Re: Are smokers becoming paranoid?

As some of you know, I work at the Ffestiniog Railway, this morning I was asked by one lady, sitting in the open air, on the station platform, whether she was allowed to smoke there. This is a first for me. We don't allow smoking while on the trains but I wasn't aware of anyone restricting it in th...

Yes, the Marching Band have been asked to lead the birthday celebrations parade. So presumably it`ll be on tv. School is also sending a birthday card signed by all the pupils (but don`t let HRH know!) Do you mean HM? Or is it that Philip would save the money if he knew someone else was giving his w...

Re: Girl Button Grecians

It will have only taken 23 years. But the 'fairer sex' do seem to have had their share of Senior Grecians, or is that just in high profile years like the Queen's Jubilee? It seems to be alternate years - of course, no-one will say it IS like that, but it has since we`ve been here! Bit of a pity rea...

Re: Girl Button Grecians

Great to read that at long last there will be equal numbers of girls by 2008 - not before time in my opinion! It will have only taken 23 years. But the 'fairer sex' do seem to have had their share of Senior Grecians, or is that just in high profile years like the Queen's Jubilee? What about the pre...

Girl Button Grecians

This question may seem naive to some, but please bear with a Hertford Old Girl confused by today's school uniform details. I received my copy of H ousey! today and looked at the photo on the front showing last year's Oxbridge entrants. It is obvious, to me, that all the boys have their Buttons. I am...

65th Wedding Anniversary present?

I have been invited to a 65th Wedding Anniversary. I found a website to tell me that it is called Star Sapphire, I then clicked a link to find suitable presents. Somewhat to my surprise the first to be listed was a video of '100 S*x Games for Couples'. Do you feel this is suitable after 65 years? :s...

We have received loads of emails purporting to advertise viagra and other 'medicines'. I get so many of these at work, none at home address. I complain bitterly to the IT manager who just shrugs his shoulders. Surely he should be able to block some of them? (Thought - perhaps some are blocked but i...

I am sure that "May" is a typo. 1953 was the 400th anniversary year and if I remember correctly the actual month of the celebrations was June, so I suspect that a photographer went round Hertford doing a "shoot" for some sort of celebration booklet or record to mark the occasion...

so how do we as a group as well as society resolve bullying? I reckon it is an impossible task to resolve bullying completely. However there are certain steps that might help: 1. My hobby horse. Stop the culture of denial prevalent in so many institutions especially schools. 2. Perhaps following on...

As I said on the other thread don't allow your upset to stop you from posting.

I for one would miss you.
