    Obviously feet to die for. It takes ballet dancers YEARS of hard labour to get their feet to do such clever things! :cool2:

      Ah feet! I was once told I had Prehensile feet simply because I use my toes to pick up things, such as a dropped pen.

              When Am51 told us about his clever feet I thought of Charlie Chaplin, not ballet positions.

              Still hot here but should be dry [if it doesn't rain!]

                  for all you nature lovers - a plant has eaten a bird

                          I once had to represent two women who came to the office in T-shirts with the slogan, "Cover your boobs with Snopake". The manager give them a choice: remove them, or go home.

                              I didn't know you were a lawyer S_A. What did the women do?

                              Hastily, lovely day here but a tad too windy which I could do without.

                                Finally some rain here! My very thirsty garden and lawn are very happy after nearly a month without rain. Too bad for the folks who were attending the Jazz Festival today.
