MargieH 7,594 Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Chulla, that's actually in Matthew 7 verse 12 "Do for others what you want them to do for you" (Living Bible) Of course there's also the two ladies who were associated with the Water Babies (Charles Kingsley) There was Mrs "Do as you would be done by" and Mrs "Be done by as you did". The water babies always preferred the company of the first one as she gave them treats; the second one gave them what they deserved.... and some of them were naughty little water babies! What that's got to do with Bulwell, I'm not sure..... There's also Matthew 7 verses 1 & 2 .... Just call me Dot Branning (previously Dot Cotton) in Eastenders - she's always quoting from the Bible! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
