  1. [quote user="chocccie"] Can I just use wood undercoat and gloss?  Or would that be a mistake? [/quote] Yes, I think it would be. I know it's frustrating but it's nearly dark now anyway. Get some wood primer tomorrow, and paint in daylight.[:)]
  2. [quote user="LEO"]Those biker's will drink anything![/quote] [:D] Bikers, do any of you know where is Bugbear has got to? He hasn't posted for ages.
  3. [quote user="Just Katie"]Please stop.[/quote] So Jon can carry on regardless and everyone else adjusts their behaviour?  It's been quite light hearted but these accusations of bullying are too much.
  4. [quote user="majlen"]Don't kick me off...  I promise not to be naughty again.  [/quote] Just Katie claimed to be a Romanian Trampoline Artist (with a funny accent) when she first joined.  I like to bring that up fairly regularly, so thanks for providing the opportunity.[:)]
  5. [quote user="jon"]Seems that you get dissapointed  when I say that things are going well in France. Sorry if that is moaning.You are a funny bunch!!!   [/quote] Jon you must have mis-read Jacquis post. It is your repeated description of other forum members as 'negative' etc., which is particularly grating.
  6. That Mrs Gupta again. I can't help but feel she knows exactly which buttons to press where you're concerned, Mr Nix. On the off chance that she isn't fibbing, why not introduce the Goat Thieves of Kildare to the French expression 'Chacun a son Goat', rather than bothering the Pope with what is surely an ecumenical matter, anyway.[:)]
  7. [quote user="Will"]Yes, I have become fluffy.[/quote] Who would have guessed it, and you with such a tough guy avatar too?[;-)]
  8. [quote user="Panda"]The jury is still out on that one![:)][/quote] He seems like fun to me. I have an impression that people are misunderstanding each other at the moment. Sorry that's nothing to do with the thread but more about forum dynamics.
  9. [quote user="Panda"]...Can't be more than one wrong un in that family can there??  Only joking woolyone![/quote] Are you saying Artsole is a wrong 'un? [6][;-)]
  10. [quote user="artsole"]and 5 element, you don,t know who you are talking to either................ so whats the point in saying that[6][/quote] Are you WoollyBananasOtherBrother? [:)] Sorry that's an 'in' joke and you won't understand it, but it's meant in a friendly way! Will can tell you.[:D]
  11. [quote user="TWINKLE"]Oh!  Is this a gardening thread?[8-)] Sorry[:$]  [/quote] You were talking about gardening for much of the time though, before moving on to extermination of Knotweed, which is commendable.[:D] Tegwini I'm not sure who you were asking but I'm in Charente Maritime and my Passionflower only stopped flowering about 4 weeks ago. There were plenty of fruits too.
  12. [quote user="mooky"]My passion flower has had flowers in abundance for the last two years. Looks awful now, should I prune a little bit or what. Also.Clematis. How do you pronounce it correctly? Is it Clem a tis   or cle mate is[/quote] Hi Mooky. I lopped mine (4 years old) back by two thirds about a week ago, and it's already started sprouting again. Mine's on a south facing wall though. I don't know whether I'd have been so daring otherwise but it was a terrible mess (like yours, I suspect) and something had to be done. The pronunciation of Clematis is your first suggested option - Clem-a-tis with no particular emphasis on any of the syllables. Having skipped through the thread I hope Katie and or/ Twinks haven't killed any innocent climbers overnight. [:D]
  13. [quote user="TWINKLE"]Thanks Tres!  I  really appreciate it - really[:)[/quote] No probs Twinkoletto. [:-))] (Katie will kill me though).
  14. [quote user="TWINKLE"]Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who remembered my birthday last year[:)][/quote] Who can fail to note (albeit with horror) such outrageous self-promotion.[:D] Twinks, remind me to forget your birthday this year.[;-)]
  15. Very clever post Mr Riff.[:D] [quote user="The Riff-Raff Element"]...Give the poor old Archbish a break. After all, freedom of speech and opinion is what we're all supposed to be about, isn't it? [/quote] I wouldn't dream of denying the Bish his say, but I don't think he'd be in favour of according me the same privilege.  What Deimos said made a whole lot of sense to me.
  16. [quote user="5-element"]...But I agree that the same laws and rules should apply to all. [/quote] The Archbishop of Canterbury disagrees.[8-)]  I really do find this odd, or even unbelievable. http://www.guardian.co.uk/religion/Story/0,,2254075,00.html
  17. [quote user="majlen"]...Arrrfff... arrffff...  Gupawww, Gupaawww... you crazy Britz you![/quote] We may well be crazy but we don't 'gupaww gupaww'. We guffaw, or say fnarr fnarr...[:D]
  18. Find your original one. It was the best!
  19. [quote user="Just Katie"]Can I have a makeover?[/quote] It's your day Katie. You can have anything you want. Ooops no it isn't. That was yesterday.[:P]
  20. [quote user="Just Katie"]I beg your pardon? [blink][/quote] Being your boss must hold its stresses and strains. Not the physical type though...[6]
  21. [quote user="Rose"]...I was just getting to like Rose... it was growing on me... [Www][/quote] And the rest of us have only recently recovered from the 12 pages it took for you to decide on 'Rose'.[:D][:P] Just hang on to it. Make it your own.
  22. [quote user="Just Katie"]... Anyway, I am one happy bunny now. [:)][/quote] That's good to hear. How's your boss holding up though?[;-)]
  23. I sent Kitty some hair dye, and concealer cream for incipient varicose veins. Not one word of thanks did I get.[6]
  24. [quote user="TWINKLE"]It was Roses title - but you're not far off Tresc![/quote] Sorry Twinks. I must need glasses, as Rose looks nothing like you![:D]
  25. I've just corrected the typo in your title, Twinks. Happy Birthday Katie.[kiss][:D]
