back from exile
 
hi recently returned to my roots after nearly 20 years away, mostly in london & a little bit in glasgow. eagle eyed telegraph readers may have seen my return to my old school, to give a little talk about a life of debauchery in the smoke. great to be back, salt of the earth blah, blah.......

Hiya, thanks for the greetings. ln answer l lived in Tooting sarfff london but worked in Knightsbridge. l went to Moor End primary in ossy, but was pictured two consecutive nights in the Telegraph returning to QEGS across the border. The stories [both] nights were a load of twaddle, & made out l was a designer still living in london, much to the amusement of my neighbours who've seen me every day for the last couple of months! lts great to be back- 17 years in London, & no friendly neighbours!

Thanks for you greetings,l'm really glad l found this place while looking for the 1891 census for Ossy. l was diagnosed with Parkinson's recently, & since l' ve been told l'm unlikely to work again, and l can't write, draw or paint, l'm enjoying banging away with my one sensitive finger! God l sound a real misery. l'm not l'm happier than l've ever been! Tonight l'm going to Parkinson's society meeting in Burnley,[average age over 70- but fab,] & three years ago l was pole dancing with Kate Moss, after my friend Julien Macdonalds show! Hey Ho, she couldn't dance that good anyway! lol

How do you pole dance with Kate Moss? I thought it was a solo activity unless of course she was standing in for the pole. :)

Re: back from exile
 
Thanks folks for your welcomes. l m just back from the Parkinson's Disease Society meeting in Burnley. l'm 40 but feel like a youngster being with so many old people- they're really nice. Though I peed them off, it's the second time l've won the raffle,[ a lovely hairbrush/comb/beaker set,[ which I'll take bids on.]Re: Kate Moss, the party was in a pole dancing club in Mayfair, after the fashion show. She is skinny, but the pole was def. thinner; mind you , free bar- l was a bit merry!

Parkinson's Disease Society meeting? Hi Garinda forgive my nosey bit, but it's interesting to here of people being involved with support groups. What your conection with Parkinson's.

garinda 23-02-2005 21:24

Re: back from exile
 
I was diagnosed with it last year aged 39. lt does mainly affect people over 65, but late teens can get it too, though it's very rare. lts a bit of a ******, l had to have a three hour driving test in Wigan, which l passed & they renewed for 3 years, watch out Hyndburn! Not very good @ musical statues anymore though!

Doug 23-02-2005 21:59

Re: back from exile
 
Thanks for that Garinda, I'm sure it is a bit of a ******. I wish you well. Whats musical statues then.

garinda 23-02-2005 22:03

Re: back from exile
 
Musical statues is the crappy childrens party game, were you dance around until the music stops. The 1st one to move is out. :(

Trust me to be thick.......If I had a brain I'd be a risk to humanity :o

Don't worry, lol. l'm really good @ shake the parcel. l'm also thinking of taking up the tambourine.

I should know better.....Where you live – to me the bl**dy tambourine is the worst instrument in history. The Sally Ann give me a tambourine in 1965 and I’ve hated the racket ever since. Well what should I get first, ear plugs or a gag. lol.

garinda 24-02-2005 07:54

Re: back from exile
 
Yeah tambourines will always be involved with the sally army. l always used to think they did good work, with the homeless for instance, but in my pc teens l found out in the 80's they supported the old South African government, & were involved with lot of right wing politics & used to give them a mouthful everytime they rattled their tins near me. 20 years later l revel in political uncorrectness, but perhaps l should play the marraccas instead of a tambourine for Jesus!

Hello Garinda :)

garinda 24-02-2005 14:29

First bid received!!!!!
 
Was sent a message re: the Parkinson's Disease Society raffle prize l won, offering me a bid of 5p!
l think perhaps l under sold it! LOL.
The set comprimises of a hairbrush, a mirror, & a toothbrush case all in lilac, with the mirror being high-lighted in mint green. All of this comes in a transparent zipped toilet bag decorated with purple polka dots.
Can l have a job on QVC now?
Last month l won a massive tin of Belgian chocolates which l scoffed all by myself!
P.S. The lovely set comes new not second- hand.

mez 24-02-2005 14:33

Re: back from exile
 
if your coming on saturday gardina why not bring it with you & we will raffle it off for you proceeds to your society?

garinda 24-02-2005 14:46

Re: back from exile
 
lf l come, which l really will try to. That's a really nice thought. They asked me to join the commitee last night with regard to raising awareness & raising money, so that'd be a good start. l'm doing another talk @ my old school in 2 weeks about my former career, and also having Parkinson's sadly it's just for the pupils as l'm sure you;d all like to hear me! By the way Maz, my Mum got a really good gel for artheritis fom the health place in the Arndale, l'll find out what it's called, it works like magic for her.

mez 24-02-2005 14:50

Re: back from exile
 
good hope you can make it, thanks for the thoughts on artheritis.

garinda 25-02-2005 06:17

Re: back from exile
 
Feeling A bit guilty now, if you saw the afore mentioned travel set in any of the pound shops you'd think it was vastly overpriced! Lol.

mez 25-02-2005 09:49

Re: back from exile
 
yea but its the fun of the raffle dont worry, you should have seen the xmas pressies that we dished out? fun but cheap he he he?

garinda 25-02-2005 10:12

Re: back from exile
 
Lol, ok l'll bring it, l won't be able to remain annonynous, you'll all know garinda's the one clutching the polka dot toilet bag!
p.s. am going to my Mum's for tea so l'll get the name of the gel maz.

Hello garinda, welcome to the world of Accyweb. :wave:

What year did you leave Moor End, and who were your teachers?
I was one of the lucky ones who managed to avoid Mrs Cross and Mr Britcliffe. (Yep, the same one who is so often derided elsewhere on this site). :D

garinda 25-02-2005 17:46

Re: back from exile
 
Hi l was @ Moor End, from 7 th jan, 69 [my 4th birthday!] until july 76. best teacher was Chris Ryan, also Mrs Owen [ whom l still see,]- others were...... Mrs Alvin, Mr Batty, Mrs Chapman, Head was Mr Green, sec was Mrs Proctor.
Did you have to dance round the May pole? Did you have to do country dancing @ lunchtime?
Missed Peter though- he taught my brother, the kids liked him!

Maybe he should try going back to teaching then, Council work deffinately isn't his forte!

garinda 25-02-2005 18:02

Re: back from exile
 
l know! He should have stuck to selling frocks in his shop, or teaching. The council is a disgrace. My Mum says he throws a good party on New Year's Day though! [She doesn't support his politics, she just knows him!]
Who wants to picket the party with me, 1st Jan. 2006?

garinda 25-02-2005 18:17

Re: back from exile
 
Sparkologist from your date of birth you were in the same class as my brother & my cousin, how did you avoid Britcliffe? Tho only good thing for us is that you didn't vote to send him to Westminster. l was in Scotland then, & our MP was George Galloway! Before he was thrown out of the Labour party for being anti -war, & being chummed up with Saddam.

g78 25-02-2005 18:50

Re: back from exile
 
LOL I attended Moor End for a couple of years and also had to dance the Maypole. My mum even has photo's of me hand in hand with some girl whilst both wearing stylish bandoliers decorated with flowers lol...... how sweet I was.

Re: back from exile
 
Again, thanks for your welcomes. l wonder if they still dance round the May pole @ Moor End? lt's strange really, all these kids dancing round a giant phallus in what was originally a pagan fertility rite. They also chose a Queen of the May, & l was her partner, luckily my Mum doesn't have any photos! My claim to fame @ the school was l never lost a race @ the sports day, winning both races each year in the tall boys section 69-76, & l have the certificates to show any doubters! Strange how l ended up in fashion & not @ the Los Angeles olypics!

Hi Garinda, Yes they do still dance around the maypole @ moorend. luke just 2 posts up is @ moorend school :)

Oh my God, Rinda has a hangover! My neighbours knocked on my door saying that someone wanted to meet me. This was @ 10pm last night. They certainly did want to me as l've just come in! Not such a good idea, as l'm not really supposed to drink that much. & l was saving myself for tonight @ The Arden! l thought l'd led a debauched life in London- it was childs play to the night l just spent with some of Ossy's finest! Lol.

I may pop in to chat for a natter but you'll have to show me the ropes I'm a little bit new to chat :o it will probably be acceptable to call me a chat room virgin !

Re: back from exile
 
Hello Tinkerbelle, l'm afraid we only use ropes and that sort of stuff on the last Saturday of the month.
