1. How does one pronounce "Phuket?" Just wondering...Hillary looks

great, she had the frosting done and her suits are wonderful. Go Hill...

[Beacool]

2. Very carefully?

I have no idea. LOL!!

:7

[monmouth]

3. Maybe like Mrs. Bookay.....LOL....n/t

5. Great reply

I love Mrs. Bucket, I mean Bookay ... that show is timeless.

[Beacool]

6. I loved that show too!!!

Patricia Routledge is a great comedienne.

:D

[stlsaxman]

21. i heard she really detested that character... it was truly her antithesis as a human being.

hearing her say that boosted Routledge's place in my hierarchy of British actors immediately!

i always felt so sorry for Richard.

[Beacool]

29. Really?

I didn't know she said that. I also enjoyed her subsequent show where she played a private eye with the help of her husband and a young guy.

[stlsaxman]

30. yeah she was referring to "Keeping Up..." when the mystery series was starting up...

it was on Terry Gross or some such... I'll correct myself here- Routledge most likely said Bucket was totally detestable, not that she herself detested her. Slight change of words- big change in meaning. Sorry.

[Beacool]

32. That's OK.

Yeah, the character was a jerk, but as an actress she must have found it fun to play.

:D

11. prounced "poo-ket" when I lived in Bangkok

that was 30 years ago...could've changed by now!

[Beacool]

18. Thanks for the clarification.

Lucky you, Thailand is lovely.

:-)

19. I agree, the frosting is a nice touch and the suits are indeed wonderful . . .

Hillary looks great - nice job, keep it up.

4. What great pictures

she looks fantastic,glad to see the sling gone. Love the pantsuit and those shoes are gorgeous.

[Beacool]

7. Yep, I noticed them too.

I was wondering where she got them. I'm also partial to a two tone pair she wore in India, they are tan with black patent leather on the tip. I have a similar pair, except that mine are white instead of tan.

8. Spreading the WORD for the FAMILY? nt

[Beacool]

9. Ahhhhh, OK...........

What precisely is THAt supposed to mean???

:eyes:

[Autumn]

10. I think she is spreading Obamas word. n/t

[Rosa Luxemburg]

13. Are you over there too?

Hilary looks fabulous!

[Beacool]

16. Nope, although I wish that I was there.

Thailand is gorgeous. I would love to be sunning myself on the beach with a cool drink in one hand and a cute guy on the other.

Sigh...........

:-(

15. K&R.

[Beacool]

17. Thanks!!

:hi:

[paulk]

20. interesting that she wore all yellow

at the Govt House.

Yellow is the royal color, and could be seen as taking sides in the "red vs. yellow" conflict that has engulfed Thailand this last year.

22. Looks orange to me in those earlier pics

I think Ms. Clinton and her staff probably know better than that.

[Beacool]

23. It's more orange than yellow.

;)

24. I like Hillary's pantsuits.. It is her style, it suits her.. just like Michelle's

sleeveless dresses. Dang we have style in our party. We just do.

[Beacool]

25. Yes, we do!!!

:pals:

[Peacetrain]

26. As Garrison Keillor says.. we are definitely above average

:hi:

[Beacool]

28. I like Keillor.
