Want to Play?........

I found this on Mrs Nesbitt's site, I told her I was pinching it so I don't think she'll mind me sharing it with you. It's great fun, go and have a play.

Oh, and someone sent me the Alternative Olympic Logo for 2012. What do you think?
Sums up the other one in my opinion!









Also, when I did the "Eight Random facts about my town" the other day I missed out the funniest one.


Heywood is known locally as MONKEY TOWN. Apparently stools with a hole in the middle used to be made here, and folk from neighbouring towns used to say it was so that Heywood folk could put their tails through the hole when they sat down because they were monkeys!
Just for the record I was born in Manchester and didn't come to live here until I was 13!

    You've been there long enough!

    Feeling a bit sad today, think you have been where I've just been. So can I just remind you I love you and don't ever forget...

    That's the last one, there's nothing else to say about Heywood, apart from it's a one horse town!

    They did a poll on the Olympic Logo and very few people liked it, there was a much better one - simple and classy. The alternative I've posted says it all - SHIT! (Pardon my French).

    I've had no luck getting into the site...my pc can be tempremental sometimes. The Olympic logo is a classic...and bet it was cheaper than the one being used for real!
    The Eagles song is so lovely btw....in fact I always like your music choices.

    Oh that's a shame, but you probably would have spent too long there anyway - I did!
    I'm sure the alternative logo cost a lot cheaper than the real one.
    Glad you like the music chuck.
