June 2004


Received this one from Mummy Janet tonight, with the greeting: Rach – this reminded me of you…sceptically I read on and then laughed a lot! :lol:

Three little words…

I have long contended there are male jokes, and there are female jokes, and there are unisex jokes. Here is a joke I consider a true female joke. I offer it to you all in the hopes that women will love it; and men will pass it along to a woman who will love it.

A woman was sitting at a bar enjoying an after-work cocktail, probably a martini, with her girlfriends, when an exceptionally handsome, extremely sexy middle-aged man entered. He was so striking that the woman could not take her eyes off him.

The young-at-heart man noticed her overly attentive stare, and walked directly toward her (as all men will). Before she could offer her apologies for so rudely staring, he leaned over and whispered to her, “I’ll do anything, absolutely anything, that you want me to do, no matter how kinky, for $20.00……on one condition.”(There are always conditions)

Flabbergasted, the woman asked what the condition was.

The man replied, You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three words. (Controlling huh?)

The woman considered his proposition for a moment, and then slowly removed a $20 bill from her purse, which she pressed into the man’s hand and along with her address. She looked deeply into his eyes, and slowly and meaningfully said….

Clean my house.

Forgot to mention in the previous posts – if you want me to do something for you (oo-er) in return for sponsorship (careful with the comments this is a PG rated site) then please send me an e-mail to let me know once you’ve filled in the form at the Project Blog site :-)

For example – Ian has set me the task of finding a word in google that brings up one hit only – so am sure that will keep me amused on the day, Batty’s put in a request for a blinkie to be made and so on. Please keep all suggestions clean :lol:

Has everyone seen the new BT advert where the kids climb a hill waiting for the snow, saying how nice it is when we can plan our time knowing what’s going to happen…?

Apparently BT now think their engineers turning up when they’re meant to is good customer service! Silly me – I thought it was just common courtesy!

Now for a real example of BT’s ‘excellant customer service’ I’m still waiting for a response to my complaint that I sent about a month after we moved in….that was over a year ago!

Guess who has his own website which invites readers to leave nice messges wishing him luck for his next games…?

If you’re foreign languages aren’t that good – put it into google and click translate page ;)

Even in my severly hungover state, I really enjoyed Shrek 2. Still prefer the original, but as sequela go, this is one that has to be watched!

Well done Greece! :-)

It wasn’t the best match I’ve ever seen, but at least now France are out as well….

So the words ‘England’, ‘penalty’ and ’shootouts’ have never gone well together, history didn’t change tonight :(

Hoping the Greeks will kick French arse tomorrow and then will be able to get slaughtered at Derek’s leaving do…shame it’s at Brannigan’s but when you live in Stockport these things happen.

Off to cry into my pillow…

Just to be really cheeky…once you’ve gone to project blog and sponsored me, if you have your own site, please tell others to do the same.

Just remember:

You don’t have to know me to sponsor me
You don’t have to like me to sponsor me
All money raised goes to charity

If you’re still not feeling the urge to donate take a trip to Kirsty’s site and find out just how much this little girl’s been through in her short life.

Only 31 days to go….

For those of you who have never heard of Project Blog, it’s a group of bloggers who for a full 24 hours will blog every half hour for a charity of their choice. This is all going on on the 24th July – so make a note in your diaries :)

So this is where you lot come in…. I’ve decided to take part and try to raise as many pennies (preferably pounds) for Kirsty’s Appeal.. Please dig as deep into your pockets as poss (you can keep the fluff old sweets etc) and go to the Project Blog website to sponsor me. To do so, you will have to open an account, but don’t worry they have promised not to share e-mail address, contact details etc and it makes it easier for all sponsors to see who’s doing what. You can even choose to remain anonymous.

Once you’ve signed up ‘click on to ’sponsor a blogger’ and scroll down to where it will say something like ‘Broken Down Angel is blogging for Kirsty’s Appeal’.

If you want to read more about Kirsty’s Appeal and find out why I think it’s such a worthwhile cause, click on the pic below.

More details to follow, but thanks to everyone in advance! :-)

Was working for most of the match, but as soon as 9 o clock hit, it was a case of running over to the bridge to the Woolie. On that point, how many people do you know who choose to watch a football match in a pub with the smallest screen in Stockport where you’re not allowed to swear!

Still managed to get in, just in time for the third goal! My biggest cheer for the night was when Sweden equalised against France – for a few minutes there was hope that I could watch the English quarter final, but tisn’t to be. :( As Amy’s off on hols, only one more person on the team can be off each day, so having tossed a coin for it, Rupert who also managed to get tonight off will be watching the footie on Thursday and I’ll watch Friday’s match…not in the slightest bit jealous … honest

On the plus point scared some scrote on the bus on the way home, who was talking loudly about the tournament so far and made the mistake of saying girls know nothing about football. Now after Kirsty’s comments this month I can see where that oppinion comes from, but said scrote is now home knowing this girl at least can out argue him on Euro 2004, United’s last season and County!
