  3. Is that second picture you? Second from last, I mean - or is that just as bad?

    I wonder who else remembers that TV advert - (Sings) "One thousand and one cleans a big, big carpet for less than half-a-crown - (bass voice) For less than half-a-crown - Fine action foam. Deep clean. Brings up carpets like new. (Reprise) One thousand and one cleans a big, big carpet for less than half-a-crown!

    Just saying.

    1. That's a relief, Libby. Thank you. Was afraid people would write me off as just another dotty old fogey - which I am!

    2. You both beat me to that song. As soon as I saw the heading I thought:

      One thousand and one cleans a big, big carpet for less than half-a-crown!

  12. Personally I think this touting for followers thing is all getting rather foolish!
    PS I'm now at 418 and all because of you and I'm very excited but not dancing due to "sensitive bladder" as the annoying advert says!!!
    Oooops too much information?

    Totally deflated, John. You may remember that ages ago - when you were still in the few hundreds - I said I'd "follow" you officially as your 1000th follower, or at a push 999th. This morning everything was fine. Getting close. Thought give it time, a few more hours. Like an ebay auction of old I'll make it at the last minute. NOT SO. Never mind. You don't need me to inflate your numbers. Still, I suppose we can make it official at 1999 or 2000.

    Happy that you are happy. Congrats.

    2. Ah….. the reason I couldn't find anything to click on to become a follower, was because I am already a follower ! I clicked unfollow and it told me I was a follower already. Are you following me?

  44. Now maybe you'll relax and not be such a demanding old tart .... and all these GIFs have made my eyes go funny ;-)

    Congratulations.

    Now I'm stuck at an annoying 882, I suppose every number other than a rounded one is going to be annoying now ..... I think we're all turning OCD.

    To quote old Brucie .... 'Good game, good game' :-)
