Hi iggy,
Are you from Milton Keynes? or are you just being sarcastic about the place? People usually are!
We used to live there until a few years ago.
just a small request to you all.. britian is not england.. england is a part of britian, as is wales, scotland .a lot of what you may think is english is in fact welsh or scotish.. it is like me refering to the usa as new york .. if this carries on i'll have no other choice but to call the usa canada.
Hi iggy,

i remember the date, may 15, 1991, it was the date my wife miscarried and a young life was lost.
there was no funeral, few remarks of support.
i will never forget the remark of my mother, well it never was really a baby after all.
I lost a baby in May 1989 when I was 4 months pregnant. I still feel the pain of that loss, even though I have had 3 children since then. I tell my children about the baby and how it was never meant to be. Even now I remember the excitement I felt at being pregnant and the intense love I felt for my unborn child.
i like you american ,aussies and other foriegners, but why are there so few british people here?.
you would think with all those people leaving the org in britian there would be more here.. come on you brits get on here, i want to see you posting.
Oh yeah dmouse! you and who's army? lol
I know there are some nice posters. I started going into chat a few weeks ago, met some nice people and then everyone disappeared! Was it me? Do I smell or something? lol

I don't bother much, cos I get fed up with all the childishness and bickering that goes on here! I get enough of that from my 3 children! If I posted what I really think about some of the comments on this board then I'd probably get started on! I've read lighthearted threads that have turned into slanging matches, cos some people obviously get a thrill from being abusive. Sad! Seems a waste of time to me!
anyone here who enjoys listening to opera music?.
i was just recalling the film pretty woman when richard gere takes julia roberts to see la traviata.
he tells her that she will either love or hate it.
ashi,
So, I LOVE opera. Really touches a deep part of me.I totally agree!
Englishman,
Lesley Garrett is just brilliant!
When I was in America, I tried the Reese's Peanut Butter cups, and thought they were awful, yet I liked Reese's Pieces (or whatever they are called). I love Butterfingers.
My favourite is any variety of Cadbury's chocolate.
Those in the UK can get candy from around the world from www.cybercandy.co.uk
why do kids love wellies so much?.
we went to buy liam some new school shoes and clothes yesterday and both lads wanted to buy some wellies - liam got green tweenie ones and dylan got red thomas the tank engine ones.. they wore them when we got home and didn't take them off till bedtime.
this morning they are both walking round in their pyjamas and ... wellies.
My 3 all loved wearing wellies - even on a hot summer's day!
T-shirt and shorts and wellies!!
So cute!
this was the first house i ever knew...when mom came home from the hospital...this was it.
i waited all those months to get into this world and come and live here...a peaceful home.
i had some toys and spent my days learning to ride my tricycle and then progressed onto learning to ride my beautiful blue bicycle which dad had brought home as an end-of-year gift for me.
Andee,
When I line up all of the tramatic events of my childhood and adolesence, I am amazed I'm not locked away in a padded cell never to be heard from again.
That's exactly what I feel!
I had a nervous breakdown 6 years ago due to what I suffered when I was young. It took 9 months of psychotherapy to get me started on the road to recovery.

just wanted to wish you all a festive time - take care handling the fireworks, but enjoy, enjoy, one and all.
do any of you participate in guy fawkes/bonfire activities?
i'm sure some of us yanks would like to hear about it.
Thank you very much,
We are going to a firework display in our local park this evening. It will be the first time for our 3 children, and they are really excited! We will be leaving in a little while, once my husband's parents and 2 of our children's friends get here.
We will be visiting the U.S. in a couple of weeks and we will get to know what Thanksgiving is like too!
Lesley
take a break.... close your eyes.....and go back in time.... before the internet and dvd's.
before semi-automatic machine guns, joyriders and crack .... before sega, ps2 or super nintendo...way back..... i'm talking about hide and seek in the park.
the corner shop, hopscotch, butterscotch, skipping, handstands, football with an old can, bulldog, beano, twinkle and roly poly, hula hoops, jumping in enormous puddles and building dams... when astro wars, 'computer' tennis, pac-man and donkey-kong ruled.... the smell of the sun and fresh cut grass.
You forgot Space Invaders, Blakes 7 and Dr Who. Oh and cherry brandy ice lollies!
Great memories!
