That's the one. Not sure what made me think of it apart from all the noticeable Leeds locations. Anyway, I even bought one of Bix's albums on the strength of the soundtrack.

I think so.

I'm trying to be very EBG clairvoyant peering through the mists of time ...

Indeed. Wasn't the first one mid 80s and the second early 90s, cos from what I can recall, my personal circumstances had changed dramatically in between.

Nah, keep submitting without checking. Hopefully it brings a smile to some folks' faces as the tumbleweed blows through Heartland on a dreary monday afternoon ... :wink:

that would be nice.... i'd love to see it again.

see how easy it is to get a bloke to do something for you?
emily strikes. hard, fast, and runs away.

Hell, if you're really considering coming all the way up from Norfolk to see the Smurphs on Saturday, I think it's the least I can do.

i AM considering it. its getting mr strange to drive me there.... its harder to get him to do things. he's immune to my blandishments sometimes.
i'd come on my own but need to top up brownie points after two darkness gigs and a trip to paris in one week.

Mrs T would be nodding her head if she were reading this. She's only letting me out to play this week cos I've promised to block up the hole in our fireplace which has been there since we had our central heating replaced last Autumn.

i feel for her... last AUTUMN?

It's not as bad as it sounds. There's a bit of plaster board in front of it. But she spends all day watching UK Living and wishing she'd married someone who's a bit more convincing with a drill.

does she want to borrow mr strange? he's good with his hands.
and i DID read that before posting.
pass her my sympathies...

I'm sure she would. She's already tried swapping me with the neighbours.

Posted: 08 Mar 2004, 16:28
by emilystrange
depends who the neighbours are... i've got the best deal on my street IMO

So have I. Most of the other blokes I know spend half their weekends up a ladder.
