Easter Sunday - church first thing during my churchy days - 1 chocolate egg each. Boiled eggs for breakfast. Listening to the Pope on the radio.

As more of an adult:
Always certain films on TV:
Ben Hur
King of Kings
The Greatest Story Ever Told - who can forget John Wayne as a centurion? 'Truly this was the Son of God' or words to that effect!

And those other great religious epics:
Lawrence of Arabia
Gladiator
The Sound of Music
Dr Zhivago
Mary Poppins
Toy Story
Shrek

”

i remember those days...

I used to love hot cross buns and collecting them from the bakers on good friday morning.......

and then waiting till sunday for chocolate eggs and the easter egg hunt in the garden......

I find it interesting how religious traditions get absorbed and almost distorted......like christmas......and easter...its no longer just a religious festival....its more of a cultural event.

I find it sad that you can buy hot cross buns all year round....and that people forget that the egg hunt is only meant to be on the sunday....and not for weeks beforehand...although im as guilty of that as others, cos I love doing easter egg hunts at school....

Another exaggeration imo,if you think this place is starting to act that way

Really hard to reason with you,really hard.

Happy holidays guys

It seems like John singled them out, and this time he probably did but in the past, John as gone out of his way to make sure many different groups and individuals have benefited from his interactions. I remember when John had to cancel a PA - he found time later that evening to come on a web-cam and spend time with us,so we did not feel too let down. He is just a nice chap and wants to make people who care about him feel good. If he could get round each and every genuine supporter I am sure he would.

Let's hear it for the boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Yeah i was told how to multiquote by muggins (it was very in depth thank you) and i still failed lol

My thought for the day lol

Does anyone remember that time in the house by the pool when he was talking about how much he hated being like other people he said he was “anti-clone” -that cracked me up, i was thinking that probably what he wanted out of the BB thing was not so much fame as just to stand out and have done something different – it’s still looking for attention but something else.

Have to head off, happy egg weekend folks

Happy Easter.We cant agree on what exaggeration is and I dont think you realise how my style of writing has changed since I started training as a writer.It will show in posts sometimes.My writing is very different from 2 years ago and from when I worked in the NHS. I explained to you in the last thread and I dont know if you read the post?

We are on oposite sides of this which is very rare because we ALWAYS agree.There is no problem with that but it doesnt mean I cant be reasoned with.I think John James takes positions on things and doesnt move,a trait I might share with him.It may not be your cup of tea.I am not sure why you are

?.Enjoy the chocolate.

Click on the middle icon,the one with a cross, on the bottom hand right corner of each post you want to multi quote.It will highlight orange.Then go to add post as usual and open the normal window.All the highlighted posts will come in the order you highlighted them.Reply each one by one

Why is it that everytime I just sit down to read and reply I get flippin' interrupted?

I see you've all been busy since I last logged on so now I have even more to read.

Sadly, I have to agree with you bblover and to be honest if I hear anymore about it I may spontaneously combust!

Now I'm going back to read the last few pages....Did I see something about georgy doing something unspeakable with someone's bits?

I dont remember this...but it does kind of fit........

and yes John did stand out as being something different, but to me that adds to the attraction.......its such a strong quality to be able to stand up for yourself and to want to be different.

I was watching a DR Who episode the other day...all about clones........

its so easy to do what is expected of you, and to conform to the norm, but much harder to stand out and to stand alone.....

and if you do that, you are much more likely to leave yourself vulnerable, until or unless you gather a group of friends around you.......to give you support ....and encouragement.

Erm......Hi??? :-/

Wow been a while. Feel like a stranger here now.

How is everyone?

I feel like I have been away from school and returning to find all my friends have dumped me and got new friends.

So hope the appreciating is still going strong. Not gonna lie I have not read anything here for about a year it seems. Current circumstances do not permit it.

Anyway still very much appreciating Johnny James and his silence.

Might even have love for a few more Aussies (no names mentioned I might start another war

)

Hope everyone is well, happy and loving life.

Seriously I dont know why this in this thread now and I am being blamed for it

I ended it yesterday in the old thread and didnt post here last night,people were here debating their stuff including bblover.dididi brings a post in this thread and now it is my fault and I am exagerating.Why?

I didnt expect full agreement here and it doesnt bother me.This endless 'exaggeration' has started to bother me.I can voice my experience as a member of this thread. Now it is going to be me dragging it on.I have a right to reply.

Oh couldn't agree more. I honestly don't think I could stomach that.

I know I'm a long way back but three multiquotes at a time are enough for me otherwise I'm going to balls it up. Oops, there goes Mario's bits again.
