Brilliant!!! Who is she?

Grawc she was worth staying in for to watch the Clive James show. She endearingly called him Cly! Every week she would murder another song. ;D
RT give me an Ealing comedy or a Carry on (same bit twice even) and I'm happy. ;) ;D

i really liked the first Ealing Comedy, that no-one remembers - Hue and Cry, with Alastair Sim, Harry Fowler as a kid (remember him?) and Dixon of Dock Green playing the baddie. Lots of kids playing around London bomb sites

Matron, take them away!!!

and while we're not on the subject - just what exactly was it the Meatloaf Wouldn't Do For Love? If he got a mate to drive over his head for a laugh, i'd have thought the Blobby One was up for anything

Beware the One called Wogan........

Getting back on topic - I think this video suggests that Meatloaf wouldn't sell someones underpants..?

"I'll Do Anything For Love
But I Won't Sell You Danni Minogue's Pants For Less Than £500?"

I'm sure that's not it. I was hoping for something more profound

I am a girl-guide dressed in blue,
these are the actions I must do.
Salute to the Captain,
Bow to the Queen,
And show my knickers to the football team.

Have you had too many cups of coffee Rhubarb?

I am sitting here with a cup of weak tea & a HUGE pot of lamb braised with red wine and veg on the stove

The lamb dish will take another hour to be edible.

I lost my potato dish at about 6:30.

Life is a magical journey

I burnt all my tomato plants today ???. For anyone about to do the same, when you pour the petrol over them, just notice the intense green colour the green bits go. It's amazing, like malachite

Mine are all going in the green bin for the council - won't be buying their compost. :)

Rhubarb Thrasher · « **Reply #70 on:** July 30, 2007, 22:12:13 »

it makes you think. All the good waste and grass and old compost goes in my compost bins for my compost. All the diseased or dodgy stuff goes in the green bins - for the council to make compost - to sell back to us

OllieC · « **Reply #71 on:** July 31, 2007, 10:45:05 »

But have you seen how hot the council stuff gets?

Nice weather today. A good day for a skive methinks.

I have a rather irritating ant bite just below my left elbow,the same one that gets a bit of stiffness ,thats my elbow not another ant bite.

Do ants get `tennis elbow`? And what about spiders?-but they are legs so I suppose it would be `house maids knee`

Thread duly hijacked-thread/spiders?

....and back to Ealing. Did you know that Johnny Morris played the part of the parrot in the radio version of 'The Lady Killers'?

Rhubarb Thrasher · « **Reply #74 on:** August 01, 2007, 18:25:02 »

how interesting! Would be even more interesting if he'd played the parrot in the film :D

Marymary · « **Reply #75 on:** August 01, 2007, 22:07:10 »

I used to live in Ealing, no parrots but plently of spiders - don't know how their knees were.

Rhubarb Thrasher · « **Reply #76 on:** August 01, 2007, 22:29:34 »

what was tennis elbow called before tennis was invented? or did it just baffle medical science?

I had water on the knee once so I said to the doctor - this is housemaid's knee right? He said No, you're a man, so you,ve got clergyman's knee. Those choirboys.....

Emagggie · « **Reply #77 on:** August 01, 2007, 22:41:49 »

And of course you know the cure.......drainpipe trousers. ;D

Rhubarb Thrasher · « **Reply #78 on:** August 02, 2007, 06:26:53 »

I was told the cure was a tap on the knee
