For example, today, despite my old age, I had to find out what 'on tenterhooks' meant. Apparently it means the way that cotton and wool weaved fabrics were hung over fencing to dry with tenterhooks. Bit like pegs as I think it means. Discuss.
... I am out of hospital. Again! Feeling well better! What's the gaga goss for the last couple of weeks? In true fashion I put up a thread and will reply or not tomorrow!
Yep, I was in hospital again. Feeling so much better than I felt after 6 weeks in hospital last time. Basically, the docs effed up last time but now I'm motoring again! Can't believe CBB is starting tonight! ...
Were entirely incorrect. I'm home again after another 6 weeks in Ealing Hospital. Tell me the GGJJ gossip please. I'll read your gems tomorrow because I'm still on hospital time. to all...
'Ello. Been away 'cos of a very bad chest infection. Blue light ambulance, the whole caboodle. 4 weeks later I get home with COPD and stuff! Very kernackered still. You can now leave your...
BBC3 now then BBC1 at 9.00 pm. If folk are watching can they please post pix of the frocks and shocks as my neolithic software now disagrees with me! Eddie Redmayne is Hugh Grant reincarnated.
Yes, I know there is an existing TV thread but I thought it might be fun to have hints to shows or films that we've seen trailered ahead of them over Christmas. For example, I've just watched 'Treasure Island' on Pick. Stars Eddie Izzard...
I've realised I've been very negligent about adding my birthday felicitations to my fellow FMs. So here is a recent catch-up and apols to all. Happy belated birthday Super Saz, Mufster, Dodgy Rog and the lovely...
The BNP expel Nick Griffin from the party for trying to 'destabilise' and trying to 'embroil it in factionalism'. Too funny! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-29453341
I've just tried to find an image on Google images to celebrate Kaffs move. It has changed beyond recognition! I just get sent to websites of companies with no way to find and copy the image I want to use! Can anyone help? (Not you Saint.) I searched...
I'm putting my cards on the table now. All the threads I've been into today have been full of folk saying they're going to give up watching BB any second. So in order to have a thread that those who are hating it won't post, here...
I think you, and all Honey Badgers will enjoy this BBC documentary about them. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0418x7x I'll never forget the way you introduced them to me. (Contains strong language) ...
I intend to cavort on the red carpet on this place if anyone else does while the frocks, shoes, accessories, men are paraded. I probably won't be up for the ceremony itself for long. If I don't, please record your thoughts and pix...
Now there will be some amongst us who may remember the historical satire book '1066 and All That'. This is a brilliant BBC update of the book on the radio iPlayer this week. It had me proper ...
I've been trying not to get this mad about the Duggan inquest result on here. Couldn't help myself, sadly. I'm furious about the outcome and worry about how little police relations in any community haven't progressed in years. Well, in London at...
I recommend you get in contact with Digital Spy and explain to them how to run a social internet site. http://www.theguardian.com/media/2013/dec/01/digital-spy-entertainment-technology-revamp
I'm sure there are some FMs who will have celebrated last night. Hope work went well today Dave. 85 years is going to have built up a bit of a good time off. Oh, and Happy Halloween. Tell all to post their pumpkin sculptures...
I can't bear to watch it any more! The discussion of the power companies increases was so skewed I was really shouting at the telly! I really enjoyed venting like that.
Red eyed Doctor Who right now (23.37 Sunday). Marginally less scary than the previous one. I liked the sheriff badge one muchly. My favourite new avi atm is kimota's unicycling Darth Vadar with flaming bagpipes one.
So1. You use the name of one of your grandparents (according to your gender).2. You use location specific primary school.3. You decide whether you are an Upstairs or Downstairs character... and allow us to differ. I'm Emily Chesterton and...
... before it's too late (although we have the time changes to make it look less neglectful). Happy Birthday Dave! Pop in and see us soon. Enjoy the cake!
OK, I'm finally laying my cards on the table for Vicky. She has negotiated with and engaged with every HM the whole way through, even Sophie. With that lot of HMs that is some accomplishment.
How is it that she was chosen by BB to be in the Cult of Celebrity and again now to be one of the Prisoners for the shopping task? Favouritism maybe? And while I'm at it, Louie seems to have had a bigger share of running tasks too.
