    Current gov see 1984 as a manual rather than a warning...now who's first for one of those nice identity cards. Don't worry you have nothing to worry about if you haven't done anything wrong but I have seen just how accurate Home Office data is :eek:
    well, despite me not being quite as tin foil hat as many of my esteemed chums here, I heartily recommend you read (or get on audio version) some Orwell. Animal Farm and 1984 are both such classics they are consistently referenced in modern culture....and have shaped much literary work following them. You may well be amazed at modern references you have missed before reading them. I'm no huge Orwell fan....but there is no doubting the influence has been tremendous.
    I think....

    what did you want to know? They were perfect knee length, not sexy black...sorry ;), a goldeny chestnut brown...and flat, not heeled. so not really sexy, but just perfectly proportioned day time boots.:o

    My hunger for knowledge frequently gets me into trouble!:D

    Actually, I don't think boots need to be black, nor with massive heels to be sexy. What they need to do is accentuate the leg drool.gif

    & colour of said boots depends upon the outfit surely!
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    I want a pink set but more for the idea of them being mine then not his (OH) and hopefully not ending up in his tool case getting scruffy. I've got no colour vision at all so they'll look no different to me lol.
    There was a "lady developer" on Homes under the Hammer one morning that had a whole girly pink toolbox, containing girly things and a few cr4ppy tools. She bought one of those 1-bed houses where you get four in a square and each is a corner, with a spiral staircase to upstairs. If I was on my other PC I could dig out how well she did ... I am sure I recall a loss situation.

    Although I will admit to having used a knife as a screwdriver before when I couldn't find one.
    I did that last week, I was building an argos canvas shoe-caddy for somebody. I thought finger tight would be OK, then I was offered a knife.

    I am wearing some £3 fake crocs I was given. So, not only fake crocs, but cheap fake crocs ... and 2nd hand.

    I'm such a peasant :)

    Talking of stalking. If you can track me down, I'm happy to meet. You'll recognise me because I'll be wearing a blue shirt.

    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?
