I can go to France and its cheap and we're allowed to take our DS's and anything we like. oh Harrisons taking his laptop! Anyway, we did tests and I made the top 30. We're the elite. And you know what that means as well??" I say computer says nooooo, "That means I've got brains and brains are good to have because you get cheap holidays" I love the way their minds work It'll do for me though, I'm very proud Sorry for the off-topc outburst there - but you know how it is lol xx

btw Did everyone see that Craig beat Keith 11-1 in a game of Squash?? Thought I'd just check that we all know now that Craig won, and Keith lost. sorry Keithlettes x yes I am rubbing it in lol - got to creep round the Boss you see, I'm hoping I'll be forgiven for almost nearly tarnishing his unblemished record in sports, with a bat and ball ”

Hi Trixie,

Glad you are having a well deserved Mothers Day treat today. Fantastic news about your son, no wonder you are so proud, Well done him.

Enjoy the rest of the day,

Love Siouxsie xxx

Thank you so much for posting this Chalmed. What a lovely interview. Craig comes across so well in it but is always so giving to others. ie never hogs the limelight for himself, this was apparent in ADWD but also at the London Palladium. He is such a star but is a fantastic team player too. This shows wholeheartedly on the CD and in his performances as Joseph too on the tour.

Hi Red Lady,

Yes, Mazza and myself are off to see Lewis on the 12th March at the matinee performance and can't wait. As you know I was thrilled to see him in December for my birthday treat when he covered for Lee who was away ill with Bronchitis and because I raved about him so much, Mazza did not need much persuading in coming to see him with me again when he is covering for Lee who will be on hols that week.

I am just really hoping that we can see him at the stage door afterwards and get an autograph as unable to do this at the concert on the 17th, although I know you did RL, you lucky, lucky lady!!!

Take care,

Love Siouxsie xxx

Firstly, a big thank you again for all the reviews from Sunday 17th. Think we now have a full evening from pizza to outside theatre, to entrance, kilted first half, song by song description, chasing of Bill Kenwright , stage door survival, a special message video and some rather special VIP reports. And to top it all a little sneaky video of Dream On live.

Thank you Henry for posting Craig's update. Sounds as if he is on top of the world at the moment. Happy news for you all re Glasgow. Happy news for the rest of us .... now - do we dare plan any summer holidays, or are we likely to be hiring a tour bus.

Am now in correspondence with HMV regarding loss of flight 'Dream On' from Jersey via Bermuda Triangle and Isle of Wight. Now purchased Mother's Day presents from Woollies yet again. Last time I shall buy on line.

Hopefully able to connect tomorrow/today - if not will join the others marooned on CCF.

P.S. Glad I'm not the only one who continually replayed the 'woooooo' on SSD from ADWD.”

Suh a lovely post Mrs P,
Thank you,

Love Siouxsie xxx

Mission accomplished!!

After over six months of him dithering and choosing, we now have a Marshall Amp to add to the stuff in this house.

Good news is that he's gone to a friends house to tune up and twang all afternoon... I think that's a result!!”

Definitely, hope it was a peaceful afternoon for you Stashy,

Does anyone know what time they usually arrive when there are 3 shows or whether they come to the stage door inbetween? Also hope it's obvious where the stage door is as I don't want to end up falling off the pier lol ! ”

Hi TracieJB,

Can't wait for Worthing on the 22nd too. We will be at the evening performance too with other Craigettes.

Do go and meet Craig after the show, he makes everyone feel so special and I think he would normally try and come out in-between each performance but as Stashy said in her post, maybe someone else can answer this more clearly for you. It will be my fourth time to meet him in person hopefully.

Take care,

Love Siouxsie xxx

Don't know if someone has posted this, but here is the photo from OK!

Our Mr Chalmers looking very debonair! - as ever

Thank you so much for posting this Stashy, they all look gorgeous especially Craig, very debonair as you say.

Think I'm on my own here on the thread this afternoon.

I was meant to be hospital visiting this afternoon but have to stay indoors now because hubby has been taken very poorly and is currently in bed asleep and I don't want to leave him on his own, so although it gives me time to be on the thread longer, I also feel terrible that I can't go and visit my aunt who is recovering from an operation. Hey ho, we can't be in two places at once and I'm hoping Mazza and her hubby can go instead of me.

Hope everyone is having a great day,

Take care,
Love Siouxsie xxx

Great for him that he got some exposure on the programme but hope it doesn't mean that he won't get noticed for other projects as think he is very talented.

Hi again

Cheers Dizzy x having a great day slobbing out doing zilch Going to buy a movie in a minute as theres nothing on telly I want to see, as usual. Die Hard 4 That's what I call a good movie for mothers day. John MacClean and a bit of yippy ky aye will do me nicely. And my Thorntons. Yum.

I watched the Euro song thing this morning siouxsie Rob did very well but the song just wasn't his kind of song I don't think. That was a song suited more for Keith Jack imo. He would've made that song into something quite dramatic and very tender, which is what was lacking for me. Rob sang all the right notes in the right places, but to me his strength is in character singing, remember how fabulous he was with Piano Man ? He was the best ! But ballads like this song didn't show him at his best.

Simona was nuts - I like her as a performer Loved the hair ! Michelle Gayle doing the demented chicken dance was just hilarious Shimmying like her life depended on it she was. Shame she didn't win, just for the comedy element. But I think the right winner was chosen with Andy Abrahams "Even If" - love his voice Mm Mmmm Nice guy, so charming when he sings and he just loves entertaining, the corwd were loving it. So hopefully he's the one who may finally get the UK off the "most hated" list Asking a lot though ain't it lol.

Back to my day of bliss now with my two 'slaves for a day' I'm going to start a food fight starting with the grapes I think. The sugar in the chocs are kicking in and I'm getting restless !

Later xxx

Thanks Red Lady! I've had a good time with my three today. Home-made cards and breakfast in bed.

Let me share a few choice bits from my 'Mother's Day Menu'

"Brand Flakes or Weetybicks"

"If there is anything you wish which is not on the list just give are wator/watres a shot"


I chose "scramboiled egg on toast" - which was delicious!


Happy Mother's Day to everyone!!

Well, thought I would follow up on this and check what the score was so I could appear knowledgeable... Found Everton's website, saw that they won 3-1 today and then it said I could look at the photos from the match.

Well, have a look at this. If its not Mr Chalmers' in the top left hand corner of the photo - only a few feet away from the new England Manager! It's teeny, but I'm sure its him!!!

Fantastic Stashy! That's dedication for you!

I'm certain its Craig, when you've looked at someone for as long as we have, you can recognise them a mile off!

How exciting for Craig to be up with the men who matter as well
