film reviews and poetry

People who do these reviews are often the most pretentious and boring people you’l ever meet.

further to my dental posers there IS an Internet complaints procedure that is recognized in the eyes of the Law. if you on a forum you want off of etc.. no place can store your ID or e-mail without permisssion.

cringeworthy.

yeah a classic contradiction in terms Mrs t… I wont ever be a wee skinny thing, but i cannot chuck out the clothes I once wore.I have learnt to adapt and be size 18 but still trendy ( ish)

someone called me “lovely”. a cynical.contrary horror.
As a child i had the worse, strictest teacher. We dreaded getting her,, and i managed it for 2 years. This was back in the Day we got the belt. and she used it,Liberally.
