my gawd - you're right, what is going on with the hair. Twice yearly crop?

AitchTwoOh · 02/05/2007 21:42

what has happened to his hair, it was fine a minute ago?

MuminBrum · 02/05/2007 21:43

He's been using his own hair in the render. Pruni, you are a teeeeease. I'll winkle it out of you eventually, I am one hell of a winkler.

Whizzz · 02/05/2007 21:44

LOL was just going to say - he harvests his hair for the plaster!

trippleshot · 02/05/2007 21:44

great chessy smile must compensate for crop

AitchTwoOh · 02/05/2007 21:46

he does have a funny way of speaking, doesn't he? is it just his accent or is he a bit adenoidal?

Whizzz · 02/05/2007 21:46

his poor wife on the roof!!

Whizzz · 02/05/2007 21:47

his hair is getting bigger !!

SenoraPostrophe · 02/05/2007 21:47

pruni : I just told dh about your efl theory. he wants to know if you've ever been to east anglia (and he does have a point actually)

not all, but let's just say the fit:weird ratio is below the national average.

at university once we had a seminar on incest, and the arrogant twat of a teacher tried to say that "there is no genetic reason" for incest taboos (which is not true). I said "that's not true, go to Norfolk", and he hated me from then on.

AitchTwoOh · 02/05/2007 21:54

aw, they've done a good job. a bit harry potterish for me but lovely all the same.

Twiglett · 02/05/2007 21:54

is it just me or have they actually just build Pooh-Bear's cottage?
