You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Ok. Email sent.
Gah. Hate. Waiting.
Also I should get dressed for drinks with girls. I would be perfectly happy to sit here in my jammies though. Perhaps I'll just wear jammies to the bar.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, Heather!

I'll have to check my town's crime stats later. I know something about at least one of my friends that could conceivably set Wheels In Motion, murder-wise, depending on if he ever came clean and told his gf.

Treacle pudding. That you cook by putting the can in a pot of boiling water. I think it has a funny texture, and the idea of boiling a can of cake just strikes me as wrong.
How about boston brown bread -also made by boiling a can of cake. Don't know how similar it is to treacle pudding never having treacle pudding.

I never realized that Digestives were a UK thing. Isn't Nabisco a big brand in the US? That's who makes the digestives I know.
Wait! You do get Chips Ahoy!, don't you?

Yeah, we have Nabisco, just nothing in a container labeled "digestives."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If they make Yu-Gi-Oh, and Bob the Builder models, I'll buy three. But I'll stick my own hair (while still attached to my head) in the vacuum, before I buy *only* my daughter a play/real vacuum.
I think they used to have a Rugrats one. A little boy I used to babysit had one. (This was a family where, for the most part, the father was very insistant that his boys didn't play with "girls toys," but the father did most of the cleaning and a good portion of the cooking in that house, so toy vacuums and kitchens counted as acceptable boys toys.)

Heh. Chris's baby doll is still one of his favorite toys. He was fighting with Juila today, because she wouldn't share some of the little dolls she was using in the Play School Castle that used to be Ben's. He probably mostly prefers so called boys' toys, but that Baby is by far his favorite. Ben is old enough, he wouldn't be caught dead with a girl toy, and was probably more conscious of it. Chris doesn't seem to have a clue about boy-girl stuff yet, except he loves all the colors but pink, "'Cause it's a girl color, Mommy. But it's okay if you like it, 'cause you're a girl."
