Lastly. Is Stuart Murdoch gay? Just being curious thats
all, nothing funny, but is he?
Most of the time he sounds quite miserable, but there is the odd outbreak of gaiety from time to time.
Years and years ago, we referred to a homosexual friend as "gay" in front of my grandmother, who apparently filed that piece of updated vocabulary away. After an outing of the church ladies (to a winery!?), she told us how all the other women were discussing the trip and kept saying it had been "such a gay day!" Gram was quite pleased with herself for knowing the "new" meaning of the word, and had chuckled to herself all the way home. Of course, Gram used to refer to her new neighbor as "a hanger." It took us quite a while to figure out that she meant "hooker" -- and she was embarrassed to learn what it meant... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

My Gran calls synchronised swimming 'sequenised swimming'. Far more appropriate.
