 We haven't spoken for 17 months and I suppose a lot could have happened in that time.
 It hasn't, but it could have.
 I've been approached locally (well it would be - cos I don't go anywhere) since it has gone out on Dave (estimated viewers... 3) so 7 million should get the queues building up again nicely. I may have to use the secret tunnel to come and go. Maybe it will become a traditional BBC Christmas show, like the Royal Society lectures, or A Muppet Christmas Carol.
 Maybe it's bedtime.

 Won't that result in a couple of dead people under a box of Vesta curries, cucumbers and wet wipes. If you miss the back garden by about 10 ft there will probably be a couple of dead people infront of the kitchen window which will probably make the situation worse!:DDebt LBM (08/09) £11,641.

            Oooh, you nice people are back! And with the promise of That Programme again! 
 Mike, I have some metal polish so if the skip needs to be brought up to public viewing standards I would be happy to oblige.
 I suggest an 'honesty box' somewhere on the front wall and see if you can borrow a puppy or kitten to place in the window nearest it for added appeal. That will also draw attention away from the shadowy figure in shades who is frantically polishing the chandelier in the depths.
 I would charge extra for viewing the chandelier, it's gorgeous!SouthernBellE* wrote: »If you're not a fan of country music, have a word with miggy, she managed to leap from Dolly Parton to Led Zepplin within minutes, I'm still scratching my head over how the hell that happened! 
 SB!!! Me dear - lovely to hear from you again! Don't go giving me an entirely unjustified reputation for knowing even the first thing about music, though - because I don't. Or can you tell?

 Mike, are they going to be filming 'Casualty' or something then? More royalties for you. Tip off the local press while you're at it - the more the merrier. Then sell your story to the nationals.
 There. Fortune made. (Slight lack of peace and privacy, sadly, but you will be able to afford extra thick net curtains - lucky you).Miggy

 Why 'EEK' though? Is this the Diretor's cut with previously unseen footage? (*Writes large in red ink on calendar*).Miggy
