  • Hey Poppy

    Do you like a man in uniform? We might need an officer of the law to investigate the case of the missing flapjacks and as there seems to be a shortage of unbagsied totty I thought we could all bring our favourite PC instead......

    (Scratches head and tries to think of any decent policemen) How about Elliot Stabler from Special Victims Unit? (Reminds me a bit of Phil Spencer)

    Is this for real? Skating injury? Tell all, and (gentle!)hug if it's true.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
