I love this podcast. Love love love…almost as much as i love my husband. I’m on Mr. and Mrs. FiLs track right now and i must say I sprayed coffee when FiL started singing. That Joni Mitchell track is sweet too…Tim, Agnus (sp?) has the coolest accent! wow. I could listen to her talk all day…

well duh, it’s spelled Agnes. Good grief I can’t read. Anyhow, been slowly catching up on podcasts this summer. This one is really great. Again, love the intros.

Well, I thought that that was just terrific. One of my favorite CP’s so far.

i’m going to puke…

am i glad i’m not still single cos back then i would be hunting you lot down one by one and doing horrid horrid things

aw, it was a loverly podcast. very endearing. pretty much runs the gamut of all the personalities involved, as usual!

One of my favorites so far, since I know the signficant others picked the right songs! Great to hear all of your mates on air (well, MOST of them!)

Guess who has found the computer in the Italian hotel and wanted to let you all know that Agnes and I are now MARRIED! Proper news will follow on my return. We’re off for lunch with George Clooney now so I better go. Chow!

I loved this theme - so great to hear all these happy couples and their songs.

congratulations, you lovebirds! say hi to george for me. : )

Hrm. My comments didn’t stick…ah well, I’m glad you two are now wed. ;)
Lovely and sweet podcast…and FiL with a crazy voice like that I’m sure you can woo any gal (great intro). I also found Mr and Mrs Deeks’ exchange incredibly sweet. Off to eat more cookies….

I just got through this cast - I’m a bit behind. So let me add my own “Awww, schweeeet!” to the chorus!!

Dearest Cindy, my Dearest Wife has to put up with a lot of that singing, and sometimes I fear it’ll land me with a DEE-EYE-VEE-OH-ARR-SEE-EE…;-)
