Loving this sentiment. A friend told me that she used to have photos of all her family on display, then when the in-laws came to visit she would do a quick swap around and put their photos up.

Used to drive past a pet cemetery. Couldn't believe the indulgence or isolation that implies.

Somebody told me that the headstones are rotated on the anniversaries of the pets deaths so that when people come to see the grave they think that Rover has his own individual grave.:eek:

This used to be my favourite book as a child - 50 + years ago! I doubt you'll find it on many bookshelves now.

I read that when I was a child, only 25 or so years ago.

Very large dose of Ibuprofen. Reduces the inflammation, so you don't tense up so much, so it hurts less, so you don't tense up so much, which reduces the inflammation, etc.... Virtuous circle. Works for me every time.

Ah, I see that Murray's become British all of a sudden.

Stopped raining here by lunchtime and the sun came out...and hasn't gone back in yet.

Mum and dad are chuffed, middle son had not played his drums for a while as one of his cymbal stands broke and we couldn't afford to replace it, so they bought him one which arrived today. So he was straight upstairs at their house (where the drum kit lives - I'm not as mad as I appear) and practiced for an hour.

I always knew I had the coolest parents in my year at high school and they are still the same in their advanced years, as soon as middle son started playing, dad started walking around with the hugest grin you have ever seen.

If you had black friends over to dinner - would you be happy to have them on display ?.

Whilst I would never go out and buy a golliwog, because I dont want one, I shouldn't think I would be friends with anyone up tight enough to get offended by something so innocuous.
