    Is that Dick in the middle?[:D]

    This IS the lighter side and I HAVE inserted a smiley.[:)]

    I have come across a couple of words in french that I need translating:-

    chaussette & marionnette  -  anyone?[Www]

  2. Thank you everyone who responded to this thread.  Cast iron baths are such heavy things which is why I chose the lighter side for this thread.  This is what you do when you want a giggle or just to chat.  I have been sticking to that suggestion lately,  but some of you seem to be carrying on willy nilly as before[blink] Good to see you're all on form[;-)]

    SORRY SORRY SORRY SORRY!!!! I seem to have got ALL confused AGAIN.

    Dick said "cast irony bath"  I went on to say something like "she should be SATired in a cast irony bath" cos I think Dick likes talking about things like that.  Then Dick said Julie choked and I thought he was laughing at my weak little pun.  Then I made a little reply to Dick AND Miki and now I am sorry I opened my BIG mouth!

     

    And another thing, it wasnt even me who started all this.

    See sweetie - it's NOT always about YOU![8-|]

  4. Hi all,

    My friend has just bought a house in France, and has decided on en suite jack & jill bathrooms for all the bedrooms.  He's looking for some of those old fashioned  cast iron baths.  Any idea where he can find some (about 3) in good condition?[Www]

    I also hate to complain but, I also prefer all of the old (or were they new) smilies and sorry to those who faught for the new ones (or were they the old ones).  Anyway, I like the ones that moved.

     

    Also, I have sent PMs to people and found from the reciprient column that they have gone elsewhere.  OMG someone out there knows all my business!

     

    Can't be bothered to put smilies in 'cos they all look the same to me.

    ME TOO! ME TOO! I hate complaining[:-))]

    Dorothy ........

    Don't say "Twinkle" - to say the least, I'm not her favourite person!

    However, that aside, your piece would go down a storm in any of the local markets. What amazes me is the amount of 'retro' stuff there is around that fetches, or rather commands, astronomical prices. Everyone's taste is everyone's taste, but things from the 50's & 60's that are clearly now very collectable ......... well.  Saw a set of glasses there which my Mum & Dad had in that era - rather unsubtle + non-politically correct patterns on them: €60-ish for the set of 6.

    Now I know (as if I didn't know already) what those guys are doing when they're furtling around at our local Dechetterie for the stuff you and I dump.

    Hang on to your unit: someone from Antiques Roadshow will tell you that it's worth £5k in 2036.

    What on earth gave you that idea Ian?  My feathers are so used to being ruffled (ask ANYONE on this forum!) I look like this

    are you trying to get my attention or something? 

     

     

  7. My hubby was playing a concert for Stade de Toulouse last week and he had lunch next to the model who 'stars' in the Alice adverts. Don't ask me what she was doing there.  Anyway, much to my delight - he tells me she looks about 14 (probably 'cos' she is!) and is so skinny she has no 'derriere'!

      Am I off thread? Please let me know - I get so carried away sometimes.[8-)]

  8. Hi,

    It's been a nightmare trying to get wanadoo installed.  We had no choice this is the only user available for broadband in the hamlet where we live.  To find out if you have broadband or what users are available in your village you should call the local 'mairie'.  If broadband isn't available (like here when we first moved here) you can get a petition going, I think you need 25 people to sign and then you take it to your mairie.  It takes a while but you'll get there.  If you have a choice I suggest you definately avoid wanadoo!

    We were on the phone to their helpline for two days, everytime one of the assistants started giving us the direction we needed, we'd get cut off.  You then have to call back and wait a minimum of 10 mins.  At one point, I calmly asked one of them to be careful not to disconnect us again and she said "Hold on, I'm just going to connect you to another department",  a lady answered and when I explained what was going on she told me that I'd been put through to an old peoples residence![:-))]

    Anyway, to cut a very long story short, and to avoid the 150 euros call out charge wanadoo demand to come round and install their livebox system,  we called a good friend who is extremely computer savvy and he came over and saved our lives and a lot of money!

      Be very careful with the helplines, I'm sure they give great advice most of the time, but we were told so many different things by different people, one of them being that we needed to change our telephone line as it was not compatible etc.. there was no need for any of that.  Good luck Ali - don't worry 'bout losing  touch with the forum - you can always break into a neighbours house to use their computer like I almost did this week[:D]

  9. [quote user="Bassman"][quote user="KatieKopyKat"]

    .  Also she said she has pm'd Bassman and was anxious to know whether he knew the 'man' so whats the answer Bassman?    

    [/quote]

     

    Hmmmmm not recieved a PM [8-)] But I think I know who she means , I met him a few times when we rehearsed in his parents house but he was a bit errr "up himself" at the time having just got a deal LOL, my mate who was the bass player in that band(I played guitar in that one) was in the "man's" band a year or so later so he knew him better [;-)]

    [/quote]

    Hi Paul,

    KKK has confused things a little (bless her) i sent you a pm asking you if you knew or remember the Man band a welsh 70's band? 

  10. [quote user="Miki"]Thought so Bill, the beautiful one, well named, bravo.

    Old Twinkie looks like I am about to give her the old heave ho with a right hook up the nether region [;-)]

    You promised you wouldn't do that anymore.

  11. [quote user="KatieKopyKat"]Twinkle used to live in Spain and used to ride a big motorbike wearing a leather jacket and a pair of knickers.  She used to pull a good wheelie too until she was showing off in front of some lads at the traffic light and in all went pete tong.[/quote]

    The jacket was as long as a mini-dress.  You forget to mention my black leather cap[:$] God it sounds very s & m now but at the time it was very hip!  I did do a little wheelie as i was driving through the busy nighclub strip just to attract a tiny bit more of attention to myself!  Only thing was, I had so much Bergasol on my legs that I slipped off the seat- the bike carried on going with me hanging onto the handlebars and I got dragged along the road.  Sooo humiliating and my tan was ruined for at least a month!

  12. [quote user="Miki"][quote user="Scarlett"]

    I had some blue ones with red stars and red buttons on the fly.  I paid £2.50 for them from Milletts after me and my mates manage to sweet-talk the salesman down from £3 a pair!!!  I don't like to think of them as cheapo though - I thought I looked the bees knees in them, especially with my wedge sandals with 3" platforms - I could teach Naomi Campbell a thing or two about how to trip down the catwalk[:P]

    The sad thing is, I thought I was GROSSLY overweight having to buy a size 12 when my mates were all buying 10's (I don't think size 8 had even been invented then!) and now I would just die to be able to get into a size 16!!!  (Perhaps I could get into Miki's harem instead [:-))])

    Twinkie deals with the applications..............

    Miki?  We're gonna need a bigger tent!

    What misery?

    If you think Cruyff is spelt 'Croyf, and that the only thing to be said about Glenn Hoddle is about his appearance rather than his skill as a footballer, I can't help you. 

    No one can...but as long as you're happy[:D]

    Aneeeeeway. What about Becks?. Now that is serious.

    There you go darling
