Declan, can't let you get away with that. Sorry to divert the thread for a mo. I presume you are referring to Christianity (that ol' book, etc). Salvation is not dependent upon doing good or bad but upon grace - ie, Christ died for us and took the punishment we deserve. You don't have to do anything except believe. Of course, one hopes that accepting this, one will want to then do what pleases God and turn away from sin, but no works of man is gonna get you to heaven (at least according to that book!) As you were.

Caprice? You're not going to start flouncing again, are you?

Do it afterwards and they can have beer jelly - that will keep the nippers quiet.

I certainly think Hugenot's been unfair to lizards.

Shame on you Hugenot. You bear a name that screams out for the rights of religious freedom and belief. If you don't believe in God - fine. No need to take the piss out of those that do. [i'd fold my arms, but I have tennis elbow.]

I will try - cheers.

Don't forget Alan Rickman playing a moody cello in Truly Madly Deeply too. V. sexy instrument.

Threshers.

My window was smashed a fortnight ago (just round the corner from Nutbrook). Policeman reckoned it was because I left the stem of my satnav thingy [that I reluctantly accepted from my brother and now wish I'd resisted] on the windscreen. Real pain in the arse - nothing to nick and half the time I leave it unlocked. Now I have the headache of trying to replace it - no breakers yards in SE London have one.

Very cool. May I be in it?

Annaj, I was referring to myself only. (Trying not to be smug about passing first time!) Bad luck Mockney. It doesn't mean you can't drive, just that you haven't got the knack of tests yet.

Not a sport I ever got into really, but have fun!

Golly, that explains a lot. A communist fighting to break out of a fascist exterior.

Look after the boy - I need him for the upcoming tests.

Better late than never. Far more rude not to acknowledge them than be late.

Oh Sue, that's a line to match Rupert Brooke!

Ian Hunter - ooh you little tease HB!

Hope it's bagpipes with neighbours like that.

A genuine policeman will wait outside the door while you check with the local police station (or their home station).

Some of us don't have digital cameras (or if we do, have no idea how to use them).

Rent Roman Holiday and Three Coins in a Fountain - I'll bring the pop corn.

Aw - do you leave your clogs out?

The geezer in Zenoria Street, last time I shopped there which was a while ago, was just that - one geezer. Not a competitive market or what I call a market.

Don't be mean - it's just their corsets are too tight.

Happy Birthday dear forumites.
