I went to university in Liverpool late eighties/early nineties. I lived in Wavertree and had friends in Toxteth. Mr G Cat was still in school (I'm a cradle snatcher as he's nearly 2 1/2 years younger), had I known it he was only about 40 miles away! Despite that, I've never eaten Scouse...

Scousers I don't think you should take too much notice of Mr G Cat on the subject of Scousers since Mancunians are notoriously prejudiced against anything Liverpudlian. Scouser is non-pejorative slang for a Liverpudlian (someone from Liverpool). Scouse is either Liverpudlian slang -...

I have to say that Toxteth is a lovely place full of lovely people. I have walked its streets at some ungodly hour in the morning without being raped and murdered by the mad druggie psychos who are supposed to rome its streets. That said, it's about as far from posh as you'd want to go...

Pardon me for being ill informed, being more of a football widow than a genuine fan but is all this fuss because the team the pats beat on Sunday (or their fans) are complaining about the size of the margin? If so, what a bunch of whinging loosers. Things may be, (and often are) different in...

Re: "Happiness and light" thread - help please? LOL. I think that would be shooting myself in the foot, cutting off my nose to spite my face, etc. etc. :D BTW I went to a state school (public school in American) which didn't cover ancient Greek literature.

Erm, I have an Anglican mother and a Jewish father. What does that make me? Sitting on the fence in many ways as I don't feel that I completely belong to either camp. Faith-wise, I'm an agnostic and very nearly an atheist though I can't be a complete atheist without proof that there is no God...

Re: "Happiness and light" thread - help please? Well, now you mention it . . . Did I mention that there was no sign of MR FBN in Denmark? I did hear that they had some rather good gender reassignment clinics though. And on the subject of Mr G Cat: Help! He's gone power mad since Ian...

Seeing as my mother is an anglican and my father jewish, Mr G Cat asked me if I had asked a similar question as a child. I couldn't remember. We went for lunch to my parents on Saturday and he asked the same question to my mother. "Oh, I don't think they asked anything so profound&quot...

Why thank you Mr Box. That's actually a really good idea. I'm off to Battersea dogs' home (http://www.dogshome.org/). On second thoughts, a dog won't pay its share of the bills and I'm fairly sure Julian won't pee on the floor if I leave him home alone all day ;).

Thank you for your concern gentlemen. I was considering slipping Mr G Cat a little something to distract him from the forum but in the end I didn't need to. He went and did it to himself with several pints of good English Ale and is now protesting his sobriety over a burger and chips (French...

Mr Gomezcat, Your dinner is ready. In fact it has been ready for the past 29 hours. I have been calling you but you have not spoken to me or reacted except to elbow me out of the way when I tried to turn your PC off. I have resorted to this tactic in desperation that you might waste away...

By a funny coincidence, I happen to be going to Denmark in a couple of weeks time (yes, really!). I shall see if this FBN chappie has been playing fast and loose with MY boyfriend and if he has . . . Well lets just say that it will be FBN feathers flying in Denmark :p And...

You're welcome. I live to serve. Mr GCat has had his understanding of the game greately enhanced by my words of wisdom (that'll teach him to make patronising comments when I ask how to quote other posts).

Wow! How did you guess? You win my vote for the clevererest person to reply to my post :rofl:.

Since I'm such a blindingly good expert on this subject, I thought I would help start your musings off on the subject of the draft. Mr G Cat tells me the Pats are no longer in it for the superbowl, and I thought that the best thing to help you poor people get over it was to distract you with...

Mr Marx had this one right. If people weren't trying to earn treasure in a mythical heaven, they might get busy fixing up this one, amazing world we have and stop letting a bunch of hypocritical perverts tell us what to do. BTW, just to be clear, I mean ministers and anyone in authority in...

Isn't Christianity, by definition, worship of ************ and by that definition, aren't they all Christians? BTW, I was very confused as a student when I shared a house with a Catholic lady from Northern Ireland. She talked about people of a 'different religion' and it took ages for me to...

BTW Julian (Gomezcat) is fine. He's just err, a little, um, busy, at the moment.

Maddie's revenge . . . Maddie's Revenge . . . And I had a point to make myself, with the 'help' of Eddie, Mr GCat's bear . . . Disclaimer: No bears were actually injured in the production of these photos.
