Find Ancestors

Hello Ivy,

Many thanks for taking the time to pop in and leave me this interesting information.

I will be spending a lot of time 'googling' over the next few days while I sort out the 'good' exercises from the 'bad'.

Unfortunately, being 'allergic' to exercise myself, it will take me a while to find some that I actually like ;-) :-D BUT, I will sort it :-)

Many thanks again,

Dea x

Morning alll~~~~~~~~


Sun is shining, rain has stopped and I now know that golf is good for the old bones!

We used to get milk at school but I dont think kids have that these days. Dea, if you put some meat on those bones of yours it might help, just carrying it around with you all day is exercise ;-)

I was a milk monitor for a short while but exposure of my black market trade in the commodity meant that I was soon relieved of my duties. ;-)

Oh nooooooooooooooooooooooooo


Just made a cuppa, got the tea caddy out, popped in tea bag and went to put the caddy away..............under the buddy sink :-0

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........................

Hahahahahahahahaha.................age will out! Love it! :-P :-P




Hello Ivy ~~~~~~~~~~ welcome to the mad house.


I don't think I ever rose to the giddy heights of being a milk monitor Jonesey; we are obviously in exalted company....... :-D

I was an ink monitor .... filling up the ink wells in our desks --- at my school -- only boys were allowed to be milk monitors ---coz the crates were heavy

and I was class monitor ... cleaning the blackboards and taking messages for Miss

I was always the top of the star chart ...............and I also on a special board for times tables ...........

I knew my 12 x when others did not know their 2 and 3x

It finalised the debate for me - on "nature or nurture" ...

when I became an Accountant ..............................

:-D

Sounds like you were a swot Renes. ;-)

unfortunately





still am



and I wanted to be the other sw............

a swinger !!!!




:-D

Hi all

sooooooooooooooooooo


this is post 36,210



who got 36,200 ?????????????/

I was never a milk monitor


but I was always tall for my age


and I loved milk, while lots didn't, of course.



so all through elementary school, at various times, we would be made to stand at our desks, there would be a lecture about people not drinking milk, and almost invariably at some point the teacher would say


"Look at Sylvia, she always drinks her milk and see how tall she is"



aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh

I got a mention on GR FB page ............

Where Renes?

But you hav'nt got your avatar as the GR logo have you :-D

ja...x

I used to take as many class animals home with me for the 6 week holidays......I loved that

I had mice, rats, gerbils and rabbits

........I was obviously trusted ;-)

:-) to Dea, Jonesy, Cynthia, Sylvia, Gins, Renes and Jax

I hated the milk in those plastic triangles

and I'm allergic to exercise too

...but am trying out the 3x20 seconds while the kettle boils first thing in the morning before anyone is up to laugh :-D

Ivy

plastic triangles??



I must be much older


............... we had little glass bottles with cardboard tops :-D

We had third of a pint glass bottles with foil tops...always warm as the crate was left near the radiator.

I have never liked the taste of neat milk so I used to take some nesquick powder to school with me.

ja...x

We had mini bottles of milk in the 1970s.....not heard of other variations?

We had Jubly's in those plastic triangles - sort of frozen orange juice - you would snip off the corner and suck it through as it melted !!!

School milk was always in glass bottles and, as Jax recalls, always warm.........HORRID !!!

It's no wonder I have never liked milk since ;-) :-D

You must be quite young in comparison to 'us lot' Ivy :-) :-0
