Robflh: Thanks again - In case people havent realised I do tend to try to be witty, it doesnt always works. I wasnt having a go about abbreviations just found it funny. I work in some primary schools and I dont think they can use a sentence without an abbreviation. I just nod and look intelligent (It takes a bit to do that) I try to be light hearted or I would jump out of my bedroom window (Dont panic - I live in a bungalow) When I transfer I will try to pay what i was paying each month if I can but it will be nice to not have to if its a tight one.

I'm here to stay - looking for tips all the time now.


Fortunately I have worked out its my turn to win the lottery tomorrow so this could all be premature.

I am sure you are not that innocent ;0)

AND

Just for the record, my van needed an oil change. Instead of throwing it in the garage I did it myself. Total cost £19 (and a bit of time) instead of about £90.

I think I may have the bug.......

Hi depressed of lincolnshire

Yes, the abbreviations did come out the wrong way, but only in part. The thought of you driving down the road and having your light bulb light up as it dawns on you that IFA means Independent Financial Advisor, was quite amusing.

You got a good nights sleep because you are going to win the lottery, I think not (Coward).

As for being a giggly Virgin, I would not say that you are one. After all, you have only just applied for the card. When you actual have the card, then you can call yourself a giggly Virgin.

Being witty is a great defence for many things. I sufferer from depression and have done since I was a teenager. Making other people laugh, makes me laugh and laughter is the best medicine in the world.

Unfortunately, in these days of political correctness, it can cost you dearly. A professional comedian can make people laugh on stage and get paid for it but if you are one of life’s comedians and you make people laugh at work it can cost you your job. That is what happened to me and I have herd of it happening to other people.

I am sorry to hear that. Political correctness drives me nuts. If you are not a single legged, single mother, transexual lesbian coal miner from Latvia who is a member of greenpeace you stand no chance.

Hi Seaxwyn

I do not think you are that innocent either and you have both got it wrong. It is Sweet FA.

The FA stands for, wait for it, Fanny Adams and it refers to an eight-year-old girl that was murdered in 1867. There is a poem about her www.johnowensmith.co.uk/fanny.htm

So if you have Sweet Fanny Adams, you have nothing.

Over the years, this has been corrupted by people jumping to the wrong conclusion about what FA stands for. Unfortunately this has now become the more common reason for the FA. That means the death of a little girl, the reason for the saying, is being forgotten.

Snafflepants

I never new that about where Fanny Adams came from...

Depressed of Lincolnshire - good on you for the oil change - its inspired me to have a go at changing my wiper blades - a simple job for many I'm sure but I have never even thought about doing it before!

Your name makes me laugh - I'm a Lincolnshire Yellow Belly and proud - but then I did leave Lincolnshire when I was about 4 so may have clouded judgement!
