I remember all this from when I went out with a girl from Great Eccleston in Lancashire. Can you imagine the uproar when I recieved a call on my *gasp* mobile phone in her local pub in 1993!:lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: Excellent


I had a phone supplied by work, in the early days of mobiles... it looked like a breezeblock - the handset sat on top of the battery and you had to unclip the handset from the 40Kg battery to use it - However the handset remained connected to the battery with a curly cable (similar to old house phones - pre-digital) I kept it in the car (on charge all the time) - The first time a friend got in the car that hadn't seen one before, thought I was trying to make the inside of my car look like..... wait for it...... Knight Rider...:lol: :lol:

His face was a funnier picture when it rang and I started talking into it.... I felt like Alexander Graham Bell :lol: :lol:

I don't know....why was buckley, the first to have/invent/distribute/make money out of/flog that as well?

Sorry, I thought you were asking a joke (i.e. why did the chicken cross the road etc...) Is there a comma or question mark missing.....?

You learned Cree? Now that's interesting. Do you remember any of it now?

yeah, lived in a Cree community when I was young... its changed a lot now, but when I first went to school, 99 % of the kids ( me being the other 1%) spoke Cree at home as a first langauge so they needed a Cree teacher for the first couple years at school to help out. When you're 5 you pick up languages in no time.

I still remember counting, vegetables, songs some slang and bad words. We had to take it every day at school as well as culture / arts & crafts. I left when I was 13... so 16 years ago.. so its really gone downhill... especially since nowadays its taught more to revive and teach the culture / language where as when I went to school it was the language of the playground.
