Just back from duties and will be off again in a minute. Hope you feel better today Mrs. P. And of course everyone in the sick bay at the moment

Just a thought, she may have retweeted the above notebook quote regarding Luke, who knows #justsaying lol.

Sorry that reads as if i didn't intend to post in this thread.

I meant it sent me to go advanced and i didn't press anything.

See you probably at weekend all being well.

Or maybe sooner if i can get my mojo back.

thanks Wendy in bed woke up about an hour ago.
yes it was an odd tweet to retweet when you are happy happy happy, I had a look at the notebook tweets for that day and THAT is the one she chose weird. The only other explanation is that she was talking about the new BB.As i haven't watched a single episode I don't know did any housemates say they didn't know what they wanted?

Bye Shem hope you sort your problems out very soon , xxxx

Don't know Pickles, I only have it on to HEAR Marcus Bentleys voice. Worst BB EVERRRR and I've watched them all, but not this one, only on my box for Marcus, my attention is on this thread not the tv I have to say. It's so one dimensional it's unbelievable. At the end of the day Josie's tweets are a bit 'ummm' for someone with a bf, and she does have the biggest mouth in Brizzle - so I agree with you I also think, my opinion, that if she wanted to keep bf quiet and private she would have done her damnest to keep him out of the mags but thats just my opinion and I know that would be a tough ask, but celebs do it. I still love Josie and mean no harm by saying what I think.

right I am going to drag my stinky self to the bathroom it is not about being sick and smelly now is it?

I do think Josie is with Luke. It may or may not be a heavy relationship. The thing is we were so used to John and Josie being together so much, I mean sometimes you couldn't get a hair between them, that we are perhaps judging that Josie should be like that with Luke because it was the norm in our eyes.
Josie said in one of the first interviews that to spend 24/7 with someone is unhealthy, and Luke is in full time employment and is 24. So his days are filled up with work and as a young man likes to go to the pub and watch footie with his mates or perhaps shoot some pool. John was a homebird and didn't like going out, Luke maybe the average 24 year old male.Likes to go and have a couple of pints with his mates after a hard days work. Josie is a busy girl so they fit in the times they can see each other around their busy lives even if it may be a couple of hours a day. Whose to say that last night Luke was out with his mates and Josie was up waiting for him as he was spending the night at hers.
What I'm trying to say is don't expect the same relationship that John and Josie had. Luke and John are 2 completely different men.

I know Josie retweeted this. And you know how I feel about these daft Notebook sayings. And to me, personally, this is one of the daftest. Why should one person's life revolve totally around another person? People are individuals in my opinion, even if they are in a couple. If a man or woman says that, it could mean a thousand things - not what the saying actually says. No-one should ever define a couple's relationship in such simple terms. No relationships are that simply defined. Are people not allowed to want other things or other people in their lives just because they're in a relationship? Maybe I'm misunderstanding this saying - and certainly it can, as most of these sayings, be interpreted in different ways. Maybe this is why John and Josie's relationship didn't work - because Josie sees relationships in these simple terms, and John saw it as something rather more complex. I haven't a clue. And nor do any of us. There was a discussion along these lines yesterday. I liked what you said yesterday, Mrs P.

mORNING pICKLES , and everyone, back from my mini break, sorry to hear you are still in the sick bay ,hope you start to feel better soon

Hope you are back soon, Shem, and that whatever's going on in RL gets resolved soon.

well it is impossible to compare we know absolutely loads about one and absolutely nothing about the other except his age and occupation . We don't even know if he is currently working or unemployed working partime or fulltime. We don't know if he likes footie, fifa, staying in biting his toenails or anything.We know nothing about him so I won't compare the relationship . All I base my instincts on are Josie and I know she is incapable of keeping quiet for long about someone she is enamoured of she can try but can she do it for long? I would bet my granny she can't. I just think they are together but not seriously but like I said I might be wrong.
PS good to see you back on the thread againxx

thanks for that, do you think shes refering to john ??

Speak later Pickles, rest please. I will be back on after sorting Grumpy Drawers


Yay hey you're back. Good girl

I see what you're saying Lorraine and who's to say whats going on. We know 2/5ths of fluff all . No one knows nuffin not nuffin. And as you said last night, who's to say when Josie isn't with Luke she's not on the phone everyday, maybe 2, 3 times a day No one knows, BB cameras left Josie a long time ago. We all have our own opinions and that's the way it should be Back laters

I agree with you about the quote and all the other notebook quotes meaning less, I just thought it was strange that she picked this one and wondered why and how it related to her in any way at the moment thats all.

Personally, I can't see John thinking like this at all - he might only say something like that if he was in the middle of a blazing row or as a joke - but never mean it. He's made it quite clear that if he's not happy in a relationship he moves on. But, again, we don't know. Everything may have been different where Josie and being in England was concerned.

Yes, I know what you're saying, Mrs P. Just trying to make conversation

I haven't got a clue everyone tells me she is in a happy place at the moment so I am at a loss as to why she is retweeting this stuff unless she is talking about something in the new BB

Oakey Dokey going for a wash now speak later x

There is no need for comparision though.... This is how it should be with relationships. We shouldn't know everything...... We shouldnt' know every detail.

We got so spoilt with JJJ. We got to see them 24/7 for three months. Like who get's that when a relationship is built. Their relatioship was like no other BB relatioship ever cause we saw it ALL before our eyes. We saw it slowly turning into something special. Then when they were out in the real wordls we were again spoilt. We saw them on magazines talking about each other, we saw the documentary, we could see everything happening in our minds that they were saying cause we had seen them fight, love and live in BB, so we assumed all their fights were like on BB, all their love was like on BB. We imagined it and then we demanded more and more and more and they gave us more... But even when they didn't give us anything we could still imagine it happen.....

And now that they are no more, we can't picture them with anyone else, doing the same things. We saw how they comforted each other if the other was upset, we saw how they looked at each other and we can't imagine them doing the same with anyone else. They can't do it with anyone else..... God forbid Josie stroking anyone else's hair, God forbid John putting his arms around someone else and saying "it's ok, it's ok". Cause in our minds those actions are reserved for just them.

So now the only thing left is to repeat over and over again "we just don't know anything, we don't know if it's even serious" as if that then makes it better cause we don't have to think that they would be serious with new people......

Thanks Pickles xxx
Just reading back my post it sounds like I was quoting from the Bible with all this John and Luke all we need now is a Matthew and a Mark and we've got the full set

Question of the day
Why is it that when I order a pair of 31'' Jeans they are too long and I've now got to take them up but when I order a pair of 29'' trousers it looks like my trousers have had an argument with my shoes

nah I have a grip on reality just ! lol I can see Josie in a serious relationship and this one just might turn out that way. But when it is serious I think we will know about it cos Josie Is still in the public eye and also because Josie has a runaway mouth and no control button sometimes, I think she will be loud and proud about it. I just don't think it is at that point yet, does this make me delusional ? no !! I am a mature reasonable woman who can see the wood from the trees I can cope if this is a serious relationship I will still support them both individually and hope they are happy.
Right I have run a bath bye for now xx

Did I call you delusional?
