Thank you Merry, I like raspberries. Anyone like a bit of pineapple upside down cake? (It's dangerous leaving me with a recipe book and the leftover two thirds of a pineapple, you never know what might result)

I decided after a lot of thought to call my youngest daughter Naomi. How unusual, I thought, no-one else ever uses that name anymore. There were four in her class of 21 children. OC

***Offers raspberries to Michael as Margaret don't like 'em.......*** They go well with lemonade (I think....forgot what lemonade tastes like!) Merry

I hadn't realised this site played host to such wild parties. Of course, I'm too young so I'll just have a lemonade. Happy ¾day Merry. There were 135 people in my year at school, of whom 15 were called James. There were four Michaels, including, believe it or not, a Wallis and a Gromett. My own 7/12 day comes in a week, and just to celebrate a day early, I'll be off to Cardiff on the trail of my Glamorgan bunch (see RO board if you've any requests). I didn't particularly enjoy my 20½th birthday as I had two exams. Grr.

Know what you mean about the Sarah's!! I NEVER had less than 4 Sarah's in my class (& I changed schools 3 times) I moved to France in 1991 so I don't hear people yelling 'SARAH!! - STOP DOING THAT!' at their kids & me jumping out of my skin in the town centre any more - thank g for that!! It seems to be one of those names that doesn't ever completely go out of fashion (like Maude & Gertrude did). Sarah :-)
