  1. We say schepje

     

    sounds a bit like shovel :naughty:

     

    you know they lie to you at school:naughty:

     

    babs lies too:mf_rosetinted:

     

    schepje in french its pelle and this word also means french kiss in slang

     

    so maybe we can say shovel to say french kiss, or not.

     

    oh, I can totally see that - chicken with a shovel :boxed:

     

    P.S. twas a Soviet school, so I guess they did lie :biggrin2:

    ...part of propaganda :mf_rosetinted:

  2. Haha: perhaps it's a bit dumb of me, but: the left leg which goes underneath the left arm, doesn't seem a complete leg...it doesn't seem to be a ankle but an elbow....

     

    seems someone didnt pick enuff limbs :naughty:

     

     

     

    ps: how do you call the little thing in pink to make holes in the sand? its cute

     

    It's a spade, Pam, isn't it?

     

    I know I call a spade a spade. :newyear:

     

    lol

     

    a spade? its weird. is it ok if i say a little sand digger or not at all?

     

    ha, I actually just say shovel...at least thats what it seems we learned at school...

     

    ...hm...spade out my daylight ? :boxed:

  3. A newspaper for professionals wouldn't do an April Fools, it'd lose all of its credibility.

     

    Yeah, initially like Scut said, we all thought it must be another Mika, but the article makes it clear it's not... and then why would an Indian newspaper make an April's Fool about Mika? :blink: Doesn't make sense, they hardly know him there.

     

    Which may be why he went there instead of Australia. :bleh: Though apparently he can't escape paparazzi either way. :sneaky2: That's for finding corroboration, btw, Pam.

     

    I still wanna know what yogic flying is too. Imagine how high he will jump on the next tour!

     

    Oh, and I've been to India, and it was lovely, but it was also the most depressing holiday I've ever had. You must realize that along with markets and colorful saris and beautiful architecture, India is full of crippling poverty of the kind hard to imagine here. In Delhi especially, anytime you venture off city center you see people living in cardboard-and-brick huts only big enough to sleep in, and it's the luckier ones who even have roofs over their tiny dwellings. Hungry children run up to you and your tour guides chase them off. :emot-sad: Most tourists act like they don't see the beggars or try to avoid any areas where they'd run into them entirely, and I would get so upset at that. It's like people would go and keep themselves blind to the social conditions that allow them to get their nice cheap pashminas and travel around in style admiring beautiful architecture built on slave labor.

    dunnnnnnnno...just thought it has been mentioned smwhr that the newspaper is London-based? - looked across related posts- (assumed its an Indian community newspaper from England...so knowing Mika is not surprising...)...or is it my "diagonal reading" again?....

     

     

    anyways, I still take it with a "pinch of salt" - even if he did go - prob for the interest, to chill out it a less crazy environement....no "meaning of life search" beatles ways that is...just strip the news off some couple of layers of exaggeration - both from M's side and from the press, and maybe will get smth close to (or at least reflecting) the reality :naughty:

     

    however some "field recordings" - just for incorporation of tunes/voices into album....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  4. :wub2:

    How do you know I've a insane passion for graveyards?:bleh:

     

     

    A part from this...Anyone know if there's still the William Blake Exhibition@Tate Millbank?:blink:

     

     

    Re Graveyards - well, actually I dont :naughty: .... I was only looking for the nearest supermarket:boxed: ....twas a refreshing walk tho...

    (and I have met a fox there at night!)

     

    re exhibitions - see listings in thelondonpaper or timeout pages - they get fast updates...

    rere - check out the Vanity Fair retrospective ex-n in NPG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. most of the places have been spoken about so far, but a verrry strong recommendation - check out the V&A....it is just stuffed with everything that the Empire has "acquired" (dont kill me, Brittons :blush-anim-cl: ) over past few centuries....amazing collection of just e v e r y t h i n g - starting from some rusty door handles to few meter carved columns....

    personal fav - the clothing division and textile collections

     

     

    and since everyone posts their last London visit pics - some of mine...
