      Glad it's ok, as I've done it loads over the years!

      That's so good!That is the quote I'll use,the next time I'm accused of immaturity!

    2. Eleonora

      Eleonora

      As a matter of fact, this second childhood is so wonderful!! Mom says you can all come and play with me, after school.

    3. Athena

      You'll need more than a restraining order..bodyguards more like.

      Pah! I'll just put the RO on the mantelpiece with all the others.

      Hope you frame them Chrissy, be proud!

      So I'm guessing an Easter Egg is a Mankini?

    3. Janet

      Janet

      Haha, Marie!

       

      Just remember to keep the candle away from the lingerie! ;)

    4. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      Right, I've done all that. Now what?

  15. 22. Just because you believe you are right, doesn't mean you are. Keep an open mind.

      I have a longer list of names to whom I could dedicate this one! lol

      Ditto (as Chrissy) but i

      I prefer the term "quirky"!

      How can I explain this to men? Is there an advice for this too?

    3. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      If zombies eat brains they must be sex machines! Shame their bits tend to fall off.

      That's taking it a bit too literally... :D

      Don't forget Mr. Kipling!

    3. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      He certainly isn't in charge of MY happiness, yucky cakes!

    4. Raven

      Raven

      There seems to be a rash of snobbery about Mr Kipling recently that I don't understand. Yes, they aren't the best cakes in the world, but then again you don't have to spend your mortgage on one! His Viennese Whirls are still one of my favourites.

  19. 26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words. "In five years, will this matter?"

    1. Chrissy

      Chrissy

      Excellent advice. We get so caught up in 'the moment' we forget that there will always be an after.

       

    2. Raven

      Raven

      That could be used as a comment on One Direction.

      Yoda was the little wrinkled guy on Star Wars that gave wise advice to Luke .

      I will never forgive the people who cancelled further seasons of My So-Called Life. I'm sorry, it's just not on!

      Don't get mad, get even - much easier!

      Agreed, and who cares anyhow? Really. In the true sense of caring.

    3. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      Some people insist on telling you anyhow!

    4. Athena

      Athena

      I tend to care too much sometimes about what other people think. Wise words!

  23. 3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Change the way you think.

    1. Ben
