Bla bla... Trouble is @L.B she's ( Ladymuck) has gone into "Tra-laa-laa" fingers in the ears, "I can't hear you" mode, thinking up infinite varieties of "ifs & buts" She'll end up having to breathe into a brown paper bag soon, poor love. Anyway, if the Odocoileus virginianus doesn't get a look-in in this story I'll be very, very disappointed. :)A.

*knock knock* "Er, david_carnell, don't go just yet" "who's there" ( D.C scratches head ) "me" "me who" "me Annette, I'm still locked in your cupboard remember " " oh yes " * unlocks door * "DON'T do it again Curtain" "no sir"

Well, come on what's happened ? ( Oooo I love a cliff hanger me,I bet the butler done it ) :)A.

Has anyone seen this movie OUTCAST By Colm McCarthy I'm not too good with horror, so I'm still in shock from Friday the 13th 3-D (6)A

Everyone like these Gypsies. ( but are they really gypsies though ? ) They're probably just your run of the mill misogynists really. :(A

Today, I'm patting my head & rubbing my tummy Actually patting my head & patting my tummy No, rubbing my head & rubbing my tummy I did cook a pheasant last night (which gave me game bird diarrhea) :)A

Given as some drivers are less than considerate to others I'd like to see this Ⓦ sign on some cars/ vans :)A.Curtain

Hmmmmm. If there's a chest of drawers in his room then split the money equally between each drawer That should reduce the risk by at least 4/5th's ( re-calculate for more drawers though ) :-SA.Curtain

Well done for passing and I think you should do what's comfortable for you. P- plate drivers DO get a *little more time from me. :)Annette ( *15 seconds-ish )

Really daizie, silly comments like yours on such a subject really could upset some. Actually I found my neighbor dead, yes dead as a doornail, her newspapers uncollected from the letterbox for days. When I looked through the back window there she was, lifeless under the sofa. (I often wonder what was she doing under that sofa ?) NO flies though (that was a bonus) :-SAnnette

I've looked at the " Swallows in love " photo story Ah....It's sad yes But do you think there's a swallow reading a love story about a dead human ? Of course not (selfish birds that they are) :'(Annette

Indicators left on but no intention of turning Far worse in my opinion Do gypsy's use indicators (when getting married) (?)Annette

Any news from Tarot on the subject ? (I fancy a laugh) Or maybe she's on the front line saving every slug & beetle in her aquarius moon guise ( or should that be Pieces moon now ) ( they are the same person, right ? ) :)Annette

I've tried measuring mine but keep gagging when the ruler touches my tonsils ( that is where we measure from right ? ) So instead & as a comparison my tongue is the same length as a saveloy ::o Annette

Shank of Venison braised slowly so it's falling of the bone, neeps & tatties of course. I love a Mc Sweens BUT it doesn't love me ( oh the heartburn, feels like "I swallied tha lump o' coal from hogmanay" ) Glenmorangie 10 year old ( Madeira casked, West coast girlie Whisky apparently ) And of course a wee poem ( McGonagall's The Tay Bridge Disaster ) Lastly, this year we've a Fiddler to play the supper in ( which is nice ) :) Annette

Me. Where's the candle ? Tarot. Yes it does, doesn't it

Is this as far as we've got " probably if they dont go along with it they would be beaten or murdered " I can hear the headline now on the BBC "Petrol up 1p a litre & another Gypsy beaten to death for not going along with it, whatever IT is ? " Don't tell me you've been reading that Greer stuff as well ? Do you honestly think there is "a world wide problem of how men totally disrespect women" No :'( A.C

siousxiesue Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > No but I would like to eliminate misogyny! I didn't see much women hating myself, in fact the men & boys positively liked the girls, maybe your mistaking misogyny with machismo ? With that in mind did you read Tobias Jones in the Observer magazine this Sunday, he talks about living in a close to nature commune & how old fashioned gender roles are subtly reasserted. He goes on to say " What suprised me is that so many people ( men & women ) seem contented, rather than frustrated, to rediscover the differences" Maybe it's got some thing to do with sitting around a campfire at night, I don't know but either way a strong sense of loyalty & community pervades, not a bad thing in my book :) Annette
