Yes please! J will soon get rid of your junk and it'll be temporary, just for a few weeks until he's built our rickety shack...😍❤

This tweet from earlier today is very apposite for all of us who have been bitten by the creative appreciation bug in all its forms:

Hmmm, you'd have us think the shack is like this, but I suspect it's more like this.

Yes, unfortunately for the Digital Spy forum you have to be linking to something that is already on the Internet, and that's where DropBox and other sites come in.

nb 10 year age difference between Irwin and Jay. Both have GSOH. Looking forward to seeing the chemistry between them on stage.”

Thanks for these speedy, will get a chance to check out your research later tonight.
I have a very, very good feeling about BIG

I took the 'posh' test but I'm currently doubting it's legitimacy ... sitting here, quaffing a rather large Pimms with all the trimmings but only scored 3/20...hmm...

Re B52s Love Shack...this was a family favourite...the children would ask for this on repeat...I'm so relieved they didn't ask for a translation.

Rosa, rest assured we will do our level best to support your cause...but as you say, Sir is prone to MIA.

Can Jay drive ? I would assume so since living in LA he'd need a car ? Unless he got lifts from friends. It's all this train travel he's doing that's got me wondering - but maybe he hasn't got fixed up with a car in the UK yet.”

Not sure, if this is the genuine Instagram account (there is/was a fake), but you can see him driving (and singing).

Thought I should have a look at the 'quiz'.

Not only no G&T Bio - no pint of lager!!

I would have to have had then a pint of water - not an option on offer either😊😁

Dry day.😂

Quiz a bogey!! 😛

Anything to do with computing, unless you are doing it for a living, is actually a lot easier than you think. Most applications use wizards so you just follow the instructions and if you go wrong you can always uninstall anything.

I use word and excel all day so I can help you with anything to do with them. You should always take a few precautions when on anything public like this forum, number 1 is take your date of birth off your profile. Go to User CP at top of page and then edit profile.

Top tip of day - if you don't know how to do anything try YouTube, you would be amazed what you can find out how to do, it doesn't just show J & A dances and TW videos!

If you have any questions - just ask, someone will know how to do it.

Hi everyone

Just got drenched by a heavy downpour and nearly got off the wrong train stop because I was reading this thread.
Definitely time for a G&T.

Glad the exam went well Beth

Hi RnR and Julie PB - long time no see/hear

Some very moving poems and messages to Jnb. What lovely people we have on this thread.

Enjoyed the late homeworks and word/short phrase reviews.

TT- rather than lurk, could I cheekily encourage you to do a screen shot/screen cap word/short phrase review of the dances? I mean that the screenshot/screen cap matches the 2/3 words you have selected to capture your feelings/thoughts about the dance? Please ignore if I am being too presumptuous.

Thanks for the links Speedy- that is my evening's diversion sorted

Wonder where Jay is? Hope the tweeter spotted by Agent J/Jnb provides more info.

I am a complete numpty on Instagram but somehow I was sent a large number of rather lovely, albeit not recent, Jay photos posted on Instagram, so Rosa, it could be worth looking there.

Finally I have not done the test but would be surprised to be posh. I don't aspire to great wealth or a glamorous life style and don't mind if other people have money and riches, although I would prefer it wasn't gained through the exploitation of others.

My pet peeve though is people with vast sums of money who look to be spending for the sake of it eg footballers with 10 flash cars they never drive or wardrobes of expensive suits they never where ( both of which applied to a famous England footballer and they weren't freebies).

Love the WIJ Instagram vids Spree. I wonder if anyone could identify WIJ from her giggle?

DD and Lola- great technical tips. I have learnt a lot of this thread from my fellow Jalionistas.

I think this is the dance I have watched the most often – I just love the gentleness of it. Rather than bore you with me rabbiting on, here are a few GIF's of my favourite moments. Hope you like them

Jayfan, was it you who asked me to send you the extract from the TW book about the auditions? If so can you pm me your email address and I'll send it now if not, apologies for my poor memory!

It's the real WIJ instagram account (but no longer in use). And no, I didn't browse through the WIJ twitter to find these as "proof"

Random old Birdspotting post

ETA: jayfan, there were rumours/speculations/accusations, but nothing was "confirmed". I was just happy to get these pictures and sometimes hilarious hashtags.

Ooh this is lovely.
As I have said before the waltz was my wow dance/start of obsession moment and like you I watch it more than any other dance.
You have captured almost all my favourite moments apart from the walk to the skip to Aliona moment that Strictly Gifs captured for me.

Considering how often I am on trains I am gutted that I have not bumped into him yet (clutching my compilation of thread Jay on a train questions of course)

Glad you liked them Jayfan. I could have just giffed (if that is actually a word) virtually the whole routine!

Btw I also got 5/20 but struggled to choose in some instances. Sometimes the answer depends on my mood. Sometimes I want fancy and sometimes I don't. Simple as that.
Plus where was Sainsbury's?”

According to Stephen Fry, he loves Sainsburys: apparently they keep the riff-raff out of Waitrose...

At the risk of excessive posting, I have to agree with this comment - just beautiful
