Rosamund: Which part of Europe is that? From what I know, people usually just eat a lot of pancakes on Shrove Tuesday... :)

Oct-11-2006 15:20

Croatia, and I suppose some other parts of former Yugoslavia. And people eat doughnuts , not pancakes. Various countries, various customs and traditions.

There's nothing to add, for the right answers see Greyling's above. She wins with 15/15.

Oct-13-2006 02:16

Yay, I won!! First time in ages :D

Who's that girl?
1) Well, she's beautiful, but she only speaks French so it makes conversation a little hard if you don't know the language.
2) She's painted up her lips, rolled and curled her tinted hair and about to take her love to town - that'll teach you!!
3) With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green she's impossible to compete with as she takes men just because she can.
4) And this girl actually has kaleidoscope eyes – hmm, wonder how that works?
5) Might have been spring, might have been summer, but there were definitely hands touching hands, and good times never seem so good – oh, she's just so sweet.
6) She might be like a beauty queen but her boy sure isn't any relation of mine.
7) It would be so nice if this dear girl would smile again and come out and play.
8) If you ask me she doesn't necessarily have to turn on the crimson lamp.
9) She turns the world upside down and get men begging on their knees.
10) Another heartbreaking lady who daily shakes the cofidence.
11) She should just come on because at this moment she means everything.
12) Better think twice before buying this lady a car, because you can't be sure she'll take you along for the ride.
13) She lives in a dream and keeps her face in a jar.
Bonus: She was just here.
