Just looking at Classic FM's website — they have a dating section, which always has one excerpt from someone's profile featured on the main website's homepage (you have to become a Romance member yourself in order to access the rest, which I am NOT interested in doing). Just now saw one that reads:

I am happy intelligent women looking for intelligent man to share...

(It doesn't specify how many of her there are. :shock: )

I think, by the way, the sentence is meant to continue after "share" — it's probably something like "to share my life with" or "to share good times with" or something like that. (As I said, this was just a clip from the "romance" section that appears on the main website and you have to subscribe to read the whole profile, so I've no idea what the rest of the sentence was.) But it does make it sound even more interesting the way it is. :wink:

On Radio 4 all last week, just before the 6 o'clock news there was a joke.

Here are a few of them:

A penguin goes into a bar and says to the bartender, "Has my brother been in here?", the bartender replies "I don't know, what does he look like?"

....

A gorilla goes into the pub, the barman says "Good evening sir, how can I help you?" The gorilla replies "I'd like a pint of Guinness please." After a while, the barman can't contain his curiosity any longer and says, "We are very pleased to see you in here today and I hope you don't mind me saying this, but we don't get gorilla's in here very often." The gorilla replied, "I'm not surprised at these prices!"

Good ones, Deepeabee. :lol: :wink:

But oh no... Pete's picture further up the thread has disappeared and now I can't remember what it was that we were all laughing at!! :shock: Is it just my computer, or has that happened for everyone — and if so, Pete, perhaps you could post it again?

I can still see the picture so perhaps it was a temporary blip? Sometimes hosting sites go down for a while.
