rebelann1949 Yes, I remember @jaboUK helping me understand what terms not to use when chatting with a Brit, it floored me because those terms here ment something completely different. Does your English differ much from Brit English?

rebelann1949 The only poetry I ever liked were those funny limericks @jabouk used to post for us to read. As for Siamese, Tuffy likes to get Roscoe to play right around 3am which means I'll wake up around 3:30am, he's a clown the lil devil.

ShannyBananny @jaboUK mostly I have a lot on the fuse ball table . I had to take the baby to appointments two days in a row and I can’t get caught up on the laundry so it’s piled the only place I could set it. I feel I will cry if I don’t laugh at the situation...
