Hello Grumpies! What's up? What's new? How's everybody?

Don't we have an anniversary 'round about this time of year? Does anyone know that exact date and year we came together?

Just noticed how many question marks I've used.

Iggy: I admire the way you've honoured your late relllie. If someone said half as nice stuff as you said about me when I'm gone I'd be happy.

Good luck to everyone who's involved with exams. I know they'll all do well because they have a GOW for a parent.

Wow! That was a walk down memory lane. I can't believe we lasted 6 years. Remember when we used to have all those "triers" who tried to get us to get ourselves banned.? (I've learned that no one can get you banned but yourself after a time or two on "holiday". )

Here's to ((((((active GOWs and absent friends))))) *raises glass of PG in a toast* and to all the "triers". "We're still standing, yeah yeah yeah..."

Crikey! If I was a dog I'd be almost as old as Methuseleh. Thankfully I'm a bitch but no dog.

Just turned the channel over to it. I have a great love for Carlos. I saw him live a few times in New York (way back when I was a pup ) and he just plays and plays and you can see the joy in his face.

I'm stuck on BBC4 now having the most enjoyable evening for going on two hours in front of the tv. It's a lovely walk down memory lane. *passes joint to KJ*

But enough about the melons' love life.

Here, another exam down, two more to go - one this week and one next. There was talk a few weeks ago (started by us mums) of the boy and his best mate getting jobs of some sort for the summer but when I mentioned it earlier the response was a nahhh, or something close to that. I do know from previous conversations that, apparently, the minimum wage is a joke, so I anticipate this particular argument to be set in a political context.
