Brilliant!

I guess you just get some Greek words and bung them together...

Ruthie-Baby(old a/c) · Fri Oct 06, 2006 4:11 pm

That's generally how it works, I think.

My Greek O-level was 31 years ago, though, so I can't decipher them like I used to!

ooh whoo, Greek O-level eh?

what's the word I'm looking for then?

(If i'm not allowed to end a clause with a preposition, in which case What is the word for which I'm looking?)

Yes, we used to be offered such subjects before they were displaced by 'life skills', 'community lawnmowing' and other such drivel.

Oh dear, I'm heading for rant mode again! My bl*ody ankle is giving me grief, and I need some of Dr. Welton's patent cure!

I'm starting to develop forumphobia trying to keep up with all the new posts. I did Greek O-level, started A-level, rapidly changed my mind and transferred to Archaeology, then went on a school trip to Egypt. And Greece. No contest really.

sorry CJ i have I think slowed down a bit this week as i realised it was taking up far too much time to keep up!

I think Greek stopped (as a GCSE and A-level option) soon after I left...

well that's odd because I'm sure it wasn't available when I was there...?
