Well we need to have fun occasionally. I suddenly remember where I saw the writing with no spaces - very old gravestones in the local grave yard.

I found Moon growes the hardest.............

20 Jun, 2012

 

I wonder if the computer had problems with Moon Grower's? It didn't fit into the box, did it? Just shows how much cleverer WE are!!!

Thanks for all the comments , 2nd hand, looks like cambridge got it wrong!, all you need is a mix of letters and numbers, mg, perhaps they hadn,t got enough room on the tombstone,ha ha, at least we had a laugh, {better than all the backbiting that,s been going on recently},
Cheers Derek.

20 Jun, 2012

 

Yes we had a laugh and I totally agree it was much better than the backbiting that has ben going on I never wanted that, or to be part of which was a bit unpleasant so let's give thanks for a good laugh!

Fascinating.

Isn't it just Dawnsaunt! A friend has asked about the Doric which is a dialect of NE Scotland and am having fun baiting him with statements and words!

20 Jun, 2012

 

Hi Moon, that would be good to see.

In the meantime, check this out, just repeat the letters you see - hope its not too rude -

Lol!
Reminds me of the Latin rhyme:

Caesar ad sum jam forte
Marcus ad erat.
Caesar sic in omnibus
Marcus in is at.

20 Jun, 2012

 

Lol! Dawnsaunt all about Qing to pee!

20 Jun, 2012

 

no dont get that either Dawnsaunt. perhaps i'm dyslexic in reverse.

21 Jun, 2012

 

Oh like that one Mechisedec - for some reason I had missed it :-)

Lol SBG xxx

21 Jun, 2012

 

I learned that one at school (well - while I was at school! Don't think the Latin teacher would have approved!)

Do you know this :

YYUR
YYUB
ICUR
YY4me

Not as funny, but it might keep Dawnsaunt and Seaburngirl guessing!

I'd forgotten all about those until now!!

21 Jun, 2012

 

Gosh yes someone wrote that in my autograph book when I was at school...

21 Jun, 2012

 

;-)

21 Jun, 2012

 

I don't think children even have autograph books now!

21 Jun, 2012

 

That's probably right! I used to waylay all adult visitors with mine! My grandmother's was lovely, with little watercolours in it. Autograph collecting was quite a hobby, and not just from "celebrities" (how I hate that word!!!)

21 Jun, 2012

 

You and me both Melchisedec. I also had a diary with a little padlock and key! I am almost certain that teenagers would consider this totally uncool today but I thought it was great!

21 Jun, 2012

 

Glad to see I have unearthed some long forgotten memories for you, good to have a laugh isn,t it, Derek.

21 Jun, 2012

 

I loved my autograph book, at end of school term.

21 Jun, 2012

 

Derek - this was a very interesting and enjoyable thread - thank you!!

21 Jun, 2012

 

Yes Derekm it is good to have a laugh! Dawnsaunt I loved my autograph book too... No idea what happened to it though! I do have a photo album with pix from when I was a wee thing - totally embarrassing!

21 Jun, 2012

 

Did anyone answer this Melchisedec?
"too wise you are too wise you be i see you are too wise for me".
I had it in my autograph book at school too, about 60 odd years ago!!
good things never die!! Ha! ;)

23 Jun, 2012

 

Yes - I remember one teacher who wrote, when I left school,
"Never be flat, never be sharp, always be natural", except in musical notation - can't reproduce it here, sadly!

23 Jun, 2012

 

I guess that must mean the signs for those musical terms. I shall have to look them up!

26 Jun, 2012

How do I say thanks?
