To this day we all use fun English words....all day, every day!

- My Hubby flew to Manchester last week and took my oldest daughter with him for the quick trip. They stopped by M&S and bought cute tops for all of us girls! It was so cute to hear my daughter say that she found a really great store.....ha! Great memories!!!

Comment by Tracy (Stanzione) Smith 76 on March 28, 2008 at 2:02am - My mum swore by M&S. I think she would still shop there whenever she went home to Brighton to visit her family. And I get caught all the time using British words, spellings, etc. Guess it's true for the Brits like it is for the country folks. "You can take the girl out of Britain, but you can't take Britain out of the girl" Or close enough to that lol.
