Adele, I stopped blocking your e-mails three weeks ago. Even the Viagra and porn spammers have asked me to take your address off their lists.

There's nothing else for it, you'll have to go back to the Salsa classes to meet people.

Well I guess salsa would be useful if I'm going to Cuba. Off now to practise. One, two, cha cha cha, one, two, cha cha cha...

Only if you practice in leg irons...

... hey, S&M Salsa! It'll go down a bomb in Lundun! Get me Time Out on the phone!

Hey Adele,
President's Day is not such a biggie, other than School's are off. It is a big kickoff in the automobile sales industry. It marks the opening of the new model year and competitive sales from dealer to dealer. A sort of hysteria and buzz is created-good for bizness.

Cath,
good observation, very similar to the fourth step(which is self inventory of the feelings and actions of the past).

Beadle/Adele,
you guys lost me at Quakers.

Adam, think Da Vinci Code. Btw, have you read it? I'm half way through and it's so much better than some comments on this site would suggest. Why are people so bitchy? It should make a rollicking movie.

Hope you sold lots of motors.

Adele.

Beadle, do I look like an Iraqi terrorist? Actually I once asked one of Norman Schwarzkopf's security team the same question and his answer was yes...

Guys, get your eyes tested!

Adele.

it's all that ethnic jewellery made out of old TNT tubes and bullet casings.

peace out

Ads - I hope you're not referring to me. Bitchy? I'm hurt now...

The Da Vinci Code is WHACK mate - the characters are shockingly thin, the plot is AWFUL, the dialogue is terrible and the writing, the writing...

Hunter S Thompson just shot himself, and this charlatan makes millions by spewing out flimsy, self indulgent dross on a regular basis.

That's not bitchy, I'm being kind coz I don't wanna ruin it for you!

Soz, just had to get that in, it enflames passion within. Hope you can forgive!

Dav, no, I wasn't talking about you when I said bitchy. You seem to have great enthusiasms and passions. The bitchy people don't. They simply seem to wallow in negativity. It's very unattractive.

As for DVC, I feel like I'm learning things about a secret world from it. Opus Dei in particular is very interesting. I used to have a boyfriend whose devoutly catholic mother sent him along to the local branch when he started college. Most peculiar.

Off to look for more clues,

Adele.

Phew - you had me worried there. You know what I'm like Ads, I get all insecure and that! As for Dan Brown and his cruddy codes:

Yeah I know - the actual premise of the story is a great one, and there is loadsa interesting stuff in there, but the characters? Oh be jaysus, I'd end up strangling that feckless Robert whatisface, with his greying temples and kooky mind which enables him to be the greatest, um, professory thing in the world, whilst stopping him from ever finding real lurve. The geez even thinks in sterotypes! I'd like to shove his greying temples right through the Da Vinci's Last Supper and say "LOOK - THERE IT IS, NOW WHERE'S THE FRICKIN STORY NUMB NUTS?????"

Or something.

I'm in a terrible mood today, but I still speak the truth

Hope I haven't ruined anything there. You can hit me if I have!

Dav, greying temples can be quite attractive. Come back and see me in about fifteen years

(reaches for the Just for Men grey hair dye)

Years?

See ya in fifteen minutes...

Dav, grey hair dye is as deserving of a beating as nose jobs!

Yeah true, but this is the reverse skip, which I know is technically bollocks but thought it was a good gag.

still be there in fifteen Ads, but I'll keep the leiderhosen (exploding trousers?) in my bag.

laters all, I'm leaving cyberspace for the nite!

Have fun and play safe.

Long live Sir Kenneth of Livingstone - kicking it to the Daily Mail. Yeah...

COME ON!!!!

Dav, no lederhosen, no spielen . Btw I'm looking forward to reading your new book The Blokey Beauty Myth by Dav S Rantmeister. And with your views on Red Ken, you should get together with Blondie Boris Johnson - I see the makings of a beautiful friendship...

Guten Abend und viel Spass,

Adele.
