Thought of the Day (5)


So what do you think?

What do I think?

No, no, let's not do that again - what do you think of my new idea?

What is your new idea?

Well, i don't think i need you to do these special Sunday posts where i give out my thoughts.

Oh yeah? Are you sure?

I think so - why?

Don't you think it's a bit like the ventriloquist's dummy saying it doesn't need the ventriloquist's dummy holder?

The ventriloquist?

Yeah, him.

No, not at all.

Ok, let's give it a try, but don't say i didn't warn you.

Ok. Brilliant.

Brill.

Yeah.

Bri...

Er.

Belated birthday wishes!! Hope you had a lovely time on your special day.

I like the new features on your 2011 revamped blog!!

Eg new photo on the top left and the FAQ section below. Is that a feature on Blogger eg a "Gadget"?. If it's easy to install, I might like to have a go with it on mine!

I've only just noticed the image of the label of the Ginestre olive oil. I'm surprised I didn't spot it the first time round or maybe I'm having a senior moment!!!!

Also, the new "Random Answers" looks pretty cool and great for any time you might lack inspiration, which I am sure is rarely!!

Have a nice Sunday

Janet

Thnx janet - clearly i have too much time on my hands at the moment.
Most of the little bits that i've added came from this site
http://www.createblog.com/

Thanks for the link. I'll look into it when I can!

Errm.. I've just noticed what I think is me in your List of Characters:

"Janet - Leads a double life ; employed in an Olive Oil factory by day, a Hell's Angel by night" -
hilarious and it all might be true lol!!

As for the Karl character, could he be based very loosely on my Karl, who definitely likes chickens but has got 2 legs??

Just wondering:)

No Janet - this Karl - http://bitsnbobsshowntell.blogspot.com/2009/11/one-leg-in-berlin.html
lives in Berlin!

Janet Bianchini said...

Oops - I am sorry! It's a very interesting story, though, about Karl in Berlin..

Being inspired by your new look blog, I started to "tinker" directly after leaving your blog and I'm in a bit of a pickle now.

I have gone and got myself a new look, but I would like to go back to the original look, which I'd had for over 2 years, and I have no idea how! This "New Blogger Design" looks quite nice, but I miss the old one. Do you know how I can access the Old Blogger Style 565 again, or is there No Way Out of it??

I would be grateful if you or any of your readers would be able to help me get out of this fix. Many thnaks in advance!

Keep rocking - may the brthday party continue for at least 365 day and many happy returns.

I've just noticed the new and out of context comments on this site. Gosh, it's like a wonderful (and totally insane) exercise in pragmatics. Love it!

popps said...

Oh no Janet - disaster.
I think there is a box you can tick (and are urged to do so) which says something like - backup and make a copy of your present template before you start mucking about so that if you mess up you still have your original.
i guess you didn't tick it?
Have you tried setting 'style 565" in the help box?

popps said...

Hi vicki - what's the point of having a birthday if you cant be pragmatically insane from time to time eh?
ps have you found the list of characters yet?
