Yeah it’s true…I love The Weakest Link - the British Version.

The only thing good about the American version is that sometimes they have silly celebrity shows and we get to see people we never thought we’d see again (like the cast of the Facts of Life or Brady Bunch).

The other good thing (I guess there’s more than only one) is that Anne is a total witch to the American’s, which I adore. She’s much sexier in the American shows as well, mostly because she was younger and doesn’t dress as frumpy…and she’s meaner because come on, when you’re the game show host for a bunch of greedy American’s, what else can you be…

(If you didn’t know, the American version has a maximum of $1 Million that you can win, and the British version has a maximum of $10,000 Pounds - which is pretty much nothing compared to any game show in America)

In the British version she’s much more chatty with the contestants, sometimes even having them sing songs to her, but she’s horribly frumpy. I don’t know if it’s because she’s older now, or whether she’s got a horrible dresser.

But none the less, the British version of the show is much more entertaining, and the contestants are much classier than Americans. And there is just something fun about hearing all the Brit vernacular, variety of accents, and terms that I have absolutely NO idea what they mean.

Oh - and she was featured on Doctor Who as well, which was simply brilliant.

Actually, I have no idea what this blog post means. I’m still feeling sick and am taking medication…and I’ve had some wine. You be the judge.

Anyway - the major storm is over, and we had minimal damage - just the 12ft tall butterfly bush in the back yard that fell over, but we pushed it back up and it’s tied down and safe now. Let’s hope it’s no worse for the wear.

Back to work tomorrow…there is no frowny face large enough to put in here.
