happened to have a friend staying for the w/e and we went on to the fair We really enjoyed it... thank you to all who made it happen! We also went to some brilliant 'Artist Open Studio' yesterday and today... we came back foot sore and happy lovely weekend xxcc

not sure about the 'humility' thing... has a sort of Christian air to it, isn't there something about Mary Magdalene's humility when she washes Christ's feet. No... maybe I have got that totally wrong and it was Christ that did the foot washing thing... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_5hQPq_8nBw4/SINvfTbgqBI/AAAAAAAAAHs/lrWJwt1dVhg/s400/Mary+foot+washing.bmp Mind you, I am a big fan of tenderness... there's not enough of it about these day! So maybe we should add 'Ability to express tenderness' to the list and what about 'Mystery'? people talk about women and mystery a lot

Depends on what your definition of bright is, Keef. That's exactly why a did not use the word intelligent, because I meant someone with a 'brightness' of personality, with a bit of sparkle (ie not dull, stodgy, pessimistic, plodding, etc.). Anyway, I believe that there are many forms or types of intelligence, and the traditional academic model does not reflect that. I see a huge variety of types intelligence in my students, I see it in other people. IMO, conventional forms of learning do not harness or encourage expression of this variety. I have often come across children (and adults) who have been labelled a 'not bright' at school, who are the most dynamic and intelligent people... http://evilspeculator.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/dunce.gif

ref the regeneration of bellenden road.... it was the council who actively 'encouraged' dreadful planning... ie provided funding/links to hideous signage design/designers/recommending of dire plastic 'Dickensian' style facades etc... so Allfornun, beware the idea of Southwark "finding some balls", stepping in to prevent disasters or having any understanding what looks right and what doesn't! http://img1.photographersdirect.com/img/38/wm/pd2186948.jpg and LOOK at the lights!!!! think 'cross park fence aesthetic' - Goose Green remember stainless steel colour coded "welcome to..." posts which were neither use nor ornamaent (as my Yorkshire friend says i could go on but.... leave it you to think of all the other ones....

[quote=CC what do you think the real definition is? ] feisty spirited bright comfortable with who she is happy with her own sensuality funny, maybe a bit playful thoughtful a 'grown up' woman... what ever that means! well that's after a few drink and some comedy up at The Hob

life is so erratic (or should that read Southwark is so...?) there's a rash of bendy alien bo lacs ones appearing around Choumert Road area and I mean a RASH... in one patch, were there were 4 lampposts, there are now 8! Heathrow new runway here we come...

so far we have had a funny mix, but no real definition... pankhurst ann wid mrs t felicty k elsie tanner joanna lumley (purdy) bardot (some strong, some clever, some sweet 'little girlie' types) but what do men mean when they say 'real' women??? what are the qualities you look for in your 'real' woman?

ouch! or stepping on a child's hard plastic toy, like a logo block... agony, nearly prevented a friend from running the marathon, as he bruise the heel of his foot so badly

[quote=builders who will not let you know what they are doing to your house and then look at you like you're a complete fool when you ask them a question ] still finding the situation deeply irritating...

http://www.parismarais.com/4-star-hotels-paris-marais.htm the Marais is a great area to stay, if you want something fun and different(but not the cheapest) try Le Petit Molin... It's fab and worth paying a bit more for... very theatrical and very Parisian see the link below for more comments and info happy trip! xxcc http://www.urbanfleadesign.com/2008/04/interior-inspiration-hotel-du-petit.html http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KnFzPfKqS48/SBaVVBHhyRI/AAAAAAAAAkg/KLN7J4BtRIA/s400/room8.jpg

[quote=Just a thought CC did you grow up in a stately home or a castle? The reason I ask is because someone as rich as Mason would usually buy a property of that kind. ] for my sins... yes... more or less

which is worse, being sick or making love????

my parents sold our house to the drummer from Pink Floyd - think he was called Nick Manson (or something similar)

quite the reverse for me Lulu Too! this track gives me a 'heat wave' when ever I hear it... reminds me a of a fantastic night in a club with the second love of my life, he was the hottest guy... went out with him when I was at the Royal College... it was a balmy summers night, we walked back about 4.00 am we spiced up the journey home by having sex in the churchyard off Blackfrair's Road absolutely unforgettable...

I think I am love with Station Master Barry... Wouldn't the world be a better place if there were more people like him??! Which person would you like to 'have more of' and why? Famous, local, unsung hero, or even infamous.... Who has 'changed your world'?

cheeky bit of cross-fertilisation going on here red devil... I'm talking about threads of course! watch out Admin might snark us... xxcc

don't worry Kel, we won't be washing our hands between each backgammon move tonight, but we will be missing you xxcc

I read in the papers that the word Pandemic is used when a disease is speading in more than one country... pretty common really, and not something that normally sends us all into a spin.... Flu spreads all over the world every winter, and thousands die in the UK alone every year because of contracting the flu, so nothing new (except the press don't always hype it up like this to take our minds off other things.. economy, world recession etc.) I suggest you ignore the press for a while and wash you hands a bit more!!! http://paulvieira.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/4c225ec4fbab7f4cbb8409616565dc3b-orig.jpg edited cos 'excep't came out as 'expect' the first time!!!

oh yes, and I had a long conversation with Paul McCartney in a deli in North London... seems to have a Beatles theme going on

Had an affair with someone really famous (in the design world anyway) but can't say who it is... he was/is married I was young and foolish, would not do it now, so forgive me sisters!

I went to pick up friend at her dentist's surgery after having a root canal and both John Cleese and Ian Dury were in the waiting room... Cleese was very twitchy and kept crossing and un-crossing his legs whilst flapping the pages of a newspaper very loudly... Dury, as you would expect, was his charming, funny, excentric self...

There must be some confusion, I think you'll find I have the winning ticket...

[quote name=Ricky Gervais is also doing warm-ups at the moment - he's using the Bloomsbury Theatre' date=' the Shaw (I think) and also some gaff in Finchley. I've been to a couple but I've never found Ricky's work in progress that funny to be honest. ] so right, giggirl, Izzard is in totally a different league, Gervais... to much work makes a dull boy, still very Office-y, bit of a one trick pony IMO how to you get to find out about the warm up shows, are you in the business? any tips and or PM's welcome xxcc
