Joe Jonas is such a good-looking boy and I'm sure he knows his own mind and stands by his convictions. But I'm just not on his wave-length at all. That nasty synastry combination just spells out how I think ~ Why? We don't have a religious right in England. The English are heathens. I said this to our priest, my friend (not English) was quite shocked but the priest nodded. He's got a tough job. Mass with 3 old people and a protestant of Ulster extraction (me). I remember as a kid seeing groups of people singing loudly and bashing tambourines in the High Street whilst I hung around waiting for my mother to finish selecting potatoes and celery on the market stall. I found it scary. There's something about them gives me a cold feeling down my neck I was raised in free church and sometimes they slide a little in that direction. They have that manic look in their eyes. But only a few. This is England. There's not many people lose that cyncial glint. Mr bm isn't a believer.

You mean famous people? Because there was this man at the bus stop last week, I told myself not to look in his eye. From a distance, a bit weird, but my cup of tea. Looked like mr bm, just taller. I kept walking. This happens to most people, doesn't it? Not all the time but often enough. Not sure about through the layers of film and T.V interview. But, maybe.

Hey ZalaI'm looking forward to seeing RDJ as Holmes. My favourite Holmes, so far, belongs to Michael Caine in the movie Without A Clue. Too funny! IP: Logged |

Advice written for Kate Moss http://women.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/women/relationships/article4901715.e ce ... don't date quote:
Non-Brits. You need irony, silliness and a bit of decadence to keep you amused, all of which are in plentiful supply here, less so abroad.
..and the superb retort from Sven, living in Leeds: quote:
Very funny, non-Brits. All English girls that I know prefer continentals. Maybe that has to do with the fact that we got style, can behave, tend not vomit and fight between 2 and 3 on a Saturday morning, are less obese and more caring. How about that?
Mr bm is in fact a Continental type, and has made a similar comment about modern Englishmen not being disimilar from the brawling drunken Saxon yobs of a thousand years ago. We live opposite two pubs. So we have good reason to know Sven isn't exaggerating about the street vomit. Never seen mr bm sick on drink. Ever. He tank it down though.

bmPerhaps it has more to do with the beverage being consumed than the quantity or timing or nationality of the drinker? IP: Logged |

bmWe lived near a pub at our last home and I have become well versed at they typical 2am conversation between drunks. It goes something like this: "**** you"
"Aye, **** you"
"No, **** you"

In the summer we hear plenty of 'eff you, you effin' beatch, what do you want from me' and chasing down the street. It can be quite entertaining. Of course individuals vary but there are different cultural attitudes towards drinking. Also, I think it's reasonable to say that habitude shows up ~ I've done family Christmas in France and it showed up who had been drinking a glass of wine with their dinner since the age of 8. Not me. It's no secret that there is a hard core of English people that like to get drunk and behave like yobs. Not all of them, obviously. Actually I am half English, half Irish. Two different cultures with different attitudes towards drink. For the Celts it is more a serious matter. I've been to funerals where I've been asked what I want to drink ~ there was every kind of tipple you could name except for (of course) Champagne. This is very odd for a French person, this is not what they would have expected at a wake. Or indeed, what the English would expect. IP: Logged |

Voice ~ got to say I like to hear a nice speaking or singing voice. I think that is another aspect of Mercury in the 7th. Back in the day I flatshared with a friend who was singing around the house. I praised his voice and so he turned up the volume breaking into song every now and then. Very nice. Also handy as we found ourselves in a pub in Connemara where a local said, 'you're not worth much if you can't produce a singer', and he stood up and belted out one of his favourite numbers. Sean Bean does a lot of T.V ads here, his voice makes me quiver. I also like Richard Armitage's voice. So I thought I would dig you out an example, here is one:

Funny thing about drinking - i've noticed - is that because it is so socially acceptable and as a part of Australian culture, virtually a necessary, I always get the distinct feeling that drinkers are suspicious of tee-totallers.We used to spend every Christmas Day with my very posh Aunt. She married into wealth. And so we were the poor spectrum of the family. My father was a huge drinker. He could drink a bottle of scotch and still do the drive home straighter than the rest of his family after their two glasses of red wine. First would come the two hour long discussion over the vintage of the wine, etc. Then the ensuing (and seemingly never ending) political discussion. Every year - without fail. Every idiot knows you do not discuss politics at a dinner table. Talk about open warfare! I was really little. It coloured my take on family festivities and all familial and ritualistic days.

Politics is a bad date subject. Aside from the ex-I-can't-get-over there's not much to touch it. We can avoid it on our night out. Plenty of other things to talk about. IP: Logged |

I nearly referred to my husband as mr bm when I was on the 'phone to the accountant today. I stopped myself in time. Maybe I should spend more time working, less time messing about on Lindaland. Ah, we were only talking about the price of beer, any how. IP: Logged |

PA, Now, you HAVE to find this picture AMAZINGLY, ASTONISHINGLY, ABSURDLY ATTRACTIVE. You cannot tell me that your Mars in Taurus isn't flaring up like a bad case of poison ivy! Breathe meta... breaaaaathe... I can accept that you do not care for Ralph, but to not be irrevocably in love with Daniel Day-Lewis is... illegal. Just plain illegal. Look at that hair, so long and thick and messy. And the dark coat, and the scrumptuous scruff, and the beautiful silver necklace tangled in the wild bed of chest hair, and the, and the, and the! Didn't i always tell you i wanted a gypsy? HE is a gypsy. Body and soul. I've been bewitched. *tongue flops out* IP: Logged |
