But what happens if you DON'T own an iPad?
Mine is a Galaxy tab8. Can't afford the luxury of an iPad.

Or put up the leaving age for schools, what's a year at least the students will get real exam results. After all they have done it for pension age.
I agree with Mary, put the school leaving age up......to 27.

Of course Loppy, it goes without saying. Using the three dots only gives you an edit option on your own post, and that for a limited time. Then becomes like everyone else's, just 'report or share'.

Rather fancy the idea of showing my passport at Hadrian's wall and getting it stamped at Mallaig.

Ahh Craig Douglas Ben., Another one of his was "Teenager in love" also "only sixteen".
Once heard Marty Wilde sing teenager in love, he must have been about 46 at the time He had daughter Kim by then.

Read it before CT. Did the same as you and went west to east. What do you suppose caused that? I blame Brexit.

Wish I could "like" twice PP.

Thanks for chapter two Loppy.
But it's the first time I've ever had to scroll sideways to read it. Were you typing on a toilet roll sideways.
Still, managed to read it OK. Must say, I'm a wee bit envious as I would have loved to travel. Considered it when we first got married in '65, but when the kids came along that put the brakes on that. Because they were both disabled, we wouldn't have been allowed and if we were, I would have been bankrupt within a year !
By the time they both passed away, (1978 &1990) it was too late for us. I was diagnosed as type 2 diabetic mid 80s so that would have been another block. So, for the last 33 years we've been on our own down here in East Sussex.
Looking forward to chapter three LL. Take care and can I be the first to wish you, Happy Easter !!

Not relevant I know but I recall reading that in the mid 60s, if you emigrated to Australia, you were immediately eligible to be called up for duty in Vietnam. (Australians were also fighting there with the yanks).

One time, we had a dog and cat at the same time. I was watching the pair of buggers one day and the cat jumped on the sideboard, onto the top of the fish tank and knocked off the tin of fish food. The dog then proceeded to take off the lid so that they both could share the contents. I would have given a Kings ransom for a digital camera then.

This one especially for Ben and Jill...Happy New Year.

They seem to give out knighthoods and 3 letter titles like dishing out sweeties nowdays. Why don't they just give them to people who have earned recognition from charity work and devotion to duty etc. not somebody who wins a few races or scores some goals and wotnot. You can almost buy a title now days.

The rewards of a privileged upbringing. It's the strategy in the pits that win the races on the Scalextric track.
The driver is secondary. The races are so predictable. I stopped watching F1 ages ago, much prefer touring car racing. At least they try to overtake, almost at all costs. Sometimes it's a free for all, especially with the junior drivers.

That's enough of your corn.
You'll soon be scratching around for more quips.
Hope PP., doesn't get any ideas.
