  1. Well the "Pocket Oxford Dictionary: Do you know your King's English" puts it at i (with a reversed circumflex on top) pronounced as in 'bit'. The past is a foreign country, and I am from there.
  2. D'accord.
  3. Are you dissing Les Briley? Sainted person, no?
  4. Jacks09, it should be pronounced 'diss' as in "dis[respect] me and I'll shiv you." 'sect' as in "Christadelphians are a dubious sect".
  5. I know I've referred to it before. I know it's petty. BUT, it's pissing me off so it deserves a whole thread of its own. Yesterday on "NCIS" (Ducky you should know better). Tonight on "Monroe". Too many times in recent months, so now I shall log the mismentions (new word: I like it) on here. Together we can change the world.
  6. Haven't heard it yet, but every time I see this thread title, I think of Chicken Licken.
  7. The van is actually quite cool, unlike their muzak.
  8. I seem to have killed this thread with ill-placed humour. Back on topic: for younger girls, good role models are Sophie (Dick King-Smith) and the Princess books (Babette Cole).
  9. Isn't anyone else tempted to drive up L.Lane just for the fun of going the wrong way round a roundabout?
  10. Noone's mentioned Hank and Apache yet!
  11. I lived outside of Annan for a while. Divided loyalties on this one.
  12. Don't think you can beat Anne in The Famous Five. She makes her brothers' beds like all real girls should.
  13. I think you mean Peter Green, Mr Ben.

  15. Just to put some perspective on the title, it was posted originally in the ED section following a post titled "agressive dog owner in PRP". Perhaps a misguided attempt at humour.
  16. I adore "Inspector Montalbano" and can thoroughly recommend it. Have wine, olives and espresso to hand when watching. A guilty pleasure is "Alphas", the second series has just started on TV.
  17. *falls in love with maxxi*
  18. Those who can't spell.
  19. I have a cunning plan, Hirt can go in my place. Thanks for your responses everyone.
  20. Thanks SarahG. Trouble is I threw up when I had my ears pierced.
  21. Is the Rathbone Club still going? Used to love that place: seedy, lock-ins and great blues and jazz gigs.
  22. I was supposed to have a blood test today, the sort you stick a plastic thing on your finger and press a tab (very Star Trek). Despite having the loveliest nurse in the universe (Gardens Surgery since you ask) who complete understood my fears, I couldn't go through with it. Does it hurt? Is it bearable? Please don't reply if you are rugged, brave and heroic. I want to hear from the wimps and cowards.
  23. My dad had botox in his rectum for a bowel complaint. Makes you think twice about sticking it in your face!
  24. My daughter is August born and went to a different primary school in her reception year. She experienced quite bad bullying when she joined her new school in year 1 as friendships/alliances had already been formed. My advice is not to keep her out for the year if you are going to stay in the same area.
