I can't resist sharing this laugh from my friend Tony Miles' blog Maybe2day and he was sent it by Catherine:-
"EU Directive No. 456179
In order to meet the conditions for joining the Single European currency, all citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland must be made aware that the phrase ‘Spending a Penny‘ is not to be used after 31st December 2009.
From the 1st January 2010, the correct terminology will be: ‘Euronating’.
Thank you for your attention.

- I am 88 but I am very active in the Methodist Church in Caversham and Reading. My unmarried daughter, Sheila, is head of the English Department in a University in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, where we set up a charity, 'Edward Morgan Foundation', in memory of my late husband. My son, Tony, is a music lecturer in Nottingham University. He has his own choir (Ryton Chorale) and his own professional orchestra (English Pro Musica). He also has a world-wide business (Bass Bags) that sells all kinds of instrument cases. He and his wife, Caroline (who is also a music lecturer), have four adult 'children'. David helps with Bass Bags and has patented several of his inventions that have helped with quarrying, rail goods traffic and Heathrow's Terminal 5. Anna is married to Carl and they are house-parents at Old Swinford Hospital School in Stourbridge, with their two-year old daughter, Louisa and baby son, Toby James.
