Peggy's Mundane Thread

Jock you should be on the friggin stage mate, you have the imagination of any comic and I would pay to watch. Thanks for the laughs.

I knew somebody would think I was joking. My stage name is Myfanwy Scott-An O'deur I chose the name as it's so sophisticated being double barrelled and mixes Welsh and French. It was a toss-up between that and Aeron Le Feu Feu.

Cerys Matthews on a Sunday morning is not mundane.

A large doll seems to have taken up residence now. It's very pink, and might be quite attractive but for the big blue smear where its mouth should be. I understand this was an attempt to put lipstick on it.

Maybe I should book Jock to give the four year old some makeup lessons.

I thought you were beginning to desribe this -

No, Chemical. No.

It's one of these. I think:



But with a massive blue smear where the mouth is. Ballpoint azure, I think.

In other news, I have today finished clearing out my mum's old flat. Now to finish unpacking and putting everything away at the new place.

Once I manage to find a couple of tardises to put it all in.

A free pogo stick with each doll too by the looks of it. Bargain.

Has she got a sister?

Had muesli again for breakfast, flew a plane, rainbow trout for dinner and football with some Henry Weston's.

Bloody taking liberties, Jock. Half of this in no way could be said to be mundane!!!

Looks like all this girliness from the four year old is having a bad influence on me: today, I bought a new dress.

To redress the balance, I've just spent a couple of hours reading up on the Nuremburg trials. In the course of my research, I found out that one of the nasty bastards in these novels I've been reading was an even more nasty bastard in real life.

Ok who added that comment? I know flying a plane wasn't mundane, it was awesome, but we don't have an awesome thread.

Nothing to stop you starting one, though, is there?

Much better than sullying my thread with your thrilling antics.

Innit.

I like the word sullying, definitely underused. No more thrilling revelations on here then.

Went for amedical today, and put out the recycling bin nice and early in case I forgot later.

I cannot tell a lie. No idea how it was added to what you wrote .... I probably pressed 'edit' rather than 'quote'. Jealousy about your less than mundane flying exploits ..... I could tell you about my parachuting exploits but that wouldn't be mundane either.

Going to a meeting later.

Haven't decided what to wear yet.

I would wear clothes Peggy. That advice about imagining the other person naked to give you confidence is hypothetical.

HUGE numbers of double wossnames on the 5Live Wimbledon commentary. In the last few minutes, for instance, we've had:

'He's giving these balls some air'

'She's taken a bit more toss time'

'All cameras are focussed on the Brazilian'

'We've all had a good look at the ladies' draws'

And so on. Much as I hate the loss of Peter and his sidekicks on Drive, at least I get to snigger like a schoolboy.

Taken from twitter-

Venus Williams has blamed her 1st round exit at Wimbledon on the balls not bouncing correctly. Maybe she should wear better fitting underwear?

I haven't listened to R5L for a couple of years now, couldn't handle the continual red top/daytime style 'news/propaganda' anymore, so can't comment on the present encumbents. But I'm so glad to hear that awful Drive character Peter Allen might have left the BBC building... has he ? I enjoyed the odd fall out between him and the other half of the then Childs empire, but that didn't make up for his hang em and flog em routine ... what a horror, and a perfect example of the underlying malaise in these islands.

Sorry to disappoint you, Penz, but he's only off air for the usual 'cancel everything else on 5Live while Wimbledon's on' fortnight.

And he's infinitely preferable to that cock Steve Lamacq on 6 Music at the same time. (I used to know him a bit, so I'm allowed to call him that.)

There's only the two stations on my radios, of course.

I have two grass cutting settings on my Flymo - 10 or 33 (mm, I presume)

They are both f*cking useless. 33 makes it look like it still needs cutting, and 10 virtually strips it back to the roots.

I need a mower that cuts at about 20mm. Or if I'm being picky (which I obviously am,) 22mm.

It's at times like this I long for something a lot less labour intensive, like Peggys Ladybox Windowbush thingy...

Reminder to self, never give tinyman a whole punnet of blueberrys one day, and then whizz him round and round the next day

Today's big discovery is that Hugo Boss, founder of what I understand is a big fashion brand, was an active Nazi who made most of his fortune manufacturing uniforms for the SS. As recently as 1999, the company had to pay into a fund to compensate for the use of slave labour in WWII.

Not, of course, mundane, but the fact that I found this out from reading a novel makes it so.

Oh, and I'd also like to thank whoever I've caught this rotten cold from.

Very useful name though if you're ever going to run a business. Much better than Hugo supervisor or Hugo clerk
