A thread just to say hi!

I am soontobe, well quite a lot I think.
I was at a crossroads about a year ago.
Husband and I took 1 route, but not sure we will stay on it.
Basically, my life has been in 2 equal distinctive parts so far.
And has largely gone according to plan.
But curiously, as others seem to be mainly sort of settling into older age, we are soontobe, well, we dont quite know!
Which in some ways is nice, as I dont necessarily like too much routine, but we dont know if we will move[where to, as kids keep moving all over], and business wise, we may sell, stay, move, downsize?
And kids are entering relationships, marrying etc.

soontobe's relative wot counts cobbles!

No, you lot are confusing me even more, she counts parking spaces!

Now I will really confuse the issue - whatever it is...

soontobe offers so much choice, doesn't it?

But who goes under a counter board. And has time to compute. And what's a counter board?

And what's a cosine?

Oh! The road sign!

I've got it!

Yes my relative counts parking spaces.

My post about her going under the counter board is in answer to a question from gillybob.
But it is in a wrong place, so even I looked at it and thought someone was using my name!

Perhaps it is not called a counter board.

It is a very large electronic board, which lists the car parks in the town, and how many spaces are currently free.
May be only some towns have them?

My relative is a very quick counter of numbers.
She evn manages to annoy herself doing it.

I do rather like the name janerowena.
Covers all eventualities really!

Yes alright! I know what you mean! We have them as well.

Sorry
Didnt know how usual they were.
I am not the most travelled person in the world.

It's ok. I was joking.

Oh good.
You had me worried.

A cosine is algebra (I think)

Trigonometry?

Ahhh
Cosines sines and tangents!
I remember now.
[thought cosine was cousin spelt wrongly earlier]

Cant remember whether they are trigonometry or not as completely forgotten what trigonemetry is or means other than it is definitely maths related as well.

Oh yes! Sines and cosines, I remember now.

Never had cause to use them since school though!

Have got Elegrans joke now too.

But must go to bed now.

I think the cosine/cousin mis-spelling was joke on tangents/relations. More intellectual than the nuns on bicycles.

We had a little book full of sines, cosines, tangents, square roots etc at school. It went into the bin when I left.

Now I have files full of cousins, second cousins, seventh cousins once removed. More interesting, relatively speaking. They will probably go into the bin when I pop my clogs.

Hello Time Wasters.

Thought I would pop in to announce that the hair dye was a great success and I am now officially a red head. Well at least until the white streaks appear anyway.

Its raining heavily here so I must make sure to have my brolly with me or I could end up with red dribbles running down my back.

What. Really red. Not just auburn? Wow!

I might do that. Going up town now so will look at colours.

Sun has just come out here. So I will walk.

Good to hear of your successful hair colour, I was reading somewhere that home colouring has improved enormously. Just off to do mother's shopping - it seems to have stopped raining so that is something.

Yes, I meant cosines and tangents. I did think it was perhaps a bit late at night.

Does the red suit you? I am naturally a reddish blond, but I add a beige colour to tone it down. I went slightly redder once and DBH hated it, as he doesn't usually comment adversely I had to take him seriously. I would love to be brave enough, and to have a slightly darker skin, to carry off a good bright auburn.
