I am naturally *the* Gwennie. Besides who else could it possibly be? smiley - angel

*Accepts the shot of vodka from Pan in her smiley - coffee*

It's a shame about nuns and their lack of vodka, otherwise I'd give joining the cloistered frocked females some serious consideration. smiley - tongueout The lesbian bit is worth some thought though as I could still indulge myself with the occasional voddie! smiley - ok

Menopausal? smiley - erm Moi? smiley - flustered I have no idea what you mean WR? smiley - wah What was I talking about? smiley - cdouble

*Absently pats Shirps on the head*
