[amateur51]

In my younger, batchelor, days I found there was rarely time to discuss newspaper-reading habits

What has your choice in Bigga processed marrowfat peas got to do with it, Flossie?

Wow!

You called at her place to take her out and found a copy of the Daily Mail on the sofa? What should a gentleman do in such circumstances? The relationship had to be ended...

You can say that the photo on page 5 is just someone who looks like you but basically the relationship is already ended.

Wow!

Amsy, you could have warned that that damn Union Jack bow tie would hit you in the face again

Yes and it's made me go blind!

I'm rather taken by the chin, though - very butch, with a hint of a dimple


edit - I've just seen S_A's post. He's obviously as taken with the chin as I am.

What a mug!

Great to see such an erudite and focused discussion of the music played this afternoon!!





I can't talk... I've recorded it for listening in place of weekday morning drivel...

I'm British (or Anglo-Welsh) in a quiet, reflective way but I do react badly to anything related to strident manifestations of Britishness. So as I have a special section in my CD collection devoted to English/British music of the late 19th/20th century, I'll probably content myself gently and musingly with that instead ... . But for those who listen - enjoy (as our American cousins say). Me: "I do not like thee, Dr Fell..."

Indeed, that is the only way to be - quiet, modest, reflective upon the Welsh in particular as regards 'British' music.

... me too. It's just so - well - un-British.

I went out to check how my peas were doing a moment ago, and that is actually what I thought

So what are you doing to replace the weekend afternoon drivel?
