Mum and I are having an unofficial contest - who has the most pageviews/visits/etc?
I have 5 pageviews from Russia, 1 from Germany and one from Paraguay. She's got some from Germany and other places too. I have over 650 total pageviews, but she has a lot more (won't say exactly how many... :)) So, Ithink she's kinda 'winning' at the moment.
BUT I WON'T LET HER GET AWAY WITH IT!!!! :)
I'll tell all my Facebook friends and see what happens.
ReplyDeleteJust put a comment on The Life of a Life blog on the violine non-practice. I've put out a tweet which goes on my Facebook page. I wonder how many visits that will bring on.
ReplyDeletehaha. ok. :) Mum has 10 followers - I have six, I think. :P
ReplyDeletelooking forward to seeing you tomorrow!!!!!! Can't wait
ReplyDeleteThe New European Language! (Read Aloud For Best Effect.)
ReplyDeleteThe European Union commissioners have announced that agreement has been reached to adopt English as the preferred language for European communications, rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five-year phased plan for what will be known as EuroEnglish (Euro for short).
In the first year, "s" will be used instead of the soft "c." Sertainly, sivil servants will resieve this news with joy. Also, the hard "c" will be replaced with "k". Not only will this klear up konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik emthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced by "f". This will make words like fotograf" 20 persent shorter.
In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of silent "e"s in the languag is disgrasful, and they would go.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" by "z" and "w" by " v".
During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou", and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubls or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech ozer.
Ze drem vil finali kum tru.
That's hilarious!!!! I could hardly focus on what it was saying, I was trying so hard to understand the words themselves!!! hahah! :)
