Re: good or bad internet??

It is amazing what thoughts some of these adverts provoke. The Vodafone one about how your parents met.....where your father was when you were born etcetera really got me thinking about those topics. I got a real shock to find out that my mother and father married after knowing one another just 3 weeks......and no it wasn't a shotgun event. I couldn't have guessed that my mother or my father were so impulsive....mind you there was a war on at the time.......and their marriage lasted up until my Dad died.....they were married for something like 43 years....all on a courtship of 3 weeks. Sorry if this counts as a thread wander.
