    I actually thought you meant a water otter:rotfl: :rotfl:

    (ie I did wonder if it was a real water boiling kettle but then, knowing your penchant for odd names thought it might have been a small furry. Please tell me you're over your distress now...)

    I know we had floods a while back but come ON.... :rolleyes:

    Actually.. Peaches sounds like boiling water when she purrs..... stupid name for a cat.. Peaches.. which idiot thought of that?

    When asked leading questions such as "is there anything else like a DVD, a CD, a toy, book anything like that?" her answer was "nope...just a DS, and the hamper off you....and whatever anyone else wants to buy me" :rotfl::rotfl:

    I still believe too so stop saying mean things about them, it hurts their feelings.

    I need a cuppa an a dash about to warm up - it was so so cold in that exam hall.

    I still belive in fairies and I am almost 31. But then again, I am weird anyway. Must be the pagan in me lol.

    I still believe in them to some extent, but since I'm the one who puts the money under DD's pillow when she looses a tooth, and I'm the one paying out for the Xmas pressies :rolleyes::rotfl::rotfl:

    I LIVE a sitcom darlink!!!

    Kettle was the absolutely VITAL pet which was worshipped a million times daily.. anyway he is all washed and ready to out in his box in a polystyrene shroud.. don't want people to think I ran a slovenly ship when he is dug up by Time Team in 5000 years time now do we?


    And there are people who think it's excessive (sp?) to throw out clean laundry...
    Think I'll go and worship mine...

    justamum...I waved at the fairy bridge as well when I was over there, although I didn't realise it wasn't the real one!

    Nearly cleared it! Just hope this bookshelf fits :)
