    My brother used to sit in the baker's and watch the bread rise.
























    That's right, he was the Hovis witness.

    If the bakery had been called Joe's Bakery then it would have been Joe's Hovis Witness.

    Oh that's easy. I converted one of them. She <i>was</i> a dedicated Witness, from a family of Witnesses, and is now a fully emancipated reflexologist. I'm considered a high risk for converting their followers to something other than Witnessing.

    I would love to know how she went from a witness to a fully emancipated reflexologist! Priceless!! [:D]


    SIZE IS EVERYTHING! or at least that's what my LBS tells me.

    The reflexology was her choice, and if it makes her happy and provides satisfaction, and people derive benefit from it, then why not? It's not as if she is foisting it on anyone.

    She doesn't cable tie unwilling clients to a dentist chair and proceed to perform reflexology on them without their permission.

    When we lived in the flat in Belfast, a pair of Mormons moved into the flat next door. We lived in mild dread of the day they came to try and convert us. Eventually, after a week or so, there was a polite knock at the door, and on opening it, there they were. One said, very politely in a Utah accent...

    "Excuse me, do you have a cheese grater we could borrow please?"

    We were happy to oblige, and they never bothered us again...

    Perhaps becoming a reflexologist was some kind of knee-jerk reaction[?][:)]

    In one of his novels. ,Terry Pratchett has his hero tell the inhabitants of XXXX an antipodean continent to kill all missionaries on sight. So maybe an AK47, servicable, cheap and readily available or so a policeman friend tells me.

    Gad lays back and pedals slowly away, poor old soul. Elephants are people too! Arch for PM. 'Every home fit for baby elephants!'

    I had 2 arrive at my door the day after the tsunami the other year.

    They asked me if current world events (war and tsunamis) bothered me. I said yes they did but religion and geology are the problems so thanks but no thanks!

    Which is, ironically, the only form of reflexology I would actually pay for. Hey ho.

    Swear this is true.

    Met a mormon at a wedding.

    His name was Gordon.

    Altogether now:

    Gordon is a mormon!

    Hmmm. I was responding to your earlier statement that <i>"I converted one of them. She was a dedicated Witness, from a family of Witnesses, and is now a fully emancipated reflexologist."</i>

    I'm not clear what you did convert her to, but you don't appear to have cured her of gullibility!

    Is she currently sending a large amount of money to an account in Lagos?
