I wasn't going to respond to this thread because I'm not familiar with the commercial in question but Janie you don't stand alone. I think there's a commercial or spokesperson out there that has each one of us wanting to tear our hair out or worse still having to restrain ourselves from putting a foot through the TV set at sometime in our lives. The one that particularly got to me was a spokesperson who recently passed away. If only he didn't shout. May he rest in peace and my sincerest sympathies to his family. Janie wasn't being political, she was just pointing out this gal bugged her, just like the person I mentioned used to make me grit my teeth when ever I heard his voice. (((Janie))) don't sweat it, quite often things I write or say are taken the wrong way. Sometimes I reread my posts and think Oh crap or something similar, I should have said that differently, OH well, shrug, LOL. Annette

Rosewitch, England was definitely one of my favorite places I have ever visited. My folks took me there when I was 14, and I remember bits and pieces the Crown jewels, walking amongst the Stonehenge stones (roped off now, vandalism), Stratford upon Avon. Time for me to take my own 14YO. Im trying to think how I can get over there for a whole summer, LOL. Dlynn, I could have worked so much more. I didnt really look at night time stuff and there was loads to do. Greece: cant help you, but shoot Yasou a line, she went a few years ago. LOL Annie! Teresa, well go together. I wanted to explore more cooking and food shops/stores but didnt get to. Terri, here is more a link to Pictures of England, a website pointed out to me by Denise. I started it on Bourton on the Water, where we stayed for a few days. Thanks Sharon, I was actually thinking how can I even come close to posting her quality of travel guides, I dont do the pictures she does LOL. We might have sat at the same table in the Cheshire Cheeses dining room! Sawdust still there, but we didnt make it to the cellar. I missed a lot of the British Museum. It has changed.check out the new atrium. I couldnt keep up with DH and DS16. Afternoons, when I planned museums, I crashed. Next time! Pam, lots of people did more than we did per day! Theater every night, more attractions, I cant imagine. Gina heh heh yeah I need another vacation like a hole in my head. Speaking of whichDH has another week off in August. Nooooooooo! Kathleen, DH says he took an average of 200 pictures a day. Yup. Me, I just buy the post cards or Google the images, same thing (DARFC from the photo bugs here) Cathy, thanks for giving me the War and Peace moniker heh heh. Next time I go with CF friends! LindaC, I know. Im still exhausted. Speaking of the V&A, did you know there was a Dale Chihuly chandelier in the entrance room?

i was so sad to hear of his passing. it was tough enough when whitey passed, and now harry. baseball, at least philadelphia baseball, will never be the same. at least the phils did it last season and he took that with him. the news reports have been so heartwarming and i'm sure there will be a few specials to come. RIP harry
