You mean sing I think! reminds me of the time at work where there was a leaving card to sign and the instruction from the card keeper was "please come and sing at my desk". Quite surreal... On 15 September 2013 14:59, Bob W wrote: > The hellfire preacher forced those sinners to sign them all! > >

Well, your lakeside and rock pictures made us envious so we're only getting our own back. Karin chose a few more to make you feel even worse. They're added to end of the gallery, Chris On 15 September 2013 13:24, Rick Womer wrote: > You're as merciless as Cotty. > > I would =so= love a country
