    Hey booky, I have never blasphemed since I was 11/12 years old. I have never said 'Jesus Christ' in vain. I used to love RE at school and like singing patriotic songs in church. I did fancy the RE teached mind, Miss Tinkler she was called :D and she used to wear stockings too :D:D

    butternut squash is lovely roasted with some chilli mince, or mashed up and used as a topping for cottage pie.

    There is a big stand off in the USA about Creationism and the Theory of evolution and what they should teach in the schools out there. I suppose it is a big thing

    If you water them more - the ground softens... ;)

    Hey did everyone hear the details of that couple that jumped off that cliff in Beachy Head with their Son? It was so so sad. I was listening to an account by someone who knew them on the radio yesterday and it was heart wrenching. The young lad was quadraplaegic and he had died of meninghitis 4 days earlier. And at first thought it sounds a bit strange to do that but it turns out that he was their life. Father had given up his job to look after him. He was their world. Its so sad. They had a bag of toys as well on the cliff edge. Oh dear.......

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
