    There are usually a few films on iplayer, I would probably steer clear of 'Tsotsi' which we watched last night. Was very close to home for us too :(

    I cannot work i player.

    Dh says he wants me to teach him to do handstands instead of watching a film. :eek:

    Love 'em or hate 'em, i cannot decide. Dh things they look like paper.

    I think they are gorgeous, but it is not me who has to live with them, it's you and fir. If he thinks they look like paper and you can't decide, they're probably not worth spending the money on.

    I like things i have the simultaneous marmite reaction towards. :D

    Ideally though i want the same tile on floor and wall so wit these i would have to find ones you would not stub your toe on that are same shade and size and preferably not polished and lethal fot the floor, which might not be easy. The dusting aspect ha occured to me too:o

    Saturday night ... 7pm ..... top/popular seaside resort famed for pumping crowds and mayhem ...... took my life in my hands to go grab a chinese and .... totally crossed all roads without even having to look because IT'S DESERTED OUT THERE!!!!

    The road I had to cross is the main road through - and usually busy, busy, busy, at a standstill ... chokka .... and people speeding in spurts to 'impress' .... nothing. Nobody.

    Vivre La Recession. I can cross roads, no queue for the chinese, no queue in Aldi. Joyous :)

    If you're where I'm thinking, we stopped for a coffee in the Sainsbury's after our drive down from the Midlands :-)

    The hot air stripper worked excellently in that one today, did tyhe whole frame. I spent as long On the other stone one some months ago and did an inch. Will go back to that other one when muscles allow to see if it is a genuine difference. I thought it a good inside winter job, but proved not to be.

    I am positive there is a good chance our paint contains lead. The precautions i take are not to roll around in it, eat it, nuzzle against it or other wise engage in lesser recognised paint based fetishes. I also open a window. I accept he risks are real but i am indestructable....:D

    Also works very well with the handcuffs when you want a bit of variation in bed;)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    I can do those.... then teach him to lean backwards to the wall, then walk his hands down the wall so he's in the crab!

    We have set our alarm for half four when it is meant to be at its best i think. :)
    Bar-ger that!!! I'd actually forgotten already to be honest. Had a long/dull phone call interrupting my thoughts, so it'd gone out of my mind.

    I'd not have recommended that ..... worst experience of my life in there - walked out in the end.

    :)

    If it was a tiny S, then yes - if it was a biggun, with an upstairs and escalators, then no I don't live there.

    It didn't have an escalator as far as I can remember, but there were wet suits for sale at the door! Had driven all the way from the Midlands so needed to stretch legs...and I was keen to pass on the driving seat for the narrow step Cornish roads (plus I'm better with the map apparently).Can't say it was the best coffee I've ever had but it did the trick and the loos were passable :-)
