Oh dear, sorry. It'd been one of those days. Tell you what,
I'll nip out for a quick stroll, and come back when I've got my
slightly insane brain in instead of the slightly serious pedantic
one.

Well I dunno, really. I'll have to think about that! Mind you, at
least the act of thinking about it does tend to prove that peewiglets
exist :)

No you're not, as a Peewiglet you're just a figment of your own
imagination.
If I saw you, I wouldn't see a Pigweelet, because I don't know what that
is, I would just see a female yuman being.

However, having the power of thought, I can, as Chris suggested, think
about what a P******** looks like, and it might get me quite excited!

Do P's wear pointed hats or bikinis?

I'm not sure if Paul has still got the space (or maybe the access) to
make any changes to his Wilderness Wales site, which is why the Exped
15 photos are on Wild Wales.

Why don't you ask him! (But try not to wake him up)

>BTW I don't see your photo there yet Judith.

I'm on the Wild Wales exped page ....... hiding behind the hat and/or
the Land Rover!

Not for me - for the people on my course - however, they did not need it
and seemed to have enjoyed the course anyway.

seconded.

and of you Fran - i've seen the pics you put up but there isnt a 'you'
amongst them.

actually - i think there should be somewhere for everybody to place a
mug-shot - its always nicer being able to put a face to words

Maybe 'claimed' rather than 'established'?
