When our daughter was 5 we used to practice the alphabet by asking for words that began with certain letters.
She did a few and when asked about something beginning with 'o' she thought for a moment and then said;
oooohhhhh the grand old duke of york....
Hope you have a good time

8 year old daughter comes home from school and asked her mum what a shag was
Mum explained it's a not very nice name for sex. (We've been there and done the sex talk)
Mum 'Why do you ask?'
Daughter' Well J asked me and A if we had had a shag.'
Mum 'What did you say?'
Daughter 'We said yes 'cos we didn't know what it was'
Maybe you should look at what other benefits the two jobs offer.
Is it's better to be a big fish in a small pond but with limited rescources.
Or is it better to be a small fish in a big pond with far more rescources available to you.
Does one offer a better pension scheme? (Although these days who's to say what might happen to it)
Are the promotion prospects better in one company than the other?
Some thoughts to dither over.

Well Done :smile2:
Is that the first test you've done for a few years?

I've got to agree with Se7endriver. meeting people on the net is so much different from meeting in real life.
I think that first impressions are based a lot on 'chemistry'. And if that isn't right, then that can give a very wrong impession about somebody.
Of course there are two types of first impression. The romantic kind, do you actually fancy somebody in the flesh after speaking to them on the net? Or the non-romantic kind, where you like a person purely because of their personality. If that is the case then meeting will probably not change anything as it is their personality you have got to know without the encumberance of physical attraction.
We are all attracted to people initially by their looks if we are looking for a romantic type of relationship. But I have personally met some gorgeous looking people who I really did not like, although I was physically attracted to them.
On the other hand, to use a better word, 'plain ' people can sometimes, and very often do have wonderful, fun personalities, and are actually very attractive people.
I have never met anybody from the forum yet, but I have formed impressions of them, and you have formed an impression of me, based entirely on what I have said.
I wonder if those impressions will hold when we meet each other in the flesh (so to speak)

I think it is every 16 year old boys dream to be seduced by an older woman.
Mature women are just that, mature. In body, but in mind also, and comfortable to experiment with sex, not shy to touch, and enjoy sex because they do.
And I think the same can be said for men. As I have got older, I get more satisfaction from giving pleasure than I do from receiving, and I think most men would agree with that. There is none of the frantic rush to make sure that you are satisfied. Now we are older, Mrs Fac and I are both comfortable that one can climax and not the other, but when we were younger it was so important that we were both satisfied every time.
I think women are so sexy in their thirties and forties, and I would choose one in this age group any time over somebody in their teens.

I know I'm going to get some stick for this but we are never attracted to people who don't spell correctly and have lots of typos. Maybe it's the teacher in me (erhem... no comments please) but we have always wanted people who we are able to hold a good conversation with. Good English skills are a good indication of a person's intelligence.
I know some people do have problems with English, but if you know you do, then type it into Word first, do a spell and Grammar check, and then copy and paste into here. And there is a preview button for the posts so you can check what it looks like and whether there are any typos. (let's hope I haven't put any into mine)

I've heard the kids at school talk about something called idrive.
I've just done a search on google and it does seem that you can upload data etc onto an online storage facility. Not sure how big or other issues but worth a look

The kids at school are always talking about the latest game, and I am sure that this particular one has been mentioned.
Therefore the games are being passed around kids, some as young as 13. I think kids are influenced by what they see and do, and as others have pointed out, they must have some sort of 'dulling' effect.
It is common to see kids emulating the kung fu type film star, where they think they've suddenly become martial arts experts, and this sort of behaviour is also seen when they've been to see the latest war film. I've heard many a story by some teenage boy about how they would get an uzi (?) machine gun, and shoot some poor sod. Alright the reality is that given the chance, that they wouldn't be able to, but their minds are being pointed towards violence, and having their senses dulled by what they see.
I'm a great believer in kids being allowed to be kids.
