Well, this should guarantee us some visitors if it comes up on 'Most Active'.

Ok, the next 2 aren't John Standring, but it would be rude not to...

As long as it's not the Academy taxi rank...

SupermassiveLBD · 31/03/2011 23:02

for the name of the new thread, I mean.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 31/03/2011 23:04

Oh please let it not be Lee. There would be too much compulsory swimming and hideous speedos. How about cuddly Harry and his repertoire of woolly jumpers? It sort of flows on naturally from the sheep husbandry here.

Goodnight Twiggy!

SupermassiveLBD · 31/03/2011 23:12

Yes, we could be Wild about Harry, and exchange knitting pattererns and such.
I don't mind Lee and his Speedos, the poor lamb

I should be heading up the apples and pears myself...

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 31/03/2011 23:16

And there would be ..... glasses too.

I'm pooped and it must be even later on the tropical island. Good night.

Goodnight, Maud, have a peaceful one.

::Looks back at you::

Who wouldn't be wild about Harry?

You too.

I thought for a moment you were referring to JP & Lucas being a handful in the back of a taxi!

The Kennedy Institute of Accountancy & Woolly Jumpers?

Women in Love was interesting (& rude - long time since I saw Chatterley - wasn't expecting quite that much sex Confused). Will probably watch second half tonight.

Hope everyone's aches & pains & Twigboy's ear are on the mend this morning.

Morning Spiro, have you put the kettle on?

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 01/04/2011 09:29

Morning - nice surprise this morning!

TheSmallPrint · 01/04/2011 09:32

Morning Phoenix, how does one come accross a russian website by chance? Some nice photos on there, though I wish I could read the text.

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 01/04/2011 09:39

Not by chance - it was tweeted by @GizGunslinger - in fact I've seen a few tweets about it - and it's posted in several places otherwise.

TheSmallPrint · 01/04/2011 09:49

ahh the joys of Twitter! I have no idea about Twitter, I went to try and lok at joining it once but got confused and left.

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 01/04/2011 10:08

Twitter is great - and joining it is really easy!!!! You should try again - I love it - I have some great conversations there.

SupermassiveLBD · 01/04/2011 11:03

Now we know what the Man's name looks like in the Cyrillic alphabet!
I taught it to myself at one time but haven't the skill or patience to go through and work out anything more than those two words Wink

Thank you, Phoenix!

PS Phoenix - I don't care how you came across that Russian website - you've just introduced me to my favourite photo ever of The Man.
