    I did see the picture and I can't say what made me laugh the most as if DD2 reads this I would be not be flavour of the month. But what one of the boys was doing did make me giggle. And these are future doctors. :eek:

    I'm pretty sure they are all just friends as she did ring me up for relationship advice about another boy the other week.

    I actually think that it is very healthy for both sexes to get along very well as friends I think it looks towards a brighter future for humanity. :)

    Totally agree. I sometimes envy the way my youngest kids relationships with their friends. The stuff they talk about these days, we wouldn't discuss with friends a generation ago. It's more 'open' these days and I personally think this is good. I hear my youngest boy on his Xbox talking to his mates about ALL sorts of things. Technology and progress. :)

    wrapped in tinfoil stuck in the middle of a bonfire :D oooh the burnt fingers n black skin are all forgotten when you take your first bite :)

    Ooooh, that brings back memories, when I was a child the whole neighbourhood would get together in one garden, we would have a massive bonfire party with a massive bonfire, always with baked potatoes in the middle, and there would be loads of fireworks because everyone contributed. Those baked potatoes tasted sooooo good on a cold bonfire night and us kids always had a wonderful time :D

    THIS! Nomnomnom.

    I think you can tell how much we all want things back to normal based on the amount of potato discussion :rotfl:

    Did anyone else used to have fried mash? My mum used to do it as a treat for me when I was little as I didn't like normal mash :D

    Yep, as part of a fresh pan of Bubble and Squeak. Just the smell of it in the pan..yummy :D

    I totally agree, but still find it hard to get my head around.

    How the generations have changed, and for the better.

    Still do - I make corned beef hash as a treat, fry up the corned beef for a couple of minutes then add the mash, and the mash has to be burned to a crisp on the bottom :D
