I was fully conscious, just a tad miffed at not being told this was a large group beano. I had been told this was an andy and targ thing so I was sulking.

Like a girl;)

Oh, sorry about that :~

No worries. Out this weekend for Schmeeelies birthday?

Plus: Andy and I need to come and use your projector as he has the box set of Eeeeevil Dead. Whoop! Whoop! Whoop!

Give Carolina shopping money and off we go!

But...you don't have a garden: you live on the second floor.

I have a *small* collection of plants on my balcony, mr.

Poetry and pedants. A match made in heaven!

I read this a couple of times before I realized that every other line rhymed, v clever.

I think I need to post more poetry to help you all out.

U. A. Fanthorpe next, I think.

I kind of like this one of hers -

Bloody men are like bloody buses -
You wait for about a year
And as soon as one approaches your stop
Two or three others appear

You look at them flashing their indicators
Offering you a ride
You're trying to read the destinations
You haven't much time to decide

If you make a mistake, there's no turning back
Jump off and you'll stand there and gaze
While the cars and the taxis and lorries go by
And the minutes,the hours,the days

I have to say that wendy cope is one of my favourite poets. Delicously satirical!
