Beth Tweedle is out isn't she? I think I saw on the news or something. She had a fall while doing a gymastic jump thing, looked painful. Poor Beth

Ohh yea! Just saw it in my inbox! Thanks for the reply!  Cool  And Arka - i have to say i absolutely despise Latin....... but that is my classes favourite quote - as it was from a rather hilarious story we were trying to translate and we had a rather strnage Latin teacher acting it out - was classic  Do you know what it means?

I chose it for 2 years instead of Spanish.. why i did that? I have no clue, but it was one of my worst ever mistakes.  I just don't understand the language. And believe me i try so bad to learn all the rules. But the amount of declecions.. and all that stuff. It's IMPOSSIBLE.

 I understand it......and could quite possibly recite all the endings to you now (bam, bas, bat, bamus, batis, bant.....vi, visti, vit, vimus, vistis, verunt etc etc  ) ......It was just soooooo boring, and i just don't see the point of it at all

They dont teach Latin out here, but once I'm out of school I plan to do a course or something.

hehehe.....shall we confuse everyone Julia, and have a latin conversation?  Now that's one language that quite a few people wouldn't understand.....  The main reason i remember the endings is that we used to have hand actions with them too - aaah good times....  Have you worked it out yet Arka?
