Morning All



Am I first? Bright and early (well, early anyway). Had a good weekend - we went to the Chichester Festival and saw The Orchestra, formerly known as ELO. And guess what the first song they played was? MTF's favourite - Twilight!



Back later with my diary suggestions. When I know what they are.



Deebee X

Billy J Kramer - Do You Want To Know A Secret

Followed by...



'The Diary Of Horace Wimp' by ELO.



Having taken care of the obvious...



'White Blank Page' by Mumford And Sons

DIARY - by Bread

'Magic moments' Perry Como...

'Try to remember/ the way we were' Gladys Knight & the Pips

Tough topic today - can't think of any off the op of my head beyond the obvious ones that have been mentioned already.



Newly acquired wisdom from the weekend: when enabling MAC address filtering on your home router, remember to include the MAC address of the network card on your wired PC that is used to make administrative changes on the aforementioned router :-)

#15. Is it Monday morning again? No, it's Monday afternoon. Lazybones!

Nice choices, though, Darren. The rest has obviously left you inspired.



Where have you been since 6:15 on 6th July? There doesn't even seem to be a stick of rock for anyone!

Afternoon Everyone,



Haven't caught up yet, just wanted to suggest AIN'T NO MOUNTAIN HIGH ENOUGH by DIANA ROSS - it's one of the tunes from the Bridget Jones's Diary soundtrack.

Gaily

'Your History' by Shakespeares Sister.



OK, I know it's really You're History, but I'm trying. (Cue for LueyLuey to pitch up and say "Yes, you are!")

Afternoon, and hope enjoyable weekends have been had by all,



# 3 Nice choices from Yazoo and ELO there PoS, both were at the front of my mind also!

I'm done. Laters, then.

G_C - a splednid weekend thank you. I hope yours was equally so.



PSL - I second the Wonderous Stories suggestion - particularly good choice.



Gaily

Last one. One of my all time favourite songs, how could I forget...



'One Week' by The Bare Naked Ladies.

#31 I've already suggested Kirsty McColl - see #8. But I don't mind sharing.

I have just caught up with yesterday's blog.



Nice to see you Annie, you should pop by more often.



MTF, that wasn't your recently cleaned and sparkling oven you set on fire was it??? I hope it's okay and not badly damaged (or even the house for that matter).



Gaily

MTD - (from previous blog) did you manage a lie in this morning or were you up at your usual time? I hope the first day of gardening leave is going well, done much weeding yet?



#36 - Deebs, you are so kind to share.



Gaily

#16 For the sake of my boss who maybe reading this, I have been busy working.



Simon Mayo maybe a God but we can't always attend his church whenever we want.



It was driving me nuts trying to remember the Dusty song from the film Scandal.



(Is nuts a swear word? sorry Mods if it is)



I particularly hope the Ian Dury song gets played, (from the diary Adrian Mole aged 14 & 3/4).



Anyone got any ideas on how to stop Deevski being bored?



SIMON, PLEASE GET A SPECIALIST ON THIS EVENING RE: BOREDOM ALLIEVIATION



Love the show, the host, myself, the staff, the other blogpoppets, the mods, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the face bookers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you)

Howdydoody Folks, a very quick poop in from me,gotta dash to work now.



For the diary thingy....



'Always someting there to remind me', by whichever artist you prefer Simon. I dont think that ELO have done a cover, but stranger things have happened!!



If someone else has already suggeseted this, oops sorry, had a quick scrolldown.



Gaily, the oven is back to gleaming and the house is still standing thanks.



Right gotta fly, toodle oo.



MTF.xx

#39 - Darren - 'nuts' can be a swear word I think but not in the context you were using it.



Is having two jobs not enough to keep Deevski from being bored?



#40 MTF - phew that's a relief. poor you tho' having to clean the blimmin' thing all over again. did you manage to save the food before it was too badly cremated or was it a good excuse for take-away?



Gaily

It was the takeaway Gaily,LOL!!



Only the poppadums in their brown paper bag though!



Im outta here................................



MTF.xx

Did someone call .....



This morning dragged so much! It's my bosses 1st day back from her hols so have been trying to look busy all morning. Now donning my 2nd hat and it's as quiet as quiet can be. Honest.



I think The Search will resume very soon. I can't be doing with boredom every day.



When I get home I am going to attack the kitchen cupboards and tackle the ironing, before cooking a lovely Thai chicken curry. My man is having a bad day so I'm looking forward to cheering him up later.



And on the day my Decree Nisi is read in court, does this mean I am now part-divorced?



Deevs

x

NUTS!!! Ohhhh hazel nuts, a certain British Brand that is no longer a British Brand take them and they cover then in Chocolate!!!







Do you know something, I feel really Macadamia'd off!



Love the show, the host, myself, the staff, the other blogpoppets, the mods, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the face bookers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you)

#42 - LOL MTF, that is funny.



#43 - Hi DVT (not the blood clot thing), might be better to use Deevs rather than your user name initials, in answer to the question of the Decree Nisi, yes, but which part?



Gaily

Yes thank you GailyB, an equally splendid weekend indeed. An open top bus ride and west end show in honor of a 'soon to be another year older where does the time go' daughter.

#44 - Darren - I think you're nutty as a fruit cake.



Rightio, it's desk clearing time and then home time - yippee!!! Won't be tuned in to the show between 6.20 and 6.50 - dropping elder gb and his mates at ATC so in an order to attain some street cred, we'll be listening to Rad!o 1 (other radio stations are available). Will be back for the last 10 mins tho'.



Should have said earlier, SM,definitely on top of the world at the mo and for no reason in particular - it's a great feeling.



Toodle-oo



GailyB

G_C - how lovely. Perfect weather for the bus ride too. What was the show? We're hoping to go to see War Horse in the hols. It looks amazing.



Laters P'taters,



GailyB

The Easybeats - Friday On My Mind



Zager and Evans - In The Year 2525 (I've got a reminder set in Outlook!)



The Mamas and The Papas - Monday Monday



G_C

#49 LOL G_C - I just thought "that's not really all that far away". Then realised it's 2525, not 2025! D'oh!

Blood Brothers Gaily, which I would highly recommend. Fab show and lovely theatre.



You bet Courgette



G_C

I got 50 without even realising it! Do I get a Sheffield Wave?

Deebs, Half Century, YAAYY!!!

#53 Thanks Paul!

#54. Shagbark Hickory!

It was so beautiful in the Lincolnshire Wolds that we stayed an extra day - having said that it's good to be home to say HELLOOOO! -



as well as - to return my name to its rightful status [like Simon - did not appreciate the thuggery in the first half of WC final so a switch of allegiance to the beautiful football of La Roja was a given]



Have had a swift blogscrape and it's reassuring to see that everyone appears to be in rude health - oo-er missus - and that Kev and family have a roof over their heads.





Laters for more chat and Scrabble

#59 Language!

#59 Hi Katy. Glad you had a good weekend - welcome back!

oops #58 Language! not #59 Language!

#62. Perhaps another rest, Darren? ;-)

I notice that Kev has tweeted about his pants being on fire. Now, I know house moving can be an exciting time, but really, a little decorum, surely!

Countdown to the bigger show...

Enjoy Yourselves...

It's a fiver!

I don't mean it's a fiver to enjoy yourswelves. Ooer, Missus! Anyway, it's now a sixer.

New blogword. Yourswelves.

And now I'm off to pick up LueyLuey from work, giving up any chance of 10 in a row.

#64 I never thought of Kev as a LIAR LIAR.



Just shows you never know some people.

Well done PoS

Yes, well done indeed Mr of Sheffield!

And well done to newbie Sarah Taylor too!!

Well done Sarah

The webcam's moved - you can't see the clock any more.

yay my 3 word monday was in that last batch :-)

Woohoo - well done PSL!

Well done PSL

Woo hoo and a well done PoS - a wee smile of recognition passed across my lips at the mensh.



Whoop whoop and well done PSL on the 3 word Monday. Since Malcolm's contributions have been less plentiful, we seem to have forgotten about the three word days - we must make a conscientious effort to get some three word menshes in this week. Will think of some (well probably one if I'm lucky) for tomorrow.



ST - I didn't hear your mensh but well done anyhoo. Is that a first for you?



GailyB

Menshtastic! Thank you, thank you. If you enjoyed it, tell your friends. I'm here all week. (Scary thought, isn't it)

Creak!

School

very Good.
