It does annoy me when people pronounce St Pancras Station as St Pancreas. Someone on the BBC pronounced it thus - honestly, what is the BBC coming to?????
I wish someone would tell my Boss that.............. ;-)
(Who the hell thought up this anyway - what next, an Anti-Pot-Noodle Day? A Pro-Harley-Davidson Day?)...
in 8 days' time. I thought I'd "do a Doc" and give plenty of notice, so you all have time to come up with the right words, sentiments and emotions. And presents can be forwarded on via Royal...
It is so annoying. And it's not the first time it's happened to me.
£6 a pair; not cheap ones from Aldi. I could spit. You girls know to what I refer, don't you... Don't you? ;-)...
Why do most people put things on e-bay at night, so those of us who only have access to computers during the day miss most of the 'last bidding' war. Twice this week I have bit on 2 x beautiful German...
Just had to tell you I woke up in the middle of the night tittering at your reply yesterday to my "how would you describe yourself as a lonely heart?" - your answer: 'Droll Ol' Prole looking...
Now I always thought a quango was something to do with a Latin American Dance Album that Englebert Humberdinck brought out in the mid-90's (it does exist - honest. And I absolutely love it). But I now...
This was an ad in the Lonely Hearts column in a newspaper. I thought it was hilarious - though I doubt she got many responses (unless they were from lesbians.....?) In 8 words or less - how would you...

What the heck is this flipping Ikea advert? All those cats..... fair gives me the willies, never mind nightmares. For me, and to a certain extent bobbs, it's the advert from hell. The only one...
Stupidly I spraypainted a mirror frame with cream (gloss-type) paint without protecting my driveway - I thought it would easily wash off with turps. It didn't. I have tried aforesaid turps, bleach and...
Bleedin rats.... Tail, discarded fur & giblet remnants have now been disposed of.... thanks to Lee-de-li-do and my man. I've used enough Jeyes Fluid & Milton to sink the Bismarck. I've got...
singing "Don't worry, about a ting. Cos every little ting's, gonna be awright...." And I thought, Tilly, get your fat(ish) ass back home & sweat out your virus (official diagnosis; acute...
.. An update on My Rat Disease (last mentioned in body & soul). Diagnosis: Pharyngitis. Cause: Too much talking to Welsh people. Cure: Honey, shtting up for a while and when better, going on a...
...even more boring that zzxxee's 'another boring thread'.
What is the most boring thing you have to do or have done?
(This may not actually be all that boring, once we get going......)...
I've got a cold which has turned to laryngitis. I am managing (just) to croak. How come, some women with colds sound all gruff & sexy like Mariella Frostrup - whereas I should like Phyllis Pearce...
I have convinced myself in one of those middle-of-the-night panics that I may have contracted Weil's disease. What are the odds on this? Found a dead rat writing with maggots floating belly up in my...
