Dear Chris,

Everything you write reminds me of British humor. Do you have a book published? Have you ever considered becoming a charismatic cult leader? Just wondering. I have a funny story. I was trying to get signed up on a website as a new member. All of the user names i wanted to use were taken. So, I tried the name Boogerface to see if the site had a programming flaw. It went through! And then, I tried to go back and change it and the site kept saying my email was already in the system, so it wouldn't change the name. Fortunately, I emailed them and they said i could change it once i fully signed up. The only problem is that Boogerface seems to be the only name in the world that's not already taken. I tried Murky, Misspiggy, Sugarmagnolia and Rhiannon.

That happened to me just earlier today. I tried every name I could think of that I could remember and then I just got the crazy idea of the name for one of my (potential) children--Alyxa Rose. Just like that, it went through. I swear the admins didn't find it funny that I tried all the names I could and had to use one for a child. It's--in my mind, anyway--as funny as a banana named Pear.

And I agree with Guinivere, Chris. You should have a book published or something. All of this seems like it would be incredibly funny for US consumers since most people don't know how to have fun and enjoy what life gives them.

I stumbled across this site by dumb luck and I'm having a ball reading all this stuff.

Poke people on the arm to get their attention.

I am a trifle disgruntled...about 'essential oils'

Because...I used to wear Patchouli Oil....then I was informed that the Hippies used it to cover up the smell of drugs.....

I have, honestly, never encountered the drug culture....

Our parents used to shake their heads about our love of motorbikes....

I still love motorbikes.....'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' yeh!!

Oh, Long live Bix Baederbeck!!

Constance - the Penines are a range of hills (I hesitate to call them mountains after our visit to Italy last year) which run down the centre of England. Known as the backbone of England.

The Penine Way is a walk from the very north of England to the South. Not going around the mountains......going 'over' them, following ley-lines and etc.

He wants to walk it!!!! There is too much 'up' for my liking.

We can also do the coast to coast walk....from St Bees in Cumbria across to the East coast..........

Constance,....I love him....but I am not going to do that either!!!!! Evil or Very Mad
