    My favourite one is the second one, I had to get the others before I could get that one, but it makes me chuckle now I can see it.

    missk, I agree re Zumba, but as you are such a Strictly fan have you considered taking up ballroom dancing? I don't know how old this list is (it has the right name for my local school though) but may be a good starting point:

    I'm a fan but I have no co-ordination. I know it seems a bit weird but i am really just a gauche dumpling :)

    It's me, but it was done in a program where you upload a picture and it runs something called "Simpsonize Me".
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Pastures, I would not get too excited about this, if I were you. I received a PM giving me the names of all the "people" in the pictures, and I had only heard of 2/8 of them. It is a bit like one of those jokes where you have to have the punchline explained to you several times. Or a terribly clever impersonation on the television of somebody you have never seen before.

    For those who get it, it is great fun, and for the rest of us it is just not worth worrying about.
    There used to be a non-joke years ago ... something about bread on a bike. Never got that... but I think it was supposed to be a joke that wasn't, that was meaningless....

    Missk, if you have no coordination choose latin not ballroom. The distinct and obvious beat forces co-ordination. You'll be a pro in no time. Not only that, but when Len talks about cucarachas and stuff you can nod in a sagely manner that befits someone with a doctorate;)

    Good news!

    Thank them for their interest but keep knocking 'em back until you hear the word final at least twice. ;)
    That might work round your way .... but down here people are a bit more strapped and a bit more earthy. More likely to say "Shove it" than "final offer".

    Had loads of offers.... 3 have gone to market to try to sell so they could buy it, one's praying and crying nightly to find a replacement buyer so he can continue to buy it ... and now these two. And there are others that I've forgotten. Almost offers daily... just many thought we'd wait for them.

    Ok, they are cartoon characters. The first one is the Simpsons. See Marge's tall blue hair? If you don't like cartoons or don't watch the Simpsons, or your brain isn't wired that way you may not see that. It still might not make sense, but hopefully it will at least a bit now. My brain isn't wired to be an SEO genius, we all have a different skill-set.

    Maybe the price is a tad on the low side?
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Oh. I've never seen the Simpsons... and didn't know Marge had blue hair.

    My brain's not wired to be an SEO genius these past few months, it takes a real nerdy approach of immersion.

    And, actually, I'm a lazy SEO genius. I know WHAT to do - I just don't do it .... I just happen to still make muneh :)
