Morning



I hadn't noticed this notice

Looks like something he read on a cereal box or something
You crack me up

Nice to see upbeat tweets,now that will be a start,just to talk with those that likes him,but not necessarily hats on him or someone else

So like Ucra said,we only have to complain a bit,before he starts tweeting

Keep up good work,cheerleaders

Alex, did John tweet this? In what context?

My first thought is that it says, if you're looking out for my tweets, and saw this, do you think you could be doing something more useful with your time, because this doesn't mean a lot?


Although this is my first thought, my second is that I can't be right, because John values his supporters and wouldn't tweet anything of the kind My second thought must be right?
No real context. Tbh, I'm with Muggins on this. Something he read recently on a cereal packet which took his fancy . . . akin to those Notebook platitudes. Maybe leave the cryptic speculation of hidden meanings to the joint thread.

Absolutely!! Not everything has to have a hidden meaning... some things just are...

I don't think the tweet text has meaning, but I do think it was his way of saying 'okay I'm on twitter now so I'll speak if you tweet' sort of thing, cause he's not great at conversation ... was a good opener

I'm trying so hard not to read the Xmas posts Not to be rude or anything, I just don't like to think about Xmas until December time
I know, I don't like to think of Xmas this early either but I can't stand rushing around at the last minute. To be honest Muggins, not to be unkind, but between you and me the thread choir needs some work. They sing beautifully, particularly georgy, but once the xylophone, guitar, triangle, drum and shakers get involved the whole thing falls apart! Don't want to overwork them though.

I think reading between the lines - the tweet came from years and years of suppressed and profound hidden feelings and emotions of deep untamed desire's of an inner complex of psychophysiological experiences of an individual's state of mind interacting with biochemical and environmental influences.

Any thoughts on this ALI

although I kind of understand the feeling....it will take us months to actually get ready, and we are only trying to find a joint project to unite us.....

and if christmas decorations etc are in the shops.......

maybe we could do a brief encore of the birthday/ football cheers.....
Let's just concentrate on the carols and music for the moment.

You are all doing great, just thought though, should we ditch the instruments and sing a capella? We could then get those who don't want to sing into some kind of a tableau.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks augusta for posting all the tweets. For those of us on and off twitter.

I find it interesting that A&J didn't vote Aaron as one of the more boring ones; guess they think it tactically more clever to stay on his good side now that they have figured out he's most popular.

I am loving how happy and fun the house is without them both though; although the task and scary stuff helps obviously

oh no that wouldnt be any fun at all......


I love doing percussion, cos some of the instuments are so odd and make such impressive noises.....

I always especially liked the thing that made a bird noise, and the rainmakers..... and of course the triangle and bells...

whe we go to the music shops, I gravitate towards all the percussion instruments and look longingly at them all,
but as im meant to be a grown up I cant just pick them up and play with them all... Which I have always felt to be a huge shame....

Years ago, i did put small cowbells on all the doors so they would tinkle as the door opened and shut....and wanted desperately to buy a whole set of wind chimes for the garden.....

but we never had the money for the wind chimes, and my husband said the cowbells were too noisy!!

But i don't think Aaron is boring,he is just miserable and sulk a lot.I'll say Louise and Jem are boring.....

Tonight's episode has to be funny,though i think last years tasks were better,except 2 that were dire lol.

what is the twist.....? Hasnt the bedsit idea been done before, both in BB5 and last year in UBB? So isnt the joke on C5..who think its a twist...when it isnt really a twist...and everybody is in on it..?
.
.who is actually up for eviction this week? and is anybody actually voting?

Do you think John has ever bothered to properly watch BBUK, or just did it for his research the year before he entered?

You sound like you'd have been perfect working for BB Live Feed Department - making the noises over the parts we weren't allowed to hear

There's no voting yet - I think the twist is that BB have let Anton and Jaye think they can alter the nominations, but that they really won't be able to. Although, lack of voting might mean they can do that, which I hate.. I agree with the man on BOTS the other day, I'm a noms purist.

Maybe the HM's not attending the premiere are up for eviction - and will that include A&J? I guess we have to find out soon if they want that voting revenue!

He started the tweet session by linking to Joe Donaghe's video of the football matches
Then he did about 10 or so personal replies to various loys, most of whom I recognise as John specific suppporters,
before sending out his notice notice....but that is the only one that would have gone out to all the people following him......so maybe he was sending it out to wonder why so many people are still following him?


Read them from the bottom up.....

It was lovely to hear from John James. He seems to be happy now maybe staying away for twitter for bit, he now chatting to fans which is nice.
Hello Cazzy
it is lovely to hear from him again
we are getting a little spoilt,
his now tweeting lots of fans
it does seem funny only 2 weeks ago
we were wondering if we would hear from him again
all the best georgyx

Oh, I do love a good capella

But, nyannie, don't you think it might show up some of our imperfect singing?? I think we can manage carols and instruments, with a few volunteers dressing up to lend extra atmosphere.......don't forget, I offered to be a shepherd (aka lamby_loue)
