I think Lisby's tragically for real.


Lisby I think by the time you reach 30 you may regret persuading men that the only value women have is being a pretty little thing.


Women won the vote because they managed to demonstrate better qualities than being a prize pig.

she/he might be winding us up Huguenot, hope so!

women are still struggling to be seen as of equal value (glass ceiling etc)

so let's not good backwards!

The young attractive women in my office are very good at filing (paperwork and their nails!) making the tea and talking about celebrity gossip mags.


Perhaps these should be rounds in the pageant, with bonus points awarded if undertaken whilst wearing a bikini.

.. its like singing or cooking or something

Watch Miss congeniality , if you do not under stand (:



Ah yes, that would be the film where seriously assaulting her prospective boyfriend was considered a 'talent'. I'd prefer we left that bit out. Can't we stick with the Father Ted 'Lovely Girl' rounds? Walking, sandwich making and best laugh?

I have never seen Miss Congeniality, but propose a contest where women can show how they have taken on the men.... and won. I'd like to nominate legaleaglish as a contestant. Firstly for her amazing professional achievements but also because it would be a perfect scenario for her to showcase her kick-boxing skills! How about it, legal?!

watch out boys... you migt find out we really are better than you after all... especially with LegalEagle-ish heading up the team


"Girls are now outperforming boys at A-level in the UK - as they do throughout their schooling."

"Women to be the major breadwinners in a quarter of families by 2030"

"There are now more than 100,000 at-home dads in the UK and many of them says it's harder work than a job,"

"Researchers at the University say that men living on their own are more likely to experience financial and health difficulties, compared with women living alone."

"Women play a more central role than men in a successful society... "

"Men really do have an excuse for supposedly being wimpy about coughs and colds - their immune systems are not as strong as women's, research suggests."

"Their brains react differently, with the female brain showing more activity than the male, according to new research."



*thinks...must not use quotes out of context... could get myself into big trouble*



oh, and before the bun fight begins... I am a great believer in treating everyone with respect and celebrating the differences between men and woman... there is plenty of scientific research that show that mixed gender teams are more effective... and yes, I do like men, I am a sort of post-feminist feminist...


let's play nicely boys....


?Mixed (gender) management teams make better decisions and are more innovative.?

Apart from the A-levels bit (as there is a pretty good argument that the education system has been skewed towards female strengths - admittedly away from male strengths), there's not a lot to argue there, Charlie. Oh and the brain activity one isn't surprising - it must take a lot of thinking to always get the last word in... B)


Happily, none of it means that the ED Miss Lovely Girl competition can't go ahead. Any contestant unsure of the politics can enter in a flurry of post-feminist irony.

...................................... I'm thinking, I'm thinking....


oh yes... and the boys could wear their swimming costumes too... http://warisboring.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/borat-mankini-62408-1.jpg


(and I will call you boys for as as long as fully grown women get called girls!!!)

oh yes, Loz and just the get the (not) last word in....

    • Thank you both. Inexperience Landlord trying to save  a few pennies - hence no agent involved. The issue is the fact that it is my understanding that without an EPC that is current then they should not have rented the property - far  more to the point and taken rent from me. They commissioned an EPC 4 weeks & I am still waiting for or a copy!!! No gas in property. Well I guess it will be a case of instructing solicitors which I have tried to avoid doing but as they are not responding at all, I have no choice. If I am correct about EPC then it will cost them alot more than refunding me my rent.            
    • Went there a couple of weeks ago and had their set lunch menu - very good value and generous portions. Sea bream was delicious .
    • Some years ago, one of our dogs ate something dropped by rubbish bins outside a local café and haemorrhaged. Rushed to emergency vet in Streatham, who suggested that someone, worried about rats getting into rubbish bins may have put down poison. Our dog died the next day. Consequently, any dog we had afterwards wore a muzzle to stop them picking up food.
    • They have been awful for years. I moved ages ago.
