Elphieeee! Love you! xx

"Was I very rude?"
"You've been worse."

I love that Syed can't stay angry at Christian for more than about a day, if that. I love the scene in the caf where they're talking about kids and Christian says Syed will be a disciplinarian... while Syed struggles to remain pissed off and not smile at him and then gives up after about 30 seconds. Yeah, he's going to be a real hard-arse with Yasmin.

I understand now why Syed had to be the one who cheated. Christian might've forgiven him quickly, but Syed would've been like 'you bastard!!!' etc. And about an hour later he would've felt bad for shouting at him, decided it was his fault, and would promptly go and apologise to Christian :sleep: No drama there.

I'm a bit of both apparently! . Thanks Jenn

Elphie, helloooooooooooo, lovely to see you!! xxx

Arghh damm you mystery bidder. *shakes fist*

But yay for charity, the mystery item is at over 100 quid now

Absolutely, there's something really sexy about it that goes beyond Marc being in a towel, I don't quite know what it is. That episode was a chemistry goldmine. Pretty sure that sofa-shoving scene is the most chemistry Marc and Johnny ever had. And I do NOT say that lightly.


Hi! It's so good to 'see' you. You were always one of my favourite posters. I really hope you're good!! Your sweetness and positivity contrasted with your bitter Amira loathing was an incredible sight to behold.

Thank you everyone contributing puzzles and all kinds of great stuff. And talking as well. I've missed this so much!

*Waves to anyone of the old posters lurking out there*


OMG, elphie!! So good to see you here even if it can't be much.

Hope you're doing great. Much love and kisses back at ya! xxx


Well, would you know it. The indecisive, constantly-on-the-fence, it-might-be-this-but-then-again-it-might-also-be-that one is... A Little bit of both :sleep:
Thank you so much for this, Jenn!

elphie! Lovely to see you xxx


BIB LOL

Auction: I don't even know what it is! What if it's a mouldy banana (albeit touched by an awesome person :sleep.

Then again it could be a red towel.

Arghh, the anguish.

ETA: Yes, I'm top bidder again

/money to burn apparently

It's pure filth and I laaaarve it.

Elphie!!!! How lovely to see you - hope to chat again at some point. Hope you can enjoy a bit of time in the gutter if nothing else!

There was a certain mischievious playfulness about them, I think it was the mood they were in at the time that really lent to the scene. There was a similar vibe to that jogging in the square/love handles/sucking on a water bottle scene


Ha! Just goes to show how accurate Jenn's test really is

Found the quotes game

Thanks Sylae!

Sylae LOVING your idea of the red towel......imagine that!

MT your posts are making me laugh so much

I just found another awesome thing, the Chryed Memory card game....this is really addictive!

http://matchthememory.com/chryed

Thanks to whoever originally made it.

Ha, so fitting for you!


Yeah, I think the lines are kind of blurred between Johnny/Marc and Christian/Syed in those scenes. I get the same kind of vibe from bed scene, too.

I forgot the persuasive power of this thread....always *just one more refresh...* :sleep:


HA!!! Why thank you Optimistic yet intensely bitter, sums it up! Your posts always made me smile Even in the bleakest piper/Danny/Amira filled days!

Right I reeeeally better go now, but I'll be back tomorrow I'm intrigued as to what this secret ebay item is....maybe it's the bed scene bed sheets? :sleep: Ok probably not, but hey, might get the bidding even higher

Love to all, speak soon Xxx

((Hugs)) :

*waves to elphie* Good to see you, hope you're ok

Thanks for the personality quiz, jenn I'm Syed apparently


BIB:...whilst wearing a kilt :sleep:

Loved all of those scenes.
And let's not forget how sofa-push scene contributed to some of the best smut ever written (I will NEVER let you forget that, my dear Cos I love that fic so much )

It is absolutely dead on :sleep: . But she always was a really clever girl, our Jenn



It is so very me

When you say it I think you're quite right about the running- and towel scenes. Bed-scene... it has a very special vibe, but for me I'm not sure it's the same kind. For me it's that cheeky, naughty thing that says Ellitridge, and I don't feel that as much in bed-scene

Just seen that Joey Branning's leaving EE.

I was no fan of his, but, um. Are they going to have any characters left?! I glanced at the Soap Movers list the other day and there are sooo many people leaving (zero characters I would've missed, though. But, still.)

Also, MH has updated and this chapter is even more fab than usual. That fic has been my lifeblood these past few months.

Well, I've been on here for 12 hours solid thought I'd just 'pop on' for a couple of hours......who was I kidding eh?

So tired now, so got to go but be back tomorrow for lots more fun. Thank you so much to everyone who has made it a really fun day, wonderful day of reminiscing and fun, thank you to every single person who has posted!

Because I was always superstitious, there is no way I can sign off without saying.....

Love is Prevailing. xxx

Flatterer!

But you're all welcome for the quiz thingy. Quite a few Syeds in the house

Oh, I just meant that I feel like I can see Ellitridge coming through in all of the scenes, especially bed scene. Not that the scenes themselves have the same vibe. I totally agree- bed scene is kind of giggly and giddy and, like, 'wow, we're actually getting married'. Not really sexy, which is weird considering they're naked in bed... Unlike 'red towel' and the 'bottle biting' scenes, which are really flirty and dirty.

ELPHIE!!!!!! So glad to see you!






It's so hard to put your finger on it...you all have described it beautifully...for something so intangible...

Not flattering - just truth as Always


Ah, gotcha ( ) Yeah, I understand what you mean, there might be a bit of Ellitridge shining through in bed-scene too, I'm not sure I know enough about them to tell, i just associate that miscievous behaving-like-a-couple-of-five-year-olds- vibe more to them.

Yeah, it's actually quite weird how bed-scene is not actually very "sexy" but just as you say, giddy, giggly, happy, sort-of-incredulous, and sensual, but not sexual... and at the same time so totally and obviously post-coital.

ETA: Night, night Star (and Elphie) Love is prevailing! xxx

This is so weird - going out for the evening and then having pages of thread to catch up on. I can't think of a good analogy - like something you used to do all the time, then stopped doing for a year, then went back to doing and it should be odd, but it's like the most natural thing in the world, but also a bit unfamiliar. I'm sure you are all feeling it too.


I am... CHRISTIAN! Hardly surprising really.


ELPHIEEEEEEEEEEE! So so so good to 'see' you. (((squishes Elphie)))


Yay! And thanks to everyone posting games and puzzles and quizzes. I have been doing them, albeit after everyone's gone to bed. I'm not bad at the picture puzzles, but completely suck at anagrams.

OK, I'm feeling a bit bad now that people are bidding so much money for something they don't even know what it is, and I'm worried that people are assuming it is something it isn't. And I know you're all adults, and it's your money, and it's your risk, and I have made no promises and it's all going to charity, but I really just want to say two things:
1) Please don't bid if you can't afford it
2) Please don't try and guess/imagine you know what it is, or even that it is something spectacular.

To ease my guilt slightly, here is the next clue to what it is.

It is two sheets of white A4 paper.

Now, as you were...
