  1. That is hysterical. Now they may genuinely not realise they are camp, but you're not a millions miles from GUERNEVILLE which is a male homosexual town hubbie and I found ourselves wandering through on our road trip. It was obvious what it was from the get go - find a man who did not have a maustache and he was lost. Hubbie had the beard and tash combo so was fine. Anyway, we stayed a great riverside B&B and everyone - from the Harley riding doctor coming out of the sex shop to get on his bike, and stopping to offer free advice to a passing guy who looked a bit down and out - to all the men serving in Safeway's, were absolutely the nicest happiest relaxed men I have found in one town. I was the only female! We went to the bar in the evening and they were interested in us and our journey. Why not. Anyway we learned that this town was founded when San Francisco got a bit too much for some of the community and some headed out to the wine regions and the sequoia regions, and hence Guerneville. I hope you are having a great time anyway - they still love our accents so enjoy your time! And love that pink!
  2. Preferred the old name because it is still possibly relevant. Not had the pleasure of meeting you, but getting an idea about you from the threads and comments you write. Hate to be pedantic but "legal" is the correct spelling, and apologies if the mistake was a deliberate attempt to make you sound.... chavvish still? ;) Congratulations anyway.
  3. ... looks up "excressence"... 12 still goes to Oxford Circus but often terminates there. Get a 36 from Peckham though and you should be alright, giggirl.

    BBC news

    I absolutely hate the way George Alligiah (I have absolutely no idea how to spell his name and can not be arsed to look it up) smiles, and smiles a welcoming smile and smiles some more, and the way the presenter will say what the news is about then introduce the reporter on the scene who then says exactly the same thing, repeats it using different words, and then hands us back to George in the studio, who will thank the reporter, and repeat what has just been said, again, smiling. And the way two presenters look at each other rather than the camera. It's not yet as bad as American news channels but it sure is going that way.
  5. I reckon twenty three. WHAT DO YOU THINK.
  6. Dear God by XTC One of my favourites bands singing one of my favourite songs on the subject. And yes, that's the actor who played J R Hartley up the tree.
  7. 53!!!!!!!!!! u chekky fcku innit
  8. Really enjoying this thread. Hope that's not an insensitive thing to say. As I said earlier I am sorry that feelings are being hurt. But I am enjoying reading people's extreme or not so extreme (I think mine was extreme) reactions. Truly a forum contains all of human life where we can say things we can't always say in a pub type social situation!
  9. Exactly. And my Great Aunty would have died in a lot less time than it took her, in pain and suffering for months at the end, and stuff.
  10. As I said, blame the Advertising Standards Authority for the inclusion of the word "probably"! But for those of you who feel you have to have something to believe in - The Church Of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
  11. I saw sumeone teefing, least fink that wat it wuz. But he was teefing for my brudda who had his car nicked so he cant get ot much so not telling yu nuffink only biscits he stoal.
  12. The Advertising Standards Authority actually had them include the word "PROBABLY". I volunteer at the British Humanist Association. So to me, there is no god, and anyway, the ethos about it is "Let's concentrate on what we can do to help one another for the sake of humankind itself and NOT because of the carrot of heaven or the stick of hell".
  13. Terribly sad situation. I became friends with hubbie's ex and she helped me understand his rare low moods. It was clear their relationship was over but that they still liked one another. Many of my exes are friends, and now friends with hubbie too. When I could not go on a holiday that Hubbie and my best mate wanted to go on, I said they both had my blessing to go together. That's a bit extreme for some, but you either trust your friends, or you don't. I am so sorry this has turned into a nightmare. It tends to be us women who can be our own worst enemies. And I wish it was not so. I do hope things resolve themselves because this could mean bad vibes for the future.
  14. I need at LEAST eight hours every night. I can only exist on less if what is occurring in the day is very exciting for example a good day of my work or a day trip, but then the next night I need more! I HATE hate HATE early mornings, specially in this cold weather, and rarely get up before 9.00am even if I have gone to bed at 11! Friday I have to be at court in Kent at 9 and panicking already! Really impressed at those who say they can exist on 4 or 5. I read people need less sleep as they get older. When does that start then; I'm older than I was!
  15. Ditto, and ditto!
  16. OMG I spent most of my 20s on that balcony, hanging off it, trying to climb up to it, falling down it. The memories! Well - memories of other people obviously....
  17. Well thanks for the thanks! Suzilucy what a fab name and nice to know a fellow woman biker. Mine is a Virago. I would also recommend my hubbie David who maintains the 6 motorcycles we own between us and can fix pretty much anything on anyone's. As vouched by orweller on an earlier thread. Specialist tools may be a problem, but he'd let you know in advance if you needed to go elsewhere. Hope all your bikers who are coming home this evening enjoyed riding sensibly on the bus lanes! The road leading to the Oval is one I will enjoy riding legally down, and the Old Kent Road to Elephant! In fact, I'm just off up there now!
  18. My first suggestion would be to ask at the main desk (or google them) at Kings College Hospital. They must have lots of links.
  19. I am up for swapping the Roger Moore AutoBiography for.... the Tony Curtis latest one. Yes, PGC, with knitting pattern picture.
  20. Oi! Us hairies don't all have the confidence to go Sigourney Weaver bald, nor the looks to carry it off either!
  21. 8.05 Is that an actual TIME? ;) ;) Sorry to hear this, LadyGooner.
  22. Clockhouse. Corner of Barry Road and (overlooking the park on) Peckham Rye SE22
  23. Carrie! No! Well, I did leave it a bit long but I didn't realise my patronage was that important! Thanks for alerting me to this! OK - now where do I go.
  24. work work work - I do have compassion honest. It's why I just spent half an hour doing the motorcycle in bus lanes advice thread for the bikers amongst us! Has it stopped snowing? I really ought to get up and - make some coffee.
