I've dreamed of James for an unprecedented 2 nights in a row. Yesss! LOL! I guess my subconscious is making up for how quiet it's been as of late. I bet our boy is off filming something right now! I just wish I knew what! haha. We will be updating the site soon with GORGEOUS George and the Dragon caps donated by Kelly. Just gotta prep them and post them. Will try to have them up this weekend. Oh, and don't forget Beau Brummell on BBC America this Sunday night!!! Can't wait! :D ~Nada

Journal Entry: April 30, 2007

My sis and I have tentatively been planning a trip to the UK later this year. But, I am having serious doubts about that happening now. We have made a very practical financial decision that will likely prevent us having the money we need for the trip. So, needless to say, though I know we are doing the smart thing, I am a bit sad that we might not be able to visit the UK to celebrate my 40th birthday. And oh, it's so hard to leave when we have so many responsibilities here. I just haven't been able to bring myself to get the tickets and now I am glad I didn't buy them already since things are looking so unsure. Ah well, tis life. We were hoping maybe James would do some theater in London so we could at least try to get to meet him while we were there. I tell ya if I hear he is doing a play later this year, it will be all the more sad if we aren't able to go. :( ~Nada

Journal Entry: April 20, 2007>

We have received so many e-mails both via this site and James' Myspace page about Rome Withdrawl Syndrome. :) Yes, we FEEL your pain!! We are all missing Rome like crazy and it's that much worse knowing there will not be another season... And darn but there has been NO news about James in so long!! Ok, we know Ray is in a pilot for CBS called Babylon Fields and Polly Walker is doing the previously titled show: Los Duques for CBS as well. But what's up with James??? Stay tuned... We hope soon to have something for you. In the meantime we hope James is happy and doing FAB!!! If anyone hears anything please let us know. We're all geared up to get all giddy and excited for more Mr. P. action!!! ;)

My screen saver has a lot of caps from this last season of Rome (thanks Patri!). And every time one of them comes up on the screen I am just floored by how gorgeous James' skin is!! Nettie and I were talking about it today and the word "supple" was the best description. He just looks edible. Ok ok, we are gushing again, but he is just so stunning we have to mention it!

Journal Entry: April 11, 2007

Been rather quiet lately... Hopefully there will be some news soon. I wonder what our boy's up to now that he isn't stuck waiting for word on Manchild, I'm sure many wonderful projects are shaping up for him. We just can't wait to see what's next!! Kelly told me last week that she caught a rumor on an entertainment show about James possibly being cast as a Bond villain. Hmmmm. Now THAT would be interesting! The villain sexier than Bond himself! sweeeeet! We are certainly ready to see James on the big screen! Seeing that we never caught any of his previous theatrical releases. Bummer! Well, you know as soon as we have anything to share we'll update our news section. If any of you get wind of anything let us know and we'll be sure to credit you with the submission. :)

Journal Entry: April 5, 2007

Thanks to everyone who has sent such sweet comments for our little music videos. We thoroughly enjoy making them and sharing. We recently heard from a couple of brand spankin new James fans! YAY! We are always thrilled to bring more admirers into the fold. We have made so many wonderful new friends through James and the website. It has been a real blessing to our lives. Kudos to everyone who helps us out with news, suggestions and content for the site! You are all ab fab!!!

Journal Entry: April 3, 2007

Our newest music video is quite a tear jerker. Taking a queue from James himself in a recent article, we set Mark Antony's death scene to Trent Reznor's Hurt as performed so beautifully by Johnny Cash. We uploaded to YouTube at around 9am today, so if it's not showing yet, it will be viewable soon. Enjoy and be sure to have tissues ready....

Journal Entry: April 2, 2007

We survived our evening without Rome by having our dear friend Julia over to drool over James in Women Talking Dirty. Oh, that Daniel is such a stinker, but LORD what a hottie. :D Oh, and we created 2 brand new videos over the weekend, too! We have yet to post our Mark Antony video but will soon. But our "Sharpe's Hero" video is done and on YouTube! We made Jack a hero instead of a traitor in our little tribute. We just couldn't help ourselves. Here it is!

Journal Entry: March 26, 2007

Ohhh... that's it! It’s over and WOW I just can’t seem to get over James and his mind-blowing performance last night! I might have gotten about 3 hours of sleep. YEESH! Haha! I kept seeing his pain and anguish and his death… his body sitting there. God! It was such a shock. Nothing could have prepared me for it, even though we knew it was coming. The way it was done, so chilling! But it seemed Mark was already dead inside, just a shell of his former self, so lost and empty and hollow. No one else will ever play Mark Antony so perfectly, so entirely as James has. James truly became Mark and it made his end that much more gut wrenching.

Everyone on the show was just marvelous!! It was interesting the bits of history they changed, but for the characters as they had created them for the show, it makes sense why. Nettie and I want to watch it again at some point – after a bit of a break – to see how it strikes us second time around. But it might be some time before we can bring ourselves to endure Mark’s plight again. We are so sad it’s over! We will miss Rome terribly.

Journal Entry: March 12, 2007

Last night on Rome:I don’t think there is anything better in my world than watching Mark Antony! Better than chocolate, better than coffee, better than a big ol’ medium-rare, pan-seared steak! Last night’s episode was yet again simply marvelous! Watching Mark lose his temper… There is no one who does pissed like James, or pished for that matter. HAHA!! That opening scene with Atia. HOLY MOLY!! That man sends me I tell ya! Now all I need to know his how the hell do I clone him?!?! I want one so bad!! Ok, so I have to apologize for the direction this review has gone. Guess most of my reviews go this way, huh? Well, to sum up the show without gushing over Mr. P… Simon Woods just rocks!! Ray is beyond fantastic! Kevin rips emotions right out of you, Polly is flawless… oh I could go on and on with names and praises. Everyone is amazing and I am just sad that the end is so near. So, to return to the gushing as before… The scenes to next week’s ep have me all giddy with anticipation again!! Mark, strutting around half-nekked in Egyptian garb and body paint… I don’t know how I’ll survive it! I simply can’t wait I tell ya!! Only 2 eps left!!! NOOOOOO!!! ~Nada

Journal Entry: March 3, 2007

Sweeeet ep last night! One of my faves! Loads of our honey and boy, he had me laughing constantly! He has such impeccable timing. Oh, the way he delivered… so flawless, so satisfying!! ;) And that look on his face watching Servilia off herself, the foreshadowing… I laughed but wanted to cry knowing what’s coming. I just adore Mark sooooo much, I don’t know how I’m going to handle his death! I can’t even predict how it will strike me. But watching James in that role always has an “affect” on me, quite profound, actually. James affects me in any role, but there is something about Mark that goes a little beyond. Whenever James’ character’s die, it so hurts and I’m sure with Mark it will be as bad or worse. I don’t want to think about it. Silly woman I am. It’s just a character, always is, but I guess I really do immerse myself in it. Maybe it’s the fact that I write and create characters that makes me involve myself to such a degree. Well, at least I don’t confuse actors with the characters they play. Whenever I read or hear that people do that, it really baffles me. Anyway, James, you are a master - THE Master! ;) You thrill me to no end and though I don’t want Rome to end, I can hardly wait for the last 3 episodes!! ssiigghhh ~Nada -Oh, and dittos from Nettie. :D

Journal Entry: February 21, 2007

We're baaacckkkk! :D What a GREAT trip! So many friends we hadn't seen in years that we love so much! It was non-stop and we are exhausted, but we are seriously missing everyone again now that we can't just call them up and get together whenever we want to. Sigh...

Rome: Episode 6 - Ok , so this was a great episode, though yet again we wanted to see more Mark, darn it! Next ep looks like it may have a bit more of our darling in it. We HOPE! Only 4 eps left!!! Waaahhhhh!!! How will we handle Mark / James / Rome withdrawals?!?! :(

Journal Entry: February 12, 2007

Rome: Episode 5 - Well, seeing our gorgeous Mark with that messy, tousled hair, beard and lovely black armor last night kept me awake awhile lost in my daydreams. Hahaha! That wonderful man with his utter confidence and that oh so unique way James portrays him just keeps me in this constant state of joy as I’m watching and for days afterwards. Such a great show last night across the board!! I was also blown away by Simon Woods! He sounds remarkably like Max Pirkis in the role and is just spellbinding on screen! He has an angelic, ethereal quality that instantly makes me think of Anne Rice’s characters. A bit like Paul Bettany and Stuart Townsend. I can’t believe we’re already halfway through the last of the shows. <SOB> I could watch Rome for years to come and never get tired of it! Next week's show looks like it's going to be phenomenal!! Lots of Mark, I hope!! Though we may see it later since we'll be out of town during the first airing. Gotta be sure we get a hotel with HBO! ;) ~Nada

Hey all…Well, I think Nada said it best. Therefore I will just say dittos…~Nettie :D

Journal Entry: February 5, 2007

Rome: Episode 4 - only one itsy bitsy scene with Mark. We feel deprived! But hey, caps will be EASY, but that isn't what we want... WE WANT ALL MARK ALL THE TIME! hahaha. It was a great show, but for that lack of James. And we're skeptical as to whether he'll be in the next episode that much, too. SIGH! Nettie said it perfectly, we are "not sated." We need a REAL Mark fix! Looks like we'll have to go back and watch one of the other eps to slake our desires! Oh, but we must add, that we both had the urge to push that soldier aside and lick his wound, or well, at least clean and kiss it as we sewed him up. :P Why does that man affect us so?!?! It's like one of his interviewers said once, "James Purefoy turns perfectly nice girls into lusty wenches" hahaha! We weren't nuts about some of her comments in that article - especially the "handsomer" comment, WHATEVER! But she sure was right about the "wenches" thing and the "undone" comment, too! :P (I'm referring to the Evening Standard "The Rake's Progress" interview)

Journal Entry: February 1, 2007

Last night we were watching Blade Runner, one of our favorite movies of all time. Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer are two of our favorite actors as well. I used to have such a crush on Harrison when I was 13! He was old enough to be my dad, but hey, I’ve always gone for the manly types. J Still just adore him, too! And the part of Roy Batty is one of the very best roles Rutger Hauer has had. And he played it sooo brilliantly. Utterly mesmerizing to watch! Ok, so why are we bringing this up in our James journal. Well, because in watching these two awesome actors in that film we noticed qualities that reminded us of James. There were little nuances in both Harrison’s performance and Rutger’s that brought James to mind. Neither of them look like James, obviously, but that seething intensity in Rutger’s portrayal of Roy Batty kept on reminding us of James in his more intense roles, Mark Antony specifically. And with Harrison, it’s the expressions. He has always been so full of expression, not quite like any other actor. And though it’s not the same as the way James is, the talent, quality and uniqueness is there for James in his own way. Perhaps it’s that familiarity with them that drew us to James and has made him stand out to us in so many ways. James a culmination of all the good things we love in the field of acting, and looks and personality. He’s just, well, the only word I’ve found to describe him overall, besides the obvious ones <<ahem>> is cozy. There’s something cozy about adoring James. Hahaha Those little things he does, the way he BECOMES his characters, his subtle mannerisms, that tiny but oh so powerful glint in his eyes that bowls you over, the power in his voice, we could go on, but well, that is why we’re so proud to support him and do this site for him! And it makes us especially proud and soooo jazzed when we bring him new fans, too! Yesssss! We just love ya loads, James!! xoxo

Super busy day today! Finally I can stop for a sec and write my weekly Rome review. Episode 3 was an intense show, to say the least! I have to say it’s got me all anxious to see what happens next as things come to a head! I have such a weakness for angry Mark! GAWD! How does that man make horrid things like violence look sexy! <<ahem>> Well, and in the context of entertainment only - let me make that perfectly clear. I just felt so strongly, while watching the show, how lucky all of the actors have been to have that experience. Certainly Mark Antony, in the way his character has been approached for this particular production, is a rare kind of role and I’m just so grateful James got it!! He was definitely born for it and it hit me again how much I’ll miss him when it’s all over. <<sniff-sniff>> Oh, and I have to comment, in reference to a certain and very unique talent our boy has and uses quite often as Antony and otherwise. I’m referring to The Whammy! James is the Whammy King! Hahaha! I’ve never seen another man use that whammy look so powerfully. And James does it a LOT! It’s those certain photos or scenes that sometimes I’m just too weak to look at. I have to look away for my own sanity!!! Ahhhh, but I LOVE it! If ever I get to meet him in person, I will have to find some way to prepare myself, to be strong, in order to survive that look. Either that, or ensure I have a stretcher or someone to catch me when I pass out. Hahaha! ~Nada

Back again with my thoughts on episode 3 season2. Firstly, Mark pissin’ in the potted plant was a hoot and Cicero’s reaction was a LOL moment. He just couldn’t help but look!! Can you blame the man! HA! And the lovely butt shot was… well, lovely! :) Gee Mark, did you really have to bludgeon the poor messenger?! haha - That temper of his! My goodness! James is always perfection. I can’t wait for Octavian to start his stuff on the next show!!! ~Nettie

Journal Entry: January 22, 2007

Episode 2 of Rome was just marvelous again! Sooo nice to get to see more of Mark this season! YES!! James floored me again! I still can't get over how as soon as that camera starts rolling he wields such a power of seduction over his fellow actors, everyone on set, and of course all of us helpless viewers out here! GEEZ the camera just adores that man! I've never seen any actor do it like he does. And I can say “it” about many aspects of James’ talent and his unique ways. I simply can’t get enough. He illuminates the screen, heats it up so that you practically FEEL it warming you <ahem>. You don’t just watch James, it’s not simply enjoyment—James creates an experience unlike any other. I hope others recognize his strength, talent and power on screen. I know no other actor will ever portray Mark Antony as wonderfully as James has. And there are certain scenes out of history that were sadly skipped on the show that I would have LOVED to see James do. <sniff>
I tend to concentrate on our man, of course, but I have to comment ALL of the actors on the show! They are magnificent and so immensely talented! The sets and costumes are perfection and just the whole feeling of the show is wonderful. I am really going to miss it after this season ends. :(
Oh, and I must add, after previously stating how we weren’t too crazy about how the show chose to introduce Cleo, we enjoyed her last night. Personally, I love how tiny she is next to Mark. He is just so lovely and big and manly. <sigh> And I’d like to also say that we never meant to diss Lyndsey Marshal as an actress. It certainly came out that way and it isn’t her we weren’t pleased with. Just that the introduction was such that we didn’t feel that power you’d expect to feel with Cleopatra. Seems the writers were thinking of showing a contrast between the young Cleo and the more mature version in this season. Well, and it will be interesting to see how the relationship between she and Mark develops. Watching the Extras (thanks Lady Purefoy!!!) and seeing Mark all dolled up in Egyptian body paint/makeup, oh, what an experience that is! Hearing he will be preening and prancing around like a rock star…. I’m feeling light-headed just thinking about it! I’ll refrain from elaboration on the thoughts that come to mind after seeing those clips. <wink> And, being that we “slave” diligently over this website for Mr. Purefoy, we decided to add his sound byte here <THUD>. Yes, dahling, you are our master and we are most certainly the happiest little slave girls there could ever be! :D
Hurry up episode 3!! ~Nada

And here is Nettie's entry!

It’s that time again.. I really want to write up a thought or two on each episode of season 2 Rome… I have to say so far I like this season better than the first. I know it is mainly because there is more Mark! I have to clear up something on my last entry. I in no way want to say Mark was not in control, I just got a chuckle when he wanted to head north after Cesar’s death and build up an army and he couldn’t get anyone to agree to go with him. Well, Atia was ready to, but she would follow Mark to Hades and back. She is willing to disown Octavian to stay in his good graces. Oh, I loved it when Atia said she loved Mark and he just walked past her, not even a glance! LOL! I feel a bit sorry for her really, she is a naughty woman but Atia is really in-love with Mark. Octavian was right, and Mark should realize his time in control of everything would be short lived! Octavian is way too smart to put up with it and has every right to do what he did. I literally winced during the fight between Mark and Octavian. I didn’t want either one to get hurt. Very well done! Also, I found Cleopatra (Lyndsey Marshal) cool and collected when putting up with Mark’s sassy self. I really loved the double slap!! GOOD STUFF! What can I even say now that hasn’t been said about James! HE IS JUST SHEAR PROFECTION! <GROWL> ~Nettie

Journal Entry: January 16, 2007

Ok, ok…I’m now attempting to write my thoughts on Rome season 2 episode 1, between constant phone calls here at work! Sheesh! Unlike my sister Nada..I did sleep quite well Sunday night after viewing the show. I hoped to perhaps dream a little dream of our ‘dream’ boy, but sadly no such luck! :) James…as always was flawless and it hit me the next day upon thinking over the show how I forget I’m watching James, I am watching Mark Antony! He truly becomes his characters in all his work. Mark being one of my very favorites! I love Mark’s power struggle to retain control after the emotional blow of Caesar’s death and not receiving anything in the reading of the Will. Mark is a powerful man, but you can still feel his subtle underlying desperation to take over and his frustration over not getting the control he craves from those around him. James plays it sooo very well! I’m sure when Cleo convinces him he is the Osiris to her Isis he will eat it up! I just love the story so far and I wait impatiently for this Sunday’s show!!! Hurry up why don’t ya!! ~Nettie

Journal Entry: January 15, 2007

Episode 1 for Rome Season 2 aired last night and I’m still feelin funky from it. Haha. Oh, James was just burning, smoking, smoldering and I am still recovering from his presence, his astounding performance, that voice and that tude! I hate that he gets to me so bad. Sheesh, I am a grown woman, by the gods, and should be strong and have some level of fortitude. But alas, I am weak. I tossed and turned, dreaming only little snippets of him here and there but waking almost instantly upon seeing him. Grrrr! I felt all keyed up, all full of angst trying to sleep last night. Well, and there have been a few nights like that for me since the whole James crush began. So Mondays here at work are always nuts! Super busy and demanding, and I’m just sitting here with a mind full of fuzz trying to work and focus. Haha! Coffee ain’t even touchin’ it either! Ah well, I hope I can build up a resistance as each episode airs. Is every Monday gonna be like this until Rome is over? Oh dear! Maybe I should take up some kind of meditation after each episode. I can see it now: Clear my mind… (go James just go!!) Deep breaths… (will you stop sneakin in here!) Breathe in… (mmmm, that voice) Breathe out…. (ohhhh that smile). Ah heck, I give up! :D ~ LOL! ~Nada

Journal Entry: January 11, 2007

James had this little thing to say about his looks. Silly man. :) "'I'm not saying I'm good-looking, but I think I know now... that I probably do fit into a stereotype of what people perceive to be good-looking - and it's not particularly useful."

Not particularly useful... ok. Hmmmm. Well, I wonder would James forfeit all of his previous "handsome leading man" roles? Is he unhappy with what he's accomplished as the leading man in roles that he seems simply born to play? Mark Antony, Donald Farfray, Beau Brummell, Rawdon Crawley, etc, etc...? And we must include here that the very foundation of a person's looks comes from the inside. There are plenty of "handsome" or "beautiful" people out there who can't hold a candle to James simply for the light he radiates. The genuine, warm, open and loving energy he puts off. And hey, we have noticed and felt it and have never even met the man! So, we would say to you James, embrace the wonderful creature you are and enjoy it. Don't bemoan your looks or regret that you aren't something you were not born to be. We adore you just as you are. You bless us daily when we see you. So whether you think your good looks are useful to you or not, they certainly are useful to us. ;) You make us smile, feel giddy, feel alive and happy - you give us hope and we hope we do the same for you in some small way. :) Gee, we sure can get sweet and corny, huh? HAHAHA

Journal Entry: January 7, 2007

It's about 8:20 and we are sitting her right now watching the first 3 episodes of Rome season 1 and once again we are waiting for our darling Mark to appear. Oh, we hope this new season will bless us with more James screen time! PLEEAASSEE! Right when we get to swooning, he's gone again. Ahhhh, finally! Holy cow! He's gone again! That was literally a flash of him and GONE. Well, patience is a virtue, right? ... Humph! ;)

Journal Entry: December 29, 2006

This photo just cracks us up!

How adorable is our boy in that outfit! This must have been during a time in James’ life when he wasn’t in a relationship. HAHA! But both Nettie and I agree that if either of us were his girl and he stepped out of his bedroom door wearing that for our casual night out on the town, we’d grin with adoration right before leaping on him. Let’s just say we would end up arriving late for whatever plans we had. Nudge. Nudge. Say no more…. LOL!

Journal Entry: December 11, 2006

Oh my good LORD! ok ok ok... attempting to control the trembling all over our bodies right now. Yes yes, we got our oh so lovely, oh so sweet reply from James.

And dearest James, we already decided we would not post your letter here. Like you, we feel it is a private and personal thing and we can't put into words how grateful we are for your kindness, your generosity and sweetness of expression. You keep us always in a continual state of giddiness! You make our lives brighter, fuller, happier! Thank YOU for inspiring us and filling us with hope and pure joy. Oh, well, no pun intended there, really. :) We sincerely mean pure joy! You are a rare treasure in this world and we are proud to help promote your career in any way we can. To know that you've visited the site(s) and that you like what we've done is beyond wonderful for us! Our flirting hasn't been in vain. LOL

Also, we are VERY excited about Manchild! We will have to subscribe to Showtime and we hope it gets picked up so that we can get our dose of you every week, and of course for your ongoing success and exposure. Viva James!!

Thank you again, James, from the bottom of our hearts. Maybe, just maybe we can come meet you in London someday (soon). It would be an honor to bask in your glory. ;)

Oh yes, and thank you for the looovely photos - talk about generous! Your reply was the ULTIMATE prezzie! You've totally made our Christmas!

Love, hugs, kisses and all other forms of deep affection,

Nada & Nettie xoxoxo....

ps: Gee, can we be any more gushy!? LOL

Click here to see the photos James signed to us. ::sighhhhhh::

And as an aside I would like to make an offer:

My darling James,

If ever you think you may need a personal assistant I must say that I would be perfect for the job. All I would need would be food to eat and a place to sleep. I would do it for free, my only requirements being a little snog on the cheek or on the forehead right before you look down at me with those incredible brown eyes of yours and say, “Nada, will you do this for me? Will you do that for me?” And I’d gaze up into your lovely face with big, wet, doe-like eyes and say, “Uh huh… Anything you want James. Anything you need!” And off I’d go on knees like jelly, my heart fluttering wildly, leaving cleanliness and organization in my wake. I would pay all of your bills, making sure they were kept current while you were away and I can even balance your checkbook for you. I manage the office here at work, and I’m very good at keeping those books balanced to the penny.

I promise, you would never want for anything and no worries would ever enter your mind. Everything would be taken care of lovingly, considerately and thoroughly. I would never intrude on your life in any way that I was not invited to. I would eagerly accept this position as your personal assistant, leaving all I know and love here in the US behind. I would be the happiest, most content and hard working little assistant you could ever imagine having. :D

Yours with love and enthusiasm, Nada xo <<wink>>

James, The letter below is a special request thank you from Heather. :)

James,

Thank you so much for your letter and the autographed picture. The holidays are always stressful for me. Even more so when you throw about three 20-30 page papers, various projects involving computer software that I've never used before, dealing with a publisher that is having their own monetary issues, and preparing for a loved one to go through a complicated and risky surgery.

I have to say I was so happy to get a response, I started crying. Then, I ran like an idiot through the house, giggling like an inane teenager.

Thank you so much for the stress relief and the chance to be joyful. It's such an easy thing for me to become Scrooge during the holidays.

Have a wonderful and safe holiday season.

Brightest of Blessings and much love,

Heather Poinsett-Dunbar

Journal Entry December 8, 2006:

We're baaack! And we have great news from one of our dear friends, Claudia, who got her reply from James!! She's on cloud nine as you can imagine! Here is the photo he signed for her. Yummers! It says in Italian, "with love and kisses." THUD! Now, Nettie and I are hoping, crossing our fingers and toes, that our letter will arrive soon! Pleeaasseeee!!!And when we do eventually get it, we will be floating I tell ya... total space-cases! In permanent swoon-mode! LOL :P

Journal Entry November 30, 2006:

Headed out of town tomorrow to see family, so updates to the site will be put off until after the 8th of Dec. Sorry for getting behind, we certainly want to be as up to date on James and his projects as we can. :)

Good news is we're hearing about new converts to Mr. P's "fanclub." Yeah, and that's no surprise with that power our boy wields on screen and in photos, and in person - according to Lady Purefoy and other's accounts. Nettie and I are looking forward to the day when we can experience his lovely presence, too.

Anyway, we're just itchin' for the new season of Rome and all of James' new stuff coming out! More, more, more pleeaassee! We just can't get enough!!

Journal Entry November 22, 2006:

We would like to introduce a new little bit of spice we're adding to our James Journal. Our darling friend, Lady Purefoy is just brimming with the most wonderful personality and talent for expressing her feelings (and ours) about Mr. P., and we would like to include some of her thoughts here. We email and chat often, and she always brightens my day! Oh, and lucky gal actually got to meet James!!! So she has a certain perspective of the man that all of us lovers of the man want someday to have, too!

Lady PuHave-Your-Cake-Pt1-Galleryrefoy says: "Does [James] even know how much joy he has brought into our lives? He has brought us together. And here we are now, reduced to mush and loving every minute of it." -yes... oh yes!!!

Lady Purefoy says (in reference to our recently added Boon caps): "Gawd, he looks so young and adorable and juicylicious to the max! his skin, i can go on and on about his skin. i can write a book about his skin. and then omg, the pic with the chest peeking out. girl, I really don't think it's a good idea to be e-mailing you about james when i'm at work, huh? i can so get fired! and i know i shouldn't click on the the galleries cause that's just asking for trouble but you made me do it. it's like the age-old defense, satan made me do it. nada made me do it. will this stand in a court of law? so anyway, you said you uploaded the boon pics and off i went and i swear, i was red for like five minutes. had to go to the bathroom and hide and wait for my passion to subside. rhyme!" - LOL, and imagine how I felt, prepping those caps... staring at that man's loveliness... oooing and aaahing as Nettie and I chose each lovely shot... I'm still coming down off that high! ;)

Lady Purefoy says (and this is a challenge for all of his fans): "Ok, think of activities that you would like to do with james, but, a big BUT, it has to be far removed from sex. totally unrelated to sex. i want to know if you can think of activities that will start clean and remain clean. i bet you can't do it.say for example, dancing. The music plays, he approaches you, then he takes your hand, and now it's dirty dancing.another example, cooking. picture him slicing some vegetables. watch his hands. are you still thinking about food?
Driving. you and him in his citroen. need i say more?pure clean fun with purefoy, not happening. you cannot do it. and it's not to objectify him, i just don't think it's possible to have a platonic relationship with him. we will always "go there". do you think he has women friends who never thought of going to bed with him? liars, the lot of them!in bed with james. and with that thought, i will say goodnight." - Impossible! Can't do it! Just can't!!! LOL!

Journal Entry November 21, 2006:

Our boy is such a busy bee! We wonder if he'll take some time off. We hope to get even a tiny little reply to our letter at some point... before he gets too well-known... too busy to answer his letters anymore. Manchild is sure to catapult him here in the US, more so probably than Rome did, if it gets picked up, which of course we're rooting for. The affect James has on his fans is monumental and if he gathers more and more like the ones he has now, he'll become literally impossible to reach. But overall, success and constant work is what we want for him! He deserves all the attention, recognition and success possible with his immense talent! It's baffling sometimes to see who gets noticed in the performing arts and who doesn't. At times it seems just backwards! We want James to reach the level of our other two favorites, Ewan McGregor and Hugh Jackman! And we see it happening, and heck, it could happen very fast indeed...

Journal Entry November 16, 2006:

Nettie and I were talking and we have to say, on a more positive note about Manchild, that we're glad it's a comedy. Not that the dialogue I've read sounded very funny, but to see James in a comedy sounds great! We are hoping it's better than it seems at first glance. And of course, we support James in all of his work and choices. We're thrilled that he'll be doing something that will bring more attention to him over here in the US! YAY!

We've read several places where James likes to refer to himself as an "old geezer." LOL! Well, James, you are NOT an old geezer in our eyes, and even if you were, we'd still love you to pieces, honey! Heck, we're close to your age ourselves... and we're looking forward to enjoying you for the rest of our lives. We LOVE what a little age has done for you! Of course, you were just adorable when you were a bit younger - such a peach with those full red lips and utterly pinchable cheeks! ::sigh:: But now??? GRROOWWLL! LOL! ;)

**funny how we keep countering all of James' little self-deprecating statements** :D

Journal Entry November 14, 2006:

We have been having a ball with our new friends we've found through our crush on James. Patri, in Spain, who donates stuff to the site, trades James stuff with us and has become a great friend! Kelly who is a darling. We chat about all sorts of things and trade for James stuff, too. Lady Purefoy, who is just a hoot and who has had the rare and wonderful experience of actually meeting the man!! What a lucky gal! :D Oh, and our pals through James MySpace page: Claudia, Kelly, and a whole slew of others there!

We want to thank you, James, for bringing us together! You have a growing collection of ladies out here who just adore you! Through our site and talking you up, we've even converted a few new fans who are keeping an eye on your career now. YAY! From all of us we send you a BIG group hug and a shower of loving kisses! xoxo

Journal Entry November 9, 2006:

Ok, we have just learned about James in "Manchild" for Showtime and we have mixed feelings about this. Firstly, it's good to have a series for James so that he can schedule himself for his son and have regular work. We are all for that so that our boy can be happy. But, this is yet another character not unlike Hal, or Daniel, or Tom in Natural Justice - even Mark Antony is this kind of guy. Yes, James is charming, handsome, and well perfect for these kinds of roles, but we are concerned about typecasting. Even though he has played many wonderful roles outside of this kind of character, it just seems to be the most common theme in his character choices.

I would love to see him in a role like Indiana Jones. Main character, big personality, some action, good script and endearing character. Man, now that would be amazing, and better than 007 in my opinion. I knowit's hard when what you're offered is what it is - but I do hope James isn't thinking he's older and past the point. Yikes!! He's so not past the point, he's in his prime and one of the most underrated actors out there. One of the best in the biz, and it's a travesty he's not morerecognized as a major talent. Well, it may be a blessing for him, too, not to be a big famous guy over here. It can be torture being HUGE in the US. And most of all, we just want him to be happy and know he's loved by his loyal fans!

Journal Entry November 7, 2006:

We watched Metropolis over the weekend and how tragic when Nathan jumped! :( Seeing any of James characters die (or get hurt) is just dreadfully hard to handle for us, silly as that is. Of course, we won't accept that he died. Rather we prefer to think that the nasty blow to his head from the fall completely cured him! ;)

Journal Entry November 2, 2006:

Well, my first attempt at making a little video movie of James is almost complete. I've posted it on the site as is, but I plan on tweaking a few things tonight and replacing the one that's posted. You can view it here. I took the clips of James from the beginning of Jilting Joe where he's dancing around in his New Romantic outfit looking darling, and put them to the song One Small Day by Ultravox - one of our favorite bands from the 80.s. It's amazing how certain parts of his clips go with the lyrics so well. :D It isn't that we don't like the ABC song, but we just wanted to make it unique. What a cutie he is! I could never leave that man at the alter, I tell ya that!

My next video project will probably be Beau Brummell clips set to The Dandy Warhol's The Dope (Wonderful You). Can't resist due to the whole "dandy" thing. ;)

Journal Entry October 26, 2006:

We recently watched Jilting Joe and Beau Brummel, finally. Well both Nettie and I agree that the character of Olivia in Jilting Joe really droveus nuts! We were begging Joe not to turn around at then and, "Oh please just keep on walking, hon"... but alas, it had a "happy" ending. James was of course wonderful, adorable, endearing, but overall I wasn't crazy about that film. I MUCH preferred Women Talking Dirtyeven though Daniel was a bit of a stinker. I could watch him ALL daylong! Mmmm hmmmm...

Beau Brummel was a little different than I'd imagined it would be. Actually, it felt a bit rushed to both of us. I wish they'd given it two nights and built the characters up a bit more - and so that we could see that much more of James looking scrumptious! ;) The directing was interesting - reminded us a bit of a music video at times. No complaints about that, it wasn't bad at all. It was a James-fest, which is always wonderful! Only drawback with watching our boy in the evening, right before bed, is it tends to keep me up at night. LOL! ~Nada

Journal Entry October 10, 2006:

Oh, I had the wildest dream last night that James was an angel. Funny after all the joking that he's the devil. ;) So, I just couldn't resist creating this angelic James image. And you can see my devilish James art by clicking here. ~Nada

Journal Entry October 9, 2006:

Our wonderful new friend, Patri is now our partner in helping build our web site. We have added a few things today, but will have more soon.We are really grateful to her because she has gone out of her way tohelp us get things we didn't have. She ROCKS!

Over the weekend we watched Women Talking Dirty - and oh boy... Even though his character was a real stinker, he had us just swooning in that one! Then we watched some of Coasting and what a doll. So young and sweet. Cute show. It was hard to turn it off. :) WTD inspired some brief dreams for both Nettie and I. James has a way of sticking with you, like a very satisfying meal or a song that moves you deeper than others. Hegets "in there" and it sure is nice to have him there I tell ya!

Journal Entry October 6, 2006:

I had 2 very nice dreams with James last night. ;) Nettie had a wacky dream with him, too. So it was a bit of a James night for us. Yippee!

Be sure to go visit our friend Claudia's PollyWalker site! It's gorgeous!

Journal Entry October 5, 2006:

We just have to comment on one of James' interviews where he says, in terms of his fame as an actor here in the US, that he's "plankton." James, you are NOT plankton!! You have a steadily growing number of fans here who love you and heck, Nettie and I love you enough to cover the entire country!! ;)

Oh, and we've decided our lovely boy has an oral fixation, which is quite nice with that... mmmmm... yummy mouth of his. Ok, ok, so some of these images are from film roles that called for it, but if he doesn't have and oral fixation, we certainly have one for him. ;)

The only negative bit are the cigarettes. Ok, yes he looks sexy smoking (God I hate saying that), but we'd much prefer he didn't. His poor lungs...

And what's he up to right now? Does anyone know? We heard he was in Blood Diamond, then we heard he wasn't. We just want to be up to date on his latest projects. If anyone hears any news, please email us!

Recently we watched The Wedding Tackle (Yuck, though of course James was flawless as ever - both in his talent and his looks). We also saw The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and there just wasn't enough of him in there. Man, he was beautiful, though. Easy to do screencaps at least (coming soon). :) Maybe Baby was cute, and geez was James good in that. He's born to seduce, without even trying. We read his publicist won't let him be interviewed by women anymore because he's so charming. No surprise there. He can just stand there doing nothing and I'd be all giddy... We're quite addicted to his unique and very expressive ways. Oh yes, and we saw the Sherlock Holmes episode, which was one of his first things. Awww, what a darling he was. So young, with those full red lips and big, brown innocent-looking eyes. Made me want to rob the cradle. ;)

Journal Entry September 22, 2006:

Lately, Nettie and I have been worrying about James' smoking. He's probably been at it for lots of years now, and we just pray he'll be okay. We've had several friends who smoke and we completely understand how hard it is to quit. We'll keep him in our prayers. It's impossible to imagine how devastated we'd be if he got sick. ::shudder::

On a positive note, we're soooo excited about James' new movies coming out this year. Goose on the Loose and Blood Diamond. We just wish his part was bigger in the latter. As far as we know it's a small part. We heard he was playing a lawyer in something, I wonder if BD is that project? Can't wait to see him on the big screen again! YEAH!

Journal Entry September 15, 2006:

Had a very brief little dream about our boy last night. Ah, but it was nice. Pretty vivid, for being so short and sweet. I just wish I'd beem more lucid so I could have controlled what happened better. :) We've added a load of stuff to the site today. Video clips, a flash movie of James on the home page and a few other tidbits. Enjoy!. ~Nada

Journal Entry September 12, 2006:

I wrote a short fantic inspired by James as Mark Antony and here is a poem from that story. If anyone is interested in reading my fic, just drop me a line. I don't plan to post any of my fanfic here on the site. Also, if you'dlike to see more of my poetry, click here.

Antony & Adara
by Khanada– Sept, 2006

A torrential rushing flood inflames me
to abandon reason and succumb to him
The gods, they taunt me
for protection or relief I plead
but instead raging lust I receive
escape him I must, for him I do not trust
still the fire rages, still my body it defeats me
and I succumb to his charms
lose myself in his arms
fatal, this seed of love betrays
his touch, his voice, his kiss in my heart stays
for I have been left to grieve
from my love, unrequited I leave

Journal Entry September 7, 2006:

Well, we mailed our letter off to James yesterday. I decided at the last minute to do a quick drawing of James on the envelope. I wish it had turnedout a little better, but it's okay. If he gets it, I hope he likes it. At least it was a nice thought. :) We'll see if we get a response...

Journal Entry September 4, 2006:

We spent our entire 3-day weekend hard at work on our novels, and yes, they are inspired by Mr. Purefoy. We feel quite accomplished and excited about our progress. We're considering putting fanfic up here on the site. We each have several fanfic we've been working on and they're turning out quite good. No masterpieces, but certainly fun. We also wrote James a letter that we'll be mailing soon. Hopefully he'll getit and we'll get a reply like several other lucky ladies we've heardof. :)

Journal Entry August 23, 2006:

Ooh, I got to kiss James in my dream last night. Very, very nice indeed! :D
We watched a few episodes of Rome last evening and James performancewas just spellbinding (as usual). He is so full of expression, more so than most other actors! When he’s being cunning or sassy ordevious, we just can’t look away. It’s like eating the very best chocolate!
Both Nettie and I are very disappointed with Cleopatra, though. She is portrayed wish no class, no power about her at all, and she comesover like a bratty teenager. ::sigh:: We were really looking forward to the whole Marc Antony - Cleopatra thing, but now we aren’t so thrilled. Maybe it’s the way she was introduced - first impressions and all, but we just feel let down.
We were also really disappointed with how they treated Egypt on the show. The Egyptians looked like a bunch of freaks! And what was the deal with Alexandria? Not such an amazing looking city to me. Sad, when they do so well on so much of the show otherwise. Maybe it was budget, but still they could have done better with the makeup, the costumes and the sets in Egypt. Oh well, I'm really only watching for Mr. Purefoy anyway. Not enough of him - we find we're waiting and waiting sometimes for them to get back to Marc Antony. :) ~Nada

Journal Entry August 21, 2006:

Okay, so I was reading through a couple of interviews/articles on James over the weekend and saw that our boy is sick of the sex symbol thing. Well, I just have to say to you, James, NONE of your fans doubt your incredible abilities as an actor. You blow us away constantly. We don’t see you as just beautiful to watch simply due to your looks alone, we thrill in your transformations, your emotions - your sheer presence - as you literally become each of your characters before our eyes. But, know also that you have a smoldering sex appeal that just can’t be missed! There are lots of sexy actors out there, all handsome and charismatic, but you have something – something that sets you apart –creating your own little place in our hearts.
One of the things about you that grabbed Nettie and I first thing were your eyes. So much feeling, so much going on in there… Your eyes are so intense sometimes that we just have to look away. ;) Your eyes are both spellbinding in your performances as well as always making us weak in the knees. No matter how much you might like to keep the sex symbol and accomplished actor separated, they go hand-in-hand and your fans just love the whole package. xo
