Thank you for helping me  Richard Barrett. I could not find a good picture and I could not copy her name correctly.
I still am too lazy to look her name up again, but I hope people know who I am talking about.

It is kind of strange to me how we started discussion of night clubs and clubbing and ended up with this lady.

I left to meet my friend when we still were discussion clubbing. But when I came back a couple of hours later I found myself going back into my memories.
It looks like there are only few people  around this evening.

I don't know what the topic is going to be tomorrow morning. One can never predict with any thread where they are going.

It was fascinataing to know that Millie likes to dance. I like to dance too in my mind. May be I should start going clubbing.

Yes, t=p, I think all of us about Imelda Markus's shoes!! Grin Obessive behaviour that I am sure, having worked in mental health, for nearly 30 years, I think I can savely put a bet on that!!!

Well I am a fascinating creature all told, I have to modestly admit.  Grin

I wonder what happened to all Imelda Marcos's shoes?  She had 1,500 pairs (not 3,000 as was reported in the papers - well at least according to her) and if they were confiscated, I think they should have been posted straight to Milly because I'm the same size and they would have all fitted me and then I wouldn't have had to buy any more for at least a month!!  Wink

Yes, I can see my technique needs some improvement. I miss some keys in fast tempo.

How can you see so much? Do you actually read what I write?

I will increase my keyboard practicing with a metronom. I should get that - = keys right.


Also I can do with some of Imalda's shoes. I am afraid to go googling for her name again because I may lose/loose this page.

When I registered as a temp many moons ago (well 10 years ago), the lady in charge of the agency came back after my typing test, patted me on the head and told me that I was the fastest male typist they'd ever had register there.
But just because I type fast doesn't mean that any of it is in fact worth reading.

Well my proofreading's not bad too.
I'm a bit too aggressive when I'm typing.
It makes a racket and I imagine that I would do myself some damage in the long term.

So that's how I got arthritis in my fingers then.   Sad  I suppose concert pianists get it too.

Clubbing is a mystery to me. Both my sons did it, but I would absolutely hate it, I think. Noise, heat... ugh. I like to talk to people.

I'm a terrible typist, but I started late. If I try to type fast the letters come out in the wrong order. On this new computer the Insert and Delete buttons are in the reverse position compared with my old one, which makes for some interesting mistakes.

Well you can go through life wrapped up in cotton wool just because you might get arthirits when you're older.
But where's the fun in that?
I'm in favour of A's attitude.
My sister's had arthiritis in her joints since she was a teenager (possibly longer, can't quite remember).
