Joanna Lumley


Joanna Lumley is the nicest person in the world.
She walks on air and her smile exudes sunshine.
She heals the sick and even lets some old fighting dude knock about in the country a bit longer.

I've loved her literally my entire life, from Ab Fab to Girl Friday to Shirley Valentine to that program where she went to the Artic Circle and talked about seeing the Northern Lights a lot and then saw them and then I had a little cry.


When I got the call to say she was coming in, I instantly felt sick and thought I was going to do a Kyle all over her heartbreakingly beautiful blouse (she seems like a blouse wearer).
If I was standing up, I would have fallen over.

Anyway, she came in, looking suitably stunning with a little neck scarf and her hair tied up.
When offered coffee she was basically the politest person ever and only wanted it if it wasn't too much trouble.

Too much trouble????
Joanna, I would go to Columbia, grow and collect the beans for you myself, collect the water from my own tears and fashion a mug with clay I have dug for you.
But that would take ages.
Literally nothing is too much trouble for you Joanna.

Because my heart and soul belong to you.
Forever and always.

Moral Subsititute

One of our clients has recently been told by his doctor to give up caffeine but is somewhat lacking in self controll.
There's now a bit sign in the kitchen asking that if he ever orders coffee (which he does at least 10 times a day) to deliver an orange juice instead.


I wish I had one of those in the pub.
"Hi, I'd like a triple gin and tonic please"
"sure"
*hands water*

Fast Times and Fun Times in TV and Editing

No one of any particular interest seems to be in this week.
This week has been sponsered by "Boredom", "Samual Smith" and the letters F, C, I and L.

I suppose it is only wednesday. I'm just being greedy.

Actually, I tell hideous lies.
I've just remembered that the Murdock progeny are in tomorrow.
Lunch is on them then, eh?
