I don't blame her, Once you've had prime fillet you're not going to settle for cheap cuts.

Well, most people on here know about my Mum, so there isn't really anything to say about her
My Dad is ace. He's an ex teacher and part time minister, and one of the friendliest people I'll ever meet. His public speaking is fantastic, I've seen rude waiters become absolutely engrossed in his speeches, despite only being there to serve drinks. If I grow up to be half the man he is, I think I'll have done well enough.

Alt: Most of my office colleagues are excellent, as are many of the bureau staff. However, I don't think much of the MD here, and I'm not too fond of the Sales Director either.
