Really? and do you have to do them or is it just to barter down the price?
4:02 am
Haz1558

You're welcome, sprite.
4:02 am

Generally you do most of them, but they should be little things. I think they will ask for some wooden steps to be repaired. and possibly some other little things.

hi andree
4:04 am

smarmy?
4:05 am
redturtlehead

sort of low lifey, oily and charming-ish...or attempting to be.
4:05 am
Haz1558

Smarmy - a boot-licking, obsequious, not to be trusted with a child's lollipop because he would sell it to the highest bidder.
4:05 am
sprite

yuck! That sounds worse than evil.
4:05 am
zoozzoom

hahaha..well explained Red.
4:05 am
Andree

and lick it first?
4:05 am
redturtlehead

Haz's definition is more spot on.
4:06 am
Atalante

oh he's foul, and embodies everything smarmy!
4:06 am
Haz1558

He is the ultimate politician, and right now, that's about as big an insult as you can heap on anyone.
4:06 am
sprite

love both defs. Got the picture perfectly clear. Thanks both.
4:06 am
zoozzoom

i hate seeing his face everytime he is on tv..it`s that slight grin he always has..lol
4:06 am

or to use a common babble word - a toady
4:06 am
Atalante

yes. absolutely. perfectly put.
4:06 am
sprite

*agrees with Haz*
4:07 am
redturtlehead

but what or why is toadeater considered a word in babble? I mean frog eater isnt?
4:07 am
Haz1558

Ata, did you vote yesterday?
4:07 am
sprite

I did
4:08 am
lynxxx

Look at the def Red, it explains it well
4:08 am
Haz1558

I did as well - truth to be told, I wanted to see the inside of the new school that was being used as the polling station. I was the only voter there. Tumbleweed might just as well have been drifting down the coridoors.
4:08 am
Atalante

actually, I didn't. for the first time ever. a, because faversham is so far conservative that only the death of 90% of the population would change things, and b) I'm just so sick of politicians. I'd rather show my dislike in numbers of non-show than vote for some silly monster raving loony party
4:08 am
Haz1558

corridors, sorry.
4:09 am
lynxxx

Voting isn't compulsory in UK?
4:09 am
Atalante

nope
4:09 am
zoozzoom

hey whats wrong with the monster raving loony party..there policies are just as good as the ones in forced by the goverment now..hahahaha
4:09 am
sprite

I voted for the Party of the Animals... more as a signal than anything else. Do you know what they used to store the polling forms in? A huge garbage can with a padlock.
4:09 am
Haz1558

The politicians must have got wind of the low turn-out because later in the evening we were treated to vans going up and down, encouraging people to vote.
4:10 am
Andree

we get fined if we dont vote, even in local council elections
4:10 am
sprite

voting is a right, not a compulsion here
4:10 am
Haz1558

It gave me a funny turn to hear Gerry Adams voice encouraging me to vote for Barbara de Brun. I checked to make sure he wasn't in the van.
4:11 am
zoozzoom

was you checking with a clenched fist..lol
4:11 am
Atalante

it's a free choice here. voter turnout is usually around 50 - 70% very ish. I think
4:12 am
Haz1558

Something like that, zoozzoom!
4:12 am
zoozzoom

it is always a high turnout here on the isle of wight..nothing else to do..apart from work..LOL
4:12 am
sprite

well I thought that garbage can was rather symbolic.
4:13 am
forwardbyfaith

te5,16 please?
4:13 am
Atalante

very symbolic!
4:13 am
Haz1558

The electoral officer yesterday (a man so bored that you got the feeling that he wanted anybody to stay and talk to him) reckoned that if 40% turnout was achieved yesterday, it would be a miracle. And NI is traditionally high turnout.
4:13 am
sprite

te + take a leak
4:13 am

te5/16 - old fashioned place for storing tea.
4:13 am

mine was 12 points, am ever so sorry

oh gosh. mandelson is now in charge of science. god help us all!
4:17 am
Haz1558

Paul Merton and Ian Hislop must be in raptures with all this. At this rate, they may end up running the country...
4:17 am
sprite

we'll see how many will be running from the country then
4:18 am
Atalante

I wish they would!
4:18 am
Atalante

I'm sure you could get much much worse than Ian Hislop in charge
4:19 am
Haz1558

I agree, Ata.
4:19 am
Haz1558

Ian Hislop is a writer, editor of Private Eye and holds the record for being the most sued man in Britain.
4:20 am
Atalante

and is very very clever, and very very astute. He sees things as they are
4:20 am
lynxxx

and obviously says things as they are
4:20 am
Haz1558

Yes, he's sensible in a fun-poking kind of way.
4:20 am
Atalante

very much so LOL
4:21 am
sprite

might clean out things a bit
4:21 am
Atalante

though Private Eye is well known for pushing that tiny bit too far. But someone needs to do that
4:22 am
Haz1558

We have a BBC programme called 'Have I got news for you' when a panel looks at the news for the past week and comments on politicians' activities etc. Paul Merton is a professional comedian who manages to go off on the most wonderful flights of fancy. It's a highlight of the week for me.
4:23 am
sprite

we get that here as well
4:23 am
Haz1558

I don't get out much.
4:23 am
sprite

lol
4:23 am
zoozzoom

yes i love that programme..nothing better than seeing people rip into the idiots lining there ppockets with all our mony
4:23 am
Haz1558

Is it a Dutch version, sprite, or the English one?
4:24 am
Atalante

It's the best programme of the week easily. Followed by QI
4:24 am
sprite

I meant we can see the english one. We have dutch programs like that as well, though not all as good. I think "de wereld draait door" is one of the best here.
4:25 am

I wish Boris would stop being London Mayor and host HIGNFY full-time
4:26 am

boris got a bit wet yesterday in a pond..hahaha
4:26 am

4:34 am
Haz1558

Yes, I don't see how he can stay on for much longer. In her defence, she had at least managed to win three general elections for the party. Gordon hasn't managed one.
4:35 am
zoozzoom

and he wasn`t voted in by the people either..so in my opinion he should not of got the job
4:36 am
Chris P

unfortunately, I think he's going to hang on to the bitter end and completely ruin the country
4:36 am

It's all part of the system, I suppose, and it has had its precedents.

'Doom and Gloom' were my aunts nicknames for her two miserable sisters. 'Oh, here come Doom and Gloom'
4:39 am

well i had an interesting day. just treated myslef to takeout at a new place and it is inedible.....hate it when that happedn, which is not often

wb, tor!
5:28 pm
hurshy

i got takeout too - the closest pizza place has some things good and some things not, i've kind of learned what to order, and what not to. for instance, if you want fish and chips, you have to order the deep fried filet of sole dinner, NOT the fish and chips. the fish and chips on the menu involves frozen fish filets like gorton's, which are really not worth paying someone to make you.
5:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

hate to experiment, i just was hungry and curious...they aplologized and offer a meal or a refund
5:29 pm

7:59 pm

no, really nifty. phage are capable of curing infections that more "modern" antibiotics cannot. THere are lots of amputations in our country that would be unnecessary in some former soviet nations.
7:59 pm
stidmama

there are other uses too...
7:59 pm
Pinikula

sorta like using leeches again, eh, stid?
8:00 pm

Min - let me know if I can help with your last word.
10:01 pm

I will post it sometime in May......
10:02 pm

May 2010?
10:02 pm

May that day NEVER happen!

Min - you can't look more awful than I do in the morning, on a bad day after The Night Before. Be brave! Show us your face.

Since I have lots of time to get my last word,I am off to play Pinball & some other games. Be back later on.
10:04 pm

I sincerely hope May 2010 comes around for me,; I've got stuff n the garden I want to see at the very least!

You aren't really alone Jac. How are things with your family today?
10:10 pm

Hi Bug - a bit jagged today.
10:11 pm
Bugsaw

Some days are like that when you have a big change in family dynamics like you have. It takes a while for everyone to find where they belong and that they are still loved.
10:12 pm
Jacula

Step has been left to her own devices for too long and behaves inapropriately for her 14 years, I think. After a week with us and at her new school, she now feels at home enough to start doing (what I hope is) her learned behavour from her Mum, rather than some genetic thing.
10:13 pm
Bugsaw

We call that first week the "honeymoon period"
10:13 pm
Bugsaw

My guess is it is learned behaviour and that it is not comfortable for her Mum to give her up.
10:14 pm
Jacula

The family dynamics aren't in question right now, since my son's away in Turkey with his g/f and her family and my daughter's not living here anymore, but visits frequently. However, I saw the couples dynamic between me and Other Half shift almost on the first day.
10:15 pm
Bugsaw

To me, couples are still family! (Please know I am smiling)

Suddenly, I'm the Big Boss and the Lawmaker again. That's going to have to change. I can't believe the number of adults who are taller than this almost 6' 14-yr-old girl who give in to her. I'm only 5' 1 and a half inches tall, and I won't stand ANY nonsense.
10:18 pm
Jacula

Hi Nut! Did you see my Squi_Rell pics in my blog?
10:19 pm
Bugsaw

As the step-parent, your husband should not be putting you in that role. He needs to be the one who makes the rules and metes out consequences. If you do it, even if you are right and would do the very same thing he would, you will find yourself up against Steph and both of her natural parents. It is the reason why policemen hate doing to domestic calls -- all the fighting family turn against the third man in.

jader was saying how you wanted more babblecasts, so i wanted to make sure you were told about the new show
10:20 pm
Jacula

Yes, Bug, couples are family, but we have such a wide family, what with all the families being brought together, me and him, his family and his ex's family, my ex and his family, my immediate family, his immediate family and so on. If you're all close, like we are, it's a huge ripple in the lake.
10:22 pm

Nut - what new show? And, if you've forgotten what I wrote in my blog only yesterday about the squirrel, you're obvously not paying proper attention. Write out 30 times, 'I must pay more attention.'

Nut, what do you mean about my strength being a truckre's mouth? I rarely swear. If you meant something more basic, NO CHANCE! Due to all the upset and the redunndancy stuff and his exams, not to mention not getting home from work until 2am yesterday due to a chemical spill he had to contain, he's come out with 3 cold sores around his mouth.
10:34 pm
