opas Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 [quote user="Cassis"]Does anyone else have trouble remembering left from right?Here's a tip that I advise everyone to take note of.When I forget my left and right, I find it useful to remember that the left is the side of the road driven on in the UK. Except by confused very old folk who sometimes end up on the wrong side of the motorway. If you forget and get it wrong this can lead to accidents, so I advise everyone to take note of this and act accordingly.PS They drive on the right in France. Mainly.[/quote]I wish you had posted that a few weeks earlier, I drive a RHD car and had borrowed a LHD to pick my dad up at the airport, I felt totaly cack handed in that car what with the hand brake not being where it should have been and drove the wrong way down a dual carriageway.................we all lived , laughed and learned!

Unknown Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 HelloI've been away from the forum for a bit and have just read through this entire thread. A couple of things have surprised me, firstly Chris Heads camp avatar (sorry Chris) clearly getting in touch with another side.And the similarity between Pun and a banned member, oh what's his name? Ou........ I nearly said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YCCMB Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 [quote user="Tresco"]Hello Dotty! How strange that after being parted we should meet up in this strange place. [/quote] Funny, I was just going to say that to Catalpa. I felt a light, but pleasant approach would be:a) totally in keeping with the overall tone of this thread, andb) a diversionary tactic which would deflect interest from the ringworm comment.[:$] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Hello Tresco, not sure what deely boppers are, I'm way too young. Whats going on with all the new avatars, I can't keep up, I don't know who is who. Betty used to be white cross I think and Mog and the cat was Lowondiesel, and Chris has gone all pink, did he chop something off whilst carving?Perhaps its a dream and I will have Bobby swimming in my sink in the morning.

Tresco Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I must have typed thirty serious responses to this thread over the last couple of days, before deleting them.The first would have been the very first response!Now happily, I've been distracted by the mention of Ringworm. I bet I'm the only mother bad enough to have a child who got it. Does anyone remember an episode of Star Trek where a scientist has the misfortune to morph into a beastie, who sucks the life out of the even more unfortunate crew member in a red jumper (who is always part of the landing party, and whose role is always simply, to die?). Sometimes they get to hold a tri-quarter (sp?) and say 'yes Captain' before their inevitable demise. Anyway, the scientist/beastie did his thing, leaving red, circular marks all over the poor chap. He was dead, of course.That's what Ring-worm is like. Ah, dear Dotty. We all had fun and changed our names and Avatars. Cassis went so far as to have a sex change. That Pip stole my wabbit too, but that was later.Mines Johnny Depp. You likee, or you want the other fellow back?. I'm easily led. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YCCMB Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I hung on to my avatar, as I need an anchor in an ever-changing world, and everyone else had changed into something different while I popped to the shops for a tin of paint. I was Tarquin for a brief moment but my name wouldn't fit into the box, and then I had an arm-wrestling competition with Miki, because he didn't want to be Betty, but he doesn't want to be Al either. He wanted me to be Gill, which is how the whole sorry episode began and I ended up as Betty. I quite like Betty now. But I'm keeping the headscarf.
