May I butt in with a remark with regard to EXTENT which keeps cropping up every six months ( Im sure Ive seen it at least three times). TENT is ok but is EX == OLD. EX implies was once but aint now. OLD implies was once and still is. My ex-wife is not old. And my old wife(dont tell her) is not my ex (yet). Any comments? Absolutely beautiful day here courtesy of Dewi Sant

THEAMBLER,
You've got to move with the times to keep up with the patois.

The above site is not for the faint-hearted but for a certain sort it is the equivalent of the finest leather-bound Chambers.

hello,

Can I take this chance to thank Terry for introducing me to the Urban Dictionary,its amazing.

And could provide hours of endless fun, for people like me trying to avoid housework.

I googled it after reading an exchange between the infamous Terry and Trevor. I can't get the definition of a Trevor out of my head, and that's good...because it makes me smile.

Which reminds me, I have not "nagged" for a while...

TREVOR...COME BACK...PLEASE...PRETTY PLEASE!

LOOK! YOU HOW MADE ME GROVEL, AND I DON'T DO GROVEL. ARGGGGH!

Yours with no dignity left,

p@

Kissypoos
