Haven't you read any of his other posts? He means it. Strange lad. And all this time I thought he was ok. Very strange boy. I'll thank you not to talk behind my back. In fact, you've reminded me that I need to buy some cod liver oil (in a 300ml bottle) from Horsham this afternoon... And no, I'm not...

Last St Matthew's Day, about 6 of us made it into the Tower free of charge. We had walked through London in the pouring rain, in Housey, as well as having got on the Tube. Londoners are an amazingly adaptable bunch - they barely stared!!!

Sounds like a marvellous occasion. As an update, the play is rehearsing well, albeit slowly - we anticipate a picking up of speed in the forthcoming weeks after half-term. Dare we ask which part you are playing Luke? I have two parts - Theseus and one of the players... I'm not sure who yet... Funni...

Who discovered that particular perk of the job, and where? I recall that school monitors were allowed to grow moustaches, but I can only remember one who did so. Why anyone would actually want to have one at that age is beyond me, though. I don't know - but rumour abounded that the SG could drive a...

I really like cod liver oil. I bought a huge bottle of it...much cheaper than those capsules. Its got such a nice taste and feel, as it slips down your throat.

Has been a word for 'useless' for about 5 years now. p.s. just to set the record straight , the squirrel was pictured in the Daily Mail. I thought records were round ??? I'll let darthmaul (or Ruth) ask the obvious question, it would just look stoopid coming from me. Excuse me! What question...? An...

Bitter, without a doubt, unless yes, it is filthy hot. In fact I was enjoying a 4pack of Old Speckled yesterday, and will enjoy some Hobgoblin later this week...

And Marmite with strawberry jam is amazing...

Well at first I was just trying to keep up with the posts (Ruthie does post quickly, doesn't she?) and then all the silliness started. Re. words, I'm happy when they come up with 'English' words. Not so bothered with words which have just been lifted from another language. Mad poster extraordinaire...

I seem to have missed yesterday's... Oh well, here's today's: fencible • noun (usu. fencibles ) historical - a soldier belonging to a British militia which could be called up only for service on home soil. — origin Middle English (in the sense ‘fit or suitable for defence’): shortening of d...

It didn't offend me, I was just messing about. No I didn't play the trombone, although I did try at a party in Streatham recently. Quite fun but singing's more my thing. So releived (i before e except after c) to hear that you have a sense of H Sometimes I do a silly post and manage to offend Very ...

That often. Funny how we seem to cotton-wrap people today isn't it?

And underwear. RR could tell us about that...

It saves on washing...

it may be seen as "uncool" among children nowadays to play with trains and this saddens me that people are possibly too worried of the abuse they'll receive if they partook in such an activity.

I didn't know we had one. It's probably rotted away in those sheds.

Does Maine B still play Bulldog out by the sicker in the summer before Prep? And what about the monster games inside the athletics tracks in the summers of 90-92. Do they still occur from time to time? For anyone who missed them a 2-300 player game of British bulldog was something to see The track ...
