Anyway, when I asked Daisy if we looked like a normal family.  Her reply was “No, thank God!”


Had a laugh-out-loud moment at that. Begs the question - what is a "normal" family? smile.gif

Meant to ask you, Frances - we watched that Shetland drama and I noticed the main character always referred to the town as "Lerrick". I'd always understood it was pronounced with the 'w' and not like Berwick, so how do the locals say it?

I am finding out about the pronunciation of Lerwick.

We call it The Big L!

Just reminded me of this....

A duck is standing at the edge of the pavement, patiently waiting to cross the road.
A passing chicken turns to him and says casually
"I wouldn't do that if I were you, mate; you'll never hear the end of it."  clown.gif
