Do you want milk with that?
I may seem like a complete idiot when i say this but: i never knew cows could be so big!
As the schools are switching to more 'hands on' learning with the introduction of the Foundation Phase, my school had a cow brought in on Friday to teach the 4 - 7 year olds where milk comes from and how to milk a cow. The children then made milkshake/smoothies with the milk they had obtained from the cow, and several farmers wives came in to make bread with the children.
Now i'm 5'6" roughly, and the cow? The body came up to my nose. Seriously....i just stood there and my jaw dropped. Because cow = BIG cow.
But oh so funny...one six year old was talking to me and said "you'll never believe this...but there's a cow in the school. The Head Teacher wouldn't believe me when i told him." Hee...it's so funny baiting children sometimes. I tried very hard to keep a straight face because i knew at that precise minute the Head and Assistant Head were cleaning up a pile of cow dung that the cow had very kindly donated.
And oh how i'm getting fed up of my Dad telling me he's seen Torchwood filming....and yet whenever i go to Cardiff, that's apparently their day off. S'no fair :o(
luthienberen , i promise i'm not ignoring you - yahoo is doing my head in at the moment taking ages to load all the time - i've temporarily given up...i don't know if it's just me.

And...as for the cow...LMAO. Cows are big - can you imagine how the children must have felt? A GIANT to them. In fact, a Big Friendly Giant...A 'BFG'.
Yes, I know, I'll stop now. *sheepish*
Your father is horrible. Evil man. And it's damn unfair they're never there when you are. *pouts*
Take Care & best wishes tonight with your course!

And it was a BIG cow. BFG? BFC...not to be confused with BSE. Hehehe. HUGE cow.
You should see the photo's coming out of the Torchwood convention last weekend. John B. and Gareth (Jack and Ianto) snogged a grand total of three times over that weekend. Does John forget he's not married to Gareth, but Scott? But the pictures look very nice. Uh huh.

Is it bad that I grinned like a loony at this staement? LMAO
As for Torchwood...I've come to the conclusion that the actors are the craziest I've come across (a good crazy) and a gift to the slash community. hehe

I have a favour to ask. I've posted an extract from C19 at
I'm not asking for a beta but essentially whether you think that section works or needs a complete re-write, or anything between those two extremes. And no need to rush - I have plenty of writing to do, both for C19 and for the next Part of New Life - which I've finally started again! Yay for muses returning! That and some notes remian to be typed up. eeks!
Thank you dear!
(P.S. How is everything?)
Re: TWWC
Life is okay! Went to Bristol Zoo on Monday...sadly didn't feed any of the kids to the lions (they didn't want them).
But will tell moar (roar!) in email later! Off up Barry Dock to do the company banking with my mum now. I has an INSET day today...so no work \o/ wahoo!
Re: TWWC
Glad that Bristol Zoo passed off without incident! And you can't expect the lions to want indigestion do you now? Not enough meat and the clothing is such a bother on small people! lol
Have a fun INSET day and I'll read your email with curiousity when it arrives! Love~
