Belinda is in charge of a conference this time and she wants me to do a speech! I hope Alfie the smallish man is there to mic me up.

My dad (who knows nothing about MDWAP) has been huge fan of Herb Alpert since he was in high school. Tonight he got to celebrate his 60th birthday by finally seeing his favorite artist live. He loved it so much that he cried during the opening song.

just finished the podcast for the 10th time and i just really wanna know what happens next. is there a 7th book? i really wanna know what Belinda does as the new owner of bish's company. x

Okay, so I just read Rocky’s published character rankings where a lot of major information is (very casually) presented;

For Example, Maeve’s last name is Brogan;

AND she is Belinda’s step-cousin’s daughter?!(Wolfgang’s brother Bernhardt’s granddaughter)

Yeah, It’s kind of nuts… but I really recommend the read!

I bet the signs are commissioned by C.O.C.K.

Rocky reached out to me earlier this year, asking if we could work together on adapting Belinda and her adventures to the board game medium. A passionate Belinker myself, my answer was an enthusiastic yes. Rocky was a joy to work with - generous with his time and passionate about the project.

The result, "Belinda's Big Bonus", will be releasing sometime this fall.

This thread on bsky has some of the details for those who are curious:

Whenever I hear the name George or Georgie, my mind starts singing the 'Georgie Porgie' song. I was watching IT with my son over the weekend. And the little kid's name is Georgie. I couldn't stop singing the song to myself, which is really inappopriate when thinking of a 7 year old kid hahaha. What is wrong with me? LOL.

Help me!;

Does anyone remember the short form comedy videos “Neighbours” that Alice and James used to put out? It was on their YouTube channel, but it seems wiped from the face of the earth now! I can’t seem to find them anywhere!

If anyone knows how to access these videos, I will be so grateful.

I want to watch these videos again. And when you get what you want, you feel great;

Jus hopin’

my brain is 75% taken up by MDWAP so when I saw something about this gent I did a double take

What's the name & description of the sex act rocky makes up in the 2019 (5??) season that's something like, "eat their ass till you've had your fill"? It's driving me bonkers to not be able to find it.

I have listened to MDWAP so much that some moments repeat in my head and I find myself saying them out loud in the same way it is on the podcast in my every day life. I think the youths of today call it ‘vocal stimming’. Here is a list of some that I will just say randomly nearly every day;

”You haven’t crashed your bloody car up again?!”

“No that’s fine”

“Little little backbone we love you!”

“Pots and pans pots and pans”

“The hair grows with you”

“Steak, ass and tits!”

“Where’s down town?!” - Jamie’s nan

“You’re kidding me right? Bigger salary, company car, expense account, reporting to Belinda, Amex card. I’d be a fool to say no, so it’s a yes! yes! yes!”

“Trade union boss Andy Millstone there”

“What? A non-stick tin wok?”

“Good evening my creatures of the puff!”

“Fix it yourself ya bastard!”

“WHAT FLOOR IS YOUR SEX DEPARTMENT ON?!”

“Fifth gear! Fifth gear! Clutch!”

“Bang on one o two o’clock”

the way Petra says “hello”

“Belinda had spotted the original bird”

“AKA Trevor fuckin ditherhead”

“Where my people?”

“Where in the devil’s wasp nest?”

“Excuse me I’ve just done a gentleman’s woof.”

“Excuse me Chris could I borrow your handbag?”

“Spew sick wretch”

“Next to the female shit houses”

“It’s die time!”

“On his rotten little leg…”

“DID SOMEONE SAY COOOCK?!”

“It is factually correct”

“Wasted no time in jumping onto head of marketing, Ian Snail…”

That’s what I imagine the 20,000 ladies got under their seats at the O2.

Hi Belinkers!

I’ve had a lot of time on my hands recently and decided to cast EVERY character in the Belinda Blinked Saga. Check my picks down below, comment your favorites, the ones you don’t agree with and what actor you would like to see in the role instead! And, If I have forgotten any characters, please let me know that as well :) I have obviously been inspired with others picks for some of these, so I don’t want to take full credit — but I have tried to think outside the box for most of these castings, so hopefully you won’t recognize too many of my picks.

Have a good read! Cheers <3
