    You've got the clap now..? :confused:



    I'm sure I'm still 14. Starting to get old though. Never watch Top of the Pops any more... ;)

    You know you're getting old when you don't realise there hasn't been a top of the pops for a year:rotfl:

    SuSu, does Middlesex really not exist anymore?


    That seems like a really stupid question... :o

    Not a stupid question! Apparently, it hasn't existed for a few years. I've noticed that one some online registration forms they don't include Middlesex in the drop down list. I have to say I live in either South or West London - neither of which is true. It narks me because I was born in Middlesex (although I moved to Manchester when I was one, so class myself as a northerner), but I moved back down here 8 years ago to find that it doesn't exist!

    Apparently, Russell Grant (camp, round astrologer bloke) is heading a campaign to get Middlesex reinstated. Doesn't seem to have done much good, though. You'd think he'd be able to look into the stars or whatever it is they do to see if it's worth his while pursuing it!!

    Sometimes they just don't display on my computer - it's probably my computer, but it only seems to have happened since the site was changed. It's not the same smilies every time though, and it's not all the time.

    Not display at all, or display with a little box with a red cross in it?

    Well, I haven't got the clap now - I was reminiscing about school days :p

    I'm sure I'm still 14. Starting to get old though. Never watch Top of the Pops any more... ;)

    LOL! Just reminded me of when I found a video recording of It's a Wonderful Life a few years ago. The video was so old that at the end of the film there was a Christmas TOTP featuring Bucks Fizz (If you can't stand the heat), Cliff Richard (Oh little town of Bethlehem) and at number one....Renee & Renata's Save your Love!!! Hey, they don't make 'em like that any more do they!!

    I get a little box with a little line in it - not the normal little red cross - weird!
