To Tramp - if we were judging on the number of plays in the last few days then the cd you sent me is definitely no.1 - I just didn't want to mention it in case everyone else was jealous and you were inundated with requests


To Graham - Thanks, I remembered Marian Keyes this morning but too late to edit

Too late. i want a CD and I want it NOW

Forgot to mention 'Saga of the exiles' by Julian May as one of my favourite books (even though its a series) - its hard to think of these things under pressure isnt it

Gadget: 'unusual' to you may well be bizzare to the rest of us - so we need more information to judge .

Moulin Rouge - love it or hate it, theres a topic in itself

Can we add a Favourite Paintings section as Im now the proud owner of an EMMA 'little miss cheeky' original

You cant tell much about people by asking questions like that - too General, Gus should randomly select someone to do a proper interview with (someone more interesting than me i mean - like Sheena ). How about it Gus.

[TheTramp]

Hmmm. Everyone keeps reminding me of favourite books that I forgot about.

The Thomas Covenant series definitely deserves a mention. Any book that takes a leper and rapist, and turns him into the hero has got to be worth a read.

As do the Julian May books. I first read the pre-cursor to the Galactic Milieu saga (The Three Coloured Land) while at high school, and have avidly bought every book she's written since.

I have enough problems spelling proper words, let alone proper names !! And yes, I do mean those.

...hmmmm.... OK - one of the more 'unusual' was on the lower level of a bunk bed. When another girl was sleeping on the top bunk. This was in her room and parent's house. And the girl I was with then climbed back into bed with her.... Perhaps not bizzare or unusual, but fun at the time.... those were the days.

Let me get this straight: There were bunk-beds, but the girl you had sex with preferred to share the top bunk with another girl rather than sleep in the lower bunk? Or maybe she just didn't want to share it with you??

[Bill]

Now steady Steve.............you're getting carried away here ! ............now if only I was an exhibitionist

[Sal]

Do you really want the details?!? Or is it more fun to make them up!

Not a glass lift, it was fully functional, and the building was 10 floors. Admittedly, it was an aging lift and was a bit slow!

Well actualy, I was going to interview someone from Ceroc Scotland for my Feb interview (still finishing off the December interview so may not be ready till late Dec .... with a pair of gorgeous young dancers from Cheshire) .... well actualy its Gorgeous Gus who does the interviewing ... he has a way of getting the victim to reveal their innermost secrets

So beware ... it may be YOU!

Well, :sorry, Franck did give me the pleasure of a good 2 inches last night on the dance floor of Deja Vu whilst dancing to "Dirrty" by Christina Aguillera - Oh, Sorry Franck that was "Blues" wasn't it?

Hey Sheena! :sorry
I just noticed the above... You're going to get me in trouble with my wife... How can I tell her that I was involved somehow in someone else's reply to question 14...
And before anyone else asks, I was nowhere near a lift either

Anyway, as I pointed out to you that night, I don't do Blues...
Me I'm more of a MAd. dancer as per your other quote:

Originally posted by Sheena
and even Franck was dancing like a Mad(ness)man - nothing unusual there then?

I rest my case!

To echo Dan's comments, I had a ball (as usual in Dundee), great dancing, great music, great company etc...
I would like to also point out (in case my wife is still reading), that I was 'forced' to go to the Deja Vu nightclub, my arm was twisted so far up my back, I really had no choice and, sorry Steve, but Madness was great, and so was 'a Fairy tale of New York'... The DJ was bad though, kept cutting over the tracks to sing (badly)...

Franck.
MAd.

Now steady Steve.............you're getting carried away here ! ............now if only I was an exhibitionist

If only Bill!!
