LOL; yeah so did I! I was getting a little nervous before posting it.
But somehow I doubt he's reading it. And even if he is, he don't know
what I look like :D

I won't have £50 riding on it; he will!! :)
As he says himself "the people who try to try to trick me are the

But somehow, I doubt that he's gonna pick me for any of his routines.
He'll catch on by just looking at me, I reckon!
