Angel: I am already an Aus citizen (got that a while ago), so I currently have a dual citizenship. My Colombian passport is actually a hindrance, it gave me no end of trouble when I was applying for Euro & UK visas because no wants dirty Colombians in their country. I can't blame them. If I didn't have Aus citizen status, I'd be suspected of terrorism & even as it is, going through customs was a bitch. "Says here you're Colombian?.." "yes, but I'm also Australian. Look, theres a kangaroo on my passport" "Hmmm....still, we're going to have to examine all your papers." "this is Thailand. you have no end of paedophile rings here! way to get your suspect priorities straight, bitch" The plan is Sean & I will get married here & then beg the British to let me in. Surely they'd let me have residency if my husband is British-born? If that doesn't work, I'll have to fly out there on a visa & pop some sprogs out. Sean's dad suggested I tell them Colombia is dangerous & I want to be a refugee, but I think once they hear my accent & realise I know all the current Neighbours storylines the ruse will be up. But cheers for your help Angel. Do you like living over in Pomland? Missing the NZ yet? good luck, la. once you get the okay, where ya plannin on living? london?

So do you.
In other news, I've pulled several muscles in my thighs. Not from sex either. From exercise. I can't move. Its all very painful & tragic.
I kinda twisted my elbow from sex, though. Didn't really hurt, but it threw out my rhythm.

Pink icing, too, because he's a bit of a pansy) we'll either live in London or Edinburgh. Till I get the shites with the perma-drizzle weather & demand we move to Paris or Barcelona

good lord, Adam. At least send me a hot male nurse.
Don't be jealous, S. London is all drizzly & expensive to actually live in, not to mention there are always freaks on the Tube & if you want to eat out you have to cash in stock bonds its so damn pricey. And its the home of NME & all the trendoids who love NME & there are too many daily newspapers. Also, a lot of ugly people in London.
Have you spent much time in Barca?

no. i have never been to barcelona, but i've always wanted to go. i have, however, been to london, and it is indeed pricey. if i were going to live in europe, i'd choose to do it on the cheap and live in eastern europe somewhere...that way i'd have a good home base for traveling around.
i do like drizzle, though. and they're are lots of sexy east indian pepes in london. and nummy indian food. mmmm.

These boots are my babies. Unfortunately, I think this pic might be too dark to come out here, but I had to try to share them with the people who I could trust to appreciate a good, wildly impractical pair of shoes: I have a necklace, nail polish, jacket, and lipstick which all perfectly match the burgundy color of the boots, too - no one can ever say I have liberated my inner girliness again! Cheers, M

Yeah, can't see those at all, Mary... OK ladies... I have two weddings coming up and I need help finding dresses. (Actually, I could probably wear the same one to both, since they have no guests in common except us - but what fun would that be?) So I need help. I want something gorgeous that's going to wow my husband's coworkers at least a little bit, but won't fall down when I get drunk and dance to AC/DC. That might wow them, but probably not the effect I'm going for. I'm going shopping this weekend but don't even know where to start. Stylish suggestions desperately needed! (c'mon Layla, work your magic)

Awwww tunes I wish I could help but I'm only capable to commenting on these matters when I am presented with actual pictures of choices and can then comment on the choices. I can't just conjure an image of a perfect dress out of thin air from my imagination....and I don't know any terminology with which to describe dresses. I'm sure layla will take good care of ya, though

Oh, I wish I COULD present options - it'd make my life so much easier. But I hate everything I've seen thus far and am worried that I'm going to be stuck wearing one of my old stand-by wedding dresses, which just won't do. I think I need to get a dress that's an actual colour, as opposed to the black dresses I always buy. Maybe that's a start... Hmph. It's hopeless. I'm just going to wear jeans.
