Can’t say anymore, but it is a period piece and expected to be on TV at some point towards end of 2023 early 2024. At the age of 70 my first foray into the world of acting. I did appear in Celebrity Masterchef a few years ago was fed food cooked by Rylan Clark and Cheney Hawkes, who were very chatty off camera, unlike the 2 presenters who were extremely standoffish. How exciting! Hope you get chosen, fingers crossed 😊 Edited February 25, 2023 by P&O SUE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare P&O SUE Posted February 25, 2023 #43228 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Morning all, looking quite bright here in North Kent, John’s working today so I’m just chilling and doing chores. Yesterday was bitterly cold, even in work! It’s bad enough going up to the office for 8am without it being colder than it is at home! Later I met a fried for coffee so that was good. When John gets home we’ll pop over to my parents for a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been up since 4.30 am. Wide awake and nothing to do but get up. It could be nerves that woke me so early because I'm taking my eldest granddaughter for a driving lesson this morning. Eeeek! Have a good one. Best wishes. Jane xxx Hope the driving lesson goes well Jane, it’s a great responsibility. I actually slept right through to 5.45am this morning! We had our new mattress delivered Thursday (wow can’t believe the price of them now!) and I don’t know if it’s a coincidence but I’ve had two decent nights sleeps. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josy1953 Posted February 25, 2023 #43238 Share Posted February 25, 2023 More of the Mazda saga, I have just had a phone call from the service manager at the dealership. Apparently he has just come into work and found a message on his desk asking him to call me because I was clearly not happy with the wait to get the fault on my car looked at. He has amazingly found that they can book it in next Friday. DH has now said that we should get it fixed and then look round for a new car after we get back from holiday so that the new car is not being left with CPS. Now settling in for a quiet day at home where it is warm rather than walking around in the cold looking at cars. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the next 20 miles...turn right......turn right. She the gave up and not another word until Crewkerne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiana123 Posted February 25, 2023 #43242 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I've really enjoyed all the twists and turns and coincidences in our lives that we have heard since yesterday. Shows it's a small world. Mentioning, Cynthia Payne, as we were, she was a Speaker at a dinner meeting I attended. She was as good a speaker as she was a 'madam' Best speaker we ever had apart from the young Giles Brandreth. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for a brand new car, the order lead times are pretty awful - six months seems to be pretty normal, unless you chance upon a cancelled order. So better to order sooner rather than later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobstheboy Posted February 25, 2023 #43245 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Whilst I was waiting to join the RN in 62, I got a job as a messenger boy in the Post Office HQ in St Martin's le Grand. Tube from Loughton to St Paul's. Always got a seat going to work, usually had to stand for a few stations going home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
