Ok let's play a game.
I am old enough to remember when...........(you fill in the blank. You can have as many goes as you like coz it's Friday and it's hot)
The only eggs in the carton were white. Occasionally there was a brown one, which got left last because it was scary.
I'm old enough to remember going to my friend's place in Dubai (where I grew up) and her mum would take us to the Laser Disc rental store to borrow movies. Or I guess I'm old enough to remember Dubai when it was pretty much mostly sand!
That's so cool. Do you speak arabic?
I can understand a bit but probably lost all my basic vocabulary now!
Oh cool. I know basic because my husband is lebanese. I speak to my mother and father in law half and half.
