@Izzie,
Aww thats really nice. I may indeed take you up on that. Never met anyone from a2k yet. Where you live looks really nice. Do you live near the river Exe? I've kayaked down that. And lived in castle drogo grounds as a medievil person for a week. That was good fun xxx

@The Pentacle Queen,
No..... I live on a tributary of the River Lyd - rivers everywhere here. Quiet and calm. Really, you are most welcome to come stay ANYTIME... there's a Brit here who can vouch for me - he knows me..... just let me know, days notice.... no worries! Serious offer.... not just words hun. No offense if you can't come. xxx

Okay I've read that lot and I don't know which or what to respond to.
All that girl talk is baffling.
Nice pictures of ice, though. But it's wintertime, what you expect, butterflies?
Bernie likes us so much he embellishes our names with exxtra lletters.
I don't think Marks & Sparks will go to the wall. They dress me, they can't.

Today I'm going into town for lunch, a curry with Cliff.
Where's Steve gone?
Nonsequiturs R Us

I'm going to post a picture of me n Bernie and me n Fiona

Okay I lied, I can't find the ones I'm after. I like this one too, though.

@Walter Hinteler,
Apropos Manchester:
On the way to the Carrington training ground, Ronaldo crashe with his car this morning (not a Corsa or Fiesta):

"The police gave him a breathalyser test and it came up negative."

At 10.20am and on his way to the training. What a surprise. Wink

Here I am. Verbiage curtailed recently for some reason. Probably the weather.

@Mame,
Oh- I don't know Mame, you little temptress you.

I reckon Mac dyes his hair and sports the casual style to try to mitigate the overall effect. Hey--that's a good pun. I didn't see it myself at first. It just goes to show that inspiration is not a conscious thing.

I don't think it's a wig. Or a mop.

And those film-star chompers, and Mac can chomp, he's always on about food, look a bit creative.

I wouldn't say he has a double chin but you can make out where one will appear when it does when I have persuaded him, shown him the light so to speak, that taking it easy is good for the mind.

And the shirt. I'll assume it was chosen for what was obviously a prepared pose. Lola wasn't looking at the clock after a big nite with the movers and shakers in Portland. An unprepared pose it wasn't. It's general effect is consistent in that it forces the viewer's attention onto the beautiful Lady on Mac's left around whom he has so patriarchally placed his paw.

Oh-the advert. Flags up a literary gent to all who notice it. And an independent one no less.

Shove your conk over the parapet Mac and if nobody takes shots at you it's because they don't take you seriously.

@spendius,
Partly right, Spendy, there's usually a lode of truth in your observations. I was keen to bathe in the resplendence of my dazzling companion, and who can blame me?

I'll get the other pictures (I know you're not holding your breath) when Fiona gets back from the theatre- they're in her files, I remembered earlier.

@Steve 41oo,
We all are Steve. That's why we engage in this mad tomfoolery on here. To escape from it.

Thanks for reminding us.

@McTag,
Is Bernie bald Mac? He always has a cap on.

He looks quite fit though I must say. As you do. And all your smiles are lovely. There's no other word.

You would be no good on the Grimacing and Grit your teeth thread.

The fifth morning with temperatures below -15° - just now (11 o'clock): -12.8°.

And like any of the last days: the hot-air balloon started for a ride (seen from my window)

@Walter Hinteler,
Just be glad your not a student and therefore can afford heating.

How do you explain to a two year old that a couple of random snowflakes isn't enough to build a fully fledged snowman?
