...took me ages to type it too.
Course you can't, not when I've deleted it, probably in the middle of your edit :twisted:

Check your email for the DICK family in 1861, not anywhere in Fife, so how do all those hours spent ruining your eyesight on the film reader feel now :?: :shock:

If you really want the original text, I've still got it ....... but speak now or forever hold your peace .........

It seems that the aliens I referred to before the 'clean-out' beamed down and abducted all of this evenings posts!

Just those on this thread, otherwise I might have been zapped from a certain direction ...............

Could it possibly be :?: :?: , - the first confirmed evidence of those d****d aliens who keep on screwing up thing for us (does that activate the inbuilt censor?!)

I mean, what enumerator in his right mind would spell Kirsty as Cursty :?: :!:

I ask you :shock:

Probably the same one that could spell it Crusty out of malice?

Can I hear the faint chapping on the front door? Better not be those fellows in black suits and wrap-round shades.....oh, it's the censors.

Help, the aliens hi-jacked the attachment! :mrgreen:

About Krusty. Hmm. I just thought that if Krusty (the Klown) was really a girl it might explain why he is such a twisted person - problems with identity, sense of self etc. - but maybe I'm reading too much into a fictitious cartoon character ?! :D Nah, I was just kidding really. (but, hey, a wee peek at the Springfield census might reveal all...)

Best wishes
