bethey is still at school, so I'll answer this one.  It used to be
Elizabeth, but she had it legally changed cos she hated it.  Eleanor does
have a Ocean Colour Scene tendency, I think.  My brother (13) does too.  How
embarassing.

I'm not really going to.  However, careless talk costs lives, so I should be
more careful.  It's just that this thread has been going on a while now and
I can imagine some of the silent list members getting angry.


Daytime TV has been fabulous today - especially Style Challenge.  For those
who are not in the uk/employed/got better things to do, it's a show where
two tired people come in and are given a makeover by a team of fashion
gurus.  It's wicked.  Anyway, today there were two postwomen on the show and
when one of them looked in the mirror, she started crying because she was so
happy with her new look.  It was a truly touching moment.  Maybe Stuart M
should write a song about it.
"Well, I saw you on that Style Challenge
You were crying at your new look into the big mirror there
the big mirror there.

Six months on, the clothes have gone.
the disenchanted postman
left his house with the postwoman
the postwoman got lonely"

I think it would be a new one to add to our list of sad songs.


Well, I'll be off then

I think I should get out more.
