Simon? STUART!

Whatever - you're right Chris, Gino will walk it. What a lovely and very funny bloke.

I was also up working early to try and get some control over this pre-Christmas overload. Not long before I'll be collapsed in front of the Queen's speech with a large glass in one hand and a turkey leg in the other. Can't wait.

Have a good day everyone. I've got a toughie coming up today. Wish me luck.

Lots of love. xx

Chris how about a delicious panna cotta, theres some grest recipes if you look on google.

Right off in search of new specs, sorry about spellings!

Tis I, la Poet Not Laureate of Da Blog. Just as well a new blog appeared nice n'early - means nobody will see my palty effort at rhyming couplets from earlier this morn ....

Chris, I am so looking forward to Book II. One thing's for sure, your life has been owt but dull.

And dying to know what you've got planned for Tash for Crimbo. Was in fits of giggles the other night when you and Foxy were discussing it without giving anything away. Great stuff.

MTF/Bids - yes I will definitely take some pix of this ere office once it's been Deev'd and bung 'em on FaceAche.

Daffy, ne'er mind moosh. The day is young and nights can be late so improvements are bound to follow.

For now .... music, lights and shiny things are the order of the day.

Me likes shiny things, very very muchly

Morning all

Christoph, having finished your book a few weeks back, and as someone has already said, can't remember who, I also eeked out the last few pages cos didn't want it to end. So I am really looking forward to the next chapter of your life.

Reet after buying up Guildford yesterday, I have a spare bed resembling Santa's grotto, so going to get stuck in, sort it and get it wrapped. Well that's the plan! Now first and foremost, where's the kettle?

Advent calendar - sticking with yesterday's guess - MISTLETOE

Pen xx

and am i the only person who puts up christmas decs whilst listening to pete doherty?

now that would have been a Christmas TV Special worth the fee ..... A Libertines Christmas!

yay ..... someone call Carl Barrat NOW xxx

Shniy glistening baubles me thinks seem to get the loudest cheer ;)

black ones! x

Erm... last time i checked, which i seem to remember was last night nothing waz black ;)

Morning all

pants trip home last nigth and pants trip in this morning - those trains have a lot to answer for!

Deev - I'm blaming you - was looking at a cetain website for secret santa presents yesterday and accidently bought some fairy USB lights for my monitor! Also - in true 80's retro style - I bought a MP3 player thats shaped like a tape and only holds 60 mins of music - so mr bp is getting a proper mix tape (but electronic) for christmas

Just asked mr bp if on couples night (the one night a week that is just for him) we get to stick up the christmas decs at home - the answer was not postive

Super baggy

PS - CLP - after you had signed me book and I got it home mr took it off me so he can give it me for me birthday (23rd dec)

So I am really looking forward to reading it but still have a little wait!

Morning Chris and Bloggers,

Chris - Sounds like you're going to be busy, enjoy. I need to start getting my head around presents!

GeeDeeSea - Chris Moyles may have written his book in only a week - nuf said!! There is no comparison between our Chris and the Radio 1 version. The minute CM took over the Radio 1 Breakfast Show, I switched to Radio 2 and have never looked back.

Deev - I'm choosing a Candy Cane today. Now my theory was that I would choose whatever was behind my chocolate advent calendar when I opened it. This morning was a snowflake, so I would have been right had I opened that one yesterday - confused you will be!

Rips - #283 on the other side, you cheeky boy you ;) Sorry you are still feeling poorly, sending a gentle hug to you xxx

One of my three bosses is coming in today, so I best look lively!

Morning lovely people of the blog. Still not well so home from work today. I was hoping to stay in bed an indulge in some self pity but number 2 daughter has a temp and is off school so am being a good mummy and looking after her too.

My guess for the advent calendar today is a bauble............

x x x

PS - my guess for today is a reindeer

morning all, hope you're well?

Had one of those embarrassing platground moments earlier, took in #1 son with packed lunch all ready for his school trip to the theatre on the teddybear hunt...


...it's tomorrow! D'oh what a plank.

Well actually MrsW told me it was today before she shot off to work but 'twas me standing there like a right lemon at the gates.
Oh well, you can't fall off the floor so the day can only improve, lol

Watched a bit of jungle celeb this week, how cool/funny is George Ham? What a star, and as for Jimmy White and the Opera House - hilarious.

Right, coffee number umpteen needed and a peruse back over yesterdays blogging

Morning all

Cleaning at the house started yesterday, so things are looking a bit better. Just need to get the insurance to buy a new pram and steriliser asap as they can't be salvaged :(. Baby T-10 and counting!!

Advent calendar - Reindeer! (or round here last night 'rain dear'!

A

Good luck with the writing Chris, and the pressie purchases!

Advent Calendar - Pink Angel (again)

Thanks for the wishes and greetings yesterday - I am much, much better ta!

Daisy x

Good luck Andy and of course Mrs Toverson, what a challenge you have both gone through.

MTF.xx

Simon?? Do you think it's actually Justin? Great fun last night I thought - Jimmy and the Sidney Opera House - hilarious!!!

Plenty to do between now and crimbo then CLP. Good luck with that. I hope you're eventually going to tell us what Tash's present is - after the big day obviously?

Have a great day all. xx

Chris - Up early - before 5?! Getting in to practice for 2010 then...
Bingo - misread your maths comment on previous blog, hence answer was wrong - note to self - do not drink Raki!
Mock exam for me tonight - nervous..

Nic

OK, so now I might just explode ..... first set of fairy lights up - after some snazzy plug taking offage and putting back onage by me - and they still work!!

Rat Pack Christmas Album playing LOUD.

Mince pies for later, but not told the troops yet ....!

Nic - good luck tonight. If you do as well in your exam as you do on quiz nights you'll romp it.

And the exam ....!

Morning each!

Well this isnt getting the ironing/cleaning/Christmas present buying done is it...?! CLP you put me to shame...the only time i see before 5am is if ive not been to bed yet..and sadly that doenst happen very often nowadays anyway!

But...in my defence i have just ordered 3 friends presents, plus the girls at work are sorted (www.aquarterof.co.uk..i love you!) and have also just ordered tickets for Stomp for sis and bro in law (and us of course..have to go to keep them company!). So i dont feel too guilty! and i also hope my sis doesnt read this....

Christmas Rat Pack album.... along with Enya`s chrissy one from last year possibly THE best album ever for this time of year... cant wait to go see them again a week Monday..

Right...really have to go do houseworky stuff now... grandparents coming later and wouldnt look good to have 3ft pile of ironing still in kitchen would it..

mSc x

Doh..advent calendar... going with bell again today..as per someones theory that it HAS to come up sometime!

And thanks for the reminder Beez..off to see Clodagh pics too..

Calendar guess: A cat in a santa hat.
Sadly, Big Al won't be on hand for my exam, not that he would be any help for this one anyway!

Nic

Deev..tell her she`s a miserable auld witch and she should be grateful someone is making an effort...

on the other hand, if you like having a job.....!

pS.ahve entered the great draw for tickets..and have made GM do the same! Everything crossed!

Really feel deflated now.

Mornin' Christoff. As Bingo would say, Whatta coincidence!!!

A new bed is exackly what I'm gettin' for Renee, and boy am I havin' to psyche meself up for it.

I have suggested we order the thing on line or I'll go sort it out but she's adamant she wants to go round every bed shop in the North-West, torturin' an' bamboozlin' the poor assistants to within an inch a their lives, an' plonkin' 'erself down with a thud on every bed, thumpin' 'em like she's trapped an angry ferret therein, an' leppin' up an' down in a way she'd never dream of in the privacy of her own bedroom. While I stand there, arms folded, sayin' "Look. I've 'ad this for 54 years. You can stand it for 20 minutes."

And lord help us if any of 'em get ambitious an' suggest one a them remote-controlled beds that unpredictably spring to life, nearly projectin' 'er mate Joan right out the window an' into the garden right in the middle a Midsomer Murders, then almost immediately folded back on itself, leavin' 'er fumin' an' roarin' for the window-cleaner.

Am not goin' there. Oh no. Besides, the next-door neighbour has a pacemaker, am not bein' held accountable when she interferes with it, tryin' to change channels with the remote.

By the crin.

Any road up. Now then. This dessert conundrum. Hows about the chocolate mayonnaise cake wit a nice dollop a custard. Not for the noncy feint-hearted, sticks to the ribs that one. Oh yes. One mouthful a that an' yous'll look like one a them Galapagos turtles at ruttin' time.

Clodagh.xx

(((((hugs)))))) deevs ply her with alcofrol again :)
D x x

Oh yes, tanks a million chaps for your kind comments on the evidence a my grippin' poor Christophe Lambie-Pie like the Boston Strangler, bless me.

Look. It's not MY fault. When yous get to my age an' a chap stands still for longer than 5 seconds, yous 'ave to go for it. If I 'adn't bin' surrounded wit other big burly chaps I'd 'ave rugby-tackled 'im an' kissed 'im to within an inch of 'is life, the big aul daft streak a ginger Adonis.

Clodagh.xx

Cheers Daffy. Do you have a recipe for an Arsenic Marguerita?!?

I mean, scowling at The Rat Pack Christmas Album?!?! PLEASE!!!!!

Think some Marilyn Manson may be up next ...... beautiful people!

Deevs
x x x x

Oooo Deev hun, we can't 'ave that. Stand by your phone. Hurrah.

C.xxx

Clodagh - that really made me giggle! Thank you!! xxxx

Gosh - who knew?!?!

I have 70 Marilyn Manson tracks on my iPod. Wonder how long they will last ...?!?!

Morning Chris.Lovely sunny day here in Bedfordshire.
Your a busy boy.think you should make sure you get Tash s present first,then you wont forget,
Yes i agree think Gino will win,think hes great,WHOS Simon,Oh you mean
Stuart.love to all.xx

Hello all. Hope you are all well.

Sorry to hear about your problems Andy. I hope things get sorted out soon.

Advent calendar guess - A cracker?

is it me? just had to use a pen to get into my prepacked sandwich - these things are getting harder!

for the bean counters out there - yes I used my red one - dr sandwich box, cr stomach :-)

Baggy - senior moments at your age, non?!?! x

Some of the richest people in the world own packaging companies yet they seem to make things even more difficult to get in to - can't square that circle - or, for bean counters - that's a one sided journal!
And another thing, what's with all these nanny state labels on packaging these days. A few weeks back I read one on a carton of milk that said "Warning: contains milk" - what's THAT all about?

Nic

nic - a one sided journal - that'll get your t-accounts in a muddle :-)

I have been qualified for 20 years and I still draw T accounts when I need to really sort some entries out! Apologies for non bean counters, to whom we may as well be conversing in Mandarin. :o

Nic

My fave - on peanuts:

Warning, this product may contain nuts.

I blimmin' hope so!

x

nic - i think all good bean counters are guilty of resorting to t-accounts when needed - thats what they are there for! - ive been qualified for three years - nearly a FCCA :-)

Allergic reaction to nuts...... no honestly ;)

bliss - she's gawn aht for some fresh air - hurrah shazzzam!

Have sussed out the glasses situation temporarily.

I put a peg on the bridge of my nose, then the armless specs stay in place, ok so not a good look, but hey, who's looking anyway!

Another entry to put in my 501 ways to use a clothes peg.

I kid you not. Ok, it might never be a best seller, but it may get you out of a pickle at some point.

MTF.xx

Why does everyone round here blame me for everyfink?!?!

Snot fair. Snot fair at all, at all, at all.

Debs, you is welcome. Good innit!?!

And I think I may be in the dog-house tonight. Just opened the box with the Christmas Twee in it and it's the purple one. Which means Mr Deev going back up into the loft tonight to retrieve the black one.

The purple one goes with the red dangly bits.

The black one goes with the pink and silver dangly bits - which I have here in a HUGE box.

Doh!

Moral of the story - check before you leave the blimmin' house, dufus!

Love

Hiya Darce, just as I'm heading off to work again!

Do you want me to get you some from the 99p shop, I'm hoping to get there today, as my nose is looking a bit pinched!

MTF.xx

Darce you are ok on the spelling, its bad spelling wednesady, we're all at it!

MTF.xx

Deevs - Womderland?

Pernickety Nic

Nic - where the wombles live - otherwise known as wimbledon!

I just gacve my assistant a 5 min explanation of who the wombles are as wobling merry christmas came on ipod - I don't think she understood quite why they were so great.

Morning / Afternoon,

Harrumph and hurrah. For some reason I haven't been able to get on the blog, it keeps eating my log in, then not letting me have a new one! Meh. Well this morning it's let me in so we'll see how long it lasts for!!!

I received my first Christmas card.... on Saturday. It was still November!

My calender guess is a mince pie... mmmmm preferably with a good dollop of brandy butter.

It's bloomin' miserable here so I might just have to haul out the christmas moosic to cheer things up a bit!

Dragonxx

Liking Wednesady MTF! Thinking of getting several pairs of 99p jobbies - always breaking or losing the blimmin things.

Darce xx

I tried to explain to my 7 year old the other day that when I was his age we only had 3 channels to watch on tv and that some programmes used to be in black and white. He looked at me like I was from Mars! But he does like Rainbow...lol...
I now have a break from recs as temp lady boss (that's temp boss, not temp lady btw) has asked if I will look at some invoices - just the 482 of them then...thanks!

Ncic

Afternoon,

Ok two bosses down, none to go. First boss came in for a couple of hours while we went through things and had a chat. Then Second boss came in unexpectedly for all of 20 mins. Quick rush through the diary and he was gone! Probably won't see either of them again for a couple of weeks.

I might have to get into the Christmas spirit here at work and put up our teeny tiny Christmas tree and a bit of tinsel. Colleague is going out soon, so it will be a surprise for him when he gets back.

Cheryl - My temp boss has the same birthday as me, curiously (different year). 100% true!!!

Nic

I had the same birthday as my Grandad (well its still the same day but as he is no longer here he doesn't get to celebrate it anymore) but every year on the day I raise a drink for him

I share a birthday with William Gallas and Thierry Henry - 100% TRUE as Bingo would say!

Yippeeeeee!! I survived for another year!! I bloody hate that assessment!

Need to get back to all my messages, the world and his dog have rung today.

Oh, and more good news, lappy has been returned at long last!
