You might as well just move here and be done with it!!

From what I remember, it was a fairly slow-paced, but ultimately moderately likeable 'comedy' series. Can't mock you too much for that. Especially as it has Dame Judi Dench in it....
I LOVE Dame Judi Dench! And Geoffrey Palmer :-D
I don't know why, but it is one of my favorite shows (my mom's too!) I actually bought her all 9 seasons and the one hour reunion special ;)

But Frasier is still my all time favorite television show

Miniature kitchen appliances?! :?

There were four promotional Christmas sauces. I can't remember the other 3. I was in high school, so you were probably at an age you might not remember.
I don't remember that at all! I wish I could lol that would have been funny ;)

That REALLY sounds great. I think I would like the "Mexican Chicken Premiere!"

Now, the McRib has chopped onions and pickles, spicy barbecue sauce and ribs without bones.. I really like it.

I think Cheers will always stay in my memory as my favourite comedy series, as I was young and it just seemed great at the time. And of course that's where Frasier came from!!

Most comedy series are just shockingly unfunny these days.

I was wondering about that too...unless she's just talking about the half fridges

Very true! I love Cheers, but Frasier strikes me as more amusing...I think because the humor is more "intelligent" and less crass than your standard shows today

We've got an American style fridge-freezer in our kitchen that the previous owners left behind. It's a fairly small kitchen and is completely useless as the freezer section is about as tiny as you could imagine. And they had to remove the kitchen door in order to accommodate the fridge, so there's no kitchen door since we moved in!!

I like to think of myself as a perfect combination of intelligence and crassness,,,,

That doesn't seem very well thought out by the previous owners ;)

Uhm.. yes.. half fridges, half stoves (sometimes,) and some have half-sized refrigerators.

I'm a creature of habit. I just don't like "different" things all that much. The toilets are different. They're not wrong or bad, just different. I don't like that. I also don't like having two spickets in the bathtub, one for cold and one for hot. How can one get the water to be the perfect temperature under those circumstances?

They were complete idiots. They even carpeted round the bedroom wardrobes, so when my housemate took his out he was left with a large wardrobe-sized patch of different coloured carpet!!

And they made a complete hash of the wiring and plumbing!! Like installing a timer for the heating, but not actually connecting it to the boiler!!

By the way..

I have two things I'm really excited about!!

Distribution for my books in the U.K. is being set up.

I have permission from a band named Vibrasol to use one of my favorite songs in an LG-15 video.

Anyway, I need to focus on finishing what I'm doing with the book, but I'll still be in and out.

I love chatting!
