Yes due to connections and whatnot it takes longer to get home than it does to get there... now if i could catch the 1.30pm train i'd be home by 2.30pm. But alas no they won't let me. The 2.30's the worst... cos i don't have a connection to that one so when it crawls into Barnsley at 3.15 (as the 3.15 bus leaves)... i have to wait till 4.30 for another bus. You also forgot to add on carparking cost in the multistory carpark... that's if you can get a place in the first pl... and if your car's still there by the time you go back...

Yes well there is that... can i help it if i have a slight issue with certain women? Nope... do i want to help it? Er... nope. Do i want to help myself... (i need a badgrin icon here!!!)

Actually yes i do but as Edward says... no chance for embracing social culture in a car chough, ahem... at least that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it. Mandy Moore? No she's not on my train alas; but there are others...

Wow i thought i'd got it bad... 05.30 wake up. 05.31-05.59 get up. (it takes me a while) 06.00-06.45 get ready, washed, dressed, breakfast, stuff packed etc. (this takes longer) 06.45-07.15 (quick go on the internet). 07.15-c.07.25 (walk to bus stop and wait for bus) c.07.25-07.45 (on bus) 07.45-08.15 (get off bus, go to train station, wait for train) 08.15-08.45 (spending quality time with train) 08.45-09.00 walk to uni (currently work) 09.00-11.50 work 11.50-12.50 lunch 12.50-16.00 work 16.00-16.15 walk to station 16.15-16.30 sit on train waiting for it to start 16.30-17.15 more quality time with train 17.15-17.40 get off of train wait for bus 17.40-18.25 quality time with bus 18.25-19.00 tea 19.00-19.30 Internet 19.30-20.30 Assorted soaps for light entertainment relief 20.30-22.00+ Internet Anytime after 22.00 bed when i'm ready.

Well the Edward's were proclaimed kings not Queens... although now i come to mention it...

the jury's out on that one... She was proclaimed Queen but never crowned, but so were Edward V and Edward VIII. Empress Matilda was accepted as Queen by some but rejected by Stephen's followers and thus is quite often not included in the real monarch list. Despite the fact that she was in a better position than Lady Jane Grey. Jane Grey of course had her followers and was proclaimed Queen... so in theory she probably should be included as a monarch... albeit a very dubious one. The 9 days is what really doesn't help though. And that's Mandy Moore in my avatar (Singer/Actress) [i've heard her sing i can't say i was that bothered, i've never seen her act though)... but with looks like that does it matter?

In shortness... from Æthelred-Elizabeth II (Not looking at any books here, and in Coincraft abbreviation from William I onwards)... Æthelred II, Canute, Harold I, Harthacnut, Edward the Confessor, Harold II, W1, W2, H1, ST/MT, H2, R1, JN, H3, E1, E2, E3, R2, H4, H5, H6, E4, H6, E4, E5, R3, H7, H8, E6, Lady Jane Grey, M1, EL, J1, C1, Commonwealth, C2, J2, WM, W3, AN, G1, G2, G3, G4, W4, Vicky, E7, G5, E8, G6, EZ... It's that simple, i canm even do it with pretty accurate dates. Scottish kings are funnier... (others before like Roberts I-III, and i'm sure there's a David in there) then from about 1406 James I (died in his slippers), James II (Blown up by his own cannon), James III (murdered by a 'monk'), James IV (died at Flodden), James V (Died shortly after a battle, i think...), Mary (got the chop, many times), James VI, Charles I (also got the chop) etc.

Yes i could (i learned that off by heart by junior school... when you spend alot of time reading coin catalogues you soon pick it up), i can do them all from AEthelred II, and probably from Edgar.

We always had dinner at 12.00, until high school and it went to 12.15, collage went to 12.30, uni reverted to 12.15. Although i've had days where i've had no break at all from 11.15 - 4.15

t'is a funny time to have dinner...

Exactly... the stuff spreads and it's very unforgiving. One spot and away you go. Obviously wherever you had put them has exactly the right conditions for verdigris to form and spread. Hang on it wasn't a plastic jar was it...? you mentioned slime (that's not just verdigris i'm thinking).

Unfortunate!

I'll swap America and Russia for the annointing spoon.

Ah that's why the difference... We used to start at 8.55 for registration. 9.00-10.00 first lesson 10.00-11.00 second lesson 11.00-11.15 break 11.15-12.15 third lesson 12.15-12.55 lunch 12.55-1.00 afternoon registration 1.00-2.00 fourth lesson 2.00-3.00 fifth lesson We lost alot of time from lunch... college was different though... really scary. 9.00-10.30 first lesson (first half) 10.30-11.00 break 11.00-12.30 first lesson (second half) 12.30-1.30 lunch 1.30-3.30 second lesson It was nice going to Uni cos i reverted to 1 hour lessons again! (mostly although i did have a 2 hour one).

After Liz Taylor.

You probably get an afternoon break though? We never did...

is that mentaly or physicly possible?!?!? Try it and see, hanmg round with a group of girls for about 3 years... see what happens. You might not start dressing like them or anything stupid and you may still fancy the pants off of one of them, but your conversational skills really do alter. You'd talk about things with lasses you'd never talk about with lads...

Schools are getting ridiculous these days... i remember the days when term didn't finish until the end of the third week in July (this year that would be Friday 23rd), and we were only allowed to finish an hour early so we'd finish at 2pm rather than 3pm. And what's all this with bank holidays, everytime a bank holiday came around we'd just get the monday off, now some schools have the preceeding friday off too! Scandalous...

I do spend alot of time around women... this is not advisable cos sometimes their complex personalities rub off on you... man i could murder something with chocolate...

Ironically the hefty eye offensive women are the first to declothe in weather like this... *shudder*, *violent shudder*

Well it's sunny but there's a nice cool breeze... haven't seen any nice ladies walking round in skimpy clothes yet... but i'm a looking! And i'm glad Miss Moore is still on my avatar (other than on this computer).

and why has my avatar re-groatified itself? (i'm sure it's different on my home computer)!

No really why?

i've had another idea actually... I dunno if i'll get chance to send it tonight, but i can send it in two parts, and it shouldn't take too long to put back together.

all i did was enlarge it on Paintbrush, i didn't up the dpi's...
