cheese with fruit in it - right or wrong?

I had to visit my GP today. I'd been thinking of getting rid of him, but it would just have been pique. He was quite nice today. However, he said to Flora,
'Ooh you're looking even more beautiful! That must be because you look less like your daddy.'
He said I could tell Paul he'd said it.
He clearly wants me to know that he doesn't fancy my husband. Methinks he doth protest too much.

I'm wearing Rufus Wainwright underpants!

Squee!!!!!

Is 3am.

Oh my poor neglected LJ! But this time I have an excuse! I've been busy, giving birth...

My daughter Flora was born on July 25th, weighing 8lb15. Wahey!
She was in special care for a little bit but we are both okay now. This is the first chance I've had to post though!

She's very cute:



gleet and I are very proud.

I was idling away my Saturday night so ended up watching 'Parkinson'. I know most of you have better things than this to do, but I will never be allowed out on a Saturday night again, so. Anyway, it was okay, cos Patrick Stewart was on. Patrick Stewart is nice. Except he had a dodgy moustache. We were inspired to buy tickets to see him in Macbeth in lovely Chichester next month. I hope the moustache goes.

I know this lust is disapproved of. But really. Think of him in his sweaty vest in 'First Contact'. Mmm, Patrick Stewart.

Thanks to poisonheadache for the icon.

Oh noes. The BBC are to stop buying Neighbours! Woe!

Mem time! Listmaniacs: Comment here with "top ten" or "top five" and I'll give you a category. (If you don't specify, you'll get a five.)

My own top ten, TV characters, requested by linniekin:

Of course no. 1. Willow Rosenberg (Buffy). Obviously. So pretty! So gay! And the vampire outfit...

And the others in random order...
2. Jean-Luc Picard (Star Trek: TNG), cos bald is cute and he's so masterful! Plus, the sweaty vest in 'First Contact', mmm...

3. Ted Crilly (Father Ted). His house was full of rabbits. And he's a Nazi.

4. Dale Cooper (Twin Peaks). Played by Kyle MacLachlan. Damn fine.

5. Pingu (Pingu). miss_newham and I were so cool we'd bunk off school to watch 'Pingu'. 'Little Accidents' is the best episode ever.

6. Rupert Giles (Buffy). Oh, Tony Head, the sexy older man. Mmm. This is confusing, cos I also wish he was my dad. He'd be a great dad.

7. Athos (Dogtanian). Likes his beer. Is a dog. Yay!

8. Inspector Morse (ditto). He's a cliche, and not that clever, but still.

9. Niles Crane (Frasier).Played by David Hyde Pierce. Well, obviously he's a complete twat, but he makes me laugh.

10. Ralph Wiggum (The Simpsons). He's called Ralph! "My cat's breath smells of cat food", and so on.

This makes me realise that mostly these days I just watch documentaries and 'Neighbours'. Sigh.
