by the way when the organiser came over and I told him I was on this site, he said mention that 'the real hustle' (tv programme) are looking for people to film (hustling or being hustled - I'm not sure which!)
Apparantly they've asked him to sprea…
oi tosscat just noticed your comment was aimed at me, thought there was a 'lordy' on this thread until I just reread it, no I ain't a lady - and if I'm a lesbian then its the secret lesbian trapped in a man's body variety.. though I'm fascinated now…
@katiejane your spelling is fine, I think its getting underlined because the yank spelling is omelet.
As for doing them, I would need to know the demand is there - its the commitment time wise the night before as well as the cost, need to build thi…
We're here at the moment. Mrs Cue has made chocolate chip muffins today, they're selling much faster than the rolls - and the feedback is good.
I've suggested the ripe banana bowls idea and she's going to consider trying that next time. If any one…
@commisar17 was it you that got on the bus to escape the council enforcement officers and then they forced the driver to wait at the stand while the popo turned up so they could get on the bus and 'take you down' over the cigarette end thing?

I think you're all unspeakably decadent. Unless you're hacking away using a tesco disposable with a broken handle and rust spots which your mate found on the tube in 2003 and making the lather from diluted jif then you're a big fat pussy.
I was having a conversation about just this recently, and basically apart from the business angle, the military is dependant on US technology, especially for the really "bad" weapons.
The UK developed their own A-bomb and then went on to drop the …
@David - good enough for me, I just have a suspicious mind - and I wasn't sure anyone would write "yall" unless they were imitating a yank, but you live and you learn!
@Debbie - sorry for doubting you!
Incidentally I think its great that Obama is…
I work in the system. I think it was an extremely noble idea and I massively admire Bevan, Beveridge and Attlee for making it happen -- some older patients can remember a time before the NHS when a visit to the doctor was a luxury for many families …
"sportswear store with no name"
