@TGHC - nope, not acquainted with him/her. Another grammar/spelling Nazi? :)

@Killer Wolf - I don't understand you! Caterpillars? And I said I *would* cap "Galaxy 1"...

@Roberto :

"I don't understand you!" i get that a lot :-D
caterpillars = capitals. just me being silly, the same way i refer to "partnerships" as "parsnips" because....it's a nice word. came from a mistype one day, "catipals" that sounded like caterpillars". also, i like fuzzy caterpillars.
"And I said I *would* cap "Galaxy 1"..." well that's what i get for not reading your mail properly! soz!

I'll keep an eye out for him - maybe we could team up and fight crime :)

My relationship with caterpillars is somewhat more ambivalent: I once turned on a tap to brush my teeth at a campsite and a caterpillar came out. I still get the nightmares... :)

Those hairy ones would be pretty good if they didn't wriggle so much.

They look like green disembodied eyebrows. :D

Don't taste too good though.

Although the hallucinations were a real eye-melter.......

why Felicity Kendall? is her's a different shape to everyone else's?
Funny you should say that, in 1981 she got voted rear of the year, totally out of the blue, since being in a green environmentalist tv sitcom, she was not regarded as a looker or considered as a babe, but on closer inspection of the erm... judgement, it was a damn fine choice.
