When summer arrives and the girls start wearing shorter shorts and skirts, and skimpier tops... and instead of thinking "Phwooaaarrr!!" the first thing that crosses one's mind is "I wouldn't let my daughter do out dressed like that!". :( :? :roll:

My God! Some of the sights I have seen today, you wouldn't believe! :shock: - Hot weather has this affect on British people. We suddenly get urges to delve into our wardrobes and pull out the most unfashionable and totally unflaterring items of clothing.

One rather large woman, with big white legs like lumps of stilton, had opted to go with the skimpiest, tightest pair of denim shorts I have ever seen. - She must have used several shoe-horns to squeeze herself into them. - Shocking.

... when the guys that help you at work (to carry very heavy furniture for a congress) and with whom you have lots of fun call you Mrs. Schauenburg (und "Sie") in the end and you suddenly notice they are half your age :cry:

... when you say: "in the (g)olden days this and that was better" for the first time and maybe nostalgically float through your visions of bright former days :)

Ahhhh, remember when we had to dial up to get on the internet.

Of course the internet originated in Yorkshire back then, and was made of a copper and tin compound from Sheffield.

Hence Northerners still whistfully refer to it as t'internet.

It's nice to be able to laugh at one's self. :lol:

Of course, I don't believe in these silly stereotypes (he says, stroking his greyhound)
