Dins has just educated me on this incredibly funky car, the Nissan Figaro. Only 20,000 were ever made, in 1991 in Japan. Me want!!

After looking around that site I linked to for Strangers With Candy, I discovered it is OUT on DVD in the U.S. - so I just logged on and bought Seasons 1 & 2. I’m sure Lynne will looking forward to coming over and experiencing strange flashbacks while watching.

Archie is now sleeping on a bed on the floor! He has left the cot behind him… sad… but impressive. You just tuck [...]
