The biggest oxymoron in the world isn't military intelligence.
No, the biggest oxymoron in the world is 'power shower'. Whomever invented this useless bit of tripe lied when they discussed it's attributes. Buggeryfuck!
However, bathing here is an art... deep wonderful tubs you fill with hot water and one of a zillion different bath scents. Myrrh, jasmine, roses, sandalwood... just a few of the bottles of scented bath soaps I saw today at Waitrose. I was in olfactory heaven!
Today, I used Tesco's brand of lemon body wash... I can still pick up the tangy smell on my skin.. I felt refreshed and chipper from that portion of my cleaning... the power shower part?
Not so much.
Our Neville Fact
Neville and Margaret bought a Wii for the grandchildren, then kept it for themselves. They've created characters to represent themselves and others in their lives. Sometimes, to be daring, Neville will be 'Jesus', and when he mucks up, he says, "Oh my Dad!" or "DadDamnit!". Even though he's done it many times, it still makes Margaret giggle.

quotes i love
- "I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman." (Anais Nin)
- May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and everyone of us.
- "Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous, than absolutely boring."
- Fear need not be a tool of realism. I think I'm going to work with it.
- "...a season of love. it is only found in someone else's heart. right now, some one you know is looking for it, and it's in you."
- "to accomplish great things, we must not only act, but, also dream; not only plan, but, also believe." ~anatole frace
- "at night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. no one knows whether or not he is a writer unless he has tried writing at night." ~h.p. lovecraft
these? these are important...

The British do lots of things right. Bath products and scones are just two of them. Mmmm. Scones.
You are having a good time over there, aren't you? I'm glad!
raino~i'm flattered!
writ~scones. hot. with butter and cream and strawberries. *drool*
cr~i am indeed.
I don't think "power shower" is an oxymoron so much as it is a misnomer. I spent only a week in England and the bit I liked least was the pathetic water pressure. The tub was awesome, but the shower should have been renamed to "drizzle."
gw~oxymoron, misnomer... either way, it sucks.
At first I thought you wrote, "Power Hour"....which made me go....REALLY?!

I was looking for some information and was searching on Yahoo UK for it. I visited each of the top five pages that came up but didn’t get any relevant result... I then luckily found your diamond forum in the dirt and thought to check it out. This is what I wanted!
Cheers peeps at www.quinbrowne.com and keep the brilliant effort up.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing the link - but unfortunately it seems to be not working? Does anybody here at www.quinbrowne.com have a mirror or another source?
Thanks,
