I'm not sure whether some of that's a compliment, and some an insult, or if it all says more about you than about me...

Fair enough- I get that all the time at meets anyway "gosh, aren't you young"

As Mina's child did to my mother. peering at her closely he eventually remarked 'You're very old, aren't you?'
Foruneatly, my mother is not one to take offence...

Out of the mouths of babes and innocents... (not two types of creature I encounter very often, to be honest)

Oh, allow me to have some little fantasies, why don't you...

Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Jun 3, 2003
You want fantasies? I already know what *your* fantasies are like. Sarah Green and Ming the Merciless wasn't it? What next, Flash Gordon and Philip Scofield?

Neither of them make a convincing villians,neither do either of them happen to be female.
So unlikely...

Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Jun 4, 2003
Ahh, I see the problem...
Judy Finnagan and Lex Luthor then? 
Hang on, you mean Ming *is* a convincing villian??

Blues Shark - For people who like this sort of thing, then this is just the sort of thing they'll like Posted Jun 4, 2003
Judy Finnegan?
Ming is a onderful cardboard cut out villian, which is all he needs to be under the circumstances.
Faaantastic day today...
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Jun 4, 2003
Sorry, just continuing the female presenter theme. Sally Traffic then?
I don't suppose Ming's characterisation is really the point, it it.

Not really. It's the moustache...
I'm rather out of touch with tv presenters, I'm afraid. Could we settle for Beatrice Dalle or Isabelle Adjani? Or Maggie Cheung circa Heroic Trio?
