shakh your bootie

beebee

to put you off the scent dear boy...

shakh your bootie

my interests are purely paternal.

It's a very old nickname that's stuck for the past 18 years...don't ask!

shakh your bootie

Ah. I have a mental image of you as Garfield's teddy bear...

A lot of sixth-formers & school leavers seem to hang around at Jimmy Dix on a Thursday night. Or at least they did a while back. Other than that, I am completely ignorant as to where you might go to practise teenage dirtbaggery.

Thanks....I'll take that into account...No, not a Garfield teddy bear...! Hmm...teenage dirtbaggery....interesting way of putting it!

Sorry, just trying to sound young & contemporary.

How about trying facebook or myspace? You can run a search for people in your age-group?

If all else fails, you can always do secondlife.....

Remember she is 3 yrs younger than the permitted drinking age... girls don't usually have much trouble, but as you will see on Thurs.. my daughter looks older than her age and she is still sometimes refused entry. (That is until she shows her "ahem" ID of course)

What kids are allowed to do and what they actually do is worlds apart - when I visited Jimmy Dix I was with some teacher friends from a well known Expat school (which I won't name). We left quite quickly because it was full of their 6th form students....

Well most places are pretty strict on under age drinking, my poor son who is older than my daughter was refused entry almost anywhere he went... he did get into one place tho... think that was Jimmy Dix!

Perhaps we better keep quiet about it - the yoof need somewhere in town to go!

The pub down the road from my school in London would have gone out of business if it weren't for the 6th formers!
