No; but in my 25 years teaching experience people who do badly in exams seem to almost never have watches.PasturesNew wrote: »Are you saying that people who wear watches do better in exams?

I'm still looking for a plural of scampo and spaghetto. I hope I'l find them eventually so I can order more than one of each.:)Is the plural of Rolex not 'Rolices'?

In that case, can you explain it to me? It went whooosh past me, faster than Superman.
Plural of index is indices. I think there are other words that behave the same way, but can't think of any just at the moment, and DD is trying to drag me out, which is somewhat distracting.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

My OH is losing out. He only gets one of the material benefits, although I do think the sun shines out of his every orifice, as well.
I cook sometimes, we both do laundry, and OH is far tidier than I am!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

It must be one spaghett .... and lots of spaghetti.
Nobody's ever said "I ordered spaghetti and only got one piece", therefore that must be the plural 0 -
There's a website for that .... probably nobody near to you though.allotment has produced 3 kilos of blackcurrants, 1 kilo of raspberries and a few more of gooseberries. i need to encourage some barter trading with various other people.

No idea what the first thing is, second thing I've only ever seen in period dramas on the telly.
A tie pin is a fairly pointless thing, usually a bit like a kirby grip for ties, to hold the two bits together. Or it can be a thing you stick through the material, a bit like a hatpin.
Collar studs - people's grandads wore them, and barristers do now. Not a posh alert, because they have to have different collars for court, which are fixed on to a collarless shirt with studs, as are the normal ones you put on before and after court (if you can be arsed).
Tie pin - £40, and only silver plated!

... which will look like a load of old tosh and have a ridiculously high price tag.
Maybe - but most barristers go for the traditional type, I think. OH's are ones that I bought second-hand, 18 carat gold, for the scrap value in 2000, when he was Called to the Bar. Gold's gone up a lot in price since then (-:...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
I should have used a fake name. I suppose there are a few Plums about though.So... was she pregnant?
It's well known that some women have regular cycles and others don't. The regular types presumably aren't affected by anything and won't synchronise with other women, but perhaps the irregular women can be affected by various factors, and maybe synchronising with other women is one of the things that can do it.

Yes she was.0
