That's actually quite a relief! Now we can wear our slippers everywhere.<br /><br />Ms P, I'm pretty sure David Tennant is saving himself for me so it's unlikely he's had relations with any of his fawning lady friends. Delusional? Yes, I most certainly am.<br /><br />And I agree, Ms P: when is Mrs Squib going to get her blog started again? Let's just keep chipping away at her. I reckon she'll fold by 2016, eh.Kettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555996290361714986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479564812187394191.post-40051026695764714132009-10-15T15:33:12.768+11:002009-10-15T15:33:12.768+11:00(an aside)

I suspect not). <br /><br />Despite the complete absence of my new (read: any) novel I did thoroughly enjoy your cartoons and suspect they would have been even funnier if I was actually a writer, eh. Glad to have you back blogging, Missy Moo.<br /><br />Oh dear Squib! I could attempt to lie and say I've not been lazy with the translation but have in fact been allowing the words to percolate (quick! Sound the wanker alert!) in order to really understand the essence of Steele's already translated linguistic finery, but you would see through me and know I had actually been watching too much 'Dr Who' and faffing about in the kitchen making muffins (orange and poppyseed). I can't get anything past you, can I?<br /><br />I'm determined to win my Darwin button, though, so I will finish my four pages!Kettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555996290361714986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479564812187394191.post-44082939243466310952009-10-08T18:57:49.527+11:002009-10-08T18:57:49.527+11:00Call me old fashioned, *coughKettleandRamoncough* ...Call me old fashioned, *coughKettleandRamoncough* but I like to gush about a book, <i>after</i> I've actually read it<br /><br />Kettle, are you writing this Booker prize winner before or after you've done that French translation.
