I did the test twice just for fun, pretty whacky I reckon, something like taxforms.

Although taxforms are more akin to getting your legs waxed.....poorly.

Well, just two Days ago I got to wondering over who is at the other end,
like who are we communicating with,

Then I recalled an expression that some use, may have come from an old song,
"Tell me who you circulate amongst and I will tell who you are."

I have doubts if it is so, I have known persons from all backgrounds,
some are not here anymore, they have passed on, and some there is no contact because of other reasons, sometimes it is like ships in the night.
But I understand if someone lives a more stabile form then, sure, why not.
But it did not make much sense to me.
About the taxform thing, a few years ago I got tired of the pettiness of taxofficers so I sent a note and told them,"Take what you want and and give me the rest."
I now have four different taxoffices on my tail, they demand, and I pay,
and they demand and I pay, I,m pretty sure they have got the wrong person.

In that it's best to get it all done in one go but then you miss a bit and have to go back and do it a second time?

If you're waxing the forms to your legs, then I'd say you're doing it rong

Even though I'm in the U.S., I wanted to take the test just for fun. But when I couldn't convert (rather, I was too lazy to do it) between dollars and pounds I didn't get past the first page.

Yeah that got me caught out too, specially the K.
But then what difference does it make,
From one Pound to one hundred Pounds it is a matter of 00, and what is a 0?
Nothing really.

You spelled wrong wrong.
Or rather wrong "rong", which is why it's wrong.


I feel obliged to point this out as revenge for poking fun at the reference to waxing before I could.

I hope you feel all silly on the inside.

What does "Waxing legs" mean?
I never heard it before.

Well, waxing is a method of removing body hair. And can be used on ones legs.

warmed wax is applied to the skin, cooled, and then ripped off.
It hurts a fair bit.

Because of this trade off of substantial pain for convenience and beauty, it's not unusual for it to come up as a subject in humour.

Thank you very much Genersis,
you are a star.

It hurts a fair bit.

Is that from personal experience?

Nope, just from what I've seen people say online, and people trying it and screaming on the telly.

Well, I was thinking along the lines of the pain threshold but then actually.....yes!

Yes, epic fail and definitely a face-palm moment.

My nephews (who are the same age as you) don't technically class me as a video gamer because I never progressed beyond the Legend of Zelda series, or Mario tennis (N64 version). I remember when they were much younger, they politely suggested that I stick to those games rated 7+.

But I confess that I do love the Legend of Zelda and was gutted when they reissued Ocarina of Time exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS. I'm currently in protest over the fact that I've gotten suckered over the years into owning an N64, Gamecube, a DS right at the point when they upgrade the console. So I stopped at the Wii and now my all time favourite game is on the 3DS.

My kids are also Angry Birds orphans...

Thought I'd link to the BBC's calculator for the new socio-economic groups:

The Great British Class Calculator

I came out as Technical Middle Class though I based my income assuming I return to work in teaching

Christ centered class

Would that be the Gal 3:28 kind?

Hope you're doing well.
