He has a European feel about the face, looks somehow worn out, poor guy. No idea who he is though

And your country is…, Ted?



I dream of boys with big bulges in their trousers,
Never of girls with big bulges in their blouses.

…and look forward to meeting you in Cóito.

I have a great recipe for sprouts:-D



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

I hope you all have already started cooking your sprouts for Christmas dinner. Time's getting on, you know.

I must have a word with my secretary. I even went to check the English spelling of 'Brussels' before I sent my last missive. That's the trouble when you're a polyglot.

that this can be Elio di Rupo. According to Wikipedia he denies being gay - or have I misunderstood?

Anyway, do I get points for trying? Sad)

Although he wasn't out at the time of the false allegations in 1996, he has since come out and apparently it hasn't hurt his popularity.
As you can read in these articles, his former accuser hasn't been sitting idle though:
  • Oxford playboy wanted in international police hunt
  • A terminal case of self delusion

As for the points, I leave that up to the jury. Wink

If one of you is Flemish and the other a Walloon, will you speak to one another?
