Today I crossed the back field of the school & 4 little (4 to 5 year old) boys crowed up against me & asked questions. Are you in disguise? Are the police looking for you? I had a scarf covering my face to keep the sun out. The little girls at the swings stayed back. Looked apprehensive. One barely waved. Another said she liked my scarf--which was tan with no pattern.

After all it was good enough for Henry VIII! As for bopping to Beyonce> Well, I can't say I really know the lady or her music but what I have heard is as uninspiring as most modern (so called) Dance music ...it just doesn't make my feet tap.... perhaps because the vision of so many of my colleagues looking ridiculous pretending to be sexy young women after the age of 45 is seered into my brain. That and being told that they have no need for a man on the dance floor.... mind you the only answer to that is that they have never danced properly... Dance being the vertical expression of horizontal desire legalised by music....GBS. At that they tend to shut up! Now, if I could I'd, "bop" along with Josephine Baker or Ginger Rogers or some of the Professionals on Strictly Come Dancing and there is a mum of one of my ex pupils who comes from Argentina and Tangos..... BTW I've danced since before I was in my teens.... Never without a partner at school dances every Saturday.... I know I'm an old codger...but there it is.

BHB - We will have to start a fund for your new computer. I think Conrad has a spare $0.01. :lD WWW - One of my brothers phoned to share the news about his first grandchild. "Boy or girl?" I asked. Back he came as quick as a flash with "A child!" You would know what he meant by that. For everyone else it meant the baby was a girl! BHB - I would have said a girl. Look at that nappy. It is all behind her. Don't they have different ones for boys and girls nowadays? MelRoXx - I am glad you like it. Magpie - You mean you don’t bop to Beyounce? ;)

Girls have changed. I live across from the grade school--- 1st to 3rd grade building. My girls are 45 & 47. When they were there, girls sat around in little groups, talking. The boys ran around. Now they are ALL running. O.K. maybe it’s a girl. Girls have changed.
