but if you go to those is the website down sites, some say it's down and some say it's up.

Site loads OK from sh*tty hotel wifi in Uzbekistan.  Seems to be something up with the indicators though 😜.





Did Eric Clapton really think she looked wonderful...or was it after the 15th outfit she tried on and he just wanted to get to the party and get a drink?
