I'm sure in our heads we've all pulled faces at what our elders said, now we're saying the same! Funny how things run full circle. That's life I guess.I'm also noticing "moving forward" is trending at the moment especially in the work place and environments like schools. I think I would've said "in the future" which is obviously the same meaning. I like mine better!It's fascinating how language evolves. How words have many meanings and some words are no longer allowed.I get that, but don't like being "blamed" for words we used to use. These words were everyday language then as words we use today will one day be frowned upon.I enjoy autobiographies of famous people (not just Dallas stars) and a good crime, detective book. I also enjoy stories with a bit of supernatural. Has to be believable though and not any gory nonsense. How about you? I'm intrigued as to what those four unread books are!Ha ha! I don't believe that for a second.My posh voice comes from hearing myself on tape recordings in the past or things like family wedding videos.I  would cringe when I heard my voice and it shattered all my illusions of how I thought I sounded.Good for you! Hopefully your new found excitement will spur you on.With today's lives being so busy it's a wonder we get anything done for leisure.That's great! Banter can be really enjoyable when done with respect. Sounds as though you've got the balance just right.  I bet being at your workplace for 25 years means you know who you can and can't be sarcastic with and it's great that your bosses allow it to boost morale. Everyone needs a positive morale booster in the workplace.I'm intrigued why your colleagues are miserable, is it the job or just coincidence?The Dallas threads seem to be going quiet at times now. I guess so many people are just too busy. I read back on past threads and would've loved to have been part of it, don't get me wrong I love being on here now, but a few years ago it was buzzing with such diverse posters, many of whom no longer post.As I've said over there before it's up to us to keep it going, but it's hard thinking up new and fresh ideas for threads. Well I hope you've had a good start to the week DFF and keeping well especially in the heat.We're expecting a mini heatwave here over the weekend into next week which will be lovely and quite unusual for this time of year.Happy Wednesday everyone, hope you're all keeping well.</blockquote>
