	'They' at GR obviously never bothered reading it - unless they have a 'thing' against carpet beetles :-( I hope the RR'r is proud to have got such an informative thread deleted!

	I mentioned the royal funeral and what a lovely reading it was and that I thought God must have had a bit of time on his hands to have made all those things, icicles, rainbows and all the other stuff mentioned. While I was thinking that I realized that I was pulling bits of cut up knickers and pyjamas through a bit of sacking. Who might have time on their hands? I did mention what a very fitting voice the dean of Windsor had for a funeral.

	Ha Sharron, all on here have time on their hands or we just like a chat. ;-) :-D So, is the thread you're referring to the same thread that just had your first comments reported? If so, someone doesn't like many of our comments! Of course this will be the second one in a day or two for you - once the RRer picks himself up from the floor at the mere mention of knickers! ;-) :-D

	JoyLouise, Sharron did do a typo on the first vowel of the word 'knickers' the second time she mentioned the undergarments. O - what a shock! :-D

	If I read something that I don't like or that offends me I just scroll past so if anyone wants to offend me they have to try really really hard and will fail anyway.

	Oh Sharron you mean you won't report me shock horror, but seriously I would rather you did tell me.

	I reported myself by mistake once. I hadn't even told me what I didn't like!

	:-D :-D :-D Brain cells went on strike, did they, Sharron? Mine often go AWOL or off at a tangent and I have to leave them to find their way home. :-0
