Sexiest ghost / child murderer ever.

I really like her and I'm glad her career is going so well and look forward to seeing her on many more things :)

Jon Boden. He's one of those fiddle-players who looks like he's welded to his fiddle when he plays, which makes me swoon. He was also very funny on stage last night and anyone who can make me laugh is a winner. Hello sexy forum... ;)

One reason why I like 'Allo'Allo:

She was stunning

Yes, she was always my favourite. I notice from God Google that she's on LinkedIn and that I have seven connections that know 'someone' who could potentially introduce us. Ha! Don't you just love the Internet? :D

She was very petite!

Are we still saying 'bird'?

I use it all the time.

For me it connotes, quickness, lightness, brightness, sleekness, colour, freedom, otherness, resourcefulness, motherliness, vigilance, exhibitionism and precision - all qualities I associate (not exclusively) with women.

It's origin seems to be unclear but as an armchair etymologist I would suggest it's related to the gaudiness of early cosmetics.

Are we the only species in the animal world where the males aren't the ones that strut about all colourfully?

Do you do a lot of colourful strutting, zooo?

Ovvo.

Ah, but he's trying to attract dudes, just like the ladies.

Curiously 'bird' seems to have been a unisex term - Wodehouse uses it a lot to describe male characters.

Perhaps you should reclaim its original use. e.g. that Godot's a funny bird.

Phalaropes. The more colourful females are polyandrous and leave the males to incubate the eggs and raise the young.
