South : The Palace Of The Popes



Are those halos in your hair
Or diamonds shining there
Without a hope, without a prayer
This rain beats down like death
You turn your eyes to better men
Before I go I'll hang in a cross on nails
I hung on for you in there

Beautiful pic!

Karen,

Yup. Decided to take the dog for a walk at half-time. Came back and found that Liverpool had lost 2-1.

Pity really - we should have been there. We'd have beaten them on the night.

Still...bring on Owen Hargreaves and the rest. I think next season is going to be fun.

Mailyn,

Hi Sweetie .... I actually meant to save this as a draft because there are a few things I want to add to it.

Just goes to show you where my head's been for the last week or two ; not in quite the right place - that's for sure.

Hmmm....interesting since it's been about 2 weeks since you received the package....so do tell about the camo's and the liquer cake and your reading.....if I remember correctly you were going to do all then go out that Friday....did it result in anything?

Steamy,

Tricky question. Very ticky indeed.

Eliptical answer required.

Having spent most of the last month systematically removing pretty well every woman I know (in the flesh as it were) from my life due to a perceived surfeit of female energy (which is not good for me) I seem to be repeating my now famous "Jerry Westerby" routine.
(See "The Honourable Schoolboy").

Gennie-Rose seems to be locked on to me like an Exocet missile : I'm running out of places to hide.

Hmmmm...still didn't answer the question. ok....

How was the cake?

Did the camo's fit?

Did the camo's accomplish what they were designed to do....camo something?

Inquiring minds wanna know.....

I havn't tried the camo condoms yet but I will at the next possible opportunity by way of an experiment.

To be perfectly honest me and condoms just don't see eye to eye. I think I've used two in my entire life and they just turn me off completely.

Like you I grew up in the 70's and early 80's so all mt girlfriends were on the pill and there was very little risk of HIV infection so no real need to use condoms.

Then I got married and pregnancy wasn't really an issue (nor was HIV) so no need for condoms there either.

It's only over the last 4-5 years that I've had to worry about this stuff.

Pregnancy is less likely than it used to be as I get older (although my GP tells me that 7 years of being alcohol free may well have increased my sperm count). HIV is obviously my main concern particularly as I had a very nasty scare at the end of last year.

So.......I'd much rather find a partner who I know for certain is HIV negative and carry on without condoms.

But I'll still give the camo condoms a go for a bit of a laugh.


Hugs,

M.

Oh....the cake was great by the way.

Don't know if I felt drunk or not but slept for 10 hours.
