I will try to find photos of both of us and you can see. I am a Fellow of the Florence Nightingale Foundation. That says something, I suppose.</p> <p>On reflection, I have to apologise. I see, now, that you look nothing like the wonderful Mrs Woolf. She had a different nose.</p> <p>Hope all is well. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3932 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 21:06:55 +0000 ramblesid 3932@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Plucky, I do not bear any resemblance to Virginia Woolf and the only thing I remember about her book on lighthouses is the act of reading it.<br /> How about a picture of yourself then? I bet you look just like Florence Nightingale. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3929 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 21:01:28 +0000 PluckyMunky 3929@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Taking a dog from Spain to Durban is like taking money off bankers, Jeni. I wonder, though, when she will 'settle down'. She is 32 now. Does everyone have to settle down, eventually, or not? The main thing is that, for most of the time, she is happy, I guess. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3927 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:56:14 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3927@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>She sounds infinitely more sensible than I am Plucky.<br /> Glad to hear the dog issues are resolved and that once again, she will be off on her travels. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3926 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:54:43 +0000 PluckyMunky 3926@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>When the chairs started flying, in the Railway Inn, Jeni, she locked herself in the loo. A few years ago now, though. After lots of dog problems, she will be off to SA soon, at last. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3924 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:47:28 +0000 PluckyMunky 3924@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Fair dos,ram, but I have seen one of her with her hand on her face, like you. I don't want to suggest you are identical. Just that there may be similarities. Or perhaps not. You should try her 'To the Lighthouse' and her short strories, though.</p> <p>Jeni, are you OK over there? I didn't realise it was still open. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3923 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:46:06 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3923@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>God no, Plucky!! If it all kicks off I'll be in my usual place. Right in the middle of it!</p> <p>Only girls hide in the loos. </p> <p>Oh. Right. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3920 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:39:50 +0000 ramblesid 3920@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Christ Plucky! you nearly scared the be-jayzus out of me. I told you she was pointy and black and white and anyway, my hair was twice the length.<br /> Don't worry Jeni, I've got a feather in my pocket which should be more than a match for a can of dairy based dessert topping from Tunbridge Wells. I'm glad he's not from Salford- I'd be creaming myself. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3916 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:25:17 +0000 PluckyMunky 3916@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Jeni! Do be careful! Hide in the ladies loo, as Miss Munky used to do if it all goes off. Plucky xxx </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3914 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:18:36 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3914@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'd stay away for the next wee while Ram. Des is pissed, spilling drinks, feeling me up, and I think he's reached that point where he's itching for a fight. I was quite happy being the only girl earlier, but things are going to get messy. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3905 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 19:46:42 +0000 PluckyMunky 3905@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>this is virginia woolf. do you see a likeness?</p> <p><a href="http://direlasua.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/41526-004-1ddb8f8a.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://direlasua.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/41526-004-1ddb8f8a.jpg</a></p> <p>no offence, like. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3903 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 19:34:47 +0000 ramblesid 3903@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'm all of a quiver Jeni, as Phil Archer said, just before he died </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3902 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 19:27:22 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3902@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Any time now Ram... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3882 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 17:18:49 +0000 ramblesid 3882@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ah Jeni, I've dug out the old Instamatic so give us a shout when you and the others have got your kit off. Can't get any film for the camera, but never mind. Rest assured everything will be in the best possible taste. I've borrowed Salty's DOM raincoat, to fit the part, if you get my drift. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3869 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 16:33:48 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3869@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Here, we've been tidying over there Ram! Plus, you can still smoke in the bar, and if anyone complains, I plan to barricade us in with what's left of the furniture. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3836 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 15:10:41 +0000 saltire 3836@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Who's a pretty boy then sid ?

I think I'd probably had a puff or two of one of those hand-rolled ciggies I used to quite like then.<br /> I don't think I'd recognise Virginia Woolf if I slapped her in the stomach with a wet haddock but didn't she have a rather pointy face and was only ever seen in black and white?<br /> I was moaning about what's going on at the old NB. Just because it's mostly unused some of the more rowdy members think they can wreck the joint. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1438#post-3820 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 13:49:29 +0000 PluckyMunky 3820@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>is your icon thing Virginia Woolf, ram?

They're all at that difficult age as well, when they haven't realised how old they really are. </p>
