John James still looks amazing, and it is great to think of them being able to be friends after all this time.

what a way to engage more interest in BB!!


and great to see so many old friends on here..........I was wondering why today felt such a strange day....and now I know.....

Good to see him back. Hope he stays for a while - guess he has no girlfriend - hope he sees Mario, JJ and Dave - all of them have disappeared.

I loved seeing John last night on BOTS.People on twitter over reacting.They deffinately met before in the green room and seem to have been in touch over the years going by John's twitter a few times.
There is a clip of the moment they met on OK's website - did look awkward!

Good to see you ucra - hope all is well with you.

Hello

i know..... i have also neglected the thread
first sickness, then life got in the way

slowing down now...... but i thought i would pop in to see
how everyone was reacting to John being back, could barely watch BBOTs, but thats
fairly normal for me...... terrible program

well he looked nervous and shy, so no change there
going to have a little read back, see what you have all been up to

We're all back, how wonderful. So good to see you all here.
You summed it up perfectly georgy, "Life got in the way."

John looked well, but so awkward at times bless him. He seemed fairly clued up on BB, far more than me, haven't got a clue who these people are lol.

Oh how I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when they came off air.

The gang is all here now. Life does get in the way sometimes - as do online courses, leaky roofs, bad hayfever/asthma etc etc.

Good to see you georgy and Lena - I too would have loved to be a fly on the wall. I wonder if we will hear any more of John.

I'm off to London for an Art Course. Have a good weekend everyone.

It has a habit of doing that lol

John always looked uncomfortable being interviewed, he is after all a fairly shy man, that
then puts on a big boy act to cover it up

as for being a fly on the wall, hmmm that would of been interesting, have to say i was slightly relieved that he has tweeted since the show, and is still alive and well

All in one piece lol.

I guess we should thank John for bringing us all back together again, nothing for ages and then he suddenly pops up.

Well I have survived the heat - truly awful.

Just about to wash utility room floor and saw loads of ants - sprayed the floor to within an inch of its life. Now will wash and spray again. Been outside with spray powder!

Keep cool everyone.

just popping in, glad to see that John is still around..........is this a uk photo or one from back in Australia?

and how has everyone been? I feel as if life is just taking over at the moment, time seems to have speeded up , and I don't have enough time to relax and to do anything properly!!

Maybe its just this cold I'm suffering from!!

so who else is watching strictly?

I have shamefully neglected the thread, guess real life just takes over.

Looks as if our extended summer season is over (mind you it took a while to get going to start with), October already and the nights are drawing in. The autumn duvet went on this last week, I'm fed up with being chilly in bed.
Heading into my least favourite time of year.

I won't be sorry to see the back of 2016, it seems to have been a year of family illness and general upset.
My MiL passed away in July, so we've had to deal with family, funeral, probate (still ongoing) and finally interment of ashes next Friday.

Hope you're all keeping well and life is treating you well.

Hi augusta, we've been saying if you didn't know better you'd think that time has been speeded up. The days just seem to disappear no matter how early we start.

Do you have a favourite on Strictly? I did see that the line up included Lesley Joseph, the Olympic long jump guy (his name escapes me at the moment) and Ed Balls!!

Have to admit I'm not a fan of Strictly, X Factor (how many times a week are these programmes on??) or the dreaded Bake Off. I loath cooking so derive no pleasure from watching people bake. Couldn't believe that with all the things going on in the world the front pages of national newspapers spent two days, TWO DAYS reporting on the loss of the programme to Channel 4.

I love a good drama myself, have been enjoying Paranoid, DCI Banks and National Treasure. For a bit of light entertainment we do enjoy Hunted on C4, when will the contestants ever learn to stay off their mobiles and stop leaving an electronic trail on their tablets, laptops etc.

Seem there's lots of snuffles around at the moment, hope you feel better really soon. Sending good wishes your way. xx

Thanks so much for the pic ucra, good to see John. I had almost forgotten what he looked like.

Good to hear you and yours are well - my goodness time flies too fast these days.

Still busy, still glad to be alive - dislike both candidates in US elections - I have voted for a minority party. Really poor candidates - cannot believe this is the best the US can do.

Hope everyone keeps well and happy - see you soon
