I'm not sure if it'll be shown here as it seems sometimes you have to be an old man to live in this village, some nonsense about young people not being able to afford houses. I ask you, if I can afford two then there must be plenty to go round...<BR/><BR/>sarnia! long time no see. I could sit on my sun lounger you know, I just don't own that many jumpers, sigh<BR/><BR/>elberry, how lovely of you to drop by and share your insight into northern life. It's only because the renovation is at such an early stage that my little place reminds you of your student residence dear<BR/><BR/>arthur, really, what degree syllabus is going to include 'recognising the town you lived in for four years'?<BR/><BR/>PITK, thankyou, actually it does help one stand out against the snow<BR/><BR/>english courtesan, oh dear, if I am beginning to sound northern I really must be more careful. I must take a trip to harvey nics to try and wear it off, and pick up some ruby jimmy choos<BR/><BR/>nunheadmum dear, awfully intrigued, I'll be right overrilly superhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05448694078653341955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215550002397811882.post-91752913569235611152008-02-04T17:59:00.000+00:002008-02-04T17:59:00.000+00:00anonymous, these films don't get shown enough on t...anonymous, these films don't get shown enough on the big screen nowadays. The furthest back my cinematic visits have taken me lately is Brief Encounter. I suspect that Laurel and hardy might be banned this side of the Pennines though, with Stan Laurel being from Lancashire, sigh<BR/><BR/>expatmum, you're right you know, but all those wagon train folks didn't know how well off they were. We poor southern pioneers up north can't even pull the wagons around in a circle, what with living on a one way street and everything<BR/><BR/>ladythinker, melodramatic w***!? I fear you are putting words into his mouth dear! and as for the beer/pistol confusion it's a mistake often made around these parts, a gel asks a chap 'is that a gun in your pocket? only for him to pull out a bottle of beer and say 'thanks lass, I'd forgotten that was there', sigh<BR/><BR/>oh M&M, at least someone understands me. we should meet up for a girls night out, two black and white heroines getting away from that man with the large organ for a few hours..<BR/><BR/>aims dear, she was very beautiful as a young girl, and as befitting a goddess she did actually live to be as old as God I believe<BR/><BR/>arthur, thanks for dropping by.
