Moos

*people who get all snippy about grammar FEWER, not LESS.

*hic* I don't know what you mean, Tillie.

Sadly our love (well, mine anyway, I fear my adoration may be unrequited) must remain pure and virtual, as there is a Mr. Moos in real life who would probably not approve of my squeezing Kentish pears with other men.

Ooh, Santa Baby, slip a present under the tree for me!

Hi Zorro Welcome to the ED Forum and good luck in your search. I'm curious to know what made you think to post this job opening here?

Tell you what, nail varnish does have a rather intoxicating smell, but that's as close as I came yesterday to mind-altering substances. What can I say, LuvPeckham, Honaloochie and I were alone on the Forum last night... the stars were shining frostily ... that kind of thing goes to a girl's head.

LuvP, I was led astray by the influence of my powerful crush on the divine HonaloochieB, I apologise for any lowering of the tone. Please continue to flirt elegantly with the dainty Crispy and don't take it against her that she offered you Special Brew, I believe she was trying Only to Connect. It's too late to call for Mummy now, be a man and whisk her off to the independent grocery shop where you can finger seasonal local apples together.

It's not cheating, it's tactics!

Oh Hona, don't hide your light under a bushel, you're just not sidekick material. You're a glowing, golden Star!

Vinegar. Remember making conkers tougher as a kid by soaking them in vinegar? Bruce Forsyth is a sixer.

I can see how that would put some people off but I like it. Brendan, have you honestly ever been anywhere that made you feel that way? I can't say I have.

Perhaps MacRoban meant Freedom Fries

I dunno, but I've got 10 million of the buggers in my camera apparently.

Then I shall stick to agreeing that you are indeed a sexy old devil and slink off this thread...

There were goblins in the movies, so I thought I must have just missed them in the books. Nice flushing-out of Mockers there though! Heh heh heh. Back to the ads. I think most people know the Canaries are not very vegetative and so on, but I just don't understand why they couldn't have found a shot with a bit of sea in it, or something. The photo doesn't even look sunny! There's a TV ad as well, which looks slightly more appealing. It's like taking a photo of yourself at 5 in the morning with no makeup on and horribly hungover in your oldest pyjamas, and posting it on your SoulMates profile. Ain't going to help pull in the punters.

Oh sorry, did I mean TerryThomas, professional ladycharmer, cad and bounder?

I always thought you were, Jah.

Has anyone seen the poster ad for the Canary Islands, the kicker being 'you'll wish time stood still' or something? There's one at Denmark Hill station for example. They really make me laugh, the picture they've chosen looks pretty much like Mordor. Bleak brown crags surround unpleasant lunar landscape. On closer inspection, the lunar landscape turns out to be a beach. No sea can be detected, certainly no vegetation. They might as well have gone for "Be the only living thing for miles - other than the orcs and goblins!" Anyway. Thought I'd share.

Ted to the max! Loving you and blinder* today. *even though he is a fecking cyclist ;-)

no, I think it's still there, MP.

Blinder, "misrepresentation of an opponent's position"? you cheeky minx. I did exactly what you did, just looked for the opposite picture. I do think your Google post was funny, and a good idea. However, you could easily find similar results for 'people who hate East Dulwich' or 'people who hate buses'. I know there are people who are hostile to cyclists but you'll have to come up with better evidence than a quick Google that it's people in general. But it really was funny.

Isn't that a bit of a silly argument?

You make a lovely and angelic statue, MickeyP.

I know, I know. :-$
