That's the best version of 'Cry me a River' I've heard, including Julie London's version.

What about Shirley Bassey's version, David?
That was always my favourite version, not sure now though  :)

I rather liked Alison Moyet's version, about six years ago... maybe longer.....I am most impressed by Miss Boyle , that's for sure.

Maggi, I  think you would have to be tone deaf not to be impressed with the lady.
Just to think she has never been married and never been kissed  :o
Apparently the magazines are standing in line to see who gets to do a makeover on her, hope she is as sensible as she looks!!!  :-X

We heard her too, last night on the telly. Super singer. "They" will probably try to make her taller, thinner, less grey and more photogenic. Get your hand off! As she is, she's charming. Paul Potts is just another singer since they fixed his teeth. Glad to see his wife isn't willowy. (They're in NZ pro tem.)

Or even the SRGC, Robin??

Oops! :-[ embarrassed silence :-X
Only teasing!

 Since so many of the other organisations are "societies", NZAGS, NARGS, AGS and so on... it is a frequent error...... there's no mistaking the welcome in our club though... Scottish through and through and eminently "clubbable"  ;)

Aye Maggi, mony a tru wurd sed in jest - see attached, seems I was confused so 'I joined the club'....!

Well, I've just been in the school assembly/dining hall, along with two colleagues, invigilating a third year biology exam. There were two fire extinguishers in the hall; one CO2 and one foam. The latter was condemned on 5/7/06! ::) There were 92 pupils sitting the exam, everyone in a tie with either a black or white shirt/blouse. 10 were left handed and there were 66 girls.

Don't be daft, Cliff, Anthony's not so foolhardy as to get that close to find that out ..... at least, I hope not :-X

Something I have never seen, although I do have an original metal Derbac comb in its tin. I would say that nits only go for clean hair, but my first sentence would suggest I only associated with people with dirty hair, so I won't. ::)

I saw on TV today she has had a makeover.

I like Justin Timberlake's 'Cry me'

'Flawless' - well err, flawless look at the guy who does a head stand from lying on the ground and without using hs arms

Saw something about nits recently and apparently the dirty versus clean hair is a myth..... they'll live wherever they can.  I think it is more that the dirty haired people are less likely to find them early, so they get much worse. ???
Cheers.
