I know what you mean Kaz

When we were kids and at school, time use to drag on some days, and Birthdays and Christmas use to seem like forever before the next one came around

Now they just fly around

Cool that the Scoob was wanted against a limo

I hope your youngest daughter has a brilliant night

Also wishing a Happy Birthday to your eldest daughter for Sunday

did you want to feel old? im old feel me

my youngest had his prom last week, was supposed to go on his Harley but as I had planned to ride it there for him (he is 15) ,and he was going to ride up the drive we found the drive way is gravel so him and 2 mates hired a taxi, Â£30 for 10 mile round trip instead.

Crikey you sure have it easy, my partners daughter had her prom last week, cost a fortune, 2 dresses first one was made to order and she didn't like the fit even though she designed it herself, second one bought from a rather expensive shop, limo for her and 3 mates, then to top it all after the prom back to a party new samasung u600 phone stolen along with a digital camera and shoes and money...

Hope yours have a better ending than hers...

Now I am old, bleedin old and skint.

OLD...hold on girl! hardly applies does it!..but if you think Old is the right descriptive...well? I reckon 70 should be the age when you get described as being old..as for feeling Old,sorry but i cant relate to that..hey if you can still muster a vicious sneeze without pissing yourself, you aint Old

And just for the record, I think you guys will have to settle for being the 52nd state. I'm pretty sure our PM has us ahead of you in the queue for 51st

Proms came as a surprise to me too, two years ago when my daughter left school. All of a sudden i was Rockerfeller and my wife and daughter have never been so happy together. Bank manager wasn't too chuffed mind.

Hope you ALL had fun Kaz!!!

About this American 'prom' thing. I have noticed the creeping Americanisms hitting this country. My PA at work even said she had to go shopping at lunchtime to get something for a friends 'baby shower'. I suggested a small umbrella!!!!!!!!!!

Is "baby shower" an Americanism?

We've had baby showers & bridal showers here for yonks. Hmmm... then again, perhaps that's a "kitchen tea" instead of the latter. I'm so confused!
