    It looks as though Amanda is inclining that way herself. But how will we know it is really her car and not someone else's much better looking one? And what happened to the kangaroo-suit idea? I am not sure I could wait until Christmas. !!!!!! My Corrado is beautiful!! I wouldn't need to put an imposter Corrado picture here!! Corey has rubbish alloys & his paint's a bit scabby in places, but he's fab!! And in bits at the moment probably.... Well it's Sunday, and I really feel I should do something productive today given it's my only day off this week, but I just can't be arsed. It's nearly sunny here, but not quite - too overcast. Everyone else is rolling about in the sunshine and we get murky skies. The problem with a Sunday is the sinking feeling of school tomorrow, (or work, but it's still a school night for me) and so I can never quite enjoy Sundays as others seem too. And, I seem to be suffering from something I read about the other day - Adult Acne. It's not quite acne, yet, but I can see it heading that way. Have got loads of spots on cheeks of all places. According to my What Not To Eat book, Dr Gillian McKeith says that this is due to lung issues. But according to magazine article I read, adult acne is very common in females in their 20's and 30's. Typical that I managed to miss out on teenage spots and then end up with them in mid 20's. Dr Gillian has advised artichoke and evening primose oil etc, whereas magazine says to get your bum down to the Doctors, but the natural option has to be the first step I think. Also tried putting toothpaste on spots overnight - which is supposed to dry them out, but it's a right bastard to get off the next morning. It dries on and sort of penetrates the skin so that you have to scrub really hard to get it off, thus inflaming already angry spot and undoing all the good work that the toothpaste has done. Anyway, better crack on with doing nothing. Bye for now!!

    Hmmm, well I assume he gets paid for it because he's never short of a few quid - he doesn't seem to leave the house very often, yet pays a mortgage, has new cars, family are clothed well etc... v.puzzling. Thank you for Corrado advice - I will not give up on him!! Despite the 162000 miles on the clock I think he's worth it!! The RAC man thought it was a fuel pump prob and said it was a cheap garage job rather than VW, but maybe now it the time for VW.... will let you know, but thank you for checking all this out for me! Musician - so what do you do? Play music, write music? Can you play the guitar? I tried to learn but it made my fingers bleed. Germany must be pretty good if you stayed after studying. It's not really somewhere that I've ever considered visiting. Do you have family over there or are they all in Aberdeen? I suppose actually living in Germany that there are a few lovely Corrados about? What's up with The Lovely Wonderful Kind Clever Mr Josco and his Little Man? I miss his complicated words and checking my dictionary for the meanings!!!! (Do you think that'll do the trick?!)

    So you actually live in Germany? How come you were at a concentration camp? How come you work in Germany then? What do you do? I've not ever been to Germany, or Scotland, but I've always really wanted to visit Scotland and never got round to it. That's rubbish isn't it? Health wise am feeling better now, which is nice and it's been lovely weather too which is a bonus. But here comes the sad bit ... though I shall put your email under Mr Mechanic's nose to see if it means anything to him. He reckons my car is shagged and is going to cost over £1000 to repair. He's getting some electrics chap in to check the on board computer (I didn't know it even had one and why isn't a mechanic able to check these things? Anyway...), he thinks it's possibly the fuel pump (I think), or a head - cylinder or gasket/t or something similar. But when I come to think of it, Corey was never very good in 1st and 2nd gears - I could've got out and picked him up and ran faster, but 3rd, 4th, 5th were excellent and he did 120mph no probs. Maybe this means it could be the fuel pump? But anyway, I can't afford a grand to repair him and is he even worth it? He has 162k on the clock and for all I know the engine could blow up after having him repaired. It's such a shame because I REALLY love my car. I wanted a Corrado for 7 years and I couldn't afford to insure the G60 or VR6, so I thought a 2.0 16v would be a safer option and less maintenance and expenditure etc. And he has such lovely body work and nice sparkly paint. And I miss my central locking and all the electric stuff and my heater!!! It's so sad to scrap him but what else can I do? I actually cried for my loss yesterday!!! If Corey was working we could've gone to Scotland to visit - visit my dream place in my dream car!!! How amazing would that have been???!!!!!! But actually, in new job I organise affilliated showjumping and dressage etc, and it looks like I won't ever get to leave stables throughout the summer months anyway as I'll get roped in to doing crap stuff and arse licking the judges etc. So anyway, that's my daily moan over with. Computer's about the same now. My Dad got given an iMac the other day (he works for Apple, though don't know why he couldn't have got one of those nice G4 flat screen things) and he's going to repair the screen on it and give it to me as it has better updated programs and other computery things on it which he thinks will make it quicker than this one. So I could have my avatar up and running by Christmas! I do think my car will ahve to be the picture though - will that be very sad? I think it would be nice for other people to have the same pleasure looking at my car as I used to get when I drove him..... and if it's sad, to hell with it!!!!!! I love Corey ahnd that's all that matters. By the way, what is a Lay (I assume it's spelled like that) Preacher??? V.much appreciate somebody letting me know. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Anyway, good to see you are working again and I'm sure you're not responsible for that other chap's bad driving. All the best, Hello! Good to hear from you! And thank you for your lovely message - you made me grin! Where is Buchenwald? I am too lazy to look it up I'm afraid, and I know I have minor tribulations, but please let me say this really quickly: By 15:30, when guy in the garage had not called me, I took decided to call him. He said that he'd looked at Corey and could not decipher the problem, did not know how long it would take and did not know how much money. Understandably, I told him that I couldn't give him the go ahead to anything until I knew what the damage would be, and he very begrudgingly said that he'd take another look. Surely I'm being taken for a ride here? (Though not in my own car unfortunately.) Surely he can say that although he's not sure what's wrong that it won't cost more than £1000? Surely he has some idea of what's the matter with it? When the nice RAC man towed me there he said that he'd speak to the mechanic and tell him what the problem was so that I wouldn't forget and say the wrong thing etc. And now this horrible smelly man, who has the strongest Gloucestershire crossed with pig accent that is so so hard to understand has my car hostage, probably parked up on a cold damp forecourt somewhere and has all my good CD's and my expensive sunglasses in it. For all I know, my car could be in perfect working order and he could be lying just so he can get to drive Corey around and look cool, instead of fat, balding and ugly. Makes me really angry!!! Why do mechanics mess me about so much? Am I being paranoid? How come every time I take car to be repaired I end up spending £500+? Everyone I know takes their cars to the garage and have to fork out £60 or something else equally as less purse-raping. And finally, my glands are killing me!!!! If I don't say something every 10 mins they close up and feels like somebody's slashing my throat. And keep talking really loudly because glands vibrate as I speak and therefore feel like am shouting. Deep breath. Anyway.... sorry about that. What were you doing in Buchenwald? Are you from the UK? Thank you for saying I write nicely, though I tend to write as things pop into head therefore it doesn't always read properly if you know what I mean. By the way, I will get my avatar and signature sorted ASAP. We may end up with a picture of Corey after all, seeing as he may be going to the big scrap yard in the sky very soon...... Toodle pip!

    Is that similar to a menage a trois? I suppose it could be yes! The MOST annoying thing happened this morning.... Was driving car to work and then car just stopped accelerating. Had to pull up as couldn't maintain the speed of the road and called the RAC. Then, as I was sat in car waiting, this bloke behind was pulled up and waiting to overtake once the ongoing traffic has passed, and this other bloke whizzed up behind him too fast and had to undertake him to avoid smacking into him. He then landed in the hedge and this ditch thing and narrowly missed hitting me! Luckily, he managed to get out, somehow and was giving me horrible hand gestures (as if it's my fault that car broke down!!! And my hazard lights were on!!!) and then the RAC turned up and had to tow me to a garage because I have a fuel injection problem. How bloody annoying is that???? Am without my pride and joy!!!! Luckily, have my old Clio that I can get about in, but am just gutted. I adore my car & I just know that it's going to be something really expensive wrong with him and I'm going to have to scrap Corey (the Corrado). Am skiving from work at the moment because I can't face going in yet knowing that poor Corey is being tampered with. Bloody crap crap rubbish. Apologies for the lack of punctuation/spelling mistakes/extra long sentences which I'm sure this is littered with.

    That gives me a nice warm feeling. Please share it with me.... feeling like a bucket of steaming sh*t. Not helped by the fact that I've been stood in an outdoor sand menage for half of the day stewarding some frigging showjumping. Arse. Want to die as pain so bad. And now got the bloody hiccups so can't even lie down and rest my aching bones because my head keeps jerking up every 15 seconds. Hope just 24 hour thing.
  8. Well I'm outraged!! I LOVE it here! Everybody has been friendly and welcoming and helped me through difficult times with kind messages of support and light humour. I may deviate from the whole death theme somewhat, but everyone here is a damn sight nicer and kinder than all these other rubbish forums. And I can pick up intelligent conversation here (something which I'm trying really hard to learn). Plus, I get a lovely warm glow when I see that people have replied to my topics. It's all good clean fun & would be extremely upset if Deathlist was to be no more. And I didn't even want to join in the first place!! Now where else could you get all that hey??

    I leave on the 21st of March, got a night in Frankfurt, leave on the 22nd and get back to the US on the ssnd and I have a statistics test on the 23rd, not to mention I need to hand in a Cinema paper that day as well. Ooooh, busy busy busy. Wish I could say something sympathetic, but instead I'll say this: Went for a manicure and facial today!!! My first ever! Bloody brilliant - all these years I've been slaving over my nails, trying to make them look OK and then being disabled for an hour while they dry etc and then they still end up looking sh@t, and you can pay someone to do an amazing job for you!! They look amazing!! If I had the facility, I would post a picture on here for all to gaze over!! And facial was just mega relaxing and skins feel like it's 14 again! FANTASTIC!! Am now going to get my wages paid directly to the salon!!!! Hurrah!

    Ha ha ha!!!!!!! I'd love to be fantastic looking but afraid am very ordinary. My Mother used to be a model in the 60's and somehow her looks seemed to pass my by. I can picture text message, but not attach to computer sorry!! However, maybe I could attach a pic of someone really gorgeous and pretend it was me??

    Innocence is soo attractive So you've found the edit button. Hit the report yet ? No, but I've been dying to press it but have manage to supress my urges! I'm having so much trouble with my avatar that I think I'll sort the signature out later on. But what kind of thing should I put?

    I think the gist was that he'd be relived that you hadn't delivered him a kid. (Nine-months is probably a bit of a give away.) Ah ha!! Of course!! God what an awful thought - kids!! And with a heroin addict!! No no no no no no no! Thank you for pointing out the obvious!!! Hey LOOK!! I figured out the Edit button!! Anyway, the NICEST thing happened to me tonight!! I went to the cash point, which is usually a horrible experience, and was told by a man who wandered past me, who seemed pretty sober and of sane mind, that I was "The most beautiful girl I've ever seen"! *blushing and doing coy "Diana" look* I am SOOOO bloody bloody pleased!!! I don't mean to be smug and maybe he was doing it as a dare, but that's just lovely isn't it?? It really has made me so happy and put a bit of a spring in my step!! I think every day from now on I'm going to say really nice stuff to my friends, family and work colleagues just to lift their days like mine has been lifted. And hopefully they will return the favour and we'll all look around swishing our hair and winking in mirrors and feeling damn good about ourselves. Hooray for men by cash machines!!!!!

    Maybe he was simply relieved that he hadn't heard anything from you in the preceding 9 months, if you know what I mean. Hello, I'm probably being stupid, but why would he be relieved? I don't follow! Please let me know!

    If I could please just point out - I HAVE NEVER TRIED TO HAVE SEX WITH SOMETHING ELECTRONIC EITHER! Thank you! Believe me - George is too much of a tit himself to get anywhere near mine. *shudders* I feel dirty and horrible at the mention of that, am off to have a shower!!!

    I suppose the way I treat my computer, some could liken it to sex .... I kick it, punch it, threaten to do horrible things to it, but I'm occasionally nice and pat it and say nice stuff to it ... but I suppose it depends on what you are in to!! Military friends sounds like my kind of thing though - virus free of course!! George Bush really gets on my t*ts. He's such a smug arrogant looking git. He's always got an annoying smirk on his wrinkly, leathery face and his eyes are soooo close together. He's just vile. And I think even I could do public speaking better than he does, and that's really saying something. And he's so damn cheesey - "Geee, what a beautiful child!". *Amanda rushes off to vomit* Urrrggghhhh. And while I'm at it - Peter Andre. He's so slimy!! You can see it dripping off his vile vile over-inflated body and he looks so plastic!! And that Eamon Holmes - all the housewives love him but why? He's foul and like a boiled egg with legs and arms perched on a sofa. Urrggggghhhh.

    I did think of selling myself on ebay at one point. Saw these ladies on GMTV who got together as a group and sold some sucker guy a night out with the lot of them where he had to organise for them to be picked up, wined and dined somewhere REALLY nice and drop 'em off home!!! I think the money was for charity or something, but what a great way to make money!!! I scrub up OK given the right products and clothes, so a half decent photo and a great description and I could be being wined and dined and getting debts paid off at the same time. Though Hooker, Call-Girl etc springs to mind, but you wouldn't have to shag them would you? You might even get a female looking for female companionship who'd be happy to pay for the pleasure of being in my company, so that'd be easy! Knowing my luck though I'd end up selling myself for a tenner or something, which would be very insulting. Heard from ex-boyfriend last night - he texted me to say that he would call me first thing in the morning (today) and that he's sorry he's ignored me for the last ten months. Obviously,he didn't ring. This is just one of a long line of texts I've received promising to ring and then hear nothing again for months. I think he does it just to see whether anyone gives a sh*t about him any more. T*sser.

    Well, my bloody computer's been shagged and only just got it fixed. I will be sad to see you go Inar, but look forward to your return! I hope you have a lovely trip! And all gifts are gratefully received .... ! My puppies aren't in the least bit mean! Central Networks have finally sorted out whatever it was they are doing so at least I can get some sleep now. In fact I will miss them - it was lovely coming out of the house each day and having whistling etc - it was like being a celebrity!! That's about all. Hope you are all OK!

    Although I hail from Yorkshire, I do not really speak with the accent as my father spent a not inconsiderable sum of money on my education, where any trace of accent was beaten out. I repaid him by getting expelled with no qualifications* what so ever. He lived in Switzerland before I was born, but was keen that I should be born in Yorkshire in case I showed any sporting prowess. I disappointed him there too. However, if it helps any of the Horsemen: "Eh bah gum, it's reit parky out, tha'knows, put wood in't 'ole"** **Oh I say, it is a little chilly outside, would you please close the door. *Please ignore my CV on my website, it's a little exaggerated. I didn't think you had a Yorkshire accent! I imagine Mr Josco to look a lot like Donald Trump and sound like Prince Charles. I imagine Inar to look like Orlando Bloom and speak like Enrique Eglasias (or however you spell it).

    Hello & Good Afternoon! Although am Welsh and lived there for my first 14 years, I didn't pick up the accent. Both of my parents are pretty well spoken, so I have been told that I speak with no accent, but with a hint of Tara Palmer-Tomkinson and the like. Also, my Mother who is exceptionally well spoken, made sure that she corrected me on every word that came out of my mouth so that I sounded like her. But I try to play my accent down depending on who I am with because I don't like it when people take the p*ss. But I would like to have a Spanish accent and look like Penelope Cruz.
