Does anyone know how many weeks it is until the carpet bombing starts?

Or have I got the wrong end of the stick again.

Ah well....one must have dreams....

Nothing a local bout of plague or dysentry couldn't put right.

and I can't believe there are so many. Celebrity Wrestling, Celebrity Love Island, Celebrity dancing, Celebrity fat clud, Celebrities hanging out on a farm... No need for it I say.

On second thought, I've just come up with a beauty - Celebrity Circus. I'd pay good money to see Vanessa Feltz shot out of a cannon and Jade Goody fed to a lion.

I've heard the French are using the island for some Nuclear testing.

It wasn't all that bad...wasted some time while on the computer, some great boob shots, and there's going to be some good arguments between people I kinda am aware of.

It does go a bit OTT with the voting thing and, is it going to be everyday? That's just going to be wayyyyyyyyy too much!

Big Brother starts next Friday...

Got to admit I cant STAND any of the "celebrity" "reality" shows. Then again I cant stand big brother, or any of the other lowest common denominator shite that constantly seems to spew from the TV.

On the other hand I'm kind of fascinated by channel five's current focus on cosmetic surgery...

Anyone catch the show last night on a woman undergoing a cicumferential body lift?

I'm amazed they do that as one procedure, rather than a series of smaller ones allowing healing etc.

The risks from infection, surgical shock, healing such a huge wound etc must be massive.

Good. That'll keep a lot of riff raff off the streets and out of the pubs!

yeah, it's all rubbish, but there ARE some foxy ladies in bikinis, so it can't be all bad.

Anybody see the other new reality TV show, Pioneer House? Sunday nights, 8pm. About a group of people reliving the acts of the early pioneers in the 17th century. Quite interesting, and a very good mate from school and uni is on it.

hmmmmm. I've held off posting about it because, well....hmmm. Was expecting perfection, got far from it. I've taken a couple of pictures but not yet put them on my laptop - you'll see what I mean. Long story short, they ended up rushing it (yes, even though it was 5 weeks!). When I saw it in the car, it looked nowhere near as good as it should, with some glue marks on the side (ok, they come off, but shouldn't be there) and the centre bit you sit on just very 'creased'. The dealer assures me that within one month it will settle and look how it should (when I picked the car up the leather had been on the seats 2 days). I made them make a note of it on my sales receipt that we will check the condition of it in 1 month's time. If it is still creased they WILL be doing it again, and it will NOT take 5 weeks!
So, although it does really look stunning and finishes off the car so very very well...it did have it's downfalls, and for £1400 I'd expect a whole lot better job. Let me not detract though from how bloody sexy the car looks though! Will get the pics on my laptop tonight and post this evening!




Now...back to the point at hand...if you don't like something, don't watch it! Hasn't that been said a million times here on PH? I admit entirely that there are too many 'celebrity' (I use inverted commas appropriately there) orientated reality progs on TV at the moment, but hey - I sometimes need a completely brain-off-non-energy-requiring hour or so at the end of a day. That's how I.........sometimes..........achieve it!

Ah, sorry to hear you're not totally satisfied. At least you've made it clear to them that you weren't happy - will help if they do have to redo it.

And back to the point. Seems nobody is prepared to make a celeb program the way I'd like it. Give them guns and wild horses wouldn't be able to drag me away from the TV.

I admit I haven't watched it - and don't intend to. However, the TV critic in the Evening Standard said it was probably the worst TV programme he had EVER seen in his life. It made Celebrity Wrestling appear intellectual.

You'll have to forgive my ignorance here, but the activities of Z list celebrities don't normally trouble my awareness. I was vaguely aware though that Abi Titmuss was some sort of love goddess for socially challenged spotty teenage left handed typists. Having caught 20 seconds of this bollox whilst Mrs K was channel surfing last night, Abi Titmuss looks more like a squat flabby gobby shopgirl that you would try to pick up after a Friday night binge drinking in a provincial market town than a love goddess.
