Pretty kool :)

Unfortunately in my life it's very rare that anyone asks that question. I can ask my son for a cup of tea ..."

*Like*

Emma Flo Linda ... you guys are too awesome :) Thanx for the kind words :) Yep, there's a lot of smiley faces going on :)

Hey Emma, are you going to let us see the cover design?

Hey mrbooks, that is something to be really proud of :)

Good luck with the 8.1 and the "Charms Bar conundrum" Ori "Oy Vey!"

Good Morning Linda, thanx for the awesome Fall picture :)

Good Morning Flo and Eddie, I'm off to work but I'll be grinning from ear to ear and if you see a floating smile hanging around after I leave this comment it's because I'll be grinning like a Cheshire cat-All Day- because I just got my first 5* review :) (:

See you guys later!

Yes ... Yes ... YES!!! Yup, my favourite word/s

My favourite word is indeed : nevermind."

My favourite word is : Yes! ... accompanied with a smile :)

"Their lives" ... :) I know...I know it's only a typo, not a spelling mistake, but I just had to :) I'm positively certain you'll get me back :)

Have an awesome week guys 'n' gals. I have a hard grind of a work week coming up and I'll try to pop-in here whenever I can, just to annoy y'all with whatever colloquialisms or irritating prose I can come up with.

Oh, so when I moved back to the 'States' from Somerset, in England, my fave expression was from East Enders...Wassamatta!

Gotta luv it! Or hate it :)

's'not true, I've had em both and they melt in yer pants as well as in yer hands ... Don't ask!

T4bsF wrote: "Oh no - I don't keep them there - they'd melt and the dyes would stain everything!! :0))"

OK, you win, I have no comeback for that one lol.

T4bsF wrote: "....your S.O. ???? Significant Other???"

Yes! That's it! You're such a smarty pants :)

mrbooks wrote: "Yes a very disturbing saying. Or Dude I know people who use it for everything."

OMG, I luv saying dude, dude! And I also say Yikes! Far too many times :)

Morning (ish) bakatcha Emma, and I hope everyone here has a lovely Sunday too. I think I'll go to the park and have a couple of sammies/sarnies with my S.O. :)

OK, no, I mean ok, or do I mean okay? ... Oh Kay... Okay.

I have another one.

I hate it when people say "I hate..." Like I just did (I'm such a hypocrite).

I hate that, don't you? It's such an emotive word that could/should be used only when it's true hate as opposed to 'don't like'

How many times did I just say I...?

First of all I have to say I love Garibaldis and Bourbon biscuits but I haven't had one in yonks (I bet you hate that word too)

Sooo...ok here's a C/P of my previous post:

1) A word I hate/don't like is 'padding'...as in..."I padded softly down the steps" etc. I don't know why I dislike it, maybe it's because I think of big cats 'padding' and humans walking or strolling by the heel-then-toe movement, which isn't padding, it's logistically different. Know what I mean?

2) Something else I don't like is this 'OK' in a sentence. I know it's supposed to be upper case/capitalised but it stands out like a sore thumb and I want to be able to do this 'ok' with it but then everyone will tell me I made a mistake writing it the way I'd like to.

I'll think of some more after I've seen a few from all you other haters :)

Scampers is great, padding, not-so-much.
