Hi Taff

Definitely not me! Have used the the other side of Friends and Genes but not a message board so far. As for taking the mikey, not at all that was her name and for info the stipend is only worth 75p in new money

Hi Ellan and everyone. Hope you all had a nice Christmas. Some lovely names there. Wonder what names will be fashionable in 20 years, I can't imagine. 100 years ago people would have thought you weird if you called your kids Chelsea, Demi, Kyle, Britney etc.

~~~ to Ellan, and everyone ~~~~ good thank you Ellan :o))

I love these names of our G.Grand parents and Grandparents. The more unusual ones need to make a comeback.
