Member Since: May 2009 Posts: 5,061 Send Message	Linda, When I was at school I used to be frightened of them! They were so tall and I was so small!

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 8,793 Send Message	ROFLMAO!!! Me, a nun???? That's something I have NEVER thought of being! This sisterhood is slightly different - good - but strict and efficient! Someone on guard at all times - we need to be when it's Allan we are guarding!

	When I first went to work there, I was taken aback to see the headmistress nun walloping a sixteen year old boy around the head. Of course non nun type teachers would have been suspended for something like that.

	Very strict in my case Allan

Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 24,940 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	8 Nov 2009 21:57
	I should think it was nun of the other Allan, but a little bit of this wouldn't have been so bad surely!

	OK Berona, I'll bite.... Why in pairs?? Allan

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 8,793 Send Message	Alan - you didn't answer me. Did you meet any nice bins this morning?
Member Since: March 2007 Posts: 95,208 Send Message	Allan	Report	8 Nov 2009 22:03
	My apologies, Berona, Not bin walking this morning. I pulled up stiff from working in the garden yesterday....not to mention that it was nearly midnight before I went to bed Allan

	That was just as bad as Allan Pat, Goodnight sleep well. Not touting for sympathy are you Allan?
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 24,940 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	8 Nov 2009 22:11
	My what a lovely singing voice you have Allan, not quite the correct words though

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 8,793 Send Message	Where is our Tec? Hope all is well with him and the duchess. He was here earlier, I notice. Perhaps he has something good to watch on TV - or has fallen asleep watching it! At this time of the year, all of the 'good' shows have finished for the season, and we get repeats, D-class shows and other rubbishy fill-ins until February. Much more interesting to come on here.

	Linda would I try for the sympathy vote? And I'll have you know that in my day I was quite a good singer....that day was the last Wednesday in March, 1960! Berona, like you I hope that all is ok in Wales Allan
