They twisted my words a LOT again.

I stole a pack of gum from kmart when I was like 6 years old.. You think they will do a story on me???

i once stole some sellotape
I wanted it because i was making xmas crackers at home and i wanted nice red shiney sellotape and my dad wouldnt buy it, it was only like 20pence and he didnt have any change.

and no, it wasnt xmas just gone :D
... it was the one before that

Oh well. :)

ps. it was when i was 10.

i think he's referring to a transparent tape /cellophane ?

clap clap for technics.... :beer:

selo tape.... the plastic that is sticky on one side? scotch tape? or maybe just tape?

Thats what I thought he was talking about too but hes talking about crackers and im thinking the food crackers which wouldnt go with tape, so now my questions is what is christmas crackers????

Maybe im just dumb???

Cellotape is the clear plastic tape stuff. Christmas crackers, I'm thinking he means the ones you pull on both ends and they go bang?

I would like a story written about me, but I've never done anything worthy enough.

It's because he's in the UK and it's like the whole flashlight = torch, french fries = chips, bubbles and squeek's type of barrier.

*lmao*

Don't you love it when we can all be speaking the exact same language and still not a clue what the hell we're all talking about .

Makes you appreciate those of us here who don't use english as a first language. Gawd only knows what they make of our babbling at times.

*may not conform to usual English speaking persons, alot of problems with spelling, grammer and punctuation :) has also alot of words not in the usual dictionary and made up words :)

On the subject of UK/US comparisons, what side is the clutch on in an American built car? I would assume it's on the right, but I'm not sure if left drive and right drive cars are complete mirrors of each other or not.

I have a US built Chevy Pickup standard.
sitting in the drivers seat, looking out the windshield I am sitting on the left side of the car. My clutch is on the left, brake in the middle and gas on the right.

And there you have it, they aren't perfect mirrors of each other! The clutch is on the left, brake in the middle and "accelerator" on the right in right-side-driver-seat cars as well!
