Snorky, I hear the OU do a good one: http://www3.open.ac.uk/courses/bin/p12.dll?C01A215 Sorry if I have approached this from an unwelcome non-satirical angle.

Maybe people could put some more background stuff in their posts. Along the lines of saw....Sean Connery in .... Dr.Boos....he was giving out their refund policy on shower gel... That sort of thing. Ps - I did see someone famous today, but it was v boring

Oh no - I am going to have to start combing my hair on a daily basis. (Maybe I will start getting stuff delivered).

I can safely say I have never ever ever wanted to go to Glastonbury. Hey! Don't assume I'm not a groover.

Nice one admin - I am not taking the p!ss when I say how much I laugh when you spice up your lounging remarks. Keep them rolling!

I had a BBC curry last night and enjoyed it v much - it is pricier than other places, however I have found that with takeaways I have had from other places, the curry seems to sit v heavily on your stomach for a couple of hours after you've eaten it. My top tip though for saving a bit of dosh - don't bother ordering rice - just cook your own.

Four? For a Catholic that's small potatoes!

Hi Chop Suey - thought it might be you.

Actually, he only became a catholic after stepping down as PM. Now I know it was common knowledge that he was fully intent on going RC, and allegedly did not do so at the time for political expediency (fear of p!ssing off the N.Ireland Unionist community). It just seems rather odd - either you BELIEVE as a Catholic or you don't - it's pretty fundamental really.

Although it isn't that clear from the post - I think PGC is quoting a Telegraph interview with the dreaded J. Nesbitt.

Are you sure it's a dog? It looks more like a) a seal or b) Lambchops (of Shari Lewis fame) http://justintime4laughs.com/images/shari2.jpg

Oh and this as well He made some biscuits as well, but we've troughed the lot, I'm afraid.

Some of Mr Wee Quinnie's work from this week. (He's a handy bloke to have around)

One wierd thing I do as a result of being on the forum, is I have started quoting the wisdom of other forumites. Eg . I've started saying "I don't want to zig before I zag" And also, sad to say... "OMG!!"

People - it was so so lovely to meet you all last night. I'd have liked to have headed down to the Drum - but I just couldnt handle more drink. It was so strange actually going to Forum drinks after 9 months of being on here - just from the point of view that you recognise people, and think you "know" them from the character of their posts. Anyway - you're all adorable!

I have just seen Lorraine Chase in the Village!
