I'll be 31 in September. Does that mean I have to increase my anger levels and start haranguing Molly.

Given my general built in temperament I don't think I could live up to the original otuz bir's reputation. I shall remain yaramaz in spite of my advancing (and linguistically embarrassing) age.

No, it is bring your own at ET. Of course you can buy Kleenex at the canteens and when you are skint they will let you have it on credit with interest of course.

There is no toilet paper in the toilets.

The canteens sell kleenex.

The canteen at my branch anyway gives credit.

They charge interest.

I dont believe any of that. (I was at a branch of ET a few weeks ago and there was toilet paper)Except they give you credit. Charging interest? ridiculous. Why don't you point out that charging interest is against Islamic principles?

Against Islamic principles you say. ET is against Islamic principles.

Being 35 years old was history for me a few years ago inasmuch as it was in the Chris_Crossley Pre-TEFL Age. Still, I don't intend to become a Jurassic-TEFL Age dinosaur for a few more years to come! Twisted Evil
