I have tickets to see the very same in the flesh in American Buffalo at the Aldwych nexy year. Maybe the excitement will kick in closer to the time. Currently working my way through CSI - obsessed is the epithet I would apply. Love it. How are you getting through grim January?***
It is a very naughty play and uses a lot of big sweary words, so no Chicken Grandma you can't come, deffo not your cup of tea.
***I recommend living in pyjamas and a fleecy dressing gown, saves a lot of hassle, lol.

I wonder why everyone thinks I am so easily shocked??
I'm usually the one who has to explain the dirty jokes to all the others.

Must admit that I've never heard of Damien Lewis. I am sorry if my education is sadly lacking.
The only time I put my pj's on is bed time and I get dressed within about 20 minutes or so of getting up. I don't like nighties though.

Now you know CG - now that I've been here longer than 5 minutes, and know you a tiddly bit better, I believe that, totally. Which is why I put it in
Should have said -later in the year. Gina - I am like Old Granny - after a certain hour the fleecy blanket comes out as well. Youth is so wasted on the young.
My Mr Wonderful is behaving like a 3 year old who just lost his toys so going to bed to read in peace.
Ed - have you read the Wolf Hall novels? Left me stone cold, left her a Dame. I love reading about the Tudors, but not hers, sorry.

Chris, you've never heard of Homeland? Dammit why did they have to go and hang him in the end?
Or Band of Brothers, by Speilberg? He's fabby honest.
Re - the pyjama siutuation - I want to come back like you - not a day in my life have I ever got up and thought - whoopee, time to put clothes on. I did though, otherwise my bosses would have been a bit ticked off. Not a morning person. No no.
08-01-2015 8:18 PM
Never heard of him
Love his sense of humour ....... he's hosted HIGNFY a few times.
08-01-2015 8:25 PM
Must admit that he does look a bit of a hunk. I've heard of Homeland and Spielberg Carol.

Sorry Chris, I wasn't being rude
Ed - the books won all sorts of awards and - being my thing I allowed my wee Dad to buy them new (I have a policy of buying the 1p books on Big River) for my birthday and was beyond upset when I just could not get into them, not least because he had spent all that money. They went to the charity shop.
Thanks Angela, I had forgotten about HIGNFY - I love when he does the 'mockney' accent thing. He does have a lovely sense of humour. Funnily enough I was watching an ancient episode of either Lewis or Morse and he was one of the students. Looked about 12, lol.

Hearts & Bones was the first TV prog I remember seeing him in. Hugo Spear was also in it. About a group of friends living in London.
08-01-2015 9:24 PM
Ooh don't know that Angela - what year/s woulkd that have been I suppose I could Google.
08-01-2015 9:36 PM
First series was in 2000, it was a BBC series.

Hope you enjoy the play Rainy.
I have been in to the office on a number of occasions in my nightie, bath robe, and fluffy mules - only after normal working hours or at weekends though.
Why waste time and energy getting dressed (very difficult, very tiring, very painful) when no-one is going to see me. I did once, for a very brief period, take my bed in to work.
I never bother getting dressed just to go to hospital, nightie and bath robe is fine, with a fleece on top if it is really cold. Why waste energy getting dressed, I could use that energy to do something nice.
There was one occasion when I was chairing a meeting at the City Council. I was a hospital in-patient at the time,but the doctors agreed that I could go to the meeting. For a whole variety of reasons I was later leaving the hospital than I would have hoped.
It was a choice between getting there in time for the meeting, dressed in nightie and bath robe, or arriving late wearing more convential attire. I chose to arrive in time.

Another one here in the "who dat?" camp, but then I don't have a telly. Mind, I wouldn't push him out the Mouse House.
I'm surviving January in onesies. Today I went to see my old boss, yes in my "cat" onesie, with white ankle socks and - er - kitten-heel shoes. Sadly I forgot about the 17-yr-old placement trainee, who nevertheless took it in his stride. He's a good kid; didn't even laugh at my tail. Boss is used to me in odd wear. We're in the creative industy, so fluorescent pyjama bottoms have been worn before, and the ladies of the local Hospital League of Friends said I was "brave".

Mmmm - only ever been as far as the washing line without getting dressed.
When I had sciatica it was too painful to get dressed so I lived in nightie and fluffy dressing gown. Amazing how cold you get when you can't move around much.
09-01-2015 11:26 AM
I NEVER leave the bedroom without getting dressed. I think even if the house was on fire I'd get dressed first!!
