Positively guffawed in fact. Look at number 20 😆

Eating lentil stew. Staring with studied nonchalance down a recalcitrant toilet. Nitcombing one another in a manner that only women who understand hair can. Listening to 3 9+ year olds doing the “giggly girls in the attic” thing. Learning to jump off diving boards. Discovering that some cash machines only give cash to Visa, not […]

I’ve started a flickr campaign with Madeleine McCann’s photo, asking people to publish it on their accounts and blogs. Please help me get it started by adding it to your own accounts. Ask your contacts and your readers to do the same and hope that if enough people see it, then there is just a […]
