Some Questions

  • Why was the little girl kidnapped in Nigeria not given the same press coverage as Madelaine McCann? Could it be because she wasn't white?
  • If you go to a wedding whilst unmarried but in a long-term relationship, you will spend all day fending off questions about when you will get married/why you aren't already married. Why don't people mind their own business?
  • Isn't Jamie Murray so much nicer than his brother?
  • I don't like heavy metal/rock but really enjoyed watching Metallica at Live Earth on the internet. Why is that?
  • My window box flowers are looking sickly. Is it because they've had too much rain or is it because I didn't water them at the weekend?

-It just goes to show how utterly pathetic the whole Madelaine situation is. I cannot believe it is still all over the press.
-I HATE it when people ask things like this, or if you're single you have to put up with people asking why you havent got a boyf, or when will you be getting one blah blah blah
-Dont actually know who he is
-I missed all of LE so cannot comment on whether I liked Metallica's performance
-I would think possibly too much rain my be the cause?

On the sickly flowers -- maybe it was the Metallica session. :)

I'd poke the compost of the window boxes, if it's sopping too much water, crumbly too little. Failing that some fertiliser of some description may help.

I am always suspicious when couples who've co-habited forever quite happily, suddenly announce they're getting married.

I think, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Didn't see Metallica.

Nigerian child's parents aren't an emminent surgeon (who probably gets paid a heck of a load of money. I share your cynicism.

Thank you for your answers! Regarding the plants, I've decided it actually be to do with the way the flowers are growing - now they are all growing upwards and outwards (quite a few trailing species in there), there is more space between them, so they don't look quite as bushy as before.

mmm,I loved Metallica too on LE-I never would have thought I'd be into them,but they were brilliant!!!
Agreed with the MMcC story-its all so manipulated!
Window boxes-mine are half dead cos I keep forgetting to water them-I have Buxus in mine which dies so quickly-I have killed so many of them now.

At last, someone else who will admit to having enjoyed Metallica! I have, of course, since returned to listening to my usual wet indie or 60s pop though.
