:-D :-D Prickles,
When my mum was little, they lived on The Isle Of Sheppey (her military Dad was based there I think). They had an orchard, and her job was to sit up a tree and blow a whistle when people came scrumping :-D :-D

Mike- You are an excellent photographer :-)

As I was so tall, I was always told that I would be a Police Woman when I grew up. (This was after I realised that I would never be a Ballerina!:-( :-( :-D :-D )

I changed my mind when I realised that I would not be popular! :-D :-D

I decided to give up the idea of becoming a Nun when I was about 10 yrs old and was spotted apple scrumping in the Nunnery Orchard.

There is nothing more frightening than a mob of angry Nun's........ running towards you at full speed, with their wimples trailing behind them in the breeze. :-0 :-0 :-0

Boy, can them penguins run!!!

:-D :-D :-D
