Pictured here is Jenny Eclair, the comedienne and star of hit BBC show "Grumpy Old Women"

Now every time I see her on TV she is quite funny and doesn't seem like she is a grumpy old woman. However it turns out she is quite grumpy, especially when her foot gets run over by a shopping trolley, as occured this evening in Sainsbury's in East Dulwich. She was less than impressed at my driving skills even though I was most apologetic and walked off grumbing to her husband/boyfriend/live-in lover!

Tim!

Jenny Eclair is hilarious! Well done, I do believe that you have just become material for a new 'grumpy old women' programme!

As for the Hobbies thing, try these:
- knitting
- cross stich
- reading Charles Dickens
- walking up and down stairs
- trainspotting
- baking
- painting (pictures or walls, you decide)
- compiling lists
- learning/memorising the 16 different German Laender, and thir capitals
- rollerskating

that should keep you going for a while...
