Nice one Kense...typical Allan :-D :-D

Rollo funny you should mention Betty Boop....I saw a car today covered in Betty Boop pictures with a personalised plate for UBETTY....... :-)

I didn't see the first post, but the rest of it isn't at all offensive!! :-) :-)

If I was a vain person I'd say someone was out to get me...but then I'm not at school in the playground any more...but some are

Oh as I typed that it was restored and my memory was wrong

:-D

In the US and Canada, just say I'll wake you in the morning or I'll give you a call in the morning.

The knocker upper was a common sight, with his long pole to tap on bedroom windows and wake up people to start their early morning shift.

:-D :-D :-D
