what do we feel
The need to kick someone

when do we feel it
when we see our kids being ignored and left out.

NOt sure its gonna catch on, maybe needs some editing as a slogan.

That's good to hear, Mary. Perhaps you should play football with your ds - it would provide an outlet for your urge to kick ! Will you be preaching this weekend?

UniS. That's fascinating. I love MN. It's like the OU with twiglets.

Gosh mary not just any old Bishops, but Arch Bish O'York you do move in heavenly circles .

Do think he knows about the tea rooms neighbouring bishops and what they get up to windsurfing on the lake?

Thanks for asking Madbad, I've been out all evening, listening to this man. Very inspirational. I then had a chance encounter with someone I knew slightly, who was also there, and just talking to her made me feel a lot better. Not talking about what had happened with DS, but just sharing and chatting - was good!

Still need to kick someone up the arse, but I feel a lot stronger now, all power to my boot!

Not Christmas shopping tomorrow. Going to a festival of Blacksmithing at local foundry. Dh arrives home after 24 hours travelling and I think Boy needs to be kept out the way for part of teh day or poor daddy will be bounced to bits.
Tis St Clements day we will be celebrating en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Clement%27s_Day not sure boy will beg for apples... apple juice maybe.

comfort reading, thats teh phrase. I do like comfort reading. I'm gently collecting Monica Edwards books for just that. I have owned on and off a lot of Noel stretfeild, all have been good reads at somepoint but onlya few I chose to keep. The other week I ran across a couple of Angela Brazil books in a charity shop and tehy are waiting for a read. Havn;t been in teh right mood for them yet.
I'm on a social and oral history kick at teh mo, Just read books about Bevin Boys sent mining during WW1 and Land Girls in same period, current book is a collection of previously unpublished autobiographies of childhood between 1820 & 1920, makes me realise quite how far schools have come in under 200 yrs.

I love Ballet Shoes - in fact most Noel Streatfield. Real comfort reading.

Next week is v exotic - Manchester. I think DH may be busy though judging by the flooding, so it's a good thing I'm around.

All my shopping is being done online, so I'm going riding

Ok, so Kirikou's now on the shopping list for Christmas.

Daisy - Hoisting one's bosom is, I think, a metaphor. But, in some cases, a necessity.

<<Books urgent appointment at Rigby and Peller's A&E department>>

These are especially fine twiglets, UniS. Thank you. And this wine is very fine indeed.

Mary - Do things feel any better now?

Amber - A medal is exactly what you need.

Cmot - What's next week's itinerary?

So, who's going Christmas shopping tomorrow?

<<inspects blisters>>

purleseeee . love olives.
This evening I'm 3/4 watching Ballet shoes ( again) The film takes a few liberties with the book but is still pretty good.

So curl up on teh sofa snuggle under blanket and lets indulge girlish fantasies of dancing .

Back on my own sofa now Shop only had Barbapapa, and I find that hard enough to read in english.

Olives anyone ?
