Um. Is it just me, or is the 'yay' smiley going incredibly fast today? Like, freakishly fast? I swapped to Mozilla Firefox today, and I'm thinking it might just be that Internet Explorer slowed it down. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) The (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yay.gif) smiley seems to vary in speed depending on what computer I'm on. I can recommend Belfast Tourist Information office for very fast 'yay' smilies... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

As with apples there are different types of pear and they vary in taste and texture. My mum likes really hard pears and i prefer them just about soft enough to bite easily. They also have a very short space of time between nice and too mushy.... |
