The England vs France advert?

That's actor Jeremy Sheffield from Holby City http://www.rainbownetwork.com/images/img12025.jpg

there you go.

away.

Happy New Year and plenty of able 12 months to come

oh he's lovely - he was in that Natalie Imbruglia vid too, wasn't he?

to celebrate Rains' new notebook.
I've been struggling with an mp3 player (Sony) which I bought for the Technologically Challenged but it was faulty. Now he has a Creative Zen (mp3 player, not state of mind) and I'm loading that up for him. Fascinating what CDs we have accrued over the years.

I watched the "meet the actors" part of Shrek2 the other day. Antonio Banderas - and what a knicker-melting voice/accent!

but oh my... Rupert Everett....

Is that on the DVD? - Damn I nearly picked that up at the supermarket just before Christmas.

However, I'm saving like made now I've decided to go to Azahar's meet in Seville, as well as the London meet next week. I'm going to need a hotel in London and the flight to Seville isn't cheap either. Plus which it leaves from Hahn which is costly/time-consuming to get to.

By the way, for the wet men page of the calendar, just use that one of Christian Bale in the shower. It's still my wallpaper at work, I just can't stop looking at it.

.. saving like mad ?

My typing is the pits since new year. Probably all that lack of sleep.

I just think of it as the New Year blues - I always find this part of the year the hardest to get through .

Ooh, thanks for the link - might be time to change my wallpaper on my work PC! I knew I'd get his name wrong, but at least I remembered what ad he was in. The France v England concept is quite amusing for a car advert; certainly I can't imagine many manufacturers being able to say someone else designed their car!

I keep thinking I should go to a meet... London is reasonably easy to get to from here, but there's my total lack of a sense of direction to combat, and my general preference to avoid busy towns and cities. And the fact that unless my husband was doing something else, I'd probably want to bring him with me, and he's very definitely a country boy at heart.

I would love to get to a meet. As things are, it is all I can do to get away to my mum's for a few days and that takes some major planning.

I know!

Do you think my 80 year old mum would object if I organised a meet at her house?

I thought our mini-meet went well, Gwennie! all those years ago!

Last time I met up with TC (and ReddyFreddy and LuckyStar) I ended up in hospital...

Right, next week, I think I can do a bit more work on the Calendar. Christian Bale it is.
mmmmm

did I mention that boy is nearly 29? too old for me!

boy too old! Yeah right! Like you would kick boy out on a cold dark night (like that girlie did to George Clooney on the advert for an alcoholic beverage).

You would be amazed, but Chris (now over 6ft tall!) still talks about your visit Sho. He often asks me when you are coming again and seems to be fascinated by the fact that you live in Germany. I have tried to tell Chris that you were staying with your mum at the time but he dismisses it. I think it might have something to with your leaving him and Mair some Euro coins, which were still relatively new at the time.

Can Ben Browder be on the calendar on May 6? Leather trousers, tight black tee-shirt.

(That's my birthday.)

Phwor! How could Ben Browder have slipped my mind? I hope there's room left.

Ben will have to wait for 2007 ... we're pretty full for this year
unless I have time to make an alternative version (hmmmmmm not likely, given my usual schedule)

I watched Kingdom of Heaven last night. Oh my! Liam Neeson and Jeremy Irons (fantastically butch and gruff) and -boy ...

Gwennie's right, I would deffo not kick him out for eating biscuits! Nicely muscled in this film, and shirtless in one scene. Which had to be paused as right at that moment offered to make the tea.

Anyone seen Breakback Mountain yet? Oh man... My Slashy Heart is pounding at the idea of that one.

I must admit Orlando went up a notch in my estimation after Kingdom of Heaven, but I thought Jeremy Irons managed to look quite repulsive.

I still think Jeremy Irons would be a lovely James Bond. Although perhaps he's past the sell-by date for that, now. He really stood up well against Bruce Willis in the battle of the dirty vests ... er I mean, Die Hard. And he's English. There haven't been many English James Bonds. (Still, at least there haven't been any American ones.)

I hope no one will mistake me for Della with that last remark. I must quickly point out that I thoroughly enjoyed Renee Zellweger's Bridget Jones and Gwyneth Paltrow in Shakespeare in Love.

Oh - and my son was watching "Almost Famous" the other night, so I plonked myself in a free armchair and watched, too. Billy Crudup is rather luscious, if a bit long-haired and droopy-moustached in it. And the hero's sister is played by Zooey Deschannel.

Can Ben Browder be on the calendar on May 6?

Could you make that May 3? That's my birthday

who did we pick for May?
maybe we can swap out one of the Beans? (much as I hate to do that)

May I also mention that since I saw the Shrek2 things, I am TERMINALLY in lurve with Rupert Everett

I the in that movie.

Oh and I'm watching "Invasion" - a kind of sci-fi "Lost" and

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004827/

That's the star.

OK, never heard of him? He's been voted best-bod...and I've just seen him having an al-fresco shower with his missus...

Get to a TV NOW and put Richard & Judy on!!!

John Barrowman (Captain Jack) coming up.

I just found out that the bleached-blond "German" who did the singing in the "show" Springtime for Hitler (from The Producers) was none other than John Barrowman.



How could I have seen that film and not know it was him?

And boy, was he flirting with Richard *and* Judy!

Couldn't it have been a week later? I'm over in England next week at this time. (Not that there's a chance I'll get to see Richard and Judy at my parents'!)

Did anyone (in UK) watch Life on Mars on Monday? Fantastic, and Sam is quite cute.

there's something on at 10pm tomorrow, not sure what, or which channel, with the lovely Rupert Everett

Ohhhhh be still my beating - I just saw a bit of Enemy at the Gates

Angst ridden Jude Law
