      <description><![CDATA[Well... &quot;Dancers at the End of Time&quot; is quite hilarious in places.  That's not exactly suitable for children either, but perhaps it's more so than Elric.  (Actually, does Elric get an appearance in &quot;Dancers&quot;?  It's so long since I've read it that I can't remember, but I think he doesn't.)

      <description><![CDATA[heheeh, the joys of having a small child in the house!

Reminds me of my best friend's little sister (who is now 19!).  When she was about 3, we were all in the living room and Annie comes running through the house in just her underpants screaming, &quot;Pa-china, Pa-china, Pa-china!!!&quot; at the top of her lungs.  It went silent as she galloped out. Then we bust out laughing and nearly wet ourselves.  We later came to find out that she had been watching the news with her dad and they were doing a story about the whole Tianamen Square thing happening in China.  So it really was about China, not about female bits and pieces!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[He helped push the lawnmower (or noo noo, as he calls it) back into the garage yesterday. He needs some little stilts so he'll be tall enough to hold the handle and the mower blades reach the ground...

We saw a helicopter fly overhead too. Unfortunately, he can't pronounce 'helicopter'. He got the 'copt' bit, but alas, when he says it, it sounds like it ends in 'ck'.

cue eddie running round the garden shouting 'more cock, more cock'.

      <description><![CDATA[they say that it's childish to do things like walking along walls. But children do it because it's fun. Why should only children be allowed to do fun stuff ? That's ageist discrimination, that is.

There are some lovely low wall around the University and the Hallamshire Hospital that I walk on :)]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[heeheehee..quorum brings back memories from my childhood (ok, so my childhood was last week...so WHAT???)

We used to play a game called four-square, and if a play was brought into question everyone (usually 10 or more people) in the line voted on it. To announce the vote you said &quot;I call a quorum!&quot; 

Needless to say, every play turned out to be up for contention...so we turned the rule off! But all the complicated rules involved &quot;long&quot; (for lower schoolers) words.

I bet I'm the only kid in town who learned advanced English from a playground game!

      <description><![CDATA[I learned the word 'quorum' through attending meetings of various university societies. I was chair of both the role-playing soc and the newly formed Arms and Armour Society. As Arms and Armour was new, it took a while for our funding to come through, and I used to pay regular visits to the finance sabbatical, to find out what was going on. I had to be pretty persistant and the poor bloke must have started to dread the sight of me. One time I walked into his office, and he apologized before I had time to say anything !]]></description>

The particular talent of Rory
Is his gift for telling a story
But the best are crude
and frequently lewd
And would never be on Jackanory

I also wrote a five limerick saga about the time Phil H. got drunk on Newcastle Brown and threw up on Kate's feet.]]></description>
