I think a lot of women from that era had a unique classiness to them. They were pretty and conservative but in a good way. :)

You've hit the nail on the head there. I LOVE conservative, modest, classy women (they're the only kind I care for), but rather dislike bigoted women. The two are NOT the same thing, they way too many people assume.

I should dig out a photo of my grandmother when she was a young woman. She was beatiful herself with the same short dark curly hair that was popular in that era.

I agree 100%. Being truly conservative is not as bad as everyone thinks it is.

Queen Elizabeth II wanted to be a truck mechanic during World War II.

That's pretty cool! 8)

And here are some photos of my own grandmother I dug out. She was rather classy herself like most women of that era. :D

Perhaps the UK should get more air-conditioning. The summer climate is becoming more like New York’s.

Hello Kraftie, we have it in the shop I work in now; I think it's giving me a sore throat. I've

never had it at any of my other jobs (and the heating's good too :D ) it beats melting but I'm not sure if the more

we have AC the more the heat affects people when they don't. Also it might keep people indoors and in their cars.

Does that make sense? I have put my new freezer to good use and bought these

Image

I wanted chocolate mint chip but they had none but these were really nice. I had the last one last night, I

shouldn't get anymore... but..... I will leave the decision to WP.

Cast your votes, can fluffy have some more ice cream cones yes/no, ImageorImage
