I went off Travaglio a bit in the puntata about Gaza as he was being quite rude and shouting over a woman guest. that was a very controverial episode, Lucia annunziata stormed off iin protest.

Sigh, I do miss London sometimes, but when I have to go there for work get really exasperated. I think if I ever moved back it's have to be somewhere relaxing yet in the hub like Bloomsbury or in the backwaters of Victoria (I wish!)

Penthe, you don't teach CT, do you? (scared)

hothell · 29/01/2009 22:00

Even secondaries can be fine, if you are wise enough. And we are not all competitive, in fact most of my friends aren't. You have ot mix in the right circles and have confidence in your kids.

Ups, sorry, don't answer, I got carried away and being too personal.

Penthesileia · 29/01/2009 22:01

I'm not even sure I know what CT is, so no! Why are you scared?

Really, Brange! Wow! Can I ask when, or is it like asking a lady her age?

PippiCalzelunghe · 29/01/2009 22:02

francagoestohollywood · 29/01/2009 22:02

Brangelina · 29/01/2009 22:03

Are you a lecturer? I was convinced you were the lady who lived on a chalet in a snowy mountain, lol. And where do you live. Whisper it.

PippiCalzelunghe · 29/01/2009 22:05

Franca, you'd feel sorry for the girls at the local girls school... brown jacket and sweatshirt, beige/cream/white/brown LONG plaited (sp?) skirts and thick woolen beige knee high socks that just keep on rolling down......

hothell · 29/01/2009 22:07

awful jackets, how the hell can the kids get into fights? and those mind boggling straw hats, they are not called straw hats though.
I was offered a place at that uni on mile end road, but turned it down.
bran, you are old!!!! i alway imagined you younger with an amazing mane of orangy/blonde hair.

Penthesileia · 29/01/2009 22:08

Are you going to come round my house and look in the windows, hothell?

I live somewhere north of London in a town with a famous university...
