Futtocks Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I don't normally remember my dreams, but this morning there was a brief something right before I woke up that stuck in my head because it was so incongruous. I dreamt I was on the set of a chat show, as Joan Jett was just about to interview Taulima Tautai. Very odd. Just as Taulima sat down on the couch for the chat, I woke up.

Futtocks Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Adult entertainment star Julie Strain's autobiography is titled 'Six Foot One and worth the Climb'. I'm tempted to buy it, just for the title.

ckn Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I'm having pizza delivered for tea tonight. Apparently I've been a good and dutiful husband for spending all day doing my CV and job applications so I deserve a treat. I did ask if there was an alternative "treat" on offer but I was told that I've not been that good 1 "When in deadly danger, when beset by doubt; run in little circles, wave your arms and shout" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I used a road atlas, I got lost. Not because I can't read them, but because it was about ten years out of date! Mind you, I've never used satnav and I don't intend ever to use it, either. Nowadays, I use the AA route planner and use it to print maps of any tricky sections.

Nowadays, I use the AA route planner and use it to print maps of any tricky sections. Stone age. Sat navs are great. I was like you until I tried one. If you're alone they're much more convenient and safer. However, I do usually pre plan any route I'm not familiar with on Google Maps before setting out.

MattSantos Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Singapore National Day today. I'm in the office with a wonderful view of the harbour. The Flag of Singapore consists of two horizontal halves, red above white. Red symbolises universal brotherhood and equality of man; white stands for pervading and everlasting purity and virtue. In the upper left corner, a white crescent moon and five white stars form a circle. The five stars stand for the ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality. Equality of man?
