I thought we couldnt say that!
It changes from time to time. Usually under the pressure of ridicule.
There was a time when you could say ar·se , but not as·s .

What the hell posesses them to buy that stuff, its
not cheap either! The guy I saw yesterday, the one who told me I was a "skinny witch" had a chain around his neck that must have cost a bomb. Makes you wonder where the money comes from though as I dont think they are all high executive earners somehow:rolleyes:
Well he may just have the gold-coated silver ones. They look the same apart from when they wear and they need re-coating.

I'd take the attitude that it's best under supervision - but if any one of them plays up, then it all goes dry instantly - dryer than a Mormon convention in the Gobi desert.
Very apt as we have a large Mormon temple nearby....:rotfl: :rotfl:
I once did this with dd1, she had mates over and i bought 1 bottle of wkd! It was quite a large one and went in about 5 mins, i told them there was no more....totally uncool mum i was-but i wasnt bothered.:cool:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Oh and KEREN- that pearl drops whitening paint is rubbish, just looks like you have been eating a glitter glue pen. And it puts a weird coating on your teeth that you can feel with your toungue.
have I missed something???????
When I was 14 or 15 Johnson and Johnson brought out one of the first fake tans that was available - it cost a bloody fortune (around £15 if remember and that was 1984) and it was only available in House of Fraser (ooh, get me, so posh then!).
I put it on my legs. God, I was so, so, lucky I didn't put it anywhere near my face. It went bright orange after an hour or so and very, very streaky. I sat in the bath scrubbing my legs for ages, but it didn't make a difference. Awful stuff. Bloody awful stuff.
Luckily 'ecru' tights were all the rage so I wore tights. I could still see it through it though. :rolleyes:
"Stay Wonky":D

Look like this:

And he'll come over all hot and heavy.
He might even want to share a tab...
:rotfl: :rotfl: Z, you nutter, God, sharing tabs I have actually done that. My best friend and I used to get one tab and a match for 5p at local shop and share it when we were about 15:rotfl: Thankfully I didnt get addicted, how much is it for a pack of 20 now anyway?But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -

I just had this image in my head-other ,the chavvy ones of a hen, with gold jewellery, and one of those hats on:rotfl: :rotfl: ,

You're not there to be a cool mum, you're there to be a responsible one. If they've got complaints - tell them to go to the pub..."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
