I normally turn off after a minute or two if I haven't laughed. Forcing yourself to watch and entire comedy half hour without laughing is a bit.. perverse.

'Brown Trout'

Jades stock-in-trade was being talked about; cheered and slagged-off in equal measure. So this is all something of a fitting epitaph.. and may even have been, as they say, what she would have wanted.

Any ghosts in there, Lou?

Yeah.. great show. It's about time he got his own prog (since the Lee & Herring thing, which i wasn't mad about) Be careful what you wish for with those healthy viewing figures though. Success on TV (leading inevitably to a sustained bout of PanelShowitis) can often spoil the fun.

Keef Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- I still won't go to the ones > that are full of them You will soon! Hard to say for sure on the names front. I'd need to know your surname - and obviously you won't want to reveal that on here. For example, if your surname is 'Price', then I'd advise against 'Slash'. Likewise, if it's a girl and your surname is 'Fore' then I'd be rethinking.

Keef told me they were undecided between Janice and Pauline for a girl. If it's a boy, Rodney - with the possibility of Zucchini as a middle name.

See you in Your New Favourite Pubs soon then, eh Keef? All the ones you hated before will magically become the ones you love. Hee Hee.

I think it's some sort of diet.

Young *Bob* receives a sound beating (with a cricket bat) a few times a week and it certainly hasn't done him any harm. It's the most natural thing in the world - especially when I'm a bit pissed, or I've had a bad day and need someone to take it out on. I'm assured that (despite being a toddler) he fully understands that it's only for his own good, that it hurts me more than it hurts him and that he is sure to grow into a well-rounded adult who will use his brain first and not his fists. If they change the law I shall move to another country where I can freely beat my children at will. Will the last person to leave England (who wants to be able to beat their children with the full sanction of the law) please switch the lights off on the way out?

Will it sell .. ghosthunting equipment, ouija boards, crystal balls and other assorted psychic paraphenalia?

DEVON! Hear that, Louisa? Is that why you want to move there? Bet the spooks in Devon are proper ghosts. Not like the overpriced, organic, middle class ghosts you get round these parts.

Ooo-ooooOOOO-ooooo oooo

HA HA HA HA Great stuff. This preposterous guff will surely come back to, er, well - you know.

I wish they'd have let me know they were coming.. I'd have had a bit of a tidy-up.

Google has WR as: "124 Lordship Ln, Camberwell, England, United Kingdom" A cruel joke, no doubt.

It is a massive yawn-fest for sure. But let Louisa have her special moment.

Fair enough, Admin. Mrs Robinson: Don't like it, some people do, don't go on there if you don't, it'sjustashopforchrissakes.. I think this covers it.
