'For god's sake, don't put it on your fucking blog.'
My brilliant ma is a member of a fifty-strong gospel choir, which only adds to her general air of spectacularness as far as I'm concerned. Recently the group was asked to help out as backing/colour in the Temptation gift shop on a few episodes and she spent the day in the channel 9 studios singing her heart out which pleased me very much as watching her sing is pretty much one of the loveliest things in the world.
LITTLE DID I KNOW ABOUT HER WEE BRUSH WITH FAME.
Since she's remained uncharacteristically coy about the events that led to her somehow being plucked from the crowd and given a starring role in the latest on-air promo, I'll just have to imagine the scenario and hope that host Ed Phillips spotted her jiving in her robes and insisted the producers immediately cast her in the role of 'Davina' and give her some kind of trailer/catering tray/foot massage.
I honestly don't know how she pulled this off. But I believe she's done it with great aplomb and not a small amount of delicious verve.
I applaud you, Mama.
84 days til the next election

Actual Davina was very impressive too, getting her gospel on like that. She has so much more joie de vivre than Adriana Xenides.
I reckon that's Lavinia you're thinking of there, audrey...but yes, my mother could whip Xenides in a bar-room brawl. That's right, I said it.
I would also like a mum in a gospel choir, I wouldn’t mind if she spoke gospel all the time.I'm sure I would have done everything she asked,if only she had of been in a gospel choir.
I bet you two are as proud as punch of each other, that’s rare and nice. Your mum is tops
Loving the new layout, fits.
Thanks for the link too.

I'll echo that.
But what I want to know is - when did "fat cunt" become "pompous nobjockey"?
My mum, on the other hand, taped me on 'Sale of the Century' and insists on showing it to every lady I bring through the door. My time on the show was more People's Temple than Blues Brothers - after I drank the KoolAid (midpoint of the second round) there wasn't much left for me to do but turn grey and collapse over the buzzer.
Want to organise a mum trade? I could throw in a couple of draft picks.
Soviet style anti-religion commissar vs tuckshop lady style choir singer. Commissar smashes fist on desk, “You religious scum.” (In the tone of Imperial Officer from Return of the Jedi.) Are there conventions for screen play scripts Fits creatures? I think I could write a lot of unusable crap.
The 'search' function seems to be a bit off - when I'm bored and procrastinating I (big dork that I am) like to trawl Fits' archives, but upon searching for 'ugly children', and who wouldn't, I got nix (and the hyperlinks don't work anymore cos they're for the old site). Thoughts?
When I search for 'ugly children', I get 5 results. Am I doing it wrong?
You're right that Fits' own links within a post to other posts probably won't work. This is often a problem when one ups sticks. However, if links other than within old posts don't work, point me to them please.
Why am I not a real person? Why am I typing my name in and not appearing as a real Blogger with my profile and everything?
Oh, and my mouse is a little bit dodgey, can you fix it? I will pay you.
Yawn, slow work day.
.......mmmmm abide with me ............
