Hang on... You're agreeing with me?! :shock:
Who are you and what have you done with Nigel?! :lol:
I've hacked into his account after tying him up and dumping him in his shed! :D

Ask a stupid question... :lol:

So for when Nigel manages to get out of his shed, you're [dis]agreeing with me because...??? :wink:

Just been released by Jane - it took her a long time to miss me - and it gets pretty cold at the far end of our garden! P-S, my old mighty sandwich maker, I wasn't aware that I often disagree with you. I enjoy the period 'feel' of the 90s series, and have often felt that Marco rather let the side down. However, on reading your post, I felt maybe I had misjudged him. Hence my intention to watch some of the episodes again.

Happy now? :roll:

Oh Dear Nigel, I feel my comment has offended you! I do apologise. I was merely surprised, that after some of your posts about my dear boy, that you seemed quite willing to give him a second chance! :D

I was only teasing in any case.

Please do let me know your verdict, and whether my point does stand up to scrutiny. :D

Oh dear... got to stop this afternoon drinking... Oh the life of a student! :lol:

My angel, it would take more than a comment from such a sweet person as you to cause me offence! :D

Surprisingly this post is not, as many people would think, about Marco. [Do I hear a sigh of relief? :wink: ]

This one's actually about Paul Child and his band.

Basically, bored after my last lecture I started googling the 90's Famous Five and wondered on to Paul's band's Myspace page. He's actually really good! A long way from wanting to become a professional snooker player! :lol:

Posting the link here so people can have a listen. :lol: My flatmate approves. :P Which is always a plus! :P

Just thought I'd mention that I went to one of Paul Child's gigs the other night. It was really good. I won't go into too much detail, but Paul was lovely- we had a very lovely chat after the gig and a quick chat before hand, and the music was fantastic. :D

Check out my Live journal blog if you want to know more. It's the new link in my signiture. Bottom post! 8)

I wonder if Stef is secretly Paul Child's publicist. She's got me listening to his band anyway. :D

Pah! Last time I checked, Fiona, I couldn't get you to do anything you didn't want to already. ;)
I think the arrival of a certain package probably helped push you in that direction as well!
