As always I thoroughly enjoyed reading your latest "Aggie and Shuggie". I also very much enjoyed the interview, but after failing to log in three times I had to give up on leaving a comment.
Glad you enjoyed this, Dave - I hope you caught yesterday's too - and I'm sorry you had problems logging in. I know of one other review which is about due so you may not have to wait too long for the next installment.
This one's very good, Jim. A tidy, clear, internet discussion which reveals a little more than I knew before.
Shame the comments thing is like getting to Fort Knox - 'had to give up on that.
Never mind. I think we need more Aggie and Shuggie sex, that's the only thing :)
You think the one on Adrian's site is bad, you should try making a comment on a LiveJournal site. You can't do it on the site, you have to log into LiveJournal itself and then find your friend whereupon it asks you if you want to comment on the latest post.
As for sex in Aggie-and-Shuggieland, well we'll have to see what Maggie and Duggie get up to unless Shuggie put the kybosh on the whole thing. Maybe they could reenact the food/sex scene from Tom Jones in one of the local curry houses.
