Hi Brits

I'm not dead

just back from Cornwall in fact and feeling pretty good

back to reality. normal stabbings and murders.

And why to people swear all the time? Surely mayhem is nothing to swear about.

Thanks for the link Steve.

I skipped over SL natch.

But after reading Sachs's " aren't we all just the greatest minds in history" intro I started feeling a bit woozy.

Sachs should stick to art.

Anyway-more important matters are in the offing. The Grand National looms.

The greatest race in de woild. Very difficult to find the winner despite my extraordinary record on A2K at the task.

I propose we all make a selection.

Mine is Point Barrow which may well be favourite at the off and though it is a big horse, stays forever, jumps well and is supposed to be able to go on any surface I'm not sure the fast ground the forecast suggests they'll have won't suit one of the lightweights even better. Still-I'm backing it.

If it runs as sweetly as that sentence it'll sure go close. I would claim that it is almost the opposite of prolix. Hugging the rails.

Sorry to hear about your "A" Pentacle Queen.

Regarding the Bill - I hate that programme, never watched a sinlge episode. Kind of like Casualty or Holby City, no?

Jealous of your beach party - hope you had fun.

Er...feminine logic? Or maybe just intuition.

What's to do with Smorgs these days?

Any road up, hiya chuck. I miss the female touch around the thread, oo-er missus.

She enjoys being a girl, as the song says:

I'm a girl, and by me that's only great!
I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,
That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait
With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.

I adore being dressed in something frilly
When my date comes to get me at my place.
Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,
Like a filly who is ready for the race!

When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a girl!

When men say I'm cute and funny
And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl,
I just lap it up like honey
I enjoy being a girl!

I flip when a fellow sends me flowers,
I drool over dresses made of lace,
I talk on the telephone for hours
With a pound and a half of cream upon my face!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

When men say I'm sweet as candy
As around in a dance we whirl,
It goes to my head like brandy,
I enjoy being a girl!

When someone with eyes that smoulder
Says he loves ev'ry silken curl
That falls on my iv'ry shoulder,
I enjoy being a girl!

When I hear the compliment'ry whistle
That greets my bikini by the sea,
I turn and I glower and I bristle,
But I happy to know the whistle's meant for me!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

Anybody been talking about Britain's elite Naval special forces while I've been away?

That's the SASSS in case you dont know. (Surrender Apologise Sell Story to Sun).

The British Ambassador to Iran (yes we have one) is to take out an ad in the Tehran edition of Exchange and Mart.

Wanted.. Two naval military patrol boats, assorted weaponry and state of the art satellite navigation equipment. Will exchange 14 suits and a headscarf (hardly worn).

F**king unbelievable, intit.

I don't think John Mills or Jack Hawkins would give this lot much credit.
Sing like canaries on Iran TV, take the money, and run.

Actually I don't think you can blame the individual matelots too much, innocents abroad and all that, but the MoD need a kick up the arse for presiding over the shambles.

It was one way back to Blighty pretty quick and with pockets full of newspaper reader's cash jingling in their pockets rather than a hole in the foot.

It's your money dear newspaper readers. Not mine.

What about that Grand National eh? It makes me so proud to be British.

Nobody else can pull off a performance like that was. What guts. What an expression of the sheer naked greed they serve. A work of art. What coverage by old Auntie Bee.

And my horse fell at the first. What it must have like for those who were on any of the front three I can imagine because I have experienced it.

If I rode the winner I doubt I'd ever go to sleep again.

Are you sure you are British? I thought you were Carthaginian.

Anyway good race, had to race (cycle) up the Lee Valley Park to see it at the pub...where the friendly locals let my tyres down when I was in the bog. Yes Britain is truly amazing.

If you are mixing me up Steve with Spendius himself I might remind you that he was the son of a Greek rhetorician and a Campanian prostitute and a dealer in women. He had been captured by Carthaginians when delivering a cargo by sea. Had he had nukes at his disposal he would not have hesitated.

Do you really mix with people who let folks' tyres down to get a laugh?

Good win for Man U, even though Watford put up a good show!

So we play at Wembley. Good!

My horse didn't come anywhere, it fell, my wife liked the name of a tree on a horse, so she backed it and won! Embarrassed

Yes, rather a childish sense of humour I would think, maybe thats it though, Kids are going in empty pubs, the skint Landlords welcome them with open arms and they have fun letting tyres down.

Wouldn't you be better off walking there Steve, instead of walking back home carrying a bicycle with two flats?
