So look everyone, look who it is...
... writing in my book of those heady and fabulous days back in the Nineties when we were on fire made us both realise why the heck did we stop doing all that stuff and nonsense, and could we still remember how to do it if we wanted.
So we got together in the park and felt the old juices flowing again - over to Will.
When Chris says old juices this time he doesn't mean Special Brew - not that it ever was to be honest - but you know what I'm saying.
The good old power of tea and fresh air not to mention watching the world go by. That's how most of the stuff we did came about. I suppose that's why kids write the best songs because they have the best view out of the window and the least to do with their time.
Now back to the both of us.
Will still has loads of hair.
Chris loads of issues - bless you.
But here we are a pondering something. What will it end up being ?
We always used to say coming up with the title is two thirds of the idea. We currently have high hopes for -
Who Left My Computer On?
How Manky's That Pigeon?
How Manky's This Pigeon?
What About My Pigeon?
Hang On That's Not A Pigeon?
Did you hear that Big Brother has just got the boot? Here come those pigeons Channel Four.

Fab!!! I think I'd go for 'How Manky's THAT pigeon?' myself but it's all good stuff. Love to see you back on the box but if that's at the expense of the radio show then you stay right where you are my lovely fella cos you make my day, EVERY day and when you're on holiday I have to endure a silent journey home until you're back cos I can't face listening to Drivetime without your dulcets.

Greetings Ter The Christoof, The Will And ALL Bloggies...
Bingo Star ere....
Will - Ello.... my gooodneeeess gracious... little did a now, sorry know, all those years ago when a used ter deilver pizzas on a Fridee neet and during the quiet bits of me shift we all used ter watch The TFI 18.00 slot.... but if a waz buzy delivering... then a 'ad always set me video, just in case, ter tape the show... so after me shift finished at 01.00 a could come 'ome with a pizza of me own and watch the most nice TFI gig.... pause for breath.... little did a now, sorry know, i'd be writing on CLP's blog and INDEED ter yersen!!!!!!!
A must admit a waz always frightened of CLP in those dees!!!!
Although a liked 'im and yersen and The TFI gig, CLP.... 'e came across az so confident and coool - know what am sayin!!!!!!
Confident and coool people used ter frighten me az a waz an ex-trainspotter just coming out of me sheltered child'ood and inter adolescence.... and lets face it... sometimes coming inter the adult world iz freightening, sorry frightening, az most adults do 'ave less sense - know what am sayin'!!!!!!
Noot that CLP ain't coool now, sorry know, a think am just less.... errr frightened of coool people... yersen included Will!!!!!!
Although a am frightened of Steve Wright... be it in a coool way!!!!!
PS WIll man... A thought yer came across az very coool too!!!!
And a don't mean cold coool caused by CLP with 'is contiunally open window in which 'e kept throwing things out of inter the Thames!!!!!
Anyway... az for the special brew... a know what yer sayin'.... my favourite iz ukrainian 'erbal green tea - know what am sayin'!!!!!!!
Onter the CLP boook.... all a can say it's very nice Will that yer were/ still are/ 'ave been fully willing ter 'elp CLP wilfully in a willfull manner!!!!!
Full sentimentations of being a Will... full of wilful 'appenings.... az INDEED you were on The TFI gig!!!!!!!!
PPS Will, a take it your name Will, will appear in CLP's boook somewhat regular and in proper fashion aka noot willy nilly - know the points am tryin' ter 'it ere????
PPPS Az for The Pigeon Show thingy... 'ow about a title like...... Who 'My Pigeonless Pigeon 'ole'.... am thinking along the lines of 'Pigeon 'ole' ere!!!!!
A might try and think of something abit more catchy but just a quickie idea of me own there!!!!
Don't even know fully what the new show iz about yet... a take it that's what yer mean with those titles?????.... Noot ter do with CLP's boook title????
Any way most good ter ave you write abit on the blog for The CLP!!!!
PPPPS Still wondering what's 'appened ter The Cat yer 'ad on the show????
PPPPPS CLP - A take it in yer boook, CLP man, yer ave been talkin' about alotta funny photos Will 'as 'elped you with ter put inter yer boook. Does this mean yer might ave a photo of the time yer both and a few others off TFI all ended up.... errr on the footy field.... errrrr without any clothes on?????
A can say iz a can think of a joke that includes another word with 'will' in it but az a don't wanter get blog moderated again... am keeping totally stum!!!!!!

Hope so!!! Looks like some of us are making long week-ends of it too!!! Getting cited now thinking about it! Been ages since London Annie.

Hey Beezer, glad you fessed up first! In the 90s I was bringing up babies, listening to radio 4 and dressing smart! Cold Feet type of person, I'll leave you to guess which character. Different husband too.
Nothing against Chris at the time, just on a different stratosphere.
How things change eh! Love the bloke, the show and he even makes the teens chuckle. Talking of whom...
GCSEs tomoz for teen 1. This may be the most grown-up I've felt so far. In my life.
Saw Time Traveller's Wife today. Slightly tenuous plot but worth it for Eric Bana's "clothes disappearing every time he travels" problem.
By the way, keep discovering people I thought I was "friends" with (FB) but I never confirmed. If that's you please don't take it personally, am just useless, sorry!

Ah Crumps - I will have a listen. Oddly enought we watched "Shaun of the Dead" with tea tonight,I love Simon Pegg, and an interesting early encounter with Dylan Moran!
Yes, yes, used to listen to Woman's Hour, PM, The Archers, I even now find the Shipping Forecast very therapeutic! I first heard "Knowing You, Knowing Me" on Radio 4. Then I discovered Radio 2, and it was as if all the best bits of Radio 1 (my school and university days) had mingled together with an extra dash of Terry Wogan from my childhood! Perfect!
Still love "Any Questions" and "Any Answers" though.

Chris
Do you have any say on when your book is published?
I only ask because I see that a certain pair of Geordie lads have a book at around the same time that your's is due out.
Is it a case of your publishers needing to get a book aimed at a similar market out , or even their's doing the same, or do you just take pot luck.
There seems to be a fair few celebrity biogs due out around Christmas time, but I guess this is the case every year.
Also there will be a fair few books about the 'King of Pop' out as well, although I suppose you will have the advantage of being able to do book signings whereas he won't.

Hi everyone,
Puff: It's great you are settling in - sounds like you and MrPuff are perfectly happy!
MTF: I can honestly say that when I attended our first Scottish Meet, it was as easy and perfectly natural as can be. Quite incredible really. The moment I met Susan, EG and Mary, we were just off and running. You will have a fabulous time, no doubt about it.
Speaking of Meets ...... can't believe that Mary, AnnieG and me are heading for Liverpool! It's as if MTF's fairy dust has been sprinkled over us! One minute it was ...."no, can't go, it's impossible" and then the next minute it was "yep, it's a definite!". Really can't wait - so many people to meet, just names at the moment, but I know it will be great!
Cheryl: I came on here this morning to talk to you about the footie last night - and then you write a quote from It's Only Love. All I can think about is how I used to listen to that in my bedroom before I married MrS. Those lyrics summed up exactly how I felt then - it was hard loving him, because I knew I was just too, too young to get married, but as it turns out, I'm glad I did!
Don't think you're getting away with the footie, I'll be back later!

What about Beatles cover versions? There's the good (Dear Prudence by Siouxsie & The Banshees), there's the bad (Help by Banarama and French & Saunders for Comic Relief) and then there's the ugly (When I'm 64 by Russell Brand .....!?!?)

Debs - I might make it to a meet sometime, although like everyone, am incredibly shy (to begin with) and would feel extremely nervous....still, when one is nearer to me (sunny Surrey) I might be persuaded! But don't do killer heels and pink fizz, more of a timberlands and beer girl - sorry!

Debs: what a fantastic achievement by your daughter - she must be over the moon - she's a very clever girl!
I missed whatever happened with the house party. Horredous? Not to worry, my lovely daughter (18) attended a house party about 6 weeks ago. Started at 9.30pm, finished at 12.30 with the Police being called, because of the noise and drunk teenagers milling around outside! Fairly messy, from what I could tell, although of course I am never told the FULL story!
Cheryl: very briefly re: the footie. How on earth you are able to concentrate on any football being played when you have so many gorgeous men in the Arsenal team ...... methinks I now know the reason why you are a Gooner! I speak mainly of Mr Ramsay (No.16) - ok I would frighten the life out of him and I am probably old enough to be his granny, but I wouldn't have minded helping him out with his sore ankle last night!! Oooo-errr, where did that come from?!
And, as we all know, it was NOT a penalty!

Hi Debs, well done to your GD for her results & good luck to everyone still waiting.
Had to drop my boys at school today for a holiday club & there were crowds there collecting results. I saw lots of smiles but waht a scary glimpse into the future.
At least you can relax now for a while

Afternoon all
The sun is out and all seems clear for GD and her driving in an hour!! OMG, clear the roads please. Don't know who's more nervous, me or her. Will keep you all posted.
Debs - many congrats to your GD. How proud are you? Enjoy the celebrations.
Good luck to boleyngirl's GD and others expecting results today. Fingers crossed for all.
Choccy please, however you can get it here. Just get it here if you can!
So many Beatles tracks to choose from....Hey Jude, Let it Be, She Love's you. No way can I choose a fave. Will enjoy everyone of them. BUT please CLP, no covers.
Confession from me too re TGIF...never did see it so can't comment. In those days Friday night was a night out or hosting Dinner parties in pearls and twin set served on the best wedgewood!! Nowadays it's a take away in best messed up jog pants eaten out of newspaper! Oh, and I'm soooooooooo much happier. Ha!

LOL Chrissis! Yes, the scenery when visiting The Emirates certainly softens the blow of the ticket prices!! If we don't win any trophies, at least we have The Wow Factor!!!!
And I was ashamed at the "penalty" - a goal's a goal, but there is no way it should have been given. All the more weight for video replays, I guess.
The Group Stages draw is at 5pm today so expect Johnny to update us att at ten to six this eve!
I was just starting to feel a bit gloomy and then Good Day Sunshine came on and I am now smiling again!

Cheryl: no way should you feel ashamed of the penalty - I was just teasing! This happens all the time of course - but I would have thought much more of Mr Wenger if he had admitted to it. It's funny isn't it - we football fans actually feel we're to blame if things go wrong! It's crazeeee!
Debs: yes, I must admit, not knowing all the facts is sometimes for the best!

Have now played all my Beatles CDs, so ordered 3 more to add to the collection - Beatles For Sale (poss my fave album), A Hard Day's Night (includes If I Fell) and With The Beatles - nice early stuff and a bit o'rock and indeed roll.
Have decided on my Fab Four ARF but will wait for new blog before posting it.

Survived the shopping trip yesterday..my mother was insistent on long and black for said dress..ended up short and red! And being a size 8 she looks fabulous and not mutton at all as she was paranoid about! Fabulous lunch too (www.zestbarandgrill.com in case anyone ever headed up my way!)so a good day all round!
Well done to Debs2 GD on results..fab! And to Boleyn and anyone else waiting for them then fingers crossed still!
Hope everyone is keeping fine and dandy.. only one day left til a long weekend-yippee! (i actually only get Sun and Mon off but having 2 days together is such a rarity it feels like an eternity!).

Tango: I agree with you - I want Shooting Stars to have the same format - that's the whole point of the show! And yes, of course, if TFIF came back, we wouldn't want it to have changed too much.
But, I must also agree with Tinsel, I cannot bear Ulrika - she absolutely does my head in. She is the one and only thing I would change about SS - she has never, at any time, contributed anything remotely funny - IMHO!
