if there were no newbies there would be no oldies. Well, people would still be old, but you know what I mean. I'm just pleased that I've brought the average age down to mid 30's.

Caroline Report 20 Apr 2017 23:16

Love to know how that age was reached or maybe I don't.

Eldrick

Eldrick Report 20 Apr 2017 23:17

Its a guess.

Caroline Report 20 Apr 2017 23:19

I'd guess a few people's ages but most no idea...I could never be that fairground person guessing ages :-D

Excuse me while I guffaw, Eldrick *brought the average age down to mid 30's*

I'll have you know, time on here - and sometimes it feels like 'time' does not necessarily equate to age.

Sorry, it was a typo Maggie. I always knew that it was a youthful patronage from the topics of conversation. :)

........you don't like cats?.......

Cats aren't an 'age' thing, I've had them all my life.

Scintillate us with youthful postings, then, Eldrick, but please don't use 'text speak'.

Oh I love cats. I'm just allergic to them. And tweed. They make me sneeze. Strange combination, I know.

I think I'll just go with the flow. Txt spk is rather yesterday, so I'm told. I would hate to scintillate anyone - I can just imagine the threads for the cures to that affliction and the stories of what happened to someone who was once scintillated but misdiagnosed as having an ingrown toenail.

Caroline Report 21 Apr 2017 00:06

What Eldrick you don't have an ingrown toenail not even on your little toe.....the tweed bit is just weird but each to their own....cats you're on your own I'm not defending that one ...

No, I can see an allergy to tweed - it has a particular 'smell'.
In my 'youff' I actually made myself a tweed suit - ah the madness of youth :-D

Scintillation merely means sparkle - I mean there's no barbed wire around naming your ingrown toenail scintillate - you can call it what you like.
If I had one, I'd call it Anthea.

Eldrick Report 21 Apr 2017 00:17

Absolutely not. I'm meticulous in the pedicure department. I find that taking good care of ones flippers is important or it just leads to trouble when you get older. I think tweed is a bit weird as well but as you say, each to their own.

I would have a houseful of cats but I'm not so sure that my Tourette's afflicted rottys would approve. Or maybe they would - best err on the side of caution I suppose.

I love Rotty's, - and Staffies :-D
I think it's the 'leg on each corner' look they have :-D
