You got me, I've got to stop dropping Microdots for breakfast.

In my slimmer days I got compared to Tony Curtis but recently I was likened to Norm from Cheers. (6) As for you Esme, well I thought I'd taken a wrong turn and rocked up at Floella Benjamins office ;-)

Blimey, I know they said that the price of food was going to increase but thats just not on...I thought they'd stopped making Starbars way back in the 80s? I dont think theres an embargo on pushchairs though.

Maybe its a test, we could all be being filmed for Sky Threes Extreme Shopping!

I know, I know its an old topic and yes its another whinge but for the love of God when are they going to sort this place out. I've found myself breaking out in hives at the prospect of having to enter the minimart equivalent of Hades and have taken to avoiding it completely and cycling down to Tescos instead(or Little Siberia as its been christened Chez Moi). Nice refit and all that but its every man/woman for him/herself when it comes to negotiating the teetering pallets of stock and and squeezing down aisles that seem to have been designed with Victoria Beckhams scrawny caboose in mind. I think they should level the entire arcade of shops and build a Supermarket Shed in it space...unfortunately it might mean tarmaccing the Rye to provide parking but I think you'll all agree thats a price worth paying for hassle free shopping. ;-)

I lived in Portugal for a few years during my adolescence in a tiny little village called Estiramantens on the Algarve(not far from Faro). The folks in this village were split along political lines, half in support of Salazar and the others...erm, not in support of Salazar. It was a tense and arid little set-up. I do remember there was a Donkey called Chico and that the beer was only about 25p a bottle. Ah, magic times and halcyon daze. B)

Frankly as an actor I think he lacked sensitivity, however as a purveyor of calorie-heavy salad dressings he was in a league of his own. ;-)

Why the fucking censorship? flipping baskets!

Thats what happens when you have Taliban counsellors...maybe they're updating it with some Banksy street art.

Tsk! that was The Atlantans...see, the Greeks got there first again.

I dont think the Romans had that many original ideas, they nicked most of them from The Greeks...even their Gods were rehashed versions of The Helenic Deities. Although of course they did invent Roman Catholocism...

The Norse God Thor eh? I'm a sillybilly arent I...next you'll be telling me that April isnt in fact named after the Bumper Apricot harvest that was said to abound around this time time of year.

Tell me about it Mr Palelaloalaldkjanakjjsdjkfh...Apparently Thurdays named after the comic book character Thor! Where will all this madness end?

I use a small rocket pack, it gets me in and out in a couple of minutes tops like some kind of airborne Ninja.

Thanks. I think most of the calendar is Roman, Janus-January(2 faced oddball), February?, Mars-March(God of War), April?, Maia-May(Goddes of Growth appropriately enough), Juno-June(Queen of the Gods), July(Et tu Brute), August(Augustus). I find it odd that the pious God Fearing country that we became should continue to adopt the Julian calendar given its reliance on heathen Gods and power mad emperors. Still, I can sleep safe now in the knowledge that I havent been celebrating my birthday months early for the last 30 years...its a load off let me tell you. :))

Somewhat amazingly it only occured to me yesterday that the last 4 months of the year(9th, 10th, 11th & 12th)are actually prefixed with Latin numericals indicating that they are in fact the 7th, 8th, 9th & 10th months of the year(Sept-ember, Octo-ber, Nov-ember and Dec-ember. Hasnt anyone noticed? What kind of crazed calendar have we been using all this time...or is there as I suspect a perfectly rational explanation? Someone enlighten me as I am now on the brink of emotional and physical collpase as a result of this quandry and I pity the fool who has to clean up that particular mess :-S

I cycle regularly and always stop at the lights and it pisses me off royally when I see these cretins not adhering to the rules of the road, it simply adds to the negative stereotype of cyclists that many motorists now have. Grrrr.........

...a wine bar? Pah! Surely an Indian Restaurant wouldnt have gone amiss.

Sounds like a bit of a swine...are you sure he wasnt South African? ;-)

Tsk..I know what you mean Clinker, I saw a rough looking sort handling his plums in full view of all and a mature woman of about 50 was openly weighing her melons. The mind boggles. ;-)

No, but I have had a nest of Railians set up on the back stoop. Pests.

Is that right? Back to Firefox for me then. Google are rapidly becoming a nasty little enterprise...guess thats unqualified success for you. :)

It took me a while to suss out that sex was their game when I had a (flock, herd, clutch or murder?) of the randy buggers getting it on at every given opportunity a few months back. It must be the highlight of their miserable existence. Its certainly the highlight of mine. ;-)

I swim there almost daily and pay 17 quid a month...I think thats a bargain. I for one am glad that they keep on pushing back the date for refurbishment. I'll be lost once they close the place down.

I saw a Fox in The Bishop the other day. I also saw a couple of Babes and even a stunner. :))
