Sorry Cooperlola but you've missed 'Y' out.

"I am going to concentrate on what's important in life. I'm going to strive to be a kind and generous and loving person. I'm going to keep death right here beside me, so that anytime I even think about getting angry at you or someone else, I'll see death and I'll remember." Diane Frolov.

Not sure about other regions but in Vienne (86) check your fragile plants as there is a frost forcast for Friday 8th (-1) and Saturday 9th (-4).

Yuk !!!, said the rabbit and the sausage.........................................I'd rather kiss the bloke with the bucket on his head..............

Nice thought but highly unlikely. Smallpox was eradicated and yet they still keep samples in Porton Down and it would probably be the same with maleria. The government say that it's in case of a further outbreak but you have to wonder why it's being kept in a Chemical Weapons Establishment. Rant over, Now think of something that is really selfish........................[:D][:D]

Oh dear, this seems to be getting a bit out of hand, thought Betty and the worst problem lingering in the back of her mind still bugged her. Where is everyone going to sleep ? She only had the really comfortable big double bed and a small single 'clic-clac'. What am I going to do, without upsetting someone. Dick was fairly plastered, but still sore from the 35% burns he received to his head, Chris was fairy sober but she thought she had noticed a bit of a glint in his good eye....................................

(All input to date) Betty began to wonder as to why she had chosen to buy a cottage in such a remote part of France. Miles from anywhere and her nearest neighbour had gone away for a month to visit relatives in Malta. It was pitch black outside and the wind was whistling through the trees. She suddenly felt very lonely and longed for some company. A dim light appeared outside her window and there was a knock on the door   .......................... It was her very good friend Dick Smith dressed as Santa and a little worse for wear after a couple of bottles of Pride which he had not had for a few months because he was trying to kick the habit. "Merry Christmas", warbled Dick, "I thought you cu' prob'ly do wirra bit a company, being as how it's cold an' aal that, like.  Do yer know there's a mistake in the spellin' of yer house name sign?" "i'm lookin'fer Miki.........'es my best mate, 'e is, an'i luv 'im" said Dick, as Betty ushered him inside, fearing that even in the remote hinterlands of la France profonde, someone may be watching. It was clear he was very drunk, from the uncharacteristically bad grammar he was using. Betty took a step back in horror. She'd seen plenty of drunks in her time, but never before had she witnessed  something like this................... "Ha yer gorra bucket?"  slurred Dick. Before Betty could respond, she witnessed what appeared to be a rather unnatural movement in the lower reaches of Dick's santa outfit. She quickly averted her gaze, but too late, for Dick plunged his hand beneath the costume, rooted around, and produced a kitten.....and another...and another.... Betty ran into the kitchen and came back with a bucket.  "Here" she said, "Put the kittens in here". Dick pulled the bucket over his head and sat down heavily on top of the dog in the corner of the salon.  Something continued to stir in his trousers.  The kittens began to climb up the tree by the fireplace. At that moment there came another knock on the door and the sound of a beautiful fairy-like voice singing. "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen ...." Oh Dick, it's sounds like Carol singers, do take that bucket off your head and let them in. I'll put some mince pies in the oven to warm............... Dick staggered towards the door.  Unfortunately he had forgotten to remove the bucket and, not seeing one of the kittens by the hearth, stepped on the poor creature and slipped headfirst into the fire. It was a big fairy woodcutter who was singing beautiful carols outside.  When he heard the screams he smashed the door with his axe. who was singing carols at the door.  Hearing Dick's screams he hacked down the door with his chainsaw and burst in on the scene.

For this to work it's important not to veer from the thread. Short is good............................... To begin.

A little tip if you're using IE7, turn off the anti-phishing on all the sites that you use regularly. It will then speed up your access times.

[quote user="LyndaandRichard"]  This would also mean that mods do not spend their time stifling banter between members which is a key element in creating a friendly environment.

[quote user="sweet 17"] ok, i've had it with the music buffs.  how about me now calling all art aficionados.  what about the highbrow person who is aware that a canaletto is not some kind of pasta? and how about starting a thread called Highbrows vs Lowbrows?
