    My Daughter is at Eurodisney at the moment, she comes back today. I had a text last night to say that she is absolutely shattered and the girl that she is sharing a room with could snore for England.

    I went to Eurodisney in 1992 (:eek::eek::eek:) - there are 3 things I remember ... 1) it was November 13th and the weather was awful and I didn't have a winter coat so my Mam sent me off with my Nana's coat so I spent a weekend wandering round Eurodisney at 11 years old wearing a lilac Granorak :rotfl::rotfl: 2) we got stuck uphill on Thunder Mountain for an hour next two manfunctioning robotic donkeys and 3) I bought a book called Le Belle et la Bete (aka Beauty and The Beast) and it helped me get an A for GCSE French 5 years later :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
