Shows that a letter can go a long way.<BR/><BR/>At least with the DVD, which will probably reach a wider audience, and which will be on TV in a few years time, he admits his mistake, explains some things about ME which he has obviously since learnt but continues with the skit in an almost identical fashion.murdonesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17468389529460640774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17300038.post-73823082892391189152007-10-09T22:42:00.000+01:002007-10-09T22:42:00.000+01:00Ta for comments all.Hi Murdoness - I saw Seachd in...Ta for comments all.<BR/><BR/>Hi Murdoness - I saw Seachd in a preview...guess you liked it more than me :-) What's gaelic for 'each to their own'?<BR/><BR/>-CCiarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908098909334331994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17300038.post-27132199823874649482007-10-08T15:15:00.000+01:002007-10-08T15:15:00.000+01:00Totally unrelated, but i'm trying to spread the wo...Totally unrelated, but i'm trying to spread the word of the film Seachd: The Inaccessible Pinnacle. It's a gaelic film which is being shown in Cineworld cinemas around Scotland.<BR/><BR/>You might have heard the big hoo-haa about it not getting an oscar nod by bafta in the foreign film section. <BR/><BR/>well, i'm telling everyone i know to go watch it, and even though i don't know you - GO WATCH IT.murdonesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17468389529460640774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17300038.post-42184076618225351252007-10-06T10:00:00.000+01:002007-10-06T10:00:00.000+01:00Have you been reading Byron Katie again, Ciara? :-...Have you been reading Byron Katie again, Ciara? :-) I've just finished her second book.Mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08409944998946748154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17300038.post-58256590814103016052007-10-05T16:43:00.000+01:002007-10-05T16:43:00.000+01:00Dear Ciara,Your absolutely right, defending costs ...Dear Ciara,<BR/><BR/>Your absolutely right, defending costs too much of our precious energy.<BR/><BR/>TC<BR/>Dr SpeedyDr Speedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873114586852370992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17300038.post-91907440993708027172007-10-05T13:52:00.000+01:002007-10-05T13:52:00.000+01:00Hey C, I think you are possibly less offended by M...Hey C, I think you are possibly less offended by Mr Gervais because you are in a good phase now and feeling considerably stronger, which is great . . . still, i think those PWME who are having horribly limited lives would not be able to adopt the position of being able to laugh it off. His joke <I>was</I> actually quite funny, but only if you know the truth of the illness - the danger with his humour is he could easily perpetuate 'untruths' (I think I made that word up) about ME. I am just so chilled by the recent NICE guidelines. <BR/><BR/>Have a great time seeing your wee nieces.
