Never really understood that term AS? I guess it's a leftover from the days when young "ladies" had to have an escort when they went walking with a beau! How about "spooning", what's that all about?? I know one meaning (lol) but can't Imagine that it meant that years ago? :-D

Good evening Nikkers, couldn't help but "thank you" very clever, how on earth do you find them. Hope your week goes well. Regards, Bulpit

Nikkers

Hoping the same for you too.

I have lots of them, but many have pic's with them and I can seldom write a post where it allows me to put a picture in. This site seems quite temperamental at times, don't know why? Other times it's fine - very odd! Glad you liked them. XX

They're funny...lol...actually...a bit like Oirish jokes...!

Nikkers - were you the one who carried out the burglary in that Christmas cracker factory last week and stole all the mottoes....? lololol
