Evening spring chickens, Flossie here, anyone care to join me in a stick of seaside rock left over from last year's Age Concern coach outing to Skeggie (or was Blackpool? They all look the same. We'll find out when we bite into it, if it's not got too squashed down the side of me Parker Knoll chair).

Now, who's got the best teeth for the first go?

Me too, those fairyvocal things, there's no nasty line in the middle. Its the reason I still drive (at 45mph regardless of the speed limit). Ooh I wish I hadn't cleaned the pantry yesterday, my ankle is the size of a tennis ball!

Got some chocolate brownies fresh out of the oven. Their my Grandson's favourite.

aw man they've removed the singing video...i was getting excited after reading everyone's reviews...sad.gif
elliewelly
I watched it with interest! She could definitely sing, but the voice didn't fit the body. I really hope the girl gets some instruction on how not to wreck her voice, before some promoter or record company discovers her and exploits her. Not many kids have a powerful voice like that, but she definitely needs harnessing in the right direction. She wasn't always in tune and I'm also worried about the effect of yelling like that on her larynx. I'm another one who'd rather hear tuneful purity than shouting like that.
