I think he's just put himelf up for adoption! I'm not volunteering to have him, MBH is enough of a handful as an adopted son. :lol: :lol:

Anyone willing to take on an adopted son? I have enough trouble with my real one...
and it just occurred to me, if you're MBH's adopted Mum, then since he's my online brother you must be my mum too...

What's for tea? :D

That's what I meant - people on the Forum suddenly gaining new relatives.

It reminds me of an episode of 'Only Fools and Horses' where Del thinks Rodney's new girlfriend is his daughter. He said something along these lines:
"I'll be your father-in-law, your father will be your grandfather - heaven knows what that'll make Grandad - the Fairy Godmother perhaps"

:lol: Well, you can be my fairy Godmother if you like. :lol: But only if I get to have some glass slippers and a pumpkin coach to go to work in... :D

Well, it's very confusing when you're a rabbit who's been adopted by a giraffe and have a superhero brother... :lol:

I once had a superhero who claimed to be my long lost cousin.
But I think he disowned me a while ago. :roll:

Think it unlikely that we are related - I have got my ancestry back to 1726 and found my great great great great great great grandfather buried 10 yards away from a certain Mr fhakefpeare in Stratford on Avon. Don't know who HE was, must be something conected with Japan as a coach load of Japanese Tourists were taking photos of the grave while I was there.
Pretty certain none of my lot came from Dorset, certainly not if that Giant at Cerne Abbas is from life!

Incidentally had a few days in the North east early on this year (went to watch Lancashire marmalize Northumberland in the Rugby County Championship) and after trying to follow road signs that petered out after a couple of corners, roads that were under repair and diversions that led nowhere I realised why MBH and Clvrlad are so bright. Their local authority keeps them constantly on their toes to get home each night!

Actually, none of my lot are from Dorset either.
On my father's side, it's Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Oxfordshire. On my mother's side, it's Cheshire, Lancashire, Hull and Scotland.

EDIT File deleted. I'm sure those who were interested have already read it¬!

OK normal standard of drivel. Totally incomprehensible and unchecked grammar and spelling as per usual. Probably of no interest whatsoever to anyone with a life, but it's here for a few days just in case anyone cares. :lol: :lol:

If I could open it with something on my computer, I'd have a look. But I don't seem to have anything able to open a DOCX file - whatever that is.

I have no idea, but my computer automatically installed something that it didn't already have, then showed me a Christmas list my sister sent last year, before letting me read it!!! Never mind! Got there in the end.
