With Brian and Adam clashing over the best way to lift Home Farm out of the depths of gloom and avoid the possibility of ruin, Alan and Usha also have a heart-to-heart. The vicar suspects that Usha might be more uncomfortable with the letters complaining about their relationship than she's letting on - and he's right. What is it with Church of England bishops making their flocks' lives difficult? You think they'd be grateful for anyone turning up to church at all, especially turning up to run them in such godless parishes as Ambridge. And there was you thinking that religion was all about love. If two people love each other, there can be no happy end to it. As Brenda wonders whether to return to university, Tom finds it increasingly difficult not to confess his feelings for her. There's no crime in wanting to cheer her up, but is organising a surprise birthday party really the best idea? "Hi, Brenda! I know your mum has just died, but have some ice cream and jelly!" At the Bull, Sid and Jolene worry that their pride and joy will be bought by some soulless corporation and turned into the Pride and Joy. Or the Snail and Canary. Or the Grouch and Bad Country Singer. -- Penny The problem is we live in a blame culture - whose fault's that? umra Nicknames & Abbreviations http://www.umra.freeuk.com/nicks.html

According to the opalescent prose of badriya <asft99@dsl.pipex.com> : >On Sat, 14 Jan 2006 17:41:35 -0000, "Steve Hague" ><steve.hague@ntlworld.com> wrote: > > >>> >>> At the Bull, Sid and Jolene worry that their pride and joy will be bought >>> by some soulless corporation and turned into the Pride and Joy.

Mary Chapin >Carpenter, Kinky Friedmann and the Texas Jewboys, to name but a few >:). Yebbut these have all recently been redefined as "Americana" by the Americana Music Association. My "This is Americana" 2CD compilation (a Christmas present from wofe's cousin who works for the South by South West Music Festival) includes: Willie Nelson; Alison Krauss and Union Station; the Jayhwaks (brilliant band); Lucinda Williams; Shelby Lynne; Rosanne & Johnny Cash; the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with Kris Kristofferson; Rodney Crowell; Robert Earl Keen; Michelle Shocked; and many, many more. <http://www.thisisamericana.com/> Kinky isn't there, possibly for electoral reasons. <http://www.kinkyfriedman.com/> -- Stephen <http://wenlock.blogspot.com/> Into my heart an air that kills from yon far country blows: What are those blue remembered hills, what spires, what farms are those? That is the land of lost content, I see it shining plain, The happy highways where I went and cannot come again.

If Sir likes this kind of thing, may I be so bold as to point Sir in the general direction of "The Coyote Problem" (www.thecoyoteproblem.com)? I happened upon them in a small bar in Fallbrook, CA last year, and was somewhat taken by them. -- Profoundly Misopogonistophobic since 1982 Nigel Eaton
