"I had Tolio as a child," Frank answered.

"You mean Polio?" Lucia asked.

"No, Tolio, you see the disease only affected my toes."

Lucia was satisfied with this explanation, and they continued undressing. When Frank took off his pants, his bride Lucia once again wrinkled up her nose "What's wrong with your knees?" She asked. "They're all lumpy and deformed!"

"As a child, I also had kneasles," Frank explained.

"You mean measles?" Lucia asked.

"No, kneasles. It was a strange illness that only affected my knees."

Well Frank's new bride Lucia again accepted his answer. As the undressing continued, her husband Frank at last removed his underwear.


"Don't tell me," Lucia said. "Let me guess.... Smallcox?"

thats actually quite good for you bunny boiler... glad i aint been sat here since 1200 waiting!

Or this item on the same day.

Which gives me reason to think this great project will never happen.

Quote from Wayney.
Quote:
Campaigner Wayne Colquhoun, from Liverpool Preservation Trust, said: “We have been pressing for some time for this kind of government intervention. If Tessa Jowell is now saying that even satellite television dishes will not be allowed in buffer zones, how can Liverpool City Council condone huge granite building blocks that will for ever destroy the side view of the Port of Liverpool Building.

"The same applies to schemes in Princes Dock that will ruin that most evocative view of the Royal Liver Building for ships sailing into port.

“These projects must now be put on hold to await the report of the Unesco meeting in summer and also to enable a proper study of Tessa Jowell’s White Paper proposals.”

there really would not be a contest about best skyline if this comes off... no other city in the UK can match this amount of development!

Simple thing to do. Tell UNESCO to shove World Heritage status up their pretentious arses. This'll be worth far more to the city than a twee badge of honour.
