I don't know either! I think I only chose it because "penguin" was already taken when I signed up...
May one ask, are you female? Because the "pengween" pronunciation seems feminine to me - it suggests a beautiful and sophisticated lady penguin. But "penguin-E" feels more masculine - possibly a tough male secret agent penguin.
Clearly the amount of time my kids spend playing Club Penguin is turning my brain to mush. Back to the topic...
Why do so many 3 bed houses have two decent sized bedrooms and one small shoebox-like one? From the point of view of a family with the archetypal two kids, it would be much better to have one big bedroom for the parent(s) and two medium sized ones for the kids.Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

One of the, er, ''issues'' here is that we, well, I and DH, are poppin in and out to the animals and or arden and ettin filthy muddy in clothes we wouldn't really want on in the house/near our furniture, so we tend to strip at te door and then when we go out pull the filthy clothes back on.
Yes, not dissimilar to life chez treliac.
I was thinking rather more of naturism in the wider community though. You know, like the prospect of hitching myself up onto some bar stool just vacated by the large spreading behind of a portly, semi-inebriated elderly gentleman retiring from the naturists' social club bar!0 -

well, in the wider community you carry a towel and spread it where you sit. When I was little I had a friend who family were naturists. I remember my mother asking me why it was I liked them so very much and I remember saying I liked showerering there because it was so communal and friendly 
. which even for me was probably a pretty weird response. 0 -

£285k for a 1 bed. I might offer £70k if I'm feeling generous.
Flat on the corner of a busy road, over a shop. £70k is generous.0 -
