Re: Three minute warning

wow - I have to get out of a blazing house - I have 4 cats, my laptop is downstairs, my handbag is in my bedroom with me, as is my mobile phone - can someone tell me where the blaze is so I can work out if I have to try to climb out the kids bathroom window onto the pointy fleur-de-lys roof tiles I ...

Re: Clocks change

I don't actually understand the clock changing now - it seems a pointless exercise just to confuse people. We are no longer in a wartime situation, we have every possible protection available for walkers, most children are taken to school in 4x4's (here it is DREADFUL! the number of mothers who DRIV...

Re: A look around, summer 2008

It is what we call "progress" - although I see little progress in the demolishing of lots of wonderful buildings, or the lapsing into decay of the houses. In April 07 I was with others there on a tour of the flats etc behind the school Hall & Dining Room -the only thing to remain intac...

Re: Recession.

:backtotopic: Recession - my son & his fiancee have both been made redundant ( they both worked at the same firm - I said at the time all their eggs in 1 basket, but I was ignored as per norm!) For every job here offered there are about 150 applicants - many with post grad qualifications as well...

Re: Up t'inf

Poor Sister! Obviously being so stupid and innocent at school I never actually knew anything about condoms - I left CH with the "knowledge" that one would get pregnant by sitting on a rubbish bin...... ho hum! Like Mary though, I brought my two up with sex education from the ages of about ...

Re: Death wish

I am terrified of being buried alive, so am opting for cremation and a small stone in a Jewish Cemetry. Then I want everyone to go and have a jolly time, as I don;t want ANYONE crying over my shell - I will be away in spirit and able to look at the spirits and souls of those gone before and those st...

Re: Cruising

i have an idea! :idea: Why don't a band of us get together and hire a 70ft Narrow boat and cruise on the canals? I have much experience in this (as does DD & DS) the reason for 70' is that it gives space for up to 12 people... we could do the walking the plank, food fights (outside the cabin) G&...

Re: Cruising

I used to queue outside the school gates with a girl with a very pompous "important" husband. Cruise holidays were his idea of dignity and status! One day, he regaled me with a story of the great day when they were invited to dine at the Captain's Table! What they wore, how interested the...

Re: Little Plum...

Little Plum is also a native American in the Beano or the Dandy who gets into all sorts of scrapes. Doesn't bode well for Mr & Mrs Plum, does it!! Particularly given that due date is going to make Little Plum a Taurean which is only a marginal improvement on a Scorpio child!! :lol: Ahem!!!! :wi...
