As a child it always intrigued me that my father could complain about the time my mother spent chatting to people, but then spend upwards of an hour at a time, several times a day, talking to the man across the road, Basil. When asked what they talked about, he would reply, 'nothing'.....

And they say men don't gossip.

think on this one and discuss.

If you start to dig a hole through the centre of the Earth to come out the other side (ignoring the complication of the hot bit in the core).
Are you upside down when you come out????

Never put off til tomorrow what you can do today... because if you do it today and like it, you can do it again tomorrow!

Er Noddy, quite apart from the hot molten core - which would quite spoil yer sandwiches - there might be a minor problem with gravity...

For jobs that are big, a mechanical digger is bigger and better and quicker.

Nah, Liz - I like it the other way round. "Always put off till tomorrow what you can do today" (like paying bills and other unpleasant stuff).

Hmmm ... the more you change who you are, the more freedom you have to define.

The more you free who you are, the more definitions you have to change.

Oh, this is so very deep ....

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

And if at first you don't succeed don't fly the plane for the skydivers.

I just bought a package of potato chips which came all the way from Canada ("Miss Vickie's") and the slogan says "the fresh taste of long ago."
