Nice people thread part 6 - thrice by twice as nice :)

I'm with you on this one PN - didn't see the show but if I had I probably would be able to say that she person had hair cos I'm pretty sure I'd have noticed if she were bald but it is odd-on I wouldn't remember the colour or anything else about it. Went to Morrisons with DS this AM and moderately attractive Indian lady smiled and said hello so I smiled and said hello back but obviously looked sufficiently blank for her to say 'A...' which helped as I had texted 'A...' last night to arrange for her daughter to come and play with DD2 this afternoon - in my defence I have probably only met the lady less than half a dozen times at the school gate...

OK - and from a girl's position:

I, as a girl, had NO Idea they were extensions ... I just thought the girl had grown her hair. The programme said "you've not got short hair any more" and she said "No, I missed long hair so I had these extensions put in".... there is NO WAY I'd have EVER known they were extensions.

As to whether they were bad extensions or not - who knows - but I do know her hair looked funny.



I also didn't notice shiny/matt .... so Legoff must be metrosexual to some big degree.... she had HAIR. That's all. Hair.

PN (and others into websites) a piece on the BBC suggesting Google are playing round with their algorithm again - what fun for anyone involved in SEO

Well, let's hope I can improve upon my current £50/week then! And to think a year ago I was annoyed if it didn't make that each day

We children all thought it was called welsh rabbit.

To us welsh rarebit was cheese on toast, melted under the grill.

I did wonder if kids in England had english rarebit or whether that was something different, or whether they called it welsh rarebit because we ate it first.

There is a whole page of speculation about this on Wikipedia.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_rarebit

I have an important experiment to conduct. For whatever reason, we were discussing mushrooms at work. As with on here, it was a subject with a polarising effect. Some love them, some hate them. However discussing other food types we identified an interesting correlation.

Those who like mushrooms also like Garibaldi and see them as an important addition to the biscuit family. Those who didn't like mushrooms thought (I am representative of this group) saw Garibaldi biscuits as a waste of time as it's like trying to dunk a Ryvita.

So, NP mushroom lovers, are you also Garibaldi people? NP mushroom haters, do you too see them as a waste of time.

Hate mushrooms. Eat any biscuits without nuts. Prefer biscuits with choccy on em though....:)

It's been hot, hot, hot here again today ..... so hot that for the past 2 days I've not opened the curtains as a way to keep the temperature down (alaternative would have, of course, been to sit in the garden under the shade of the tree..... but as I've not done the gardening, there's no garden furniture and there's nothing to do out there .... it seemed better to stay indoors where the PC and TV are).

I have looked at lots of lovely food photos today..... one of my top hobbies. Actually eaten: some turkish delight ... and for lunch a reduced (12.5p) only-1-day-out-of-date-now Cheese/Onion slice microwaved.

Living the dream......

I am with pn...for me thats cheese on toast but welsh rarebit is cheese and beer and stuff done on the hob then poured onto toast.

Ladies, do you ever have a day where you get up in the morning feeling like sh*t, get by through the day filled with nothing but caffeine lining your stomach, chuck on the first clothes you find, look in the mirror and think you died at the night and appear to be decomposing? That's me this morning.

So apologies to the NP that I met for the first time today. I don't normally look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards, honest... First impressions and all that.
