'Is there anybody there?', said the Traveller,
Knocking on the moonlit door....
oh poop, it's my door, why am I knocking?
mmmm,
looks like shaney's got the writer's block already

To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep....oh bu��er ...!
got ink from that bloomin quill all over me paper....have to write another one now......
there was a lady from ealing who had a peculiar feeling...(:O)

Hello everyone is this our new home. Hope so cos otherwise I'm lost!
Been to Tai Chi this morning and had the most lovely lunch at a local restaurant. I have Feta and Olive Salad cos I want to lose a bit of weight and then i went and spoilt it all and had, well let me explain, it was a chocolate pyramid filled with mousse and raspberry stuff with cream all over it covered in Dram Buie. Loverly!!!
Kit My thoughts are with you even though we don't share really personal things on here for obvious reasons I think we are all very caring about each other. I have a friend who I tell everything to. I would miss these threads because there are times when I am on my own and need someone to talk to and have a laugh with and that's when I come on here.
See you later :o)

is this the way to the annual moth ball
Sorry, it's the other hat: quills, anyone...?
Well that worked like a charm: Ask Vinny a question and the whole mob comes running, shouting and waving their knives in the air. My mistake - didn't realize we were all packing! jno there is indeed a device on the handle that might be described as a clip but I can't figure out how to do anything with it except feed the blade forward. But nevermind, I'll...erm... use some pliers. Wearing goggles of course!
Shaney & Shaney and Vinny, the three of you really grabbed me: Shaney and Shaney shuffling between benches and staring vacantly at nothing at all, not making it down to the water, and you Vinny with the whole story. I love your spelling, Vinny. Be it deliberately transcriptional or not, it's like hearing a voice, and it seems to me you've done well for yourself by not hardening your heart. I have a feeling that in the final analysis you've given your kids more than you yourself received, and if that's not a life well lived - what is. Sorry if that sounds a bit mushy, but I wanted to say it.
On a different note, I received an invitation from a former colleague who's taken up bellydancing (!!!) to attend her students' performance. People never cease to surprise me - just when you think you know somebody, turns out you didn't.

jno, when you were up in the air in that balloon, was there any particular dress code...?
I should do a reading before I take my leave or whatchamacallit.
I Have A Little Cough
I have a little cough, sir,
In my little chest sir,
Every time I cough, sir,
It leaves a little pain, sir,
Cough, cough, cough, cough,
There it is again, sir.
And this one:
I do not like thee, Doctor Fell,
The reason why I cannot tell;
But this I know, and know full well,
I do not like thee, Doctor Fell.
Taking my leave, nitie nite.
