Nawww!! *Cringe!*, but still... nawww!

That seems to be my sleeping pattern at the moment. Getting out of bed late and not feeling tired when I finally get back into it in the early hours. It's a really difficult pattern to break.

^ Dot brings out the best in any character (especially Dennis, nawww). EE has dried up a little, IMO. I had high hopes when the Mitchell bruvs returned, but I haven't seen anything of their usual standards yet.

As if our Jessie would ever do any of that...

Bless. Just remember the interesting conversation it has given us all, so many times in the past.

You behave just fine, Sweetie. It's them who need a kick up the backside.

Nothing could spoil Ivan/Paul for me... Unless of course said actor was my brother... or boyfriend, for that matter.

^ You've got to keep them sweet.

LOL! Spoils the dream?

The Parent Trap. (Latest version). It was on the TV a couple of days ago.

You know that feeling you have when you're a kid, and you're away from your parents. I get that alot. I don't know why. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think I know what you mean. Do you see any of your parents? I don't get that because I still live with my dad and stepmum. Hmm.. is it wrong to consider my stepmum as my parent? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not in my opinion. By all accounts, your step-mum is a very good mother to you.

Me too. I went to bed at approx 2.30 new years morning and fully intended to drift straight off to sleep. Unfortunately, I happened to spot the Emmerdale omnibus on ITV 2 and just thought... what the hell! I didn't get to sleep until 5.30 and wasn't woken by the drums until gone midday, which is late for me.

I think that that is how "weird" works; it is an explicable feeling that cannot be classified as either good or bad.

Aren't we all a cheery bunch?

I think that I could sleep through an explosion! Once I'm asleep, I stay that way. (Except for this morning when my cousins woke me up, bashing my drum kit)!

I have intrusive thoughts (which is part of my panic disorder) and they can be quite distressing. That is why I tend to sleep with the television on; it helps me "escape" from my head!

Sometimes I find being completely alone a very positive experience which gives me the oppertunity to reflect on things and make sense of my own mind and life. Of course, it can often be - as you say - damaging to my mental health, as I am alone with my own thoughts and they can often be very... scary! I understand you completely.

I'm feeling weird. Every time I listen to Goodye My Lover by James Blunt, I'm filled with an inexplicable sadness, but I also feel strangely complete and very moved. It is a "weird" feeling.

It was just so tender and beautiful. That has to be one of the most real and believable screen kisses ever made. ETA: Thanks for the cap. *Treasured*. Here are a couple more:

Is anybody else loving Paul/Ivan? Their new year's kiss was the single most tender TV moment I have ever witnessed. :)

So, you've finally been in the secret forum? Was it all you dream it would be and more?

Go you, Si! Kick 'em into shape for me!

Oooh, look what I just heard! My granda has been given an MBE for over 60 years loyal service to the Lifeboat Association!

Damn, I don't know!

Damn I missed it !! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ditto. I was preoccuied with preventing an 8 year old from destroying my drum kit. I doubt my hearing with ever be the same again.
