Frightened about my future - part 2.

savingwannabe

I had a Wombles carrier bag and a sooty puppet. I never had a Barbie. I loved the Wombles. I wanted to meet Great Uncle Bulgaria and to be Paddington bear. I loved the Mr Men.

I always wanted to be George from the Famous Five with lashings of ginger beer.

Oh gosh, how naff. I remember it being far quicker than that. We used to sing it out loud and have great adventures, it was great in the 70s. Have I scared everyone away?

They won the other day and play Germany in the quarters on saturday (if england had won they would be playing the argies).... :rotfl:

Well, thanks for that information NID.

At least we only got the war jokes relating to the Germans. If we were playing the Argies I expect the Falklands War would have been revived!

One of my students was on a train and she heard people being nasty to a German family. Over a game of Football. Isn't that dreadful?

Sorry all I have been away with the clouds today! I see everyone is as chatty as always we will hit 200 before next week at this rate!

Ready for part 3 ann?

Oh, goodness, Jen.

But I am as bad as everyone else with the chat - I really enjoy it!

And at least I know how to start another thread now! Even if it does have to be in the "Diary" section.

Yes, it is terrible.

By all accounts it was the English team who played badly (despite them earning all that money!) which was why they lost! And no-one can blame the Germans for playing well!

I'll sort amex tomorrow, I had a good read of the mountain of paperwork you sent me today and have got them over a barrel now - put it this way, their stoopid smart arsey letter has cost them what, £10k or so? I will confirm tomorrow, let me double check (a fourth time) just to be sure - i'll have this sorted one way or another by this time tomorrow Ann - sorry for the delay!

Looks like we may get a record 18/18 unenforceable agreements - come on! Get in there!
