Did you learn the "times table" past 10?
Just asking like.
We did, but that was in the 1960's when we still had pounds, shillings and pence.
I did hear from a friend, that their kids were never taught to do their 11 and 12 times tables at school, as it was thought that as everything was decimal nowadays, that learning 11 and 12 times was irrelevant.

It’s the norm now for teenage lasses to be fat as fuck and proud of it .
Driving back through the town yesterday down Chester rd and the amount of young lasses with their git big darbys uncovered and hanging out had me agog .
They all had that “Instagram “ makeup on aswell .

Nowt wrong with fat lasses ,they are quite attractive when presented properly but these youngens certainly are not doing themselves any favours like .

There's part of me admirers their self confidence tbf. Absolutely no fucks given.

Aye there’s a real man of conviction!

I got married in a church because it was £150 cheaper than getting married in the reception venue!
