People take soap operas seriously. We made a SMS-watch service for a brittish soap 'Coronation Street' to one of our Irish customers. The service will send the 'highlights' of the nights episode as an SMS incase you happen to miss the show or something (tells something about the show..daily highlights fitting in a 160 characters of a sms message). Anyways, one day the messages got messed up..the highlights of the NEXT day being sent instead. Oh no! You wouldn't believe the amount of complaints we got..

PPS. we brunettes rawk

Yeeah, we have a big, burly, rugby-playing half-Samoan guy in his early 40s living at the house these days - LOVES 'Coro'. He has a TV in his room so he can watch it without being embarrassed. Bless.

I thought my celebrity wife was a Perthonality? (If so, when you head back there, please find her, get her a divorce, put her in a box addressed to me and tell her she's going to a better life.)

She lives in LA and has for years - she doesn't count anymore!
Okay, okayfine - she's a Perthonality, and so's Heath Ledger and so's Isla Fisher.
And we're trying to steal Jeff Martin!

I'll get my vaguely showbiz-involved friend Scottie on the case!

P.S. - Google 'Scott Madej'. That's my friend! Almost-Gambit!

I thought it was about quality, not quantity? ;) Glad to see you'll be regaining your Perthonality status come June 26.

"I am now a brunette! Fully brunettey - no gold, no hilights. Darkest my hair's ever been."

Your hair was of the gorgeousness. Why the change?

Ohmygoodness, thank you! :D
Mostly, the change happened because a friend of mine over here is an apprentice hairdresser and she needed a hair model to dye. So then a flock of hairdressers descended on me, declared brown 'in' and slopped dye all over me.
Oh well. Being back in Perth ought to bleach my hair back to the normal colour pretty quickly. I'm rather enjoying being a brunette and feeling slightly dark and dangerous. ;)
