Thanks Juni.

Is it difficult to avoid exploding ginger,where you are?

Edit: Ginger is what we call fizzy drinks - you might say soda?

[/QUOTE]

We call ginger ale, just that, or sometimes dry ginger: and ginger beer gets its Sunday name as well. If you ask for ginger, they will say, what kind? Unless it is obvious from the context ( like it is your third drink in the same pub or something

)

Does anyone remember tamagotchi? Those virtual pets.
Found one when I was cleaning my attic and still working. Brought back some good memories from childhood(not that I would be very old). Ahh twas fun to watch it grow, but if it died you had to start all over again

I stayed away from those for so long...and when I did eventually get one, I got fed up of it and locked it in a drawer in less than a day I think.

I really hope that doesn't become a craze again...though I won't see as much of it anyway...not like I used to.
Tamagotchis, yoy-yos, finger-skateboards...tchhh.

[QUOTE=Ravager]finger-skateboards[/QUOTE]

*goes to try & discover what the heck that is*

:laugh:

Good luck, they might have a better name that I don't know about.

They're tiny little skateboards that people control with their fingers...the clue is in the name, see.

Damn I looked in here, and well felt forced to comment

(you evil people, you

I never did see the point of Tamagotchis, but it *could* be worse.

Remember Chia Pets?

Yay! I helped to force DW to post... :mischief:

Chia wasn't really allowed in schools...so that never bothered me as much...

@Juni, it's in my job description, yep.
