oooh oooh please may i join....been a professional lurker for years tbh but this thread is the highlight of my weekend.... i was sooooooooooooooo happy going to bed saturday knowing that t*t nancy had departed.....

oooh and i can supply choc chip brownies and a gallon of wine if needed

10s for everyone, I'm guessing! She's going to make Alesha seem restrained in comparison!

The english equivalent of an hors d'oevre!

I can bring a magnum of champagne to celebrate Nancy's exit, and I'll be making pizza for anyone who wants it.

Is there a dress code for Saturday evenings on this thread?

Funnily enough, nobody's ever mentioned a dress code before - I'll settle for a sparkly number for a bit of bling and glamour for a Saturday

I think Lulu maybe off this week; with Nancy going I think it will really open things up - I do like a shock eviction though

Reprting for duty with the marigolds on to clear up after i made a mess with my peach cobbler last weekend.

i'm making houmous this weekend-lemon & coriander & will rustle up some warm pittas and wine too

Welcome and the choc chip brownies and a gallon of wine will be very welcome.


Champagne very welcome Maybe we should all wear copies of the Nancy rumba dress. Or in my case maybe not


Hoummous and pittas will be great. I've ordered some special pink fizz from one of my suppliers as well so we can pretend it is pink champagne.

I dunno what that is either. Is it food and pronounced differently?

Well Strictly SC4 I know how but fin d it an irritatingly time consuming.

God - now I've added to the thread 3 times.

See you Saturday night.

Lol Ignazio - you're warming to this thread aren't you - always welcome here *passes some pringles over*

See how easy it is to make the thread longer Yes it is time consuming but some of us have to have some fun while waiting.

Does anyone know yet if we have a mole for the result?

Failing the usual sources I know 2 friends who are going and will ask them to call me as soon as they come out... but going on the last few weeks, the usual sources for the spoiler seem to be passing it onto here even before the studio audience know.

Thanks, SaraV1308. It does look as though we shall get the result early again.

BTW my real name is Barb/Barby/Barbara - depending on how formal you want to be.

Hi,
I usually creep in about 5am on a Sunday morning, so if anyone is still about, I'll do the bacon butty and coffee run, unless there's any posh people around who want croissants.

Making chocolate brownies and cookies in preparation

It is just a general term for nibbles prior to main course (or even starter in some cases) poncily called amuse bouche in up themselves cookery programmes and restaurants these days it seems

Hor d'oeuvres pronounced or durve is the proper name but we're not posh in my house and we call them horses doovers

Hope that helps

We're even less posh in our house because we call them whore-dwevers.

We're even more less posh - we call them crisps or peanuts

Will be making a nice spicy chilli with tortillas and sour cream, should keep us nice and warm, may even stretch to making some cupcakes and if my pumpkin purree arrives it will be sticky pumpkin loaf as well

Wake me up a bacon butty and green tea sounds lovely.

so people who are we thinking will leave this week, personally I don't want to loose anyone now we've got rid of that awful woman. Think Lulu and Audley could be in danger this week, but time will tell.

It certainly sounds as though we will have plenty of food tomorrow night. I've got some cheapo champagne to mix with Creme de Cassis - sort of alcoholic Ribena for those who don't know - to make Kir Petillants to go with the horses doovers. They are commonly known as amuse bouche in France although they are not quite the same as an hors d'oevres trolley.

I suspect Audley and Lulu will be in trouble tomorrow too.

I too think Audley and Lulu, but as I said earlier up the thread I love a shock eviction though

Can only bring jelly babies again this week, sorry same as last week. But can also do vodka and diet coke just found out no fat in vodka. Just cant eat or drink anything with much fat in as get gall bladder out on 18 Nov, so can eat and drink loads after that. Will bring a feast for the final, promise.
