err No

dan says he saw them make ice cream once on Blue Peter. shell seems very excited by this - oooh, aaah. stu interested enough to ask a couple of inane questions

shell got a Blue Peter badge for a project on Oz. dan never got one

BC

Dan talking about Blue Peter - he never got a Blue Peter badge - Shell did though, for doing a project on Australia when she was 11 or 12.

Why does it not surprise me that Shell once got a Blue Peter badge...

Dan talking about a huge church-like window called The Rose Window - Talking about churches taking 100's of years to build and how the builders never see the end result - Shell continues...

My ex-husband once got a Blue Peter badge. I should point out that he was 23 and we were already married at the time........

WHATM - Shell talking about art history stuff.

Dan leading the convo on restoration and stained glass windows. Shell is taken by this but perhaps not as taken as the cameraman who today despairing of being able to get a good gusset shot of her, settles for finding a vantage point to concentrate on downshots of her cleavage..which he certainly does...........

WHATM

Dan comments on how early builders didn't have stone cutting equipment etc... and how they still managed to construct the huge churches and castles...

all the kids in my son's class at primary school got one each for making an environment garden
came in handy for him and then his younger siblings in turn to get in free to attractions. still got it somewhere

WHATM ads

BC

Just looking at the odds for winning BB - Bookies don't normally do this but, as it stands, you can bet an equal amount on everybody bar Nadia, and still make a profit if Nadia doesn't win...

Dan asking if Troy is where 'modern' Turkey is?

Dan is impressed with Greeks and their creation of the olympic games especially the 'beautifully formed' discus throwers
Stu throws a spanner in the works by asking what the Spartans where
Knowledge now seems to flounder a bit as they try to work out what and where Troy and the Trojans were

Stu speculates that Eton may want to scrap GCSE's...this turns into a discussion to compete with the overpassing aeroplane..........

I thought Stu knew all about Greek mythology etc. based on his school presentation thing from a few weeks ago. Hm.

stu wants to be spider man as he hasn't been able to see it yet

Discussion instigated by Stu on how awkward it was to have to say to mates couldn't meet up next week without being able to explain why in the week prior to BB entry.............

WHATM

Shell asks (Nadia and Dan) if they've seen the film Traffic.

WHATM:

Talking about various films which I've never seen. :yawn:

Nadia and Dan etc talking about the film Entrapment which they know what happens in but not the name of...........

I reckon that in the future BB's, they should bring 3 new HM's (that can't win the prize) into the house for the last week...

Would liven things up as we're always left with the most boring HM's for the last few days...

Back from ads to a mid converstaion on the possibility of a weekly task being set for this week...........

[quote=Voice of Reason]My ex-husband once got a Blue Peter badge. I should point out that he was 23 and we were already married at the time........

lol, ooh, ta for that, that's made me smile!

I honestly thought Stu was trying to peel a potato there...

Stu and Shell now in the kitchen preparing food. Nadia upset rather loudly about parsnips being in the minging soup or something..........

WHATM:

Dinner preparations.
