If you end up in the poorhouse over it, perhaps she'll take you in, in your dotage. :)
Greet her for me if you would; I remember she used to post here and there, eh?

I would be careful Idol:fear: He got stars!!, that has to mean something??:unsure:
No, just that I'm a curmudgeonly and slightly aged person who has whiskers here.
Idol and I go back as far as
he goes. ;)
Just going to look at London for a half day is ruinously expensive these days. I have thus far avoided selling any body parts and so far dodged all the cutbacks at work. However, I think the next round of austerity looms. Thankfully I am within spitting distance of retirement.
This was the young artist at work at one of those boutique outdoor music festivals "doing an art"....or it may have been a lure for stoned hippies as I think it was all lit up in the dark.
Apologies to those affected by the fact that she is encased in rubber. It can have a funny effect on some people. :ghey:

Ah, God love her.
Any affection she has for rubber/latex will serve her going forward - what with the pending pandemic and all. :rolleyes:
So, you have some maybe-spare body parts, eh?
What're they worth?

I haven't had them valued yet - saving them for a rainy day (metaphorically speaking obviousment....it is always a rainy day here...global warming appears to be global wettening.)

Holding onto mine for dear life, too. :lol:
That global stuff can't be trusted - right now, we're warm - all things considered - but it's only cuz it's blowing down south on the other side of things.
Weather is variable, and that's just a fact. :)

I'm a bit put out to discover I'm as old as Bigglesworth; always thought he was more decrepit than I - at least enough to afford me a giggle at his expense.
Fuck!
I mean, it's already fucking Monday, for fuck's sake.
J'Pol, how you are? :huh:
I am well, how are you, old bean.
Long thyme, no sea.

That your daughter has been studently, I mean. :D
I remember when she started out...
Years and years :pinch:
I was somewhat proud of her when I went to see her slightly odd 4th year degree show at art school (she specialised as an illustrator so the Jacques Cousteau submarine was a particular surprise) but was a little horrified to find that she had caught the eye of some highfalutin art school in London who offered her a postgraduate place. :dabs:
Can you do post graduate studies in drawing now, Les.
I think the wean may have conned you.

Came as a surprise to me too but apparently, so she tells me, said highfalutin art school only does postgraduate drawing no undergraduate drawing at all at all. :dry:
Although last time I spoke to her she was doing something with computer programming and underlying rhythm in the universe (I think). No 1 son was advising her on Al Gore rhythms or something else...we were in a curry house so I just concentrated on the pakora and let them get on with it.

Les, you really need to think these things through.
They are conning you for free meals and imaginary tertiary education. Is post graduate tertiary or is it ... what would the word for fourth level be.
It's little more than preying on the infirm and feeble, tantamount to bullying.

You are right! I am a victim of ageism.
It is an injustice! :emo:
