It's my last day of this extended visit to my homeland, and last chance to flex my credit card in the shops while the sales are on, so you'll excuse my brevity. I have to find an outfit for a posh French wedding I am invited to in a couple of weeks. A little something in eau-de-nil silk would be perfect. Magic knickers firmly in place, I am heading for a factory outlet in Oxfordshire. I have bought a spare suitcase as I fully intend to fill it up before stepping on the Eurostar tomorrow.
Tippler is one of the last three in the Big Blogger House, and you must all vote for someone else to be evicted. I think that's how it works, anyway. You have to go to this link: http://timtim.typepad.com/bigblogger2007
Best place for him, in my opinion.

Posh French? I thought they were all beheaded in the revolution. Do you mean people like the late Sacha Distel?
Oh noes - you're coming back ?
Please don't bring the weather back with you. Is the chunnel not under water ?
Oh, wait...
It's actually quite nice here in Belgie the day.
Check your mail.
Well I've voted for Tippler(thank Heavens it was straight forward.)
What are magic knickers? I want some!
Hiya Daffers - glad everything's going swimmingly. Do tell us about the wedding. Have you read Harry yet? Is it a Third Reich allegory or am I just obssessed? I'm lovin it anyway - haven't finished yet so don't spill.

Daphne, I thought we had agreed that the magic knickers were between us, and us alone. I'll have to tell Skyce now.
Oxfordshire? Was the outlet underwater?
'Sales are on now' ? What? In this strange country sales are all over the year! Season sale, post season sale, season sale, closing down sale.... :) Niccccee I must say! :D
btw: i'd like to see your book here :D Haven't tested it yet but looks nice

GB, Sacha was in fact Russian aristocracy, God rest his soul. The handsomest man in the world, and a very nice bloke, as well as an ace jazz guitarist. I'm filling up at just the mention of his name, might have to go and listen to "Raindrops keep follin on my 'ead" again. The new posh French can trace their ancestry back to Napoleon. Especially the new President, who bears a striking resemblance to his ancestor.
Wowbagger, you're not fooling anyone. I know you are squatting Scrumpy's ID, because he's on his way to India to become a swami. I suspect you might be part of the Ayscough-Hussey/Munroe/Gosling family of pranksters. Get a life, dude!
Pat and Jake, magic knickers are made from the strongest elasticated material known to man (and woman), and make you look like Kate Moss. Did you see "How to look good naked" the other night? I could certainly identify with that!
Hi Jacqui, glad to see you've survived to see another school year. I am not a fan of the Potter child, although did sneak a look at the last couple of pages while I was browsing bookshops in UK. But my lips are sealed!
Tippler, you're going to end up like Jade Goody. This has clearly gone to your head. Get help now!
Aunt, I think we can let Skyce into the secret. She needs them more than we do. Oxfordshire is now known as the New Lake District.
Czesc Shyha! Lovely to hear from you again! Yes the UK is like shopping heaven compared to Belgium. I haven't added up my receipts yet, I think I may have to lie down when I realize how much I spent.
It has gone to my head, yes.
Which reminds me - vote closes today (Monday) so go and vote Tippler!

Yep, I'm a tart.
I can confirm he is a tart, if there were any doubts.
Tippler, you didn't win Big Blogger. Get over it you tart. And use your own blog for pimping in future. This blog is about ME.
Laura dear, hang around this blog a bit and you'll meet some nice men worthy of your love and attention. That gorilla's quite a catch, although there's a long queue for his attentions. It's that opposable thumb, the girls are all mad for it.
Are you still unpacking?
