BLOOGE 37 NINE

Chris Evans | 16:44 UK time, Friday, 23 May 2008

Well stone the crows it's still not here but ....

...it should be by now, so still no photos.

I'm talking about the caravan, don't call it a caravan, it's a luxury trailer.

We were discussing its absence today during which several famous caravans, don't call them caravans, were mentioned.

Petrocelli had a caravan and a half finished house, I know how he feels. Apparently Jim Rockford lived in some kind of mobile dwelling as did Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon, I believe Mel's even had a dog flap and could have witnessed the naked flesh of Patsy Kensit, pre-Emmerdale.

Here's hoping for a roof over our heads some time soon. This morning we left our old house for the last time. it served us well but I always knew it was a temporary measure, so little sadness and no tears, good times though, good times.

Whatever happens we are now people of the woods, after we get back from Mon-ar-co that is.

    Have a good one Chris.

    And I hope all my friends here have a wonderful weekend. Whether you are busy rushing around or chilling out doing something next to nothing like us, enjoy.

    Mrs MfR has just landed a new contract, so we will be cracking open some bubbly stuff over the weekend.

    We may pop over to The M tomorrow afternoon. If we spot any fluffy pink cats we'll come over and say hello.

    Huge amounts of peace and love

    PS Bingo. Try not to get too excited when watching the race on Sunday.

    Hi all you lovely people! what a lovely feeling it is when Friday evening comes and it's warm and sunny,and youngest daughter's has just had her last day at school (will be back after half term to finish her GCSEs) but that's it now her school life is over. She will be going to sixth form in September but that will be so different from school.Only seems like yesterday that she started at infants!

    Can smell dinner cooking downstairs think my man is making a stir fry, I love him cooking dinner as I have spent so many years cooking it's nice to take a back seat and let him have a go and I think he really enjoys himself!!

    Didn't hear the first song played can anyone tell me what it was??

    Better go, dinner calling.....

    Love Jenn xxx

    This is such a great start to the weekend. Just sat in the swing chair with a bowl of popcorn, glass of wine, house to myself......bliss! I totally love my garden today, so blooming big and hard work but it's been worth it.

    Mr Debbie and Little Man have just taken Betty to the vets (nothing to serious) so just me and the starlings right now. And a very sleepy cat.

    Feeling good about things today, carpe diem!

    I hope that you all have a restful and very happy weekend.

    Love to you all

    Well everybody just sounds to be in a good place right now!! Great start to the weekend.

    I have a question, being a radio newbie really. Where's the good music after 7pm??? Carried on listening on R2 and, much as I hate to be mean, it was pants. Well, maybe not pants, just not my cuppa (sorry, I'm rubbish at being mean).

    So, any suggestions????

  • Comment number 21.

    AF: Telly? Transatlantic sessions? Pink Floyd? Sorry, seem to repeating myself.

    Just had a look at both and, much as I love Transatlantic Sessions normally, suggest you go for the Chelsea Flower Show.

    Welcome to blogland.

    I'm around as this weekend is officially, 'do nothing' time - mostly down to lethargy after our Vegas trip, and partly due to the weather forecast.

    Pull up a comfy chair, pour yourself a glass of something nice and blog away.

    Best wishes

    MfR

  • Comment number 25.

    Welcome akaCrumby you will be surprised how many are still around on and off as I find it sort of addictive and find I have been online for about an hour when I thought it was just 10 minutes, just backwards and forwards and talking to my daughters on MSN. Only 6 months ago I didn't have a computer and my girls got me into using one and I have picked it up fairly quickly and am enjoying it when I never thought I would! My husband hates computers and gets a bit cross if I am on for too long and is always asking me what I am doing. He cooked a very nice meal this evening and had taken himself off to the local pub!!

    Hope you enjoy yourself as much as we all do akaCrumby!!

    Hello akacrumpy (or akacrumby as jenniferferfer likes to call you :-) ). Welcome to this lovely blog.

    Well done Mariella on getting first song today - have a fab hols.

    Ah, that Mel G in his caravan - mmmmmmmmm...... he was No1 on my 'To Do' for such a long time. Jose's taken over but I still wouldn't say no to Mel - but only if he pretends he's in Lethal weapon or Braveheart - he's a bit weird in real life I think!!!

    AF, hope your weekend is ok - sending lots of love to you.

    Back later

    Annie, sorry but not really my thing... Never really understood the point of Pink Floyd (I realise that last statement may well be blasphemous in some corners), so I think I'll stick t'radio! Local stations not that bad if you can put up with the adverts all the time...

    akaCrumby, welcome indeed. There's not really a quiet time on the blog, some of us (well, not usually me to be fair) even manage early hours wafflings!!

    Enjoy, hope you have a good weekend whatever you're up to.

    Cathmel

    I think I was the first to be cursed with the onelineism, then Bingo caught it big time and now you and B's-mum seem to be afflicted now and then.

    Somehow, I appear to be cured.

    I haven't changed any settings, browsers or logins, so I guess it is pretty random.

    Unless Interactive Ian came through for me, but if he did, I never heard anything.

    Or Chris pulled a string. Unlikely really, considering I owe him.

    today is the day that some of us will finally get tol meet in real life.

    Me and him indoors will be there from 3 for an hour or so as he has a last minute request to go to work - so it would be great to meet some of you.

    I will bring my alter-ego - the pink and fluffy one - and sit him on the table so just come over and say hi - we really are not that scary.

    See you later - and have a great long weekend one and all

    CLP .... of all the famous trailer dwellers how could you forget the Dahling of Norwich - Mr Alan Partridge, aha! I recall him living in a caravan throughout the final series of "I'm Alan Partridge" .... correct me if I'm wrong, please!

    Welcome to all new bloggers.

    And to everyone who goes to The M later - hello from me. I'll be at a party near Colchester and will be thinking of y'all!

    Right, off to cook some belly-lining stodge pre-Rose attack!

    I hope that everyone has had a good day today whatever you have been doing.

    Did you guys get to meet up at the M? How did it go?

    We took Little Man to a medieval battle reconstruction at the museum down the road. Had a really good day with him.

    And the latest on my garden....Spring Watch move over.....

    I was woken up at 4am by the sound of a fox dragging a bag of compost across my patio. It was trying to move it out of the way so that it could get to my window ledge. I had put one of those trays of fat that you get for wild birds up there. After a few attempts (and launching itself into my rose bush) it ran off with it!

    I know that you aren't supposed to like foxes but it was a beautiful creature and to watch it under my bedroom window was quite interesting really.

    Must go and get this very hot and tired 4 year old into the bath now.

    Lots of love

    Gorgeous day north of the border. Have had a really boring but satisfying day - cleaning house, weeding my lovely garden and visiting the littlest one in the family. He's now blowing kisses and so sweet.

    Have a great time at the M everyone who is going. Have a drink for all of us who can't be there.

    Hey guys!

    Did any of you manage to meet up?

    In my latest plan to get Kirk a TFI T-shirt I emailed Ginger Productions

    I will let you know if I get a response...

    Cathmel

    I thought that Chris sold Ginger as part of the Virgin deal that made his £££s.

    He now owns UMTV. Unless I'm completely out of touch.

    I have a confession to make.

    Mrs MfR and I toddled down to The M and saw Bagpuss, but bottled out of saying hello.

    And now I feel really bad.

    Super BP. If we ever see you there again, I promise that we will buy you a drink.

    Crumbs. I now owe Chris, Dan the Man and Super BP drinks.

    Heck. Fulham stayed up, Mrs MfR has a new contract and life is good.

    BTW. We will be at The LI on Monday. Maybe I'll splash the cash there.

    If you can find me.

    Love to all

    Evening all,

    I'm very stiff and in need of a decent massage after spending the best part of today outside "every little helps" (other stores apply) collecting for our local Lifeboat. as I did two stints I spent lunchtime in their cafe - it could do with improvement in the hot food dept.

    so I am now home and having counted out two collecting buckets and bagged up the money (I can't reveal how much - sorry) I am catching up with the blog and say hello to all new bloggers. Congrats to Mariella on achieveing the 1st song ARF.

    Matt is that you on FB under CLP Group standing next to a road sign?? if so I'll drop you a line. Shame on you bottling it at M today. Your drink debts are getting bigger.

    Enjoy the weekend everyone - catchup on tuesday as I am heading up the roads to sunnier Somerset for the rest of the weekend.

  • Comment number 53.

    Bless you Pheonix, put your feet up now you deserve it.

    My and Little Man put some money in a collection box for the lifeboats outside the very same chain of stores yesterday. There must be a campaign on at the moment. Thanks for people like you that give up their time to collect for charities.

    so today - meeting people at the M - what a disater - first of all major issues on the M25 so we got there at 4 instead of 3 dispite leaving in pleanty of time and then no-one came and said hello. Now the LOML thinks I made you all up.

    So MfR - do we really look that scary? which ones were you and the misses?

    Super BP - well done on trying. It can work and it will work next time. I have 3 best friends that I met a few years ago on a bloggy thing. We've met up loads of times now and know each other really well. It just takes a bit of courage and I'm sure someone will take the leap next time. At least you had Mr BP with you. I'd have to come on my own!!!!

    Done lots of allotment work today - and got given my first veggies, a few leeks which I am planning on having for dinner tomorrow.

    What a liberty one and all

    Yes the so called Eurovision song contest.

    What with Russia and all those made up countries names. Well it’s a sham. Poor Andy he sang a good song well.

    I say lets boycott it in future. Let’s see how those Eastern Europeans manage without us.

    The worst contest I have seen in years.

    hi

    girl racer 21 (well I wiwsh I was anyway) - the mulberry is in surrey, near Haslemere (with an s - we live in Hazlemere with a z and thats in Bucks) on the A283.

    very nice pub, friendly staff and good choice of music. Also the kiddies play area looks very inviting and if there had been less people around and I hadn't done in my back we would have had a play ;-)

    went to bed during the voting last night on the euro vision - I do think we shuldn't play next year and withdraw our monry that pays for it - that might make them think twice about fair play - the Russisan entry wasn't even that good.

    Hi everyone.

    It's absolutely chicking it down here in not-so-sunny-Suffolk at the mo, which is just as well because ...... Mr Diva has got a hangover!

    Imagine Manflu and multiply it by ten - that's a Mr Diva hangover for you. Not pretty. Not pretty at all.

    Went to a party yesterday. We were both drinking from about half four in the afternoon, but one of us (hmmmmmm, who could that be?) remembered to keep grazing the buffet table and paced HERself, whilst the other (that'll be Himself) went at the tinnies like a bull in a china shop and didn't so much as neck a sausage roll. Ooooops!

    So, now I'm creeping round like a little mouse, being quiet so as not to wake sleeping beauty! LOL!!!

    Right, off to read the next bit of Marian KEyes - must remember not to laugh too loudly at the funny bits!!

    Hi Chris,

    I have just bought and watched "Standing in the Shadows of Love", the story of the studio band behind the 60's Detroit Motown sound- these guys were the unsung hero's - THE FUNK BROTHERS.

    What an amazing story and DVD.

    If you or others have not seen this, please buy and watch - you are in for a treat!

    These guys still play, although their numbers are dwindling.

    They recorded more hits than the beatles, Rolling Stones, Elvi Presley and the Beach Boys - combined!

    If you watch the DVD, you will want to see them.

    I would love you to consider an ongoing slot/rally on your show to get these guys to the UK to perform. Chris, you can do this, you are the Master of awareness campaigns.

    Please, please, give it a go!

    Thanks, Ronnie.

  • Comment number 71.

    One of the thoughts for the day: beware of light reflecting off the windscreen.........

    The story goes like this.......

    Yesterday, I purchased for the bargain price (IMO) of Β£4 the CD of Meat Loaf's 'Bat out of Hell' (clearly, every little bit really does help). The afore-mentioned album comprised my staple musical diet during my teens - I loved it!!!. So, of course, it went straight into the car to be played at all times subsequent, at whatever volume the surroundings would permit.

    That same day, I went to collect my youngest from her week-long trip to France and all the car park spaces having been taken at her school by parents even more keen than I to get pole position, I parked in the adjacent (car park overflow) school field. There was one other car in the field.

    My eldest daughter was in the car and we had been listening to said album. She found it difficult to reconcile (as did I) how I could remember every word to 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light' but hadn't remembered to get her requested 'Crunch' bar at the local 24/7 only the day before.

    However, when we parked up in the field with music still playing, she decided to wait in car for fear of embarrassing younger sibling by 'the whole family' (bless her) going to meet her rather than just the mum (me), which is less embarrassing apparently. (This I took as a huge and unexpected compliment). In fact, much of and indeed my only social life of looking (not talking to) any other parents when collecting my offspring from various activities has, with the advent of teenagehood (theirs not mine), been severely curtailed as one is not permitted to alight the car when one collects thesedays.

    Anway, where was I? Oh yes, eldest decided to wait in car - I joshed that she just wanted to listen to the CD - she looked at me somewhat sideways (literally, as well as....) and I got out the car. I then proceeded to dance and mime the words (perfectly, I may add) to the rest of 'Two out of Three Ain't Bad) which was playing as I alighted. I acted and sung the rest of song on my way from car to edge of field not realising that there was in fact someone sat (and watching in utter bewilderment) in the 'other' parked car in the field. Of course, I realised this not only after it was way too late but after several reprises.

    I met up with my returning daughter whose suitcase hadn't appeared off the coach, unlike everyone elses. We searched everywhere and it was found tucked away in the 'hold' but only after a while which meant that it was just us and the teachers remaining at the school.

    Who should walk up the school drive to greet his (teacher) wife after her school trip? Yep, you guessed it friends.......the man from the other car that was parked in the field who had witnessed by prance and dance. Oh joy!

    I hadn't of course seen him in his car because of the light reflecting off his windscreen. I can only hope that he didn't have the same problem and that he COULD see my eldest daughter sat in my car and for whom I was performing my act!!!

    Have a good one.

    There are millions of listeners for the CLP DriveTimeShow, and still a few millions with internet access - so, why so few bloggers?

    Super BP.

    Please let me explain myself.

    I'm not very good at social stuff.

    I don't want to dig myself into a hole and make a whole bunch of excuses, but, when it came to the crunch, I couldn't step up to the plate and do the simple the thing and say hi.

    I'm sorry.

    For the record, we were the two flicking through holiday brochures on one of the tables near the car park. We both had Hard Rock t-shirts and sunnies on.

    I'm so sorry.

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

    MfR - who owes you, big time.

    Matt

    A while ago I saw someone that I knew and hadn't seen for years at the supermarket. Something stopped me from saying hello and having a chat, not sure what, shyness maybe?

    Later that night I was so annoyed at myself from not stopping this person and saying hello, may not ever see them again.

    Two weeks ago, same shop, there she was. And I stopped her and had a chat, caught up with her and was pleased to have done so.

    What you said just reminded me of this, that's all.

    You seem to be a very decent person, so don't be hard on yourself mate and Super BP is quite lovely too.

    Normailty has been restored to Casa Diva!! The Hangover From Hell has left the building and the PS3 is back in action - hurrah!!

    lazykev - I don't get Genesis either. Ditto Rush and Pink Floyd. Take or leave Meatloaf but Bat ... was a pivotal rock moment. Now Bruce ..... we're off to see him on Saturday at The Emirates!! Sooooo excited. the Boss and The Gunners' home ground. I think I'll probably either explode or wet myself. Possibly both!!

    MfR /Debbie- I was approached by a strange man in a supermarket about 3 weeks ago. I was just about to call security when he re-introduced himself. It was someone I'd gone to school with and my very best friend in the universe's first hubby. We'd not seen each other for about 16 years. We've been emailing and last week met for lunch - small world - we both work in the same town (Debbie - the one with the Castle!) and live about 15 miles from each other. It was lovely to catch up and I hope we stay in touch.

    Maybe it's the "turning 40" thing that makes people want to catch up. After only a couple of weeks I'm hooked on FB and have made contact with some old friends on there, as well as all the bloggers from here.

    Anyhooooo, will pop back later to catch up.

    Funny, was watching -well, dipping into and out of- the Cricket. looking good .. and the weather in Old Trafford is chilly but not raining, at all, and they commentators are having so many emails /texts in about the softie south and all the rain, versus the sunny 'north' where the weather is at least playable, if a bit chily. Funny.

    I wanted to say thaks to the super pink pussycat for making the effort on the 'M' but it's a long way from me too :-(

    Need to ask though, I didnt hear that much of the show towards the end of the week, with the desk change and all, CLP, please tell me they let you keep the bell?

    The show Without the bell - unthinkable!
    No bell = no act = no show ! Noooooo
