For a couple of days I had to do without my pc and thought my right arm had been cut off!! How did we get on before we had these things I wonder? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

We got along just fine and to tell you the truth I think everyone was a lot healthier for it. We had to use our brains more and our imaginations as kids. We also got a lot more exercise. We were told to go outside and play no matter the weather. I am glad for technology but I do miss the old days. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I think I would actually go thru withdrawal if I couldn't find the camera ! How silly is this ! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Thank goodness for modern technology! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I watched a man die last year who couldn't live without his fags, it was a long drawn out painful death, and now he's on the other side craving a fag and not being able to get one.
