Preparedness for when

Just looked out of the window and, even though it's only just gone 8pm, the cars in the street are already frozen.

Make sure you're spaced out on sensation, like you're under sedation.

It's not easy having a good time! Even smiling makes my face ache!

I'm going to do something productive.

Actually, b*gger that for a game of soldiers. I'm gonna lie on the sofa eating sweeties, drinking tea and reading a novel.

:eek: Sometimes......in the dark hours of the night.......I worry that TPTB will discover how much I love my eccentric little life and come and do something just turrible to me.* :eek:

* I was thinking along the lines of compulsory TV watching or being made to read celebrity magazines or summat like that.

GQ - born to be mild. Or perhaps riled.:rotfl:See ya on the Day of the Sun - if we're spared.

Not exactly.

I have seen the live stage show, twice, but never while wearing high heals and fishnets.



Not sadly at all PP.

IMHO, the RHS is a the greatest comedy stage show of all time.

Anyone who hasn't seen it (either live or on TV/Video), doesn't know what they are missing.

Now you have brought it up it may be time to watch it again. It's been a while - my copy is on VHS, put it that way

I went to see a stage performance of the RHS whilst 8 months pregnant and called a virgin because I hadn't dressed up. I replied 'Hardly darling!'

The sky round here is filling up with dark storm clouds - heavy, black, and pendulous.

It's true also, that the spare tyre they were carrying was badly in need of some air.

Sorry, got a bit carried away there.

LOL Bob! A Rocky Horror Fan here loving your post ...come up to the lab. . . . . . .and see what's on the sla-b-b-b-b!




Die hard fans here -have seen it 7-8 times - dressed initially as Magenta and 20 years on, now do the time warp in vintage swallow tailed dinner jacket as an unconventional conventionalist. DH still working the fishnets, operating gown and 6 inch heels look.

Oh please. Anything but that.

Actually, not quite anything.

I'd even take the compulsory TV watching, ahead of doing something intimate with Cherie Blair. :eek:

What's REALLY worrying Bob, is that you've actually thought about it as an option... :cool:

Thanks, Jk0; certainly makes you think. I've been quite lax about water, reasoning that I'm only a couple of hundred yards from a river & we could easily take & sterilise river water if the mains went off for a while. We also have rainwater barrels in several places round the garden, although I do have a strange tendency to stuff fleeces into them - cleaning them via a fermented suint, for anyone who knows what I mean - and you really wouldn't want to drink that… :eek:

But I'd always assumed that if the mains water went off, it'd be back fairly quickly & that at least the stuff in the river (closest bit is a chalk stream tributary, clean & fast-running) would be usable after boiling or sterilising. But in the case of something like that - you just don't know what might be in it, or for how long - we'd be stuffed, with just a few bottles of potable stuff lurking under the stairs.

Speaking of water, we're moving DS2 and the trainee-daughter-in-law out to a house shared with friends today, only a couple of miles away, on the other side of the water-meadows. And today, they are lush green pastureland, if rather devoid of sheep, with just the odd baffled albatross sitting on the one or two fenceposts that are still upright. Apart from the mess under the hedges, which you need to look closely to see, you'd never know that even yesterday, they were submerged under a raging torrent. Just goes to show how deceptive appearances can be.

Mother Nature never fails to amaze me, particularly when it comes to putting the World back to its natural order; it's the human race who won't let Her be, that cause the bluddin aggro :mad: by forcing things to move against the norm & calling it an "improvement".

I remember when a certain owner of a particular cosmetics company had a new factory built & they had reed beds to filter all the water they used, including the loos! (Wonder if that's still there, cuz the shops seem to have disappeared along with that awful bottle-green paintwork they had as their corporate colour...)


Anyone see eye tee vee 1 on Thurs evening, when they were discussing the pros & cons of building on flood plains :rotfl: Own up! Which one of you is a tv producer who specialises in documentaries ... we were talking about this very thing only a few pages back, so come out, come out, where ever you are!!!:p
