@ Orinoco -- don't you just hate it when your OWN pictures have started to fade like this?
Then you feel REALLY old (well, I do).
I wonder if the burned-out white look is from the fading or from very bright daylight. more»
Those random university buildings are the pits. You never know what you're going to get taught in there, or even if it'll be in the same place again tomorrow.
And you can't trust anyone who has a random university degree. more»
@ Geek and Nightingale and Journalist -- I agree -- the writer doth protest too much. 'I thee adore' indeed! Pah. more»

Thought Basil and I were the only ones who were missing something. more»
Some guy living near here has pet ferrets. He is often on the station platform (or on the train) with one on a dog-lead and the other one hiding in the hood of his anorak. Passers-by mostly think they're sweet but occasionally get spooked by them. more»
Noelle!
Didn't recognize you without your smile.
So glad you got your new glasses so you don't have to screw your face up like this any more. more»
Ooh!
If I leave an item out, will it get tossed tomorrow? heh heh. more»
Ahh...
Whinge, moan, nag, criticize, threaten, ultimatum, be rude about the family...
*rrrrip*
Well done, Mario. more»
Sweeeeet! more»
I used to have one of those! And it was red! You wore it under a V-neck black pullover to make people think you were wearing a red polo-neck underneath. more»
Hmmm... do kids really write S's backwards? Though why would anyone fake this? more»
HGGS was the Girls' Grammar School up the hill when I were a lad.
I always fancied a job as the HGGS Kiss Robot but somehow they weren't interested (well, a few of them in private occasionally maybe). more»
PS @ Nightingale -- thanks for that trip down memory lane! I'd forgotten all our comments back then (including our much missed chum). more»
OvCOARSE it's a fake telegram. But it's not a fake Find if Robin found it in a book.
Funnily enough I was just looking at the state of my income and thinking I could use a few of these! more»
To be sung to the tune of
Hey
You
Get off-a my Cloud!
by an ageing Rolling Stone who is now more concerned about the cleanliness of his neighbourhood than about knocking over young ladies or providing an alpha-male role model for schoolboy rockers in black leather. more»
Amazing book. more»
I never knew there were such things as professional skunk portrait photographers. more»
I was one too, in another life.
I once pointed out something factual to a Very Important Person and he told me off for being pedantic.
I replied 'Of course I'm pedantic -- it's my job'. more»
What is odd is that I just checked out the original Find (thanks for the link, Chromey) and I sure as hell remember commenting on it -- at length -- at the time, but my comments aren't there any more. more»
Modesty Blaise!
Orinoco, you are a genius. Had forgotten about her after all this time. more»
