Think you're right. I've waved to the lurkers.

Any chance you can come to our Xmas lunch?

I have a friend whose offered me free parking in Blackheath and I'm going to stay with my sister-in-law so won't have to worry about accommodation - 3 hours though to get into the venue.”

I'd imagine it'll be a right chaos and very very packed

The traffic will be hell...!!

I'll be watching all from my sofa

What do you like watching most?

Athletics, gymnastics, swimming, tennis, badminton and riding.
Like you I'll be watching most of it on my TV. I've bought friends in the US and NZ some small souvenirs.

News is just showing that pickpocket gangs from Spain are coming to the UK just in time for the Olympics. Just what we need.

One thing we are going to do is to go by boat - less chance of thieves. I also have a money belt which I'm getting out of storage.

Right, I must get going, see you tomorrow.

See that some of the Opening Ceremony is being cut as it is too long - A BMX routine evidently.

Have a lovely evening. . . see you tomorrow

Yeh remember I know you so I know you did not just opened it.

You opened it up and probably drink 7/8 off the botle before giving any to others.

Good to see John happy and settling in.

By the way, remember 6th August we will be discussing DARK FIRE - just thought I'd throw that in.”

Champagne and cakes? Yummy I will have some too.

Georgy don't be so gready and give us something.

We spent many a happy hour turning the wine bottles... You don't get over an experience like that, it's imprinted on my brain! ”

Want to watch the Opening Ceremony. Heard that George Michael is doing something for the Closing Ceremony. Think I'll have to watch it upstairs as hubby isn't sporty.

As for TOWIE - have to agree with you lover. I watch it when I can't fall asleep. My big question is - where do these people get their money to buy shops and to spend money on clothes and plastic surgery. . .?”

I think the TOWIE crew get their money from their mums and dads........who live in the brentwood /chigwell area and have loads of cash...think of the kids of the parents in Birds of a feather.......!!!

and ive caught up completely now....

its lovely to see the thread so busy and so full of old friends

I feel really sorry that the BMX section has been taken out of the opening ceremony

I bet those guys (and girls?) have practiced for years, and some may even be local Londoners

That would be good

Anyone who'd like to come should let nyannie (our social secretary

) know - we'd be really pleased to see you

Ali you were asking about scotts tweets to josie....ive no idea what all that is about...as scott is meant to be a friend of johns from home....

but then again....lovely as it is to hear from john....I have no real idea what on earth he is doing over here at the moment???

is it just a holiday...or something longer term??

Evening all, you all seem to be having a good time

Wasn't sure whether to mention or ask if anybody knew what the story is with Scott and his tweeting of John's ex, wasn't sure if the AT was up for discussion of that kind these days lol... so I put it on the CT, although it's hard to know where to discuss that sort of thing these days!

I just decided to ignore the obvious on the whole issue, myself. But that's a personal decision........I should think the CT might be a good place for it at the moment.......

Hope you can make the Christmas lunch by the way

That's why I didn't post it here - being in reminiscing mode

, we used to have some good discussions on here but I do wonder if that time has passed.
