    Super! I'm feeling all clued up on the lingo.

    I never get to go on holiday these days, but I'll be sure to learn the phrase whenever I next get chance, and say it to the first person I see on arrival which will probably be a passport officer.

    I would skip the passport officer if you actually want to get into the country! :D

    It already surprises me that I've been let in! Won't share in public, but my loving parents gave me a silly name... :rotfl:
    She would always like to say,
    Why change the past when you can own this day?

    Wouldn't recommend that if you go to America! They have no sense of humour at all!

    Would it be possible for her to fly up perhaps? And combine it with a short holiday?

    The nearest airport is 2 1/2-3 hours away, so it's just as easy to drive up. My Mam said something about driving to so and so place then getting the train to somewhere else. Shame we don't have a closer airport or that would have been a good option.

    I'm sure she'll be fine, and besides, she hasn't got long to wait, it's next month! :rotfl:

    They always thought he never would
    Because he'd said as much.
    But then he thought that p'raps he should.
    (Providing she goes dutch!)

    So what has caused this change of heart
    And sent him up the aisle?
    It's 'cos he knows they'll never part
    For she is just his style! :D

    What a lovely poem! Did you just make that up? :D

    I might write it in their card! :D

    I've been meaning to ask you something for ages, but kept on forgetting. You know when you came back from Sri Lanka? Did you send a pic into a magazine? (Won't name the one just incase it is you!)

    Two photos from tonight walk. Went on a walk near where my Dad is, but not actually up the fell, but a beck trail.

    Feels good to be getting back into my photography again. I couldn't face doing it for a long time, but I know that even though I can't show my Dad the photos he would still be proud. :)

    No, not me! So you can reveal all!
    What magazine was it? And what pic?
    Am intrigued!
