Thanks for that. Sue

I'm sure Darius has got something very special planned for today. Sue

I loved that! It's on a video waiting to be transferred to a dvd. Sue

It was really good to see him and to hear the positive comments for once. :D Sue

Thanks Meg, that was great. I have spent the afternoon ( it has snowed non stop since lunch time!) sorting through old Darius videos from 2004. It brought some lovely memories. Only another 40 or so to go! Sue

Brilliant Paul! Hope all goes well. Sue

It's all sounding good! Sue

Zealous as a zealot?

These last ones are hard. Xtra special as Darius!

Vain as Simon Cowell (all I can think of)

Thin as a rake.

Right as rain.

Great news! Sue

Pretty as a picture.

Nice as pie.

Large as life.

Jolly (or happy) as a sandboy.

Thanks Meg. Did anyone see the programme yesterday about talent shows over the years, where Simon Cowell said that he still can't watch back the final of Pop Idol because he was so disappointed that Gareth didn't win. He said at the time the result actually made him feel sick! I didn't realise that he didn't and still doesn't have much time for Will. I was watching because I thought Darius might get a mention, but no chance. Sue

Hard as nails

Free as a bird

Dull as dishwater

Do you mean another surprise topic? How about similes? Bright as a button

Thank you Meg. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year. Sue

Zulu Always shown at Christmas. Now what?

I thought it was just me. The company just wasn't big enough to give a true interpretation of the dance scenes and although they used a background, for me, it just didn't work. Also I thought they would dance down the aisles in the last scenes, but they didn't. Although the main dancers were excellent it just fell flat somehow. Sue
