Thanks for the reminder Rosebud.

We haven't heard from Ozzy for a while.
Reckon he's still hiding in his wardrobe after last weekend's rugby!!! :'(
Or..... too much of Leonard Cohen has sent him into a deep depression!!........and he can't climb out! :( ;)

If it`s THAT good, does it mean that Curlylocks and Mophead won`t be on it?

MagpieDi · « **Reply #3 on:** November 13, 2003, 17:15:17 »

Ozzy .........where are you?.........missing your rugby babble!! ;D We need you to cheer on the All Blacks!!!
Can't let the b***** Aussies win this one!! :o

P.S. commiserations Hugh ........you were unlucky!! ;)

You must have your wires crossed somewhere my dear pica pica (although I don`t really believe that you have a black tail and white tum). I am born and bred English - although my remoter ancestry is a bit polyglot.

And we definitely DON`T want Ozzy babbling on this one - every side he says is going to win promptly loses, including his own.

Thank you Rosebud! I put it on my calender. It will be on one of the BBC channels right? We can get beeb one and two here on the cable in Holland.

i'll set the video for that one so that when i'm feeling snowed under i can watch it and think wonderful allotment thoughts! thanks for letting us know

Ina, it will be shown on BBC 2. I shall be taping it. If you have any problems, let me know via "instant messages" and I will send you a copy. Contact me before the event, if you can, as I have two tape recorders. (We've got two wheelbarrows too !!!)

Oops...apologies Hugh!! ::) I thought it was you cheering on the Taffies!!
Pica pica..........I like it!! Much more attractive than a Corvus!! Sadly, I don't have their striking plumage, nor do I chatter and jump about in branches, but I am inclined to hoard!! ;) ;D
Very common species.........in fact ......you can observe a gathering of 52,000 on Saturdays in St James's Park!!!! ;) ;D

Hi Ozzy long time no speak.How are you and how is the lottie doing? ::) ;D.All the beebies seem to have gone in different directions some have disappeared altogether :(
enjoy the rugby !!!!!!!! on saturday.OZ would you give me the web site of that MOON thing you gave me a while ago for SCORPIO please .thank you :D cheers Rosebud :) ;).

Hugh_Jones · « **Reply #10 on:** November 14, 2003, 01:42:18 »

Really pica pica, I`m surprised that you should suggest a visit to St. James Park to find a gathering of 52,000 of the species - there seem to be more than that on the `Geordies` thread already - and as for chattering...?

And OZZY, I`m afraid that your identification of species is as awry as your forecasting of rugby matches, and I have 3 generations of English born and bred to prove it. Mind you, before that was a very polyglot mixture of (North) Welsh miners and Hellfire Welsh preachers, not to mention a generous helping of Highland Scottish and a smattering of Norfolk. And no, I don`t `tappity tap` to Land of My Fathers - it isn`t sung in 3/4 time, so it would be most inappropriate.Besides, the only people I ever hear singing it are the South Welsh, who can`t speak their own language. Whatever would Llywellyn the Great have thought of that?

Hugh_Jones · « **Reply #11 on:** November 14, 2003, 02:37:50 »

oZzY, I don`t want to worry you, but 1,000 years ago the Irish were Danes (that was before they all moved on to Western Scotland and became Scottish Highlanders) and Pothead just ain`t a Danish name. May I suggest Potheenhead as being a more likely original - just think, the first oZzY built the first still and brewed that memorable first drop of the potion - and he drank so much of it that he could no longer remember his name properly - there`s an idea for you.

Please, PLEASE don`t back England. We want to WIN.

Ozzy, I fear you are too much the optimist - France are on top of their game and England are shite at the mo.
Sorry about the lottie.

Beer_Belly · « **Reply #13 on:** November 14, 2003, 13:19:20 »

I think England will pull it out of the bag though - but I think it'll be a close match :-/

Hi Colin,
You are too nice, thanks for the offer. I don't expect any problems, we have two televisions haha.

Beer_Belly · « **Reply #15 on:** November 14, 2003, 20:01:23 »

Ina - I don't think Colin realises that we get BBC1 and BBC2 standard over here on the cable ;) (I've got 3 & 4 & ITV ch4 & 5 as well but that's down to me having a dish) ;D

ina · « **Reply #16 on:** November 14, 2003, 20:18:32 »

Oh, but BB, I did mention that we have BBC on the cable. I don't know what all those stations you mentioned are, guess all British. I am just glad to have channels from many different countries. Really happy to have a Spanish channel too, got to keep up with my languages, it was too much trouble learning them.

Isn't this neat. We are on at the same time and keep chasing each other around the different threads hahaha.

ina · « **Reply #17 on:** November 14, 2003, 20:20:41 »

Hey BB, your scary picture is gone!

Beer_Belly · « **Reply #18 on:** November 14, 2003, 21:40:55 »

I can still see it ?

ina · « **Reply #19 on:** November 14, 2003, 21:55:01 »

It's back. For a while it was a square with a red x in it. Sorry for the panic hahaha.
