Oh well i ended up making a new MySpace because they didn't get back to me grrrr...But good thing is i found my old school friend to add him again which is cool :o) And i have a really cool black dragon background on it...It's similar to my AIMPage thingy so not much point in linking it on here really...I like my AIMPage thingy too but AOL need to get some dragon themes.
Well you may ask why rubber gloves...Bit kinky really LOL...I bought some marbling inks/paints the other week and a basin...So tonight whilst watching House and Question Time (get to that in a bit) i decided to marble some stuff...Just sheets of white card and some white card blanks...Consequently my fingers and under my nails are all covered in red, blue, black, white, yellow and green now DUH!!!!...So methinks i need to buy some rubber gloves for next time don't you LOLOL...Not think yellow marigolds but those fine whiteish ones...I did see a packet of like 100 or 200 for £1 somewhere but i can't remember where...I just love all this craft stuff...I get covered in paint, glitter and glue LOL...Spray glue because the nozzle on each of the cans i currently am using have both gone squint.
Question time tonight was the schools question time...Some of it was interesting...They asked the panel about vote for 16 year olds...One girl in the audience said it was a good idea as councillors etc were all OLD...Now i know the English system for councils is different to Scotlands but even so there was a few 18 year olds and others in their early 20s voted in at the recent English council elections...As one of the panel said to her 'well stand as a candidate then'...To which the look on her face said it all...Now am not much of a one for politics as such but you can't go around moaning they're all 'old' and then not be willing to do something about it...Or is that sensible????? ...Same with anyone seriously moaning about anything really and am just as guilty as the next person...We have a deputy Lord Provost who is only 18 and his sister who is only 21 is also a councillor and head of education on our council...It's interesting to see that Gordon Brown seems to have jumped on the Youth Parliaments almost like he is claiming them as his own...Erm but cooeee Gordon the SYP is older than the Scottish parliament...I dunno how long the Welsh, Northern Irish or UK youth parliaments have been around...Nor for that matter the european one...From what i know of K being an MSYP Gordon would appear to be copying what is already done up here...The SYP regularly invite MSP's along to meetings, they have been along at Holyrood, they were involved in last saturdays opening of the parliament, they do try and get their voice heard by various holyrood committees...Gordon Brown wants to invite the UKYP along to westminster...Hmmm see does sound like copycat doesn't it...If young people can legally leave school, work full time, pay taxes, get married (with parental permission in England, without in Scotland), join the army then why not be allowed to vote...Do think the question time would have been better if it hadn't been full of young people from schools or uni who were doing politics though
Right am not getting into a rant...I need to try and get my hands in some semblance of non multicolouredness LOLOLOL...Oh and school finishes tomorrow here ARRGGHHH...Speak about that laters
Toodle pip tc xx

Caff I am glad you found you old School friend again ~ I was wondering why you needed rubber gloves :o) hope you manage to get all that ink/paint out of your fingernails ~ School hasn't finished here yet maybe today I am not quite sure ~ how do you keep the boys amused during such a long holiday ~ or do they have organised outings planned ? ~ Hope you manage to get some time for yourself ~ Ally x
UKYP has (apparently) been around since 1999 as well. Thing is it's more like an English Youth Parly.
We have regular contact with MSPs all the time, which reminds me I need to write a letter to people lol *writes on hand* And we've had the Scottish Parly at least 4 times, 3 times it was the chamber (we had the new one :D ). Thing is it's good he's jumping on it cos it is an important part of the process, over 400,000 young people vote in UKYP elections so can only be a good thing to jump on!
Hope you can get some gloves though Itend to work with out when Im doing mucky jobs and worry about it later ,lol ,pleased you found your friend again ,Ilike question time but just couldnt stay awake last night and I so wanted to see that edition ...sounded interesting too bah ..love Jan xx
