do wet in the rain!

Hi's and huggles to everyone else. Sorry, my brain's not functioning very well today - drastically running out of headspace and my coping mechanism is about to go booooooooooooooooom.

Just before I go - Sezza, has Gibbs discovered his reflection yet? Randall keeps seeing himself in the patio windows and now thinks there's another one of him living in the dining room. We've just been outside for a wee and he was nose to nose with the patio window, barking at himself ...... dufus dog!

Right, I'm going to make a conscious effort NOT to put my laptop on at all over the weekend if I can help it (well, maybe Sunday afternoon ....), so I'll say have a great weekend to you all, and here's hoping we don't all contract Trenchfoot by Monday.

Muchos Amore,

Deevs

Ooops, sorry - me again

Just to say Episodes was abslutely fantastic! Proper funny. Please, please try and catch it on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ4 or the iPlayer and I will definitely be setting the Cloud+ to series link 2 weeks tonight.

x x x

It IS Mr Think of a Number himself!!!! I'm not sure the kids will know who he is - hopefully good old YouTube will help out there - but I'm sure the parents will!!!

Deevs, Gibbs stands and looks out as if to say Who is that dog out there!! Mind you, he was funny at puppy playschool last night. There were 3 other puppies there - all bigger than him. While they were on leads he was all barky and loud and let's play. Once we took the leads of he was more No, I'll just watch those big dogs from behind your legs Mum!!

Ali, hope you have a nice peaceful night with the Street Pastors

Maddy, You do get about don't you!

Susan, I like going to the hairdressers too. Hope you are getting settled into the new place now?

Right, now puppy asleep on my feet!!!

Evening each from sunny Fife

Missed Matt this morning by about 5 minutes. And Chris, tell me about traffic chaos!! The building of the new bridge has brought about thoosands of traffic cones, 40 mph average speed cameras, queues and more queues in the morning. When you hear the traffic report about the M90, that's the road to the bridge - and I'm usually on it!

Anyway, had lovely day with 1yr old and afternoon with him and his brother the 6yr old. We sat in the garden in the sun, well I did and the boys grubbed about with snails, worms etc. What is it with boys?

Back in a bit when I've caught up.

xxxxx

Ok, I've caught up on this page. Chrissie, have a lovely time with Mary tomorrow - and yet again I'm not invited - jealous? Moi??? Really, only joking - I'm off with daughter and family to visit stepdaughter and her 6 week old daughter, then Sunday off to visit eldest son and family.

Ali, hope your night is quiet

Deevs, Chrissie and Mary won't need to stay indoors tomorrow - our weather forecast looks good. Sorry to all those who are experiencing a deluge.

Sezza, I'm so jealous of your puppy

Susan, looking forward to seeing you in June

Debs, you got the penguin out?

Hellooooooooooooo to everyone else.
xxxxxxx

Evening peeps,

Heard a little bit of Matt Le Blanc this morning, his voice was a whole lot deeper than when he was Joey! I used to love Friends and would sit down religiously every Friday to watch it. I can't believe it's been 18 years since it started.

Did anyone else see Bill Bailey on The One Show? I had no idea he was such a talented keyboard player!

Looking forward to 3pm tomorrow, at which time I will have finished work for 11 days holiday. Planning a few days out, a few jobs around my flat, culminating in a trip to Loch Ness for my Birthday, which is on the last day of my holiday.

Rx

I saw Bill Bailey Rosie - very clever keyboard player.

Having Amazon problems at the moment - someone is trying to change my password - and it's not me!!!! The support team are being very helpful.

xxxxx

Twenty one today, twenty one today
I've got the key to the door, never been twenty one before.

All the twos, twenty two.

Look at me, I'm twenty three!

Just one more, it's twenty four!

I am live at twenty five! Had a great Friday, which was made ever better by news of a call from Radio 2......I am gonna have a GREAT weekend as a result!!! x

Congratulations Berni!

Enjoy your weekend :)

26!

Twenty seven, I'm in heaven.

Twenty eight, it's getting late!

Twenty nine, I'm feeling fine.

30!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thirty one, oh what fun.

Thirty two, over to you!

Thirty three, it must be me.

Thirty four, the luck of the draw!

Thirty five, so glad I'm alive

Thirty six, such high kicks!

Can't think of another rhyme for seven.

You can't do heaven again, maybe eleven?

I'm running of rhymes too.

38! It's very late!

Thirty nine, too much wine.

Off to bed.

Nighty night

Forty!!!!!

Nighty night MBD

Hi everyone, and Happy Saturday!

Up early this morning - I have already listened to Aled from last Sunday - Jimmy Osmond is just one of the most gorgeous people on the planet - imho!

Now listening to Chris from yesterday - Candy Man just about to begin ... and then the gorgeous Matt - it's all good!

Sezza: oooh, I love Mr Ball - he will be terrific to listen to - I hope you get to meet him, and say hello. Lovely story about Gibbs - what a sweetheart.

AliB: I will indeed pass on your hug to Mary. I hope last night went well at Street Pastors. xx

Maddy: I totally agree about the Soaps and helpline numbers. As you know, though, some people (bless their cotton socks) actually think these soap characters are real!

Susan: I will try to enjoy the experience this morning at the hairdresser - I had to say to them the last time - please DON'T give me a head massage! I know I am in the minority with this! I will pass your wee message to Mary. xx

Cheryl: thank you. xx How sweet about Randall and his reflection! I well remember our lovely wee cat Toots - he would absolutely flip every time he saw his reflection, bless!

Annie: oooh, I feel terrible! Next time - you have to be there!

Rosie: Bill Bailey is just so talented - love him. I hope you enjoy your holiday time - just great to have a break, isn't it?!

Berni: welcome to the blog. And, well done .... whatever has happened!

CB: I did mean to say to you the other day - welcome back!

Right, cup of tea, Matt Le Blanc, and then on with the day! Have a great weekend, everyone.

C xx

Morning All and Chrissie, early bird!

Try and enjoy your hairdressing trip but make up for it with your time with Mary, raise a wee glass to me!

Nothing to report, going to be another wet and windy couple of days here, so I will be hunkering down and catching up with some DVDs, GD has been buying a few recylced ones for £1 and one is the Marilyn one so will be giving that a go.

Also going to see if I can find episodes on i-player....

right time for a coffee
Have a great weekend everyone

Good day everyone,

So annoyed that I didn't get to hear MLB on the radio yesterday, no chance of listen again with our dial-up internet connection - bums as Annie would say.

I will have missed you by ages Chrissie, but I hope you and Mary have a lovely afternoon and I am with you on the head massage thing, I used to sit there cringing every time until I plucked up the courage to tell my hairdresser I hated it!

Nothing to report from here, just popped on whilst waiting for my Mum to appear, normally she spends Saturdays with her sisiter (my aunt), but she's in Dubai just now visiting her daughter (my cousin who lives there), so she's coming over and we'll take the dogs a walk then have coffee. Dry and very windy here, 3 loads of washing, dried, ironed and put away before lunchtime, Ash ridden and housework done. This evening we are going to our favourite sit-in chippy for dinner with Mum, Dad and my Brother so that should be yummy!

The cats are going stir crazy as we have BT guys here to put up new poles and my biggest fear is the cats going into their vans or lorries and disappearing, never to be seen again, so I have shut them in and they hate it.

Hope you all have a good day.

Hello everyone
public announcement notice time!
I've just had an email about CARFEST!!!
It says that people who have "south" tickets will be able to swap for "north" tickets on Mon/tue next week, which I guess means that if people do that there will be some more south tickets available!!!

I'm sticking with what I've got though.

And the dates are confirmed as 8/9th September

Happy Saturday everyone

@Chrissie-S & maddymoon - thanxalot for the welcome! Chrissie - I am intrigued to hear what you made of Matt LB??!

Afternoon All,

The rain continues to persistently fall down here!!! Only had to nip out for a paper and have spent the rest of the day snuggled under a blanket on the sofa (after the chores) also managed to sneek in a quick nap :)

Thanks for the good wishes re Street Pastors, there weren't any major events.

Debs, I am glad to hear that they are allowing people to swap their tickets. I'd be a bit cheesed off if I lived up north and had a ticket for the south, so glad they've thought of that xx

GeeGee, Enjoy your chippy tea xx

For lunch I had half a tiger baguette with butter and crisps, I've decided to have the other half for tea with fish fingers - diet, what diet? :)

Welcome Berni xx

Afternoon/Evening each from sunny Fife (although there were a few hailstones earlier)

Chrissie, hope you had a lovely lunch with Mary

Gail, enjoy your fish 'n chips

Ali, don't you just love those tiger rolls/baguettes? And with butter!!!

Had lunch at stepdaughters and had a lovely cuddle with the 6 wk old. The 12yr old and 9yr old were totally in love with her.

Visiting eldest tomorrow so must remember to buy chocolate for the 2yr old and 8 month old - got to get my own back somehow.

Bring it on Jones the Voice, Will-i-am, Jesse J & Daniel!
