Ptolemy. Suffering crap. Why not Terpsichore?
Euripedes, my friend, I rip-a-dose. So watch out.
Swear it's true Muckty Nearly as good as Je t'aime, which we heard in the Arndale Centre a few years ago.
Is your bonnet ready, and your bloomers starched?

Yes, yes, bless my soul, I must make haste.
I don't like the cut price camera work and editing and the cheapskate props.

Not at all. One needs intellectual credentials to engage in the raw animal with no male chauvinist trimmings to tone it down.
One imagines that our cousins in the Colonies will be much taken with this latest manifestation of the fictional works of Miss Austen, when they have the opportunity to view it.
Is Cranford good? I'm sorry to be missing it, Dubai TV is true crap...

Looking forward to it.
One thing we notice about tv programs from the old dart is the poor sound quality. Its possibly that we don't have ears and minds tuned to the accents but i find I miss a lot of the dialog. Wife says the same. Its not every program just some.
Dyer reckon you can put subtitles on ferus deaf ol bastards?
I've tried to study it in terms of a communique from the enemy but it has got the better of me.
It's too slow and predictable. One lady in the pub said it was "gentle" and "comforting". Life in those days was pretty ghastly. It's sepia tinted.
Let's face it- all those young ladies were virgins and coy with it.
It's a long way from Jennifer Saunders asking the plumber- "Fancy a shag?" while swigging out of a bottle.
Violins at the ready boys.

I wouldn't know Spendy, I'm not as well versed in the liberal arts as you.
Oh my Steve. Ms Saunders was Sunday School teacher by the side of the real liberal arts.
My expert advises me that there are at least 100 channels available at about £150/ year each in Europe broadcasting pornography. (Quornography is the no meat option). The competition from new channels and the internet,he says, is driving them in certain directions.
Cranford repeats are on at 6.00pm Sunday evenings so you can imagine the how far back it is.
Maybe it represents an ineffable yearning for masculine values.
Pornography's growth has coincided with the spread of feminism. You must at least have noticed that.
Sorry to interrupt spendius, but here's a holiday greeting from the colonies.
the guy on the left has been reading too much brit thread
Only your posts, stevie...
Listened to a report on the radio this morning about a cricketer with a 'funny' arm and wrist that gave him an physical advantage when bowling, who is he? Couldn't catch it all.

All us cricket fans are awaiting a birth defect which produces ten-foot long arms.
Almost all top class sportspersons have some advantage from unusual physical characteristics.
The first sub 4 minute miler, Roger Bannister, is supposed to have had a lung capacity 1.5 times normal and that Aussie swimmer had size 17 feet which acted as flippers.
And the rugby team relies on the small number of tall bulky blokes with IQs above 85. A lot of female athletes are suspected of having strange appendages.
But great spin bowlers are ace to watch. Just having a bent arm won't get you there on its own.
One thing should be kept in mind is that a country which finds itself with a spin bowler as good as Murili can prepare pitches that help him when they are playing at home. I remember a Test match being abandoned in the West Indies when the ground staff got up a pitch which rendered the two West Indian fast bowlers something of a dangerous proposition.
If smorgsie had been at the crease at the time she would never have seen the ball pass her by, assuming it did. I know because I once batted when the British champion javelin thrower was bowling and his wife had a bit of a thing about me. I heard a hissing noise though.
Not that I encouraged her mind you.
I've more to say on the pornography issue, spends, but I'll have to save it for tonight. or Thursday and Friday - I'm on strike!
Thanks for the info on the cricketer.

you should try writing more serious posts like that
