You can't come to Hull because it's a secret, lovely place that we tell the world is terrible so people don't come and spoil it's unreconstructed working class ness.;)

I'm a lancashire girl meself but I love it here well, 'cept for the lack of hills........that really confuses me, I'm used to the calm presence of the Pennines surrounding me, but the chippy's are great.:rotfl:, gravy............not as good as lancashire gravy......this is the stuff that empires are built on I tell ya.;):D

:wave: Well I tried to read the last few pages but my eyes are struggling to make sense of anything, I blame the dyslexia, for some reason black writing on white unless I'm really concentrating is hard to read.

Anyway I've done nothing much, should really check the tumble dryer and empty the washing machine but I'm so tired! So I think I might be good, make a de-caff coffee before bed, then empty the washing machine, sort Stanley out and empty the tumble dryer.

Hugs to everyone!

ETA Froddy your kids have an excuse... I deliberately ignore shouty kids (even if they shout out the right answer)...yet they still do it...

BOLTON, I went on a school trip to Oswaldtwistle thousands of years ago and then used to get the train myself and walk around the beautiful resevoir/lake thingy by myself, dreamed of living in one of those beautiful robust houses, think I was about 13/14 years at the time.

Valli

Gryfon - apparently that is a real prob for dyslexics... you need a pink background.

Joke

What does DNA stand for?




National Dyslexic Associaton

(my mum said, no that would be NDA - durrr)

Valli I think my inability to do cryptic clues has a lot to do with my level of commitment! ie: I'm not committed at all!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I was BORN in Bolton...

school trips to Ossy?

(I used to play in the overflow pipes in the reservoirs by the whippet tracks...)

When I was a kid they had a carnival in Ossy. They called it OSSYGOGAYDAY...

bet they didn't keep it up...
