I think I'm obsessed and wondered if anyone else is feeling the same at the moment. (Obviously I know Mr W isn't!) Can anyone tell me what they do to control this obsession/excitement.

:lol: :lol: :lol:


Firstly I would like to point out that you have a responsibility to the children that you teach to be totally professional and educate the little darlings, Secondly drown yourself in a nice bottle or two of red the holiday will then be forgotten as you will be completely taken over by the extensive hangover, thirdly continue first and second part until Friday......problem solved :hunf:


Firstly, I have a non teaching role and secondly I don't drink red wine. But some good advice there Mr W I shall crack open a bottle of Vodka immediately! :lol:

The thing is, when I pluck a sachet of food out of the box at random, a bit like a lucky dip, and tell what flavour it is, I don't get a reaction. However, when I tell her in German what it is, she miaows and goes mental. For example:

TH: "Would you like beef?"
Bailey: "........"
TH: "Ok, how about some RIND" (***hoch-deutsch pron.***)
Bailey: "Miaow....miaow....purr purr" doing a little dance around the bowl

Anyone else got any pets that understand different languages?


:shock: ...you speak German Tony...I'm impressed! :lol:

amanda n wrote:hey with the new haircuts we will have to have our passports renewed, i look like a convict on mine hideous.


My last passport photo was ok, I sat slightly sideways and did it black and white (to hide wrinkles).

Now they are much more stringent and my current passport photo is hideous! :roll:
