got this off a syruppy american website i havent managed to get around to unsubscribing to (they auto signed me up somehere along the way...)

"You must first have a lot of patience to learn to have patience."

~ Stanislaw J. Lec

stuck a chord with me, in my current crusade to become Calm, Logical, Sane Mama (rather than Angry Awful Mother which i fear i can be sometimes)
dunno who Stanislav is but, quite an astute observation, no?

Nappies..

On the red dwarf theme

"Too slow chicken merengo" (the cat) is often used in our house

Aaaaah, the happy days when we loved red dwarf and Craig Charles wasn't an 'alleged' crack smoking rapist. Marvellous.

I ignore anything bad said about Craig Charles

Red Dwarf - in the good old days when Lister's top was actually dirty!!!

"We could go back to Dallas in 1963, stand on the grassy knoll and shout "Duck""

On teh red dwarf bent

'Monkey, you look sick!'

and the classic from The Princess Bride
'Why do you keep saying that word? I do not think it means what you think it means'

Normally at my 10 month DD when she sits there going 'bah, bah, bah'
