³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

1st today folks...

Hi CLP....thanks for my ARF last Friday.

TBx

Way to go Noah....sleep is sooo important, as I found out last night, having a really restless night, so feel less than 100% today.

Re the rib eyes...hows that diet goin?

TBx

Morning blogpeeps!

Will try to catch up with the posts over the past few days soon.

Have a very exciting day today as my best mate's gf is due to have her C section at 10am at the hospital in Andorra la Vella this morning!!!! They're expecting a baby girl and it's their first. My BM is 52 so this is going to be a huge life changing event though right at the moment he seems to think that itshouldn't make that much difference to their lifestyle... we'll see!!

It sounded like CLP & the team and the lucky winners had the time of their lives over the weekend. Somehow I don't think I'll be quite in the league to bid this year but it's good to dream...

Hope you all have a fab day!

Luv
Lyndyloo

ps... welcome to gillyboots x

Hiya

early blog today CLP - glad to hear you slept through - bet that was nice!

Feel a bit mank today but looking forward to perking up later - see my comments on yesterdays blog at the bottom if you want to know my frame of mood - its a strange one and I'm hoping work will distract me enough today

Super bp x

PS... congratulations on a "sleep through" Noah!!! -x-x-x-

Hi Chris,

Congratulations on your good night sleep and on having such a wonderful baby son, and of course a beautiful wife. Those maltesers sound very tempting and the rib eye steaks sound delicious!!

Lyndy - a baby at 52??? Is your friend mad!!!! I'm sure it will be the best thing that ever happens to them - but I think they are in for a shock if they think their lifestyle won't change. It will never be the same again- ask Chris he should know!!!

Morning all

Bit of a struggle here today, I think I need some of whatever Noah's had, as I got very little sleep, had to get up extra early, then got stuck in a huge traffic jam, and ended up being late for work.....!!

Need an early night tonight methinks!

JG x

JG....seems Noah was the only one who had good sleep last night...had glucose, banana, double machiatto...still not working?

TBx

Madi- tell me about it! He's got a very simplistic view of the world... it revolved around him :))) -x-x-x-

Morning gang!

Early nights were definitely the order of the day (night!) then! I was tucked up in noddy land just before 10 o'clock, and just like weeny Noah, slept all the way thru to the alarm at half six this morning .... and I feel

WONDERFUL

for it!

Had to get petrol this morning, my worst job in the world. I would honestly rather iron than get gas for the car. Hate it, hate it, hate it. The only saving grace is that the garage isn't a million miles from the Golden Arches eatierie so had bacon and egg muffins for brekkie. Delish!

Also listened to some "vintage" Madonna on the way in, so was singing along a top pelt. Man, I owned that space!!!

Ha!

Right. Work ..... back in a bit. Honest guv!

Like A Virgin Deevs
x x x x

Hi Deevs,

Glad you feel wonderful. I always love your blogs. I agree about the petrol thing, I'd much rather iron and listen to some music!

Madi

Hi Madi and others,

I would rather put in petrol than iron. At least I then get out of the house and have a respite.
There must be more to life than blogging!
A baby at 52 sounds nuts to me. means that when they are a teenager the mom will be 70!! Wow.
Definite headcase

love

Dee

morning all, hope you're well?

How I would love a real good sleep, don't really get the chance with working shifts plus the jam-eaters. still can't complain really, who else would love only 3 or 4 hours sleep after a night shift to be introduced to a disney or cbeebies character???? hehe

Don't really 'do' the chocolate thing but MrsW does so I know what you'te talking about bigman

Have a great day y'all, esp to bagpuss, hope you're ok mate x

Morning my friends!

Teddy Tired-Eyes here. I was at a meeting last week and apparently the other people around the table were taking bets no how long it would be before I fell of my chair as my head kept nodding - and I thought I hid it so well!!!

Well done to Noah for being such a clever little boy.

Hope everyone is doing ok, hugs and love to those that need them - Bagpuss, hope you're feeling better soon.

T xxx

Morning all

Early nights are the best. Me, I had the best night's sleep, not even waking when Mr P's alarm went off 6am, now that is rare!

As for Noah sleeping through, it's magical and yes, the rushing in to see if he's ok, and of course he is!

Looking forward to a girlie pub lunch today with best friend, gotta drive but hey lots of chatter, gossip and catching up - luv it!

Bit overcast here but not raining.............at the moment!! It ain't gonna stay that way, that's for sure.

Pen xx

...however there's always good reason to have an early night I guess!!


mange tout mange tout

Madi

Thank you. Although I am just me. Anyone who has met me, or spoken to me on the tellyfone will tell you that I am the same off this ere blog as on it.

Some might say ..... bonkers!

Much love

Deevs

B-s mum - it was high wasn't it! I had no idea as my friend had booked them & I bought the ticket of someone who had dropped out! So now I can say that Take That have cured my vertigo.

It is really alarming the first night your baby sleeps through isn't it. I remember thinking something had happened to my daughter the first time it happened.

Catch you later

Gingembre ..... far too tired for *that* kinda shennanigan!!!

Morning Chris,

There is nothing better than a good nights sleep. Or perhaps when you feel you've had a good night and you look at the clock and it's only 2am, so you turn over for another 5 hours....bliss.

I went to bed a 9:00 on Sunday as I was cream crackered and had been suffering with really bad hayfever all day. Next thing I knew it was 6:45 - wonderful.

³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ alone in the office today, so it's gonna be a long one!

{{{}}} for you Sbp xx

Hi Bonkers Deevs,

Just love your work!! Always the same! You are not as Bonkers as the 70 year old with teenage children!! Bless them, they might need it!

Madi

Morning AliB!


Madi - when I was in my teens, my best friend's parents were both much much older than everyone else's parents, as she was a "late in life accident". When we were 15 her eldest bro was an ancient 38.

Sadly now, she has no parents left as they died when she was in her 30s.

Deevs xxx

PS: not as bonkers as LadyGaGa either! x

Ah, Christophe...an early night...we just HAD to watch the new Torchwood last eve...both of us (him having got up v early to return from forn climes...well, Wales...indeed the home of Torchwood, but they weren't anywhere near Cardiff so...) having decided that we probably wouldn't quite manage to stay awake til 10...then realising at 945 it was proberly gonna be a TWO PARTER!!! We could have watched it on listen again or wotever it's called. The new fangled watch it another day thingamabob. Dammit.

Anyhoo, straight to bed at 1015, then had a really restless night. Apparently here be Thunder.

would like some of what Noah is on please
love
hazel

pess Christophe, have you ever tried steak marinaded in Coc@ Col@? It has to be the real thing (see whaddidid there???)...put steaks in an oven dish, and just fizz it over the top...leave for about an hour, or until liquid has gone flat...then sizzle to your heart's content...delishus...

Morning Deevs xxx

Dee- you make the assumption that my friend is the Mum to be... he's actually going to be the Dad. Still quite old for a first child but he's young at heart, fit as a fiddle and to be honest I don't think he would have been ready for a child before now. I'm going to be nearly 42 when I have my baby later this year so I guess I'm an old Mum to be too
-x-x-x-

Morning Big Chhief CLP

I did exactly the same as your good selves last night.

Myself and LovesYoungDream - flat out on the couch last night and at 930 could take it no more.

LYD made her way up the stairway to heaven and I followed with the obligatory water bottles shortly afterwards. A long weekend of BBQs, entertaining, chat & late nights had taken their tole.

Fresh and well this moring, though I wouldnt say no to another couple of hours . . .

Thanks again for the reports around the weekend - as a major car fan, it was as close to heaven as I reckon I'll ever get -without actually getting behind the wheel of one of those classics. . .

Thank you so much,

DtM

Is that the very same DtM wot bought Johnny Saunders a Guiness at the airport?!?!

Morning all!

CLP - even a non-car-lover like me has enjoyed your blogs over the last few days!

and that first sleep through the night is very odd, i agree! have done that rush into the room to check they are breathing thing myself and they just lie there laughing at you!!

I always SAY I am going to have early nights but it always ends up being 11pm at least before I make it! then if i have a good book on the go it's fatal -sometimes I think I should restrict reading to the weekends and holidays!!

there are things to be said for having kids at any age - I think you give them different things if you are older/younger. My only worry is that if people are lots older (eg mothers who have them by IVF at 60) the kids will have lost their parents when they are quite young adults. At 42 I still think I would be young to lose one of mine now! And Lyndy - 42 isn't old these days!!! (except when you have to run in the mother's race at sports day like i'm going to have to tomorrow!!)

i'm not sure that i've expressed that terribly well now i've read it back but hopefuly it will make sense to some of you!!

love Cornishgirlie

Good Morning All

I too had 'older parents' but what you gain from them is up to you.

I can't really see that there is a right age to have a baby....... young mothers do not have the patience for their babies whilst older mums perhaps tire easily.All that really matters is that the child is needed and loved by their family.


Having said that a full nights sleep really does make allllll the difference.

Can I add I have young parents - they are turning 50 this year - and they were grandparents at 40 - they can apprecaite their grandchildren at their age and have many years together with us kids all left home.

The downside is that when I am ouot with my dad occasionally people have thought we were dating!

Super bp x

Morning all, was last night the night if early nights?? I turned off the light at 9:30 last night and was pushing zeds not long after that. Woke up briefly at 4:30am to the sound of the rain pouring outside, then back to the land of nod till after 8. RESULT!!

Re the whole older parents thing, my dad was 52 when I was born, and took early retirement when I was at primary school, which meant he was always free to take me to school etc. He passed away when I was 21 and in my penultimate year of Uni, it's horrible to lose a parent at that age (and at any age) so he has missed a lot of my life (iam 29 now). But hey, as scantily said there's never a right age to have a child, think in the case of my parents it was once they had met the right person.

Right off to to food shopping, what can I have for tea tonight?

Rx

Morning All - rain, sun, rain, sun - as someone said to me this morning - is it the monsoon season?

Don't need much sleep meself but when I sleep - I sleep - and nothing wakes me - thunder storms - earthquakes - nothing!!

Choc in bed? Bad Christoph - very bad !!!

Heard from your BM yet Lyndy? Now he's holding his little bundle of joy?

Big hugs Bagpuss. Go try your dress on again - that will make you smile.

I'm home alone too AliB for a while - only time I get any work done!!! Talking of which...

See you all later

Beezer xxx

I don't think I would have had the patience much earlier in my life and I think I'm in the best place I've ever been to bring new life into the world... :)))

-x-x-x-

Hello all, just watching the torrential downpour outside, glad to be in here, even if it is work!!

My parents were in their mid-30's when I was born (10 years after my brother) which, I think, was quite old at the time. As many of you know, I lost my lovely mum last year, and dad has just turned 70. It must be hard to lose a parent at any age, as has been said, but I wish I'd come along a bit sooner so I could have them for longer!

CLP, a good night's sleep does wonders, doesn't it!

AF x

ps Lyndyloo, how are you and Bump getting along, all ok?

pps (((((((big hugs))))))) for SBP xx

R - sorry you lost your dad when you were so young - it is a difficult one. It is not really about age as much as really wanting children - If you want them you will make it work at any age, and give them lots of love.

XXX.

Flower - I was the same, although my dad being away at war for 9 years had something to do with it!
I then decided not to happen until I could be a teenager in the swinging 60's. Yay !!

Beez xx

Choc in bed very bad ..... ? ? ?

Depends who with luv!!

AF- thanks honey! Me & the bump are really well at the mo... enjoying the whole preggers thing at last :))

Beez- still waiting on news from BM

-x-x-x-

I did a Paul McKenna thing on food avoidance 3 years ago and have not been able to eat chocolate since.

One of the best and worse things that I have ever done, but heigh ho 3 stone lighter with out it!!!!!


Lyndy take care and enjoy your pregnancy.




SL

SL - have been reading (and watching) the I can make you thin stuff - good to know it really does work!

Lyndy - did you know that if you eat chocolate every day while pregnant you have a happier baby!!! Enjoy the pregnancy - it is a great feeling!!

CG xx

Morning each..

went to bessie mates last night armed with a bottle of adult pop - result was me not being in bed til gone midnight and then taking forever to sleep...def need myself one of these early nights you all talk of tonight!

Chocolate monster comes out every night chez Scoobs..currently bringing those new clusters from the C company..flaming lovely and moreish!

Hope everything ok with your friends Lyndy.. we`re all waiting for news now!

And as for being older parents.. age doesn`t matter.. my dad was 27 when i was born but died when i was just 20.. sometimes these things happen and what matters is the parents and kids have enough love and support in the time they have together to both grow as people.

Right..enough deep stuff from me..off to forage for an early lunch!

Hugs to all..

mSc x

PS - Lyndy..still waiting for pics of bump! Or have i missed them over the other side... will go see!

mSc x

Yippee!

Baby girl delivered at 11.33 weighing in at 6lb14 all bits and pieces present and correct!

-x-x-x-

ps. CG I'm loving the happy chocolit baby... will have to try harder :))

Scoobs- there's a scan fotie on my facecloth photos -x-x-x-

Fantastic news Lyndy..congratulations to them both!

mSc x

Lyndy - i asked my midwife about it when i was pregnant with smallboy (nearly 5 yrs ago now - how did that happen!).

she said research had been done on it that she had read - she thought it was "a few squares of really good chocolate" - i decided a pile of Galaxy or dairy milk must be just as good!!!

and well done to your friends - now the fun really starts!

who mentioned lunch??!! that's done it now!!

CG x

BTW - for the fans of torchwood - on Radio 4 iplayer the afternoon plays are torchwood - its been keeping me going all morning!

Cornish, I have to check most nights if the Badger is still breathing...just a habit...not that I've ever been in bed with someone who has expired in the night...at least not in this life! And not to my knowledge either!!!

Anyhoo, Lyndyloo, a big well done to them Andorran (Andorrian?) doctors...good job!

Love to C&S

ps Apropos of zip dip dippedy doo...I wrote another pome this morning. There was inspiration, but is too long and not really for here.

Ode to Spoon

How would we stir our sauces
How would we eat our soup
How would we take our medicine
Without it going gloop?

How would we slurp our casseroles
How would we munch our fruit
How would we crunch our cereal
Without it spilling on our suit?

How would we sip our yoghurt
How would we gorge our pud
How would we stir our coffee
Without it turning to mud?

Mainly by using a Spoon.

By hazel love 07/07/09

Sbeep, thanks for that m'dear, I'll put my reminder on...was SOOOOOOOOOOO good last eve...and don't forget, it's the last Dexter on Friday...

Am SOOOOOOOOOOOO excited...

pes, hope you're feeling a bit better today

hazel - love the poem

And I also check mr bp is still breathing at night - he breathes so quietly and I have a fear about waking up next to someone dead!

Super bp x

Hazel - loving the pome!! have you done any other odes that we should be aware of??!

and I always check my kids are breathing every night before I go to bed - Mr CG thinks i'm mad! - and like you have never known anyone expire in the night - but it's just something i have to do otherwise I can't sleep!!

hope that doesn't make me sound too weird!!

CG xx

Great poem - Hazel

Lyndy - exciting news about your friends - pleased everything went well!!

Love,
Madi

Hallo my little bloggie lovelies..... hallllo!!

Pandora Panacea here of Panacea Pharmacists plc, not that i'm one to brag!
Building up our chain, it was all the hard work of my late father Peewee Panacea!

When I say chain my dearies, we only actually have one pharmacist, but don't let that stop you from coming to me for any medcation or advice my little dearies!

Now Christopher, I just wanted to say directly to you my little deary, you are a radio marvel young man.. a radio marvel!
And a really mean that my dear!
I have not written on your most marvellous blog for a while but today after hearing of all the good charity work... I just had to my dear!

Just a marvellous marvel all that you have done for the marvellous Children In Need Children's Charity for the children!
I have been looking at the wonderful photographs of the marvellous Drivetime Disco Charity event and I find it a wonderful wonder Christopher Evans, just wonderful!
In fact a feel the urge to chub your little red cheek! And rather firmly deary!

And the wonderful photographs of all the sports cars, very scary, i'm glad I wasn't in the passenger seat my dearies, nowadays I find my scooter on a downhill section is more than enough of a rear end kick for me!

Good day my little bloggie lovelies.... just marvellous!

Sbeep...it's when the Badger stops snoring that I wake up...I don't even open my eyes...I just lie really still and listen...then he either breathes, or fidgets...then starts snoring again, and it takes me ages to get back to sleep! Even with ear defenders...

Cornish, there are various scattered throughout CLP's blogland...the Badger wants to send them all off to a publisher to be bound in a slim volume...and sell milyons to make loads of cash, and keep him in the manner to which he'd like to become accustomed...

grape peelers please apply here
love
hazel

peas, glad you all enjoyed it, thanks!

Christophe, have just thought re the 'apropos' comment...you could use the pome during your Gastronomique Delights evening on Thursday...as a Tenuous Link...

Pandora, good to see you again! All is sounding jolly in the land of Panacea...SO glad you are well angel!

HL- Poet extrordinaire indeed!!! V V Good have a gold star! -x-x-x-

Back again! (But also realised I have forgotten at least two things so will probably have to do more shopping in a bit, doh!)

Have decided on fish pie for tea tonight, never made it before so fingers crossed it turns out ok.

Fab news about your friend Lyndy! Does the wee one have a name yet?

Hope Tuesday is treating you all ok.

rosie, stir a teaspoon of English mustard in the sauce, just before you pour it over the fishe ...it doesn't make it taste 'mustardy' but it gives it a lovely little mmmm...

Am already going mmmmm...

Love a good upbeat posting. Poems too!

Have a jolly one all.

MTF.xx

Back from lunch..and have been doing some work..i dont get THAT long for lunch!

Rosie - HL tip is very good but the best fish pie ive found to make is Jamies..in the red nose cook book and also one of (not sure which) of his usual books... involves cream, parmesan and fennel and is divine.but make sure your potatoes are very thinly sliced or they will retain a little crunch that is most disconcerting! Enjoy your pie!

Right..off to do more of the W stuff..

mSc x

PS -great pome as ever HL - you REALLY should be published..or should that be punished... hey ho!

PPS - Deevs..where are ya today?please tell us you havent gone looking for the lights already...?!

Alwight CLP And Every Blog Operatative,

Bingo Star ere......

CLP - My goodness CLP.... the very last word of your blog.... I like it very much.... instead of Children In Need..... yuv changed it to Children....... INDEED!!!!!!!!!!
I like it...... I like it pal!!!!!!! I like this alot!!!!
The 'INDEED' word is spreading ter all areas!!!!! Everybody seems to be using this word..... I really think it's about time it should be recognised and INDEED, INDEED put in the next Oxford Dictionary!!!!!


Been looooking at yer Dine And Disco photos CLP and my fav iz the #34 one!!!!! A man in total DJ on air concetration.... a 'ope the controller of R2 iz seeing these photos and INDEED this one in question, aka the #34 one!!!!! PS Damn nice shorts/ shirt and 'at!!!!! And shades!!!!!
Still wondering about/ why/ the reason for the many 'white' Ferraris..... goot me thinking.... iz it that you are lining up in the line up a back up plan ter start a wedding car business if the radio thing goes ape????
Just trying ter analise the situation... a find it interesting.... analising situations!!!!!

A used ter like white.... in fact my dream car, or one of them, when a was younger- 14 ish, waz ter own a Diamond White Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth.... a just thought white suited that car... some colours on certain cars loook better than on others!!!!

Also CLP, glad all the cars came 'ome safely.... shame though about the burnt out clutch on the F40... probally 7 ter 10k for a new one!!!!!!!
Reminds me of my Lotus a used ter ave.... very similar ter the F40 except the Lotus 1350kg.... the F40 1100kg... so lighter and on top of that.... 349bhp on me Lotus.... against 470 or iz it 479bhp for the F40???
(What's 9bhp between car discussions!!!) The fact that both cars ave a V8 twin turbo makes them very similar but the lighter weight of the F40 and extra power from it's BIGGER turbos iz what gives it that extra acceleration.... Lotus 0-60 4.5/ 0-100 10.5 but the F40 faster at 0-60 3.8/ 0-100 8.6 and racing versions even faster!!!!!!!!!@!!!@! (soz all ter bore all with the in depth crudentials of the cars in question)
I'd love ter ave a go of an F40!!!!
A nearly burnt the clutch out on me Lotus accelerating too fast!!!! A used ter practice accelerating 0 ter 100/ 120 az fast az a could.... love the feeling of driving such a powerful car!!!! (PS Noot on the public roads of course) Still slow though, compared to an F1 car!!!!!
A admit a was nervous when a first bought the Lotus az i'd never owned such a powerful car!!!
It's good though ter be respectful to such cars... probally why ave never 'ad an accident or INDEED nearly 'ad one az a always drive safely/ within the limits of the car and the road conditions!!!!!
A found a goot used ter the Lotus and found it abit slow..... felt a needed more power!!! Proved to mesen maybe a am capable of driving a proper racing car.... sure i'd get used to it!!!!! Just wish a 'ad the money ter race!!!! Mind you wouldn't be fit enough ter drive in F1.... need ter build up neck!!!! Soz sound like a sad dreamer know, sorry now!!!!
Used ter arrive 'ome sometimes with smoke coming off me brakes and a burning smeeeell from the clutch.... time ter ease off before it burns out!!!!! Which brings me back ter the clutch going on the F40.... easily done!!!!
Although a get the feeling it's noot driving fast that burnt it out at the Drivetime drive!!!!! LOL!!!

Soz ter go on about me Lotus but ter me this waz a total dream.... sad but when yer don't ave alotta money ter get such a car waz amazing ter me.... i'll never forget the experience and 'opefully if things come good in the future, i'd defo buy another!!!!!
Just shame i'll never prove me racing talent, deep inside a think a ave!!!!!
Don't mean ter sound egotistical or a sad dreamer but it's 'ard ter live with when yer think yuv gotta 'idden talents but can't realise it!!!!
It's like golf.... only 500 quid for a good setta clubs but a 'aven't goot the full talent with golf... am awesome with putting/ short game but can't get the swing correct!!!!!! VERY frustraiting!!!!
Typical am a total natural at driving but it's 400k for a season in touring cars or millions for F1!!!!!!
Trust me ter pick the most expensive sport when am from a council 'ouse single parent family.... story of me DAMN life all!!!!!!!!

Seriously though.... soz ter talk too much about cars.... or INDEED meself.... sounds so bad, ain't it!!!!!!!
The important bit ere/ iz/ waz ter raise money for children..... and INDEED Children In Need!!!!!!
Great that nearly 'alf a million waz raised from all the Dine And Disco/ Mag 7 Drive...... worth every penny just ter see Jono S 'it the decks on the disco!!!!!!
A tryed ter bid mesen for a place but couldn't afford the going rate.... so just gave what a could instead ter the C.I.N radio marathon!!!!!

PS - Did the Nigel Bardon get through the event without any injuries?????? LOL!!! If so.... 'ow come???

PS CLP - A notice the Coburn noot white!!!!! AYE!!!
My advice.... CLP why noot pop inter 'alfords and get a few tins of Ford Diamond White spray????@??? It could be the world's only Ford White Coburn!!!!!!Glad ter off 'elpful advice!!!!!
A once sprayed the bumpers of me black 900cc Fiat Panda silver.... loooked wild!!!!!! Used ter deliver pizzas in it!!!!

PPS CLP - Also a notice in the photos of the Coburn.... the rear loooks very unlike yer typical Ferrari but like an MG RV8/ Roadster but more so like the RV8!!!
Goot me thinking.... wonder if MG copied the design of the Coburn California abit?????? Interesting observations don't yer wreckon CLP????

GOURANGA ALL CAR ENTHUSIASTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PPPPS Finally... one final thing a need answers too..... if there were 7 couples driving the magnificent 7..... and you CLP were on the drive too..... what were you driving.... yer F430????????
If so i'd call it more mag 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS An update on me mother..... she's outta 'ospital and at 'ome.... loooking and INDEED feeling alot better!!!!!!!!
Although she's on oxygen and steriods ter 'elp improve the smokers disease she's suffering from!!!!!!

Sh'es given up smoking so a good sign and 'opefully many years ahead for 'er!!!!!!!

In fact it waz 'er 66th Birthdee on Sundee!!!!!!!!!!!

PS 'ow appropriate.... blog #66 for me mum.... know 66!!!!!!!!

Sorry now!!!!

PPS Bloomin 'eck.... that iz a long looooking one!!!!!

Surely a 'aven't been talkin' about mesen and Lotus's/ Ferrari's for that long!!!!!!!

Tee hee Deev !!! Mr E. indeed !

I don't normally bother to claim expenses - can't be faffed, but if they don't get it right soon............... Champagne bar would be a good start. Amazing how many clients I have in Leeds, Brum, Bristol, Norwich............

Beez, with the best will in the world, Mr Evans is rather lovely. You on the other hand, are my evil twin soul sister!

Drats! I dojn't have clients. Have to make some up if they are tax deductable!
