My First Thread

Your thinking would be right
I took the time to photo that at the right moment - im so giving arent i?lol

Oh my. You are indeed giving, and I would so love to give back in person--repeatedly.

Ummm i was going to tell you what the other ones are like but then i went and shopped today and now i have far too many to go into descriptives lol
I may feature a few things in pics over the next couple of weeks though

 

[only_lj]

so you've dug now?

Not in the last few hours

 

[only_lj]

That is something that you really need to work on then!
How can I help?!

Hmmm i dont know, maybe you could come do things to help me along while i sleep

 

[only_lj]

Hi lj

I definitely need lots of pics, so I can recognise you when you are out wandering those roads

Oooh good point. I mean, you could accost every girl with red hair that walks by but that could take a while...

Not that I've been there, but the name "Blackpool" just never sounded appealing to me. I imagine a large mud puddle. And "Liverpool" doesn't sounds much better, at least as a name. The "shires", on the other hand, sound quite nice and refined.

As for Chicago, it is indeed very nice. (I still owe you a list of Chicago stuff, BTW.) Are the donkeys truly necessary? I could substitute, I've been known to make an ass of myself. *Ba-dum ching!*

Lol Blackpool is in Lancashire
I think Liverpool is too but with my awful geography i shall wait to be corrected - it could be merseyside but im not sure if thats a county in its own right or not.
And maybe i should join you on that idea of it being a mud puddle. Ive just trawled the net in search of pretty Blackpool pictures and they arent too flattering.
I have spent many fab days there though, its like the epitome of english seaside towns

You do still owe me that list, and the longer i wait the more "interest" i add

 

[only_lj]

Feel free to do the giving back any time!
Im totally over my attempt at being a nun

I think Liverpool was in Lancashire, then in 1974 (maybe) Merseyside was created as an extra county.

I could look it up but I'm not that much of a geek!

Half true.

The reorganisation of the administrative counties chopped off the South of Lancashire to create Greater Manchester and Merseyside, and other (smaller) parts were put into Cheshire & Derbyshire.

On the other hand, large parts of Westmoreland (dissolved) and Yorkshire, particularly West Craven and Bowland were put into Lancashire, for administrative purposes only

That last bit is important. The government announced at the time, and have done since, that the historic counties still exist with their old boundaries as pre-1970s changes.

This means that (importantly for me) the Yorkshire Ridings still exist, and (far far less importantly for me) Liverpool is still in Lancashire </Tykegeek>

Thanks for the clarification. And then postal addresses are something else altogether, e.g Middlesex now only exists as a county for postal purposes (and to give its name to a university.*)

* I haven't included the cricket team and hospitals as they existed before the reorganisations.

Ooops, I certainly showed my ignorance there. Thanks for the explanation. I'm sure Blackpool is nice, lj.

Hmmm, perhaps I should wait longer then, I don't mind building up an account with you.

Just give me the directions, and I'll be on my way. And I do believe you'd become a habit for me.

 

[Glyndwr]

Hi lj

AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! You've now thrown me into total confusion. I'd love to see more photo's of you but then if I don't I have the excuse of accosting all beautiful redhead girls.......

....I have an idea. Do you have any distinguishing marks you can include in your pics that I can search every redhead for after I've accosted them.

 

[OGME]

Well, you could check if they have a wonderfully warped random sense of humour....

 

[jaybire]

Hmmm i dont know, maybe you could come do things to help me along while i sleep

That would be mine and your pleasure!

Starting eith a nice back message, I'll work my way from, your shoulders all the to your toes!

You know, those shoulder to toe massages never quite get lower than the tops of the thighs do they?

Nah its not ignorance its darned confusing!
Now you know why i gave up on geography years ago lol

:O i have to wait longer? Ooooh the interest is gonna mount up

 

[jaybire]

Hey sexy! How have you been?

 

[only_lj]

Just give me the directions, and I'll be on my way. And I do believe you'd become a habit for me.

Hahaha - head over that very large patch of water and look for signs saying the north.
You'll hear me when you get near enough

Good idea and infact i do!
But its so distinguishing i keep it hidden in my photos on here :O
Do i have you intrigued yet?

But accosting all red heads may be a nice option too

 

[only_lj]

Well, you could check if they have a wonderfully warped random sense of humour....

And if they do it isnt me right?

 

[only_lj]

That would be mine and your pleasure!
