Hi

Good point the show did deal with several deaths including spikes dad.
But about kennys aunt (i am thinking of the one in i think it was chance is
a fine thing if there was a another of his aunts in the show that died for
give me)
I think kenny had just used that as an excuse to get days off if he need to.
Like the dog ate my homework or i ran out of ink for my printer or my
computer got a viruse i think you get the basic idea.

Don't for get Colin came up with 39 excuses for not giveing lynda the
financale figures (she would not except the one about the crop failer in
bolivier)

(sorry i think i got of the topic here)

Well now sort of back on the topic
i thought one of the best scence for me
in press gang was sam going off at lynda and then sort of appologising
in the rest of my life. I know it was all just
acting and that but looking at sam she looked like she was going to cry. And
then to see her reaction when kenny told her that spike might be in the
building was amazing.

Okay now i am finaly off the topic sorry

bye now
chris
