To celebrate Wimbledon being over

A joke I just saw on t'internet:

What's the difference between the PG Tips monkeys & a British tennis player?



Some people can remember the PG Tips monkeys holding a cup.



Joke might be lost on some, but I thought it was rather witty.

I love tennis though, it was the only game I was ever any good at. Hmm, might take up tennis again. Not professionally obviously, that idea would be ludicrous.

I kinda like Murray as well. I think he may come good eventually. English people hate him because he kinda hates the English. I am amused that the English are made to look like they're the ones in the wrong in that scenario. One thing everyone should know about the English; they once tried to colonise the world, therefore they are always wrong about everything and always will be. The world amuses me sometimes.

Oh well, I'm not fully English so I suppose technically only half of me cares. The other half thinks "grr, colonial scum!" Can you see where I get confused or conflicted?

I'm blithering. I do that well.

God, I'm bored.

Yes! UST is always a good thing! Gosh, I feel all my old Jerry-lust coming back. Doesn't take much to encourage me, does it? lol

I'm feeling it too. Need to break out the DVD's.

Damn, I have no Good Life DVDs. This should be remedied ASAP.

I just realised I don't have the last series of this. That is something that needs to be taken care of and soon. LOL

LOL, definitely! I really need some money so I can add this (and others) to my collection of DVDs.

Also, icon love!

OMG another Foyle fan? I just love Michael Kitchen. He's so dreamy. And Foyle and Sam are the best. I love that series.

Yes! OMG I love Foyle's War. Michael Kitchen is gorgeous!

I kinda have a real soft spot for Foyle/Sam.

I love Michael Kitchen so much. Have you ever seen him in Reckless? That's what made me fall for him.

I ship Foyle/Sam very hard. I don't know if you read fanfic but there was really great stuff for those two out there. I miss that fandom.

No, I've never seen that. Actually I've not seen very much of his stuff, but I occassionally catch something on the TV. I think he's an astonishing actor as well as being easy on the eye lol

I love Foyle/Sam. I can't imagine why she would want anyone else...or why he would want anyone else for that matter. They're brilliant!

I read and write fanfic and am a little bit addicted to it in fact. I've read some Foyle/Sam fanfic and have often wanted to dabble myself but I've never quite got round to it.

I miss it too!

I love fanfic also. I read and write just never seem to finish any. I think I read more fics than novels.

I hope the series continuing after the war is still going to happen. That would be great and any reason to have Michael Kitchen on telly is a good one. IMO ;-)
