If I had any street credibility to protect (who ever stole my ipod recently is now enjoying Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau singing 'Winterreise') I might point out that this was meant to be a rather weak joke about Grangey's eco-puritanism. Can anyone really imagine her enjoying a nice long sniff from something that wasn't bio-degradable? And now I'd better get out the tea and biscuits - Cousin Kevin is coming round to watch University Challenge.<br /><br />BucksboyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736931326120070680.post-66931397916448612082009-05-08T18:25:00.000+01:002009-05-08T18:25:00.000+01:00May I point out that despite what you and Bucksboy...May I point out that despite what you and Bucksboy might think, cousin Kevin is a shining example to us all, always spotless clean and neat, hangs around with the art school boys and likes university challenge...

Every time she whacks me round the head with a nearby implement, she keeps up a rhythmic beating to the tune of 'Teenage Kicks'. Hot damn! I never put the two together before. Thank you. <br /><br />Delighted to have given all you little old folks up there in MK a buzz. Keep the Grangey comments coming - they're extremely enlightening...<br /><br />BethBeth Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10257864885944938190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736931326120070680.post-48547406303035001692009-05-06T22:35:00.000+01:002009-05-06T22:35:00.000+01:00Hi Beth,

I was wondering whether you too had noticed a positive correlation between these and those not so infrequent occasions when she's been listing to The Undertones on her ipod? The next time she's beating you round the head with a rolled up copy of The Guardian I'd recommend humming the opening bars of 'My perfect cousin'. She'll be sniffin' glue from a paper bag before you know it. As I always say, you can take the girl out of Willesden Green ...<br /><br />And thanks for giving MK a mention a few weeks back. You can rest assured that, however briefly, this lent a frisson of cosmopolitan glamour to our benighted provincial lives.<br /><br />BucksboyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
