Aaaw, I thought you were going to turn out to be a closet Steps fan as well then smiley - winkeye

CHICKEN RUNNNNNNNNN!!!
Ahem, sorry... Rugrats isn't juvenile? It works on many intellectual levels smiley - winkeye Kinda...

So are you a big Harry Potter fan then? My mates and I saw it being filmed in Oxford so we're going to have to go and watch it incase there's randomly us wandering across in the back ground smiley - winkeye

*laughs*
So my lucky shots were all highly planned and skillful? Even when I kept knocking the white ball off the table in the first round?

Nope. New cheesy pop is obviously rubbish, unlike the stuff from when I was 16. smiley - smiley

Rugrats has none of the intellectual qualities of SM:tv (and very few of the rude jokes).

Well, I did get the Comic Relief books, only because it was for charity you understand, and I have read all the normal books, even if I did borrow my housemate's copies. You'll have to tell me if you do appear so I can sit there and go "Maybe that's Tink, or possibly it's that girl behind her."

Any fouls are obviously terrible luck and probably if you hadn't fouled you would have pulled off a three ball plant. smiley - winkeye

What cheesey pop was there when you were 16??? I don't remember...oh wait that'd be Ace Of Base wouldn't it?
*laughs*
Now that was a good song smiley - winkeye Mind you they're still around...
*starts whistling along to 'Life Is a Flower'*

Yeah, but everyone knows that SM:TV live isn't really a childrens programme, it'd blatantly have been banned by now if it was meant to be...possibly smiley - winkeye Besides Rugrats is for adults...and if you watch the film there are so many things that you wouldn't expect to be there, mind you it's not as good as the first film, that made me cry smiley - winkeye

Righto..but other than the charity aspect you had absolutely no interest in the books themselves? I wonder how long it'll be before they put Harry Potter books on the English Literature syllabus? I'm sure they'd be more interesting than some of the books I've got on my reading list!

Hmmm... I don't know how recognisable I'd be, I think it was the day after I'd met Jenson Button though so if you see someone grinning excessively and eating a cookie then that'd be me smiley - winkeye

I'd have done what? What? Hmmm...

When was Whigfield then? Obviously anything prior to my sixteenth birthday is also allowed, hence "I should be so lucky".

I notice it's always kids in the competitions, though. Do you think they have special security to weed out the students? Still don't like Rugrats. Perhaps if they made a film of Pinky & the Brain.

smiley - biggrin I heard that one university had translating part of Philosopher's Stone into German in an exam. Sounds quite tricky given all the English idioms Joanna Rowling uses.

I'll watch out for you in the film. They can't have filmed that much in public areas can they? You don't want Muggles straying into Diagon Alley.

Ah, now to really show off at pool you need to learn terms like "plant", "spin" and "reverse double" even if you can't do them.

Oh I'd forgotten Whigfield!!! Wow, how could I forget that!
*stands dancing round to "Saturday Night"*
Of course that counts... It's amazing how you can still remember the dance routines to such foolish songs smiley - smiley

I dont see how you can not like Rugrats...they're so funny smiley - smiley Maybe you should try ringing in for the competitions and see if you ever get picked? And then you could create a scandal if you never did smiley - winkeye

Y'know I'm really going to have to read a Harry Potter book aren't I? It has to be said that currently I'm reading "Finnegans Wake" by Joyce and so it has to at least start off clearer than that smiley - winkeye

Err..no quite..they were my thoughts too...who's Muggles?
There was a fair chunk filmed randomly in Oxford I think, round the Bodlian and stuff smiley - smiley

Oh..and do I have to know what they mean or can I just randomly shout them? If I sang "Spinning Around" by Kylie would that have even vague relevance? smiley - winkeye

Ah, but do you remember that Whigfield had a second song? Wasn't very good.

*Not commenting on Rugrats*
Appplying to Ant & Dec's competitions sounds a good idea; do you think I'm more likely to get in than when I applied for "Who wants to be a millionaire?"

Oops, I didn't realise you'd not read any of the Harry Potter books. Muggles are non-magic users like us (and the word is a source of much controversy after another author claimed Rowling had pinched it from her, however the intrepid journalist Dave Langford (hem-hem) disproved her claims to have invented it by looking up the word in the OED and discovering a plethora of uses of the word including early 20th century slang for Cocaine). I expect they're using Uni buildings as Harry's school, which is fair enough, but I always imagined it to be more Gothic than that.

I think you may have a long way to go before becoming a pool shark. smiley - winkeye
