Oh, I get it now. Caff, as in what Gail Platt used to have. And what Ian Beale's mum had. Me mum and I got a kick out of going to a caff in Wellingborough.

Booga booga.


jax, I ain't up to nowhere on East Enders. It went "on holiday" for the summer. BBC Canada website said to watch my schedule for its return in September!!! I've been watching. All I'm seeing is four (and I'm not kidding) hours of that car show per day, and four (okay, the may be up to six now) rotating episodes of Build a New Moneypit in the Country. And a load of suchlike crud, half of it made-in-Canada reruns. I don't know how much Holmes on Homes a person can take before shooting themself in the head with a nailgun.

Anyhow, before EE went bybye ... I actually can hardly remember. The postal couple were doing something. The wife of the guy who is somehow related to Pat had recently gone off on a cruise around the world with somebody's ashes. Good lord, I may not know the names, but I have always known the plots. Three months, and it's all leaked out ... The ugly ginger baldie was about 2 months into the separation resulting from the son's wedding DVD ...

AAARGH.

Landover Baptist is PARODY.

There really ARE people like that in the US -- but Landover Baptist is MOCKING THEM.

Aaaaaaargh.

It's hilariously funny. Read Betty Bowers. Note the "Homeskooling" merchandise.

Baptists actually account for something like 45% of the US population (I think they're about 2% here in Canada -- we have all those RC Frenchies who skew the mix). And the Southern Baptist branch are really like that. Jimmy and Roslyn Carter quit that church publicly after he was president, because they're right-wing racists. Black Baptists, on the other hand, are nearly as bad. Early in his primaries campaign, Obama did basically a revival meeting tour, and shared a stage with a nasty homophobic bigot black country singer, thus alienating every GLBT person in the country ...

I was brought up Welsh Baptist (Although christened Cof E)and I can honestly say that NONE of them to this day are ANYTHING like that lot.

Do you none watch East Enders?? Everybody knows him. Most people even know his name ... I have no clue.

He's ugly and he, yes, has ginger eyebrows, and ginger fuzz on his ugly bald head. And somehow, he has all the ladies swooning. Ran off with his kid's babysitter 15 years ago, has had serial affairs on her, and hooked up with his son's fiancée.

I *know* this is how you all liveover there.

liveover. That's like landover.

Oh well, that explains his sex appeal then (whoever he is).....he's ugly, with ginger eyebrows and ginger fuzz on his ugly bald head! Just my type.......not.
By the way, what does an ugly bald head look like?

JaneyCanuck

JaneyCanuck Report 23 Sep 2010 22:22

Pub burning down. Just exactly what I'd expect. Happened on Albert Square not long ago (my time, anyhow), conflagration in the Queen Vic.

I have been released from my keyboard for the evening, so I am going home, fully expecting that No.1 will have stocked up on Miss Vicky's potato chips, which he will have done if he knows what's good for him.

How does a Canadian say goodbye? I don't know. We say G'day G'day at the other end (yes we do, those Aussies only say it once, we say it twice). I'm sure Sylvia out there in Lotusland doesn't, but she doesn't count.

O revoir. There.

Over this side, we say Mornin'


and often "bye bye" at the end of the day ..... yes, twice, just to make sure you've heard it!

or G'night


M-i-l (one of those from hell) was visiting once, it was weekend, and we had been up some time, m-i-l walked into the living room where i was sitting

Mornin' says I

grunt

Me :- Mornin'

She:- Good morning .... with great emphasis

Me: I hope you are well

She:- I do not talk to people who do not say Good Morning

Me (oh h***):- Good Morning Mum

OH then walked into the room and m-i-l turned to him, and said with great pride:- I have just made her say Good Morning to me. She didn't want to, but I made her.



sheesh!

Funny you should say that Gins......we watched students from our local college slouching across the road yesterday.......the sights were unbelievable. I turned to OH and said "Ah, well, I guess Britain is in safe hands with this lot!!" :))


Booga Booga must be code for something out in the wild territories of Canada! Probably means she pulling faces at Fans!


Thank you for breakfast Sylvs. Must pour myself another coffee if that's okay.

Oh yes.......'morning to you too!! :))
