Thanks love. However, you were out with me a couple of weeks ago. If you start with a runny nose....

Happy to be back at home after becoming very ill very quickly last week whilst I was at work. Turns out it was viral Influenza A - the type that originates in the lungs and tries to kill you rather than makes you not able to get out of bed and I was put into isolation for a few days. Terrifying shit and not something I'd like to go through again. However, you don't get rid of me that easily and I've got a bit of time off now so may post more. What should I be watching on Netflix these days?

Love the Buxton podcast. The guests are always interesting and Buxton himself, as well as being funny and engaging, knows when to listen.

I presumed it was because he was still Wha(rr)m. Okay, I'm going!!

Martin! He's not even cold yet!

George Michael now - what the fuck??

I hope so, I'm knackered. Hope you've all had a lush day x

Rick Parfitt now.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-38427459

She's apparently on life support now but realistically considering the time it would have taken to get any substantial medical attention (intubation, ventilation & adrenaline) I'm not optimistic for her chances of survival

TMZ reporting in the last half hour that Carrie Fisher has had a cardiac arrest on a flight from London to LA today and CPR was administered. Awaiting further updates

How old is he DG? MF - I shouldn't have even entertained the fact that it may have been too intense for him, he LOVED it. "There are lots of battles but you don't see blood but you do see explosions with people next to them. Other than that, it's brilliant. Oh and it's a little bit talky when there could have been more action - I'd say maybe half of it is talk, talk, talk." Move over Kermode.

It probably is! He keeps putting his woolly hat over his face, walking up behind me saying "Hi, I'm Deadpool"

Well you know the kind of stuff he normally watches so it sounds like it'll be fine. I've just mentioned it to his dad so he's aware. MF - will let you know! He keeps trying to persuade me to let him watch Deadpool. He's 7 ffs!

Listened to the podcast last night. He kept making the point that it's far more intense and violent compared to the others and that he'd be extremely wary of taking "younger" (aged 7-10'ish) kids to see it. Naturally the bairn is going this afternoon with his dad so I guess we'll see..

I've been rubbish at posting recently so thanks for the votes chaps (not that you have many choices ) I still read and keep up but life gets in the way of loafing like I used to! Consider me as the disapproving mother, watching from a distance ready to smack your legs when you think you're getting away with using that word (Gemmill ) Anyway, I still post more than CT, just.

Apologies for being very late to the birthday party thread but hope you had a lovely day

Very random but if you're on Twitter and have a look at @NHS it being taken over by several healthcare professionals across the UK to highlight various aspects of the NHS and it's work. This week it's being run by my colleague Angela from our theatre department at the QE. Have a look and see what we do..

Yes, it's another cool contribution from moi.

Made from a bedpan and 2 urinals at work last year. You're welcome

Watched Miracle on 34th Street yesterday. It seems to be the first Christmas film I catch every year and despite my Grinch-like non-appreciation of the season makes a little bit of the Christmas spirit creep in.

Happy birthday chaps. Hope it's been a good day

Sorry this is late Tom. Muchos birthday happiness to you

Howay man, I can't cope with bloody penalties

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38136658 Another attack on students at a Uni campus in America. My cousin's daughter is a student at this Uni and her mam has been frantic all day as she was at lectures elsewhere and didn't know what was happening at Columbus. How many more times are we going to see this?
