AnonyMouse_8282 Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 I am going to have to withdraw from this thread....... Unless froglet comes back and tells me how to do smilies!!!!!!!!!! Xxxx Quote
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted August 3, 2014 Author Posted August 3, 2014 Oh I've missed these silly threads! It must be summer! I'm not quite sure why you think it's silly? I'm very serious - love the GBCO plan! PVA GLUE - MISTYPE OR ipad bungle not sure!!! Thank goodness for that - was feeling very ignorant, just like when someone uses beetroot powder on Bake Off - I think what?! And then Why?! How about an outdoor challenge to make things from a woodland environment? Great idea - I've been pondering what could be the GBCO equivalent of those mini documentaries about the history of particular bakes or regional specialities. Maybe we could have ones about well-known outdoor artists? I am going to have to withdraw from this thread....... Unless froglet comes back and tells me how to do smilies!!!!!!!!!! Xxxx I'm back! But at the moment I can only remember how to ! Just type a ; and a ) together with no space! I have spent the weekend dying to tell my sister about this thread but being pretty sure she wouldn't get it! 2 Quote

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) That's good news to start the week with! Thank goodness. Yes, I read parts of the thread to Zebedee and he was a bit bemused by it all - I guess you have to be 'in the moment' to understand and appreciate the nuttiness of these threads!

AnonyMouse_9650 Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Having reflected on this I think we might be missing a trick here if our focus is only on the GBBO (hard as it is Sunnyday for you to consider anything else other than Mr H ). This is an opportunity to combine the GBBO with the Sewing Bee and This Old Vintage Thing as well as resurrecting It's A Knockout - I have horrific memories of trying to do some sort of craft activity with some small children involving dolly pegs and fabric using PVA that just wouldn't stick :huh: :huh: :huh: add this sort of activity to creating some sort of masterpiece from a bit of old cloth from a charity - sorry vintage shop and include a quick run round an obstacle course in the garden and we've got it all sewn up (excuse the pun) 3 Quote

AnonyMouse_8282 Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 ... Notice I'm expanding my smilie repertoire ?? :hun: Need to work on the 'strike through' though. Xxxx Quote
AnonyMouse_13453 Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Yes, I'm really liking these ideas! Can we sell the concept to the beeb yet? Quote
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 As if I would ever have any impure thoughts :rolleyes: Soooo Sunnyday,are you "off to the love dungeon" as Sue called it last night with PH? Some right dodgy stuff baked last night, but a good couple of candidates for winner already, if they can stand the pace. Will be watching the companion show on Friday, see if it's any good. 1 Quote

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 Hmm, sounds like a plan. Does it mean we shouldn't be slapping on sunscreen quite so promptly? 1 Quote

Mr H also used words like 'structure' so maybe they're just warming up? 2 Quote
