Goodnight Deputy Kandj :-) :-) <3

top o' the mornin' to you Jemima

one of my GF was Irish so I wear the green at least one day each year. Wore it again last night in my Irish local, Camden Town, expecting a crushing win by the azzuris. Instead WE WON!!!! BRAVE players. My ex was from Ballymena so I'll shout for Wales where my cat was born.

I then made the mistake of inviting a few new friends home and they drank all the whisky they could find.

now I can go and vote as soon as I have reassembled enough bits of me together

:-S

:-D :-D :-D :-D@ Rollo!

Good to see that your cat is a Cymro! :-D :-D
