  1. I think Elsie understand Queens English just fine[:)]
  2. You are certainly invited to dinner but you will probably be dining alone I'm afraid.
  3. My hubby knows and he understands - sort of.  He realises that the forum keeps me occupied when he's not around and knows most of you lot now. Don't think I'll mention the rubbing of the lamp though[:-))]
  4. [quote user="hastobe"]Up and down?  And is fast better or should I do it reeeaaal slow....? [;-)] Hastobe [/quote] I wouldn't know[:$]
  5. [quote user="Dick Smith"]I know I'll get stick about this, but I agree about the Welsh. About a year ago my wife and I went into the restaurant on the Mont St Michel. The waiter sat us down next to a table of four people who were speaking English. As soon as Julie and I spoke English the people on the next table switched to Welsh. Now either they were discussing state secrets or that was an incredibly crass and rude thing to do, and calculated to insult. And so it so often goes... [/quote] I am the only Welsh girl in the village! I have been for the last 17 years and the ongoing joke with people new to the village is "Go and ask Nicky where in England she's from"  They know that I am proud of my "roots" and that NOBODY should call me an 'Anglaise'.   There are many English people living here and also visiting during the Summer, and they are noticible by the distance they put between themselves and the locals.  However the Welsh embrace the village life and are warm and friendly.   I apologise for the idiots you and Julie dined next to.   I'm sure there are some very nice English people living in France but they are a rarity in these parts.
  6. Well, I'm off to work now but you're going to have to rub harder if you want this to happen! Come on ladies of the harem!!
  7. Dick? The sun is shining - but it's raining in my heart[:(] SORRY.... Il fait soleil - mais il pleut dans mon coeur[:(]
  8. Ali? It's blooming gorgeous here to-day!
  9. [quote user="Will "] Ooh err missus - I'll certainly give it a bit of a polish [:D] I'm certainly missing his repartee. It's not the same with Dick on his own. [/quote] This must be how Ronnie Corbett feels[:(] And Ernie Wise[:-))]!
  10. Anyone like to 'rub the lamp' to get our Genie back on the forum?Leave your thoughts here!
  11. [quote user="Ian Horn"] If someone can tell me why you would need a satnav to find your way home, or to your friend's house (who was with you in the car), then I'll stand corrected. Otherwise, it sounds completely 'barking' to me. Just proves my point. The 'Mail' (I only buy it for my wife) has apparently asked for more silly satnav stories. There'll be an American looking for the Channel Tunnel terminal in the middle of Folkestone / London / Birmingham + someone from Kent wondering why he wasn't in the States when he's in Co. Durham + someone driving the wrong way down the M40 or some other motorway (I've witnessed that once - really scary). I'll duck now, awaiting the brickbats from the US and Kent!   [/quote] KKK was driving me to our home town and she wanted to avoid the main route due to the hour of my arrival (rush hour) so she asked the satnav for an alternative "shortcut".  Freakiest ride of my life[:-))] Now - if someone can tell me what -  "I only buy it for my wife" is meant to imply -  I shall also 'stand corrected'[;-)]
  12. How 'bout a bottle of  Cotes du Moan?
  13. [quote user="KatieKopyKat"] Got get im widow Twinkie. I've got the big man and his missus in da house at the moment.  Giving it some welly as usual.  She's in a quandri (sp). KILL THE MONSTER [/quote] Do you mean QUILL the mANster?  
  14. A magnum of Veuve Twinkle Champagne please.
  15. [quote user="KatieKopyKat"]Twinks, do you think they put the lid on our  master and screwed it down?[/quote] Actually, it's a photo of Harry Houdini - so I'm feeling quite optomistic
  16. I was picked up from Bristol airport not long ago and the driver (KKK) had one of those annoying things in her car.  I was trying to recount my flight and lengthy wait in the airport bar (hic!) and this rude woman kept interrupting me.  Well that's what it felt like to me anyway.  By the end of the journey home I was screaming "Shut the **** up will you woman!!!"  I know[:$]  -   you can't take me anywhere!
  17. Any offers?   Big boots (and silk bloomers) to fill[:(]
  18. I've got 10 mins before my therapy session - d'you want some more smilies?
  19. I've got great smilies on wanadoo!       Just thought I'd let you know what I do when I'm  not on the forum or on the phone to KKK or when I've run out of the red water!
  20. [quote user="KatieKopyKat"]I have heard about Blade.  Informayshun please.[/quote] Sorry to interrupt this thread but could you answer your phone please KKK?
