Better than nothing, I suppose

Or something
Or nothing
I lose track of these things

Or something

It's too hot... I want to die about now... at least I'll get shoved in a freezer then.

TK[1]

But you won't feel the benefit!

Don't worry, it'll soon be winter and then you can be too cold instead

I'm rarely too cold.... oh to be cold....

TK[1]

I'll swop for a day or two....

I wouldn't complain...

TK[1]

Then it's agreed; we'll swop lives at 12am tomorrow?

Oh wait, that's physically impossible.

Oh well, back to the drawing board lads...

How much do we actually 'swap'? I mean, do we keep the same bodies or what?

TK[1]

Bodyswap sounds fine by me... As long as no meat products or by-products go into it, I'm fine by that...

How is/was Blackburn?

I think I can play by your rules if it meant I could be a fox for one day...

Blackburn was fun. The kids are little buggers, but charming with it. Bethan disagrees with everything you say, and cries if you say 'no' to her, no matter what the scenario, but if you can get her to stop gabbling for two seconds, she's lovely. Gareth's showing signs of being very intelligent, but has an inexhaustible energy supply which he uses on computer games and being a little S**t to his sister. They're both fun when they're not being contrary, and very tiring!

The zoo on friday was fun, but there were too many wasps for me to be totally comfortable. I got your message just as I was moving my mum's car off my Aunt's drive so that they could get their car out to take us to the zoo

As I've already told you, the drives to Blackburn and back were a little hairy at times, but we survived!

TK[1]

Sounds fair to me...

Awwh...I'll have all this to look forward too next time I'm in Scotland methinks. Although the little girls in the instace kept saying "why?" to EVERYTHING last time I saw her..Bless them. What ages are they?

Oooh...zooooo There's something about wasps at the moment, there seems to be tonnes of the things *grumble grumble*

That's the main thing!

More like

Gareth's 7, Bethan is... younger. .

Don't like wasps... want them all to die... or me. Either way I get rid of them. Unless I go to my own personal hell.

Yeah, a bit of excitement just makes things more... exciting.

TK[1]

No... should be . Either way, still a FOX.

TK[1]

I like that variation, though... But now I want to type "fudgey smox", which is just silly... Hey, I can't help it if I'm prone to Spoonerisms

They sound about the age range that's deal-with-able to me Sweet

Oh, I don't have a problem with them being alive, I just have a problem with them following me around. It's mosquitos that I *really* don't like, mainly because I'm allergic to them

Want a theosaurus?

Fudgey Smox sounds good, but also a little kinky to my ears, for some reason.

They are particularly evil examples of children in that age range... you have been warned. If you want to meet them, they're coming down tomorrow.

They have no purpose! Bees at least make honey, but what to wasps do? Do they make chutney? Do they make jam? Lemon curd? Gravy? No! They don't do anything except p**s me off!

Is that like a thesaurus, only with an extra letter? :-p

TK[1]

Maybe if it was "fudgy smock" I'd agree

I'm sure I've been harrassed by eviller children...

Wow...Imagine if wasps could make gravy... Heck, we could have an angle from a genetic engineering point of view!

It's my unique brand...

Mmmm, village idiot porn...

No, you haven't. You have to experience these to believe them!

If they made gravy, I'd be prepared to tolerate their existence. But as fair as I can see, their only reason to live is to p**s me off.

YOU are a unique brand.

TK[1]

...there there *changes the channel*

Oh, I've had plenty of run-ins with small children who inexplicably like me no matter if I try to be horrible or if I try to be nice. There's no escape!

Heck, it's a reason to exist, don't take that away from them...

I saw "I, Robot" yesterday. Wahey!

*flicks back to village idiot porn* It's unique, at least.

It's not that they like me... just that they're inexhaustible.

I sometimes think that my only reason for existing is to be harrassed by them. I'd rather not exist.

Any good? I'm reading a collection of Asimov stories at the moment.
