By the way, Ned, I wanted to thank you for your very apt comment on my 'The Monkey and the Whale' just now, but I'd submitted my thanks to Mia and Josie just before yours popped up. Oh well, thanks anyway! |

In fact we could do with more of it. The words incidentally are not useless provided you sound them in the right way!- they are part of life and therefore ought to be part of a writing site. I dont hold with the view that personal experience is taboo viz Christina Rosetti whose poetry I love. My next project is Ernst Jendl!
I wish someone would do the erquivalent of "Whew" in another language. How about it dear Mia?

I agree aswell, there is always a place for expressions such as these, we'd find it hard to get through a whole day without them. There's even one that I doubt could even be spelt. You know, the noise made when we agree with someone, like uhu except more with an m sound. Id spell it....but I can't lol |
