It will! J will always be doing something and we'll follow and support him. ❤ 😍 💕

Just read on the MF that Jezza and Alex Jones are presenting the One Show live from behind the scenes at Strictly tomorrow evening.

Should be fun.

Going back to the IACGMOOH discussion, I think Aliona has the last word on the subject

.....and https://twitter.com/AlionaVilani/sta...12131241025537

I'd sort of hoped that Aliona's reply would be "Not in a million years, tweeties ...!"

That blasted programme is the height of naffness

Yes, that 'this year' is a bit worrying

I'll just add WoW WoW WoW

Yes, I noticed that too. Surely she wouldn't commit to something so naff?

She's such a classy dancer, why waste time with creepy crawlies - and I'm not just talking about the insects....

^^^^

Hey, if she wants to do it, then she can do it. Just not this year! And hopefully not any year

Just watched yesterday's Bake Off and now understand J's love for Val. Such poignant words of grace from her...

Just seen this

http://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-...lam-photoshoot

Bruno seems unable to name ANY previous winners. Not even Jay! Just how pissed is he when he judges?

Exactly! - Bruno and Ed Balls both scared to name previous winners.

Living their lives in fear.

Contrast that with Aliona - not scared to name next Series winners.

I have to say that it has lessened my respect for him a little - how much attention can he really be paying if he can't even name last year's winner??? And he went on Tour with them for a month!

Good pic - though J looks a little weary - maybe?

Any idea where it was taken, Korky?

There have just been a couple of clips posted on you-tube of Jay interacting with fans outside the stage door in Wimbledon on Saturday, including one with him talking about the first page of his BIG script - this might increase the ticket sales!

Can't say it enough really - he is just so charming.

I'm sorry to have cropped some of your posts. I did it to save space. I hope you don't mind.


Thank you ahouch, I'm glad you enjoyed it. And yes, indeed, it was very kind of jayfan.


Thank you very much for your kind words, Polly.


Drizzle, Such kind words. Thank you.


I'm glad you enjoyed it, jayfan. Thank you.


How kind, thank you StrictlyRed


Thank you, Korky. I'll continue in a separate post.


BB, thank you so much.


Thank you very much, Fatskia. It's so nice to hear your voice, as it were.


Thank you, mantaray. Your words are very kind.


Whiffle, how very kind. Thank you.

Perhaps Jayfanfun is easier to say.........
I actually wrote Jaysfansfun. But that's probably a bit of a mouthful........or maybe not..................

I'm so touched by your kind words, Korky, and very much appreciate that you enjoyed it. I'll try to remember more about the day, but as I said in my report, it wasn't long before I became quite whirly with it all. Nice whirly, tho'. I met Aliona a couple of times: lovely lady. And I remember meeting Jay several times, and exchanging a few words: just wish I could remember what they were. Who knew Twitter could be so helpful: at least I don't have to try to remember that lofty exchange................

ETA. Hope the word 'whirly' hasn't got some awful, new meaning in the Urban Dictionary. All the words are back-to-front, it seems. Wicked, sick etc.

Morning all,

Thought I'd pop in and post this pic from Twitter. It was part of a collage and then Ali asked for a version of it on its own. She must really like it. I love the movement of her hair😊

https://twitter.com/dizzzyb/status/779065198720212992

ETA: Thanks for the You Tube videos with Jay talking to fans Korky.I spy Kazxie in the second one. It does however frustrate me a little as he's so friendly and chatty with everyone. It makes me wish I could have gotten over my nerves and embarrassment and actually had a meaningful conversation with him, especially as he was sat right opposite me! Oh well maybe next time😉

What a lovely photo- thanks Ahouch

I am sure there will be a next time. 👍

Thanks for the vids Korky.
It is indeed Kazzie on the second one.
Dancingfosse is speaking on the first.

Gleb and Kristina are doing a show together in London in December.
Glad to see the prof dancers making the most of their exposure on the show.

ETA I meant the last comment. I was being sarcastic.

Err sadly it does have a new meaning. Apparently a whirly is to put someone's head down a toilet and flush it! Gross!

Anyway, have a good day all.

What a lot of early birds. Love the little video but Y-fronts - is it retro or are they back in fashion?

Last night's sinister activity on the PC appears to have been the Windows 10 update. I have yet to see whether or not it's broken the system. (As I was typing this, everything froze and I had to reboot. fortunately it appears to have been saved)

Since I'm likely to be out for most of the day I thought I would fulfil yesterday's promises, so here are lists, new jobs, jayfan jobs and a few words. Rafferty, lucky I read your post first as I have had time to amend your offering! and yes, I am among admirers of your prose

NEW JOBS
TUCKER-IN
KorkyTheCat << I have previously asked for the Jayjob of Tucker-In but was warded off the undercrackers so I am now reapplying. I would carry out my duties with great care and gentle hands so as not to startle. I would mention that I do have previous experience in this department but prefer not to give further details. After my intervention J would be basking in so much comfort and confidence and this would show in his work, especially with his Big production... Hoping to hear favourably from you and thanks for your continuing Jaywork. >>
Drizzle1 << I think with all Korkys other Jay jobs, she is the most qualified to be tucker inna of said shirts. >>
hannah 01. << Spot on >>
KorkyTheCat << Must say though that had I been approved as Tucker-In to J he wouldn't be so hangy-outy. Thanks for your support Drizzle. I shall remember you in my will. >>
hannah 01. << Arent you deputy to the holder of the post relating to all things ( predictive text typed thongs there ....) undercrackers in the current absence of the incumbent post holder? He needs someone to prevent undercrackers and shirt parting company whilst on stage >>
KorkyTheCat << The situation is a bit murky as some holders of Jayjobs seem to have left the thread but their jobs can't really be re-distributed in case they should return. I will most gladly womanhandle J's clothing with tender loving care at any time and perhaps sew him into his combined shirt/pants combo. I will be extra careful unpicking the stitches after the show!! (options we made earlier illustrated) Think I prefer the hands-on solution though.. >>
hannah 01. << You do have his undercrackers in your hands,( Jays not Mr Hannahs.) I am sure you worked with Snippy. Positive in fact >>
KorkyTheCat << Then unless/until Snippy returns I shall take care of J from neck to thigh. I will certainly have my hands full now. >>
Isih << I think you are right, hannah. The best solution is to create a separate job for just these situations, then if snippy deigns to return it can be shared according to circumstances >>
APPOINTED: KorkyTheCat

FLOUR DUSTER AND CHOCOLATE REMOVER
daziechain << Loads more Jay and Aliona adventures to come I'm sure, we have already willed some of them into being (wanting them to continue dancing together after Strictly for instance) and who knows what's to come. Jay's shown an interest in baking now so maybe he'll be in the Comic Relief Bake Off (if they continue) ... or Masterchef. I for one desperately want to see him covered in flour and/or licking chocolate off of his fingers!!! >>
KorkyTheCat << Might I tentatively put myself forward for the Jayjob of Flour Duster and Chocolate Remover? I would ensure that he is cleaned from hair to toes (my methods to be kept confidential between employer and employee). I love the taste of chocolate...>>
BionicBard << Careful where you cough up those furballs....! >>
isih << I think this should perhaps go hand in hand with COOKERY TEACHER ? Comments please>>

JAYFAN'S JAYJOBS (and you were the one who originally suggested the Jayctionary (name courtesy Tsuntsu))
SPECIAL AGENT (Civil (or not so civil) War Alert, with apologies if adaptations do not suit)
Lola the cat <<Korky, it is clear from the number of job applications you have submitted that you are extremely keen on "being there" for young master James. I have a fantasy of being a super spy, and have immaculate credentials, watching every episode of Spooks and the film so I know how to track down and kidnap someone. For a small fee (shares in the subject) I am willing to collect James and deposit him in a safe house where you can minster to his needs to your heart's content. Please let me know by secret dead drop if you would like me to proceed.>>
jnb_7 <<Er, just remember there are already 3 Jaygents in JCHQ so ask if you're disrupting any current missions Translation: back off, I demand at least a third of the time - unless of course 00jayfan & Agent A want to share as well, in which case I make it 4 hours 48 minutes each, bagsy non sleeping minutes, ta very much>>
nos lowen <<Korky & Lola - is this what happens when cats get opposable thumbs? He won't stand a chance...>>
Lola the cat <<Ha, you will have to find us in the safe house first
jnb_7 <<How do you know it's not OUR safe house, huh???? Mwahahahaaaa>>
KorkyTheCat <<Thank you for your very kind suggestion but I shall have to decline your offer as I have just read the posts succeeding yours...>>
isih <<is this prudence or simple cowardice?>>
Following discussion as to whether Jay was in Bruges with the Kavanaghs and his brother/missus
StrictlyRed <<I don't think J was there (only 4 places at the dinner table).>>
fridgesoup <<Oh, well spotted! (That must earn you some credits towards your Jaygent badge)>>
StrictlyRed <<I know. I feel so proud. I played the great detective on here a few months back too, although I can't remember what that was about now. That means I have 2 credits.>>
isih <<If existing agents are satisfied with the progress of StrictlyRed, could she be awarded the nom de guerre of Agent S?>>
APPOINTED: jnb_7, jayfan, Arnostae, Lola the cat (aka Agent J, 00jayfan, Agent A and presumably Agent L). Agent S to be confirmed

JAY WHISPERER
janetshep <<While waiting for Jayfan's post, can I propose her for the new Jayjob of Jay Whisperer. She has developed an amazing understanding with a coltish young man, which enabled her to lead him by the hand into unknown destinations to meet a bunch of unknown women. There can be no challenge to her qualifications! Respect!>>
CatO9Tales <<I noticed the firm grip on his hand so that he couldn't run out of the door screaming>>
APPOINTED: Jayfan

PRINGLE PROVIDER (PERSONAL)
jayfan <<I thought he wanted Pringles not pizza? Is there a JayJob providing a ready supply of Pringles???>>
isih <<Don't forget the hummus!>>
KorkyTheCat <<I inferred that he was just randomly rhyming, having picked up the idea from reading this thread, but you could always try applying formally.>>
hannah 01. <<I tweeted to ask just that. Well was he aiming at Haiku>>
KorkyTheCat <<No, authentic Haiku is 5:7:5 syllables. I think maybe he's not Josh; he's just a very naughty boy.>>
jayfan <<Wouldn't it be nice if he was inspired to rhyme by reading this thread?>>
KorkyTheCat <<It would be simply Jayvellousderfulsationaltacularpendoustonishing!>>
isih <<I thought he already did pomes?>>
APPOINTED : No decision as yet, Korky and jayfan still in the running
