I can't understand why you're getting such comments. Every time I see Benn I think of you.<br /><br />Blog fasting was good. <br /><br />Apricotfox - hi, hope the turf laying went well. My small patch of weeds/lawn was bramble infested and I got a man in.. who charged me £20 to spend 20 minutes mowing it. Money for old rope but I needed it done NOW so he cashed in. The sofas are in and I hurt from toe to eyebrow. Hope you get chance to enjoy your lawn in some lovely sunshine. I'll be over later to do the quiz (I'm saving it for a quiet moment).

The whole point of Reggie ...Bingo, I cannot agree.<br /><br />The whole point of Reggie was that he was a subversive who was forced by convention and the mores of his time to live a life unsuited.<br /><br />Clunes is a likeable oaf, but his Reggie is clearly too everyman. The 'boss' is so inferior to CJ, it is a wonder they cast the character.<br /><br />I bet you a good lunch that this will not be recommissioned for a second series.idlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09938525768274527540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35649541.post-73907778222297283922009-04-25T13:22:00.000+01:002009-04-25T13:22:00.000+01:00I watched that Perrin program last night.

Beck speaks about why the Alamo is sacred to Americans and what it means for their Constitution and democracy. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjcYQxoAXJ4<br /><br />If the link won't work, search YouTube for:<br /><br />Glen Beck @ Tea Party!!Auntie Flo'noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35649541.post-21536635669112189422009-04-24T19:47:00.000+01:002009-04-24T19:47:00.000+01:00Sympathies, Philippa.

It's amazing how much stuff one accumulates. I dread moving house. <br /><br />BUT I still can't lift anything more than a couple of litres of milk but I HAD to put some stuff in the loft. I hurt from knee to bustline. Oh to be a big strong bloke. <br /><br />You know, people think that whenever I look with admiration at a broad-shouldered fine example of the male species that I'm a bit wierd. Perhaps they haven't lived with an iron will in a porcelain body. <br /><br />You'll bounce back soon I hope, Newms xxPhilipahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03440234602399886097noreply@blogger.com
