Gypsy, I love it!
You are so funny, yet so insightful & loving.
The photo is great & even before you mentioned it, I saw the devil in your eye...
I am so glad your brother's tests came back negative. What a relief.
I should be at work right now, but had to come home to get something Jenny left here. Her artwork for school & a birthday gift for a friend who's party she's going to after school.
I'll fill you in on all the events happening around here - it's been quite the (awful) week.
Do you still duck when reaching up into the cupboard for the sugar?
;)

...someone else has discovered my Angus page...
thankyou dale..oh no tell me about it when you get a chance..oh yes i see metalchick has found the illustrious angus..no dale it has left me with a strange fetish to cover things in sugar...
oooh dale ive just noticed..16-06-06...it really didn't dawn on me today...
What a little minx you look in that photo Gyspy! I can just imagine you terrorising your 'little' brother...and yet loving him to pieces at the same time. I'll bet he was glad he had you to comfort him when it was really needed. You have so much love in your heart, dear Gypsy......
YOur tricks with the sugar and the chocolate sound very familiar, but didn't you get hurt when it all fell down on top of you?? Sounds as if you just carried on anyway.....:-)
You should hear Jojo on the subject of her sister! Mo convinced her once to put her hand in a pot of paint, telling her over and over it was empty and she believed her in the end...of course it wasn't and she not only got covered in paint but also a big telling off from her Dad! Mo was always giving her grief, but the two of them love each other so very much and would defend each other to the death if need be.....they've needed to sometimes too...
Thanks so much Gypsy..love the story..and thanks too for the comment on my African blog...I'm touched that you got there so fast, and I really love to have your comments...xxx
Yes Gypsy, I did notice the 16/06/06...when I was doing up the bank deposit at work.

angus would that be veggie oil?..
so castrol gtx super turbo engine oil will suffice..
I really would like to disappear for a couple of days...
...mr a where are you when i need you?
ill go and find A and bring him to your window...you can climb down the drain pipe he will be waiting on his fine horse to whisk you off for the weekend...
Hi Gypsy,
What a funny story. I happen to think that stealing chocolate should not be a crime or misdemeanour if you're a girl or woman. It's a crime of necessity!
Glad to read that your brother will be fine. My brother is older and was quite a bossy boots when my sis and I were little. He once put a badminton racket through my head. I've told him revenge is a dish best served cold.

...oh dear anne marie...yes you could get sweet revenge with the shuttle cock...
