  The English weather and my holiday.............

  i finished work this morning for 3 weeks holiday and the english summer has struck again....... i had planned to tour on my bike around the south of england and cornwall, but after looking at the long range forecasts i've found out if i still do that i'll be riding in the rain everyday, not nice.......... what a typical british summer.

  its worked out ok though, i've spent all day today trawling round the internet trying to find a good deal on a holiday.

  so now instead of getting soaked in the rain in england, i'm going to be sunning it up in italy and capri.

  What?? you're swopping a night out in Cheddar and a week in the rain on a bike for that?? You sure you're British??

  I paid good money to stand in the rain and mud at Glastonbury and to risk food poisoning, naked hippies and dysentry from the toilets.....you should be ashamed of yourself....

  yeah im jealous.....

  does anyone know how to microwave eggs?.

  i tried looking it up on the internet but without luck.

  i've been told you can pierce a hole in the shell so they don't explode, but even so, i wouldn't know how long to cook them for.

  LMAO at you two...! this is like a 70's cookery show....you both got your aprons on..?!

  . Take one out the fridge each morning, shell it standing in my kitchen, smother it in salt and wolf it down.

  youve been doing that for a long time ball..youre gonna have a coronary before the food poisoning gets to you lol...back away from the salt...

  gadgets busy researching more egg dilemas...he'll be back in a moment after the break,,

  (((ah, thanks everyone))) Ivebeen in exhibitions before but have never had to do the opening night serious party thing before, hence the nerves ...but it went really well..

  The gallery was packed and everyone was drinking alot so it was really relaxed..I had some great comments in my comments book and we had a photographer to take some pics for the papers and art magazines so that was fun, unfortunately he was a red head and promotes any others he finds, so I had to be in them all at the front.....

  We found out one guy there was a well known London Art critic as someone recognised him so fingers crossed for some positive feedback from him...All my friends turned up and although they're not into abstract art , they understood what I was trying to do/say and we're really supportive.when i get the photos i'll get someone to give me an upload lesson...no laughing mind lol...I'm back there invigilating tomorrow so if any have sold i'll be out celebrating again..

  thanks for the support guys...im really pleased I did it and hope you all get to do the things in life that give you a boost after all the repression we've had in the past.

  I was accused of having an affair with an elder because I was 'too' upset when I found out he was a double-lifer and a pervert my husband thought there was something going on....know of a few elders who had affairs though and got away with it, position and reputation intact while the woman was vilified...the men did'nt seem to have that problem....they were assumed to have been 'led astray' by the tempation and were apparently unable to resist the evil, seductive, charms of the woman ......

  decided on the spur of the moment to try and get some glastonbury tickets yesterday,as there were still 55, 000 left due to the system cock ups... had friends who stayed up til 5am trying on the friday night but none of us had any luck, mind you, with two teenagers and a child it's the equivilent of a small mortgage...did anyone here have any joy?

  i've just had a phone call this morning to say i had sunday tickets , the ones you can get if you live in somerset...ive got a phone number if anyone want to try it... so; if anyone wants to meet up to have a shamanistic dance or two, share moment in the tipi field or help me negociate the toilet block..... i'll be around...
