How I became a successful businessman
When I was just about 21 with my shoes worn through and nothing to wear but the one set of clothes I stood up in, I spent my last ten pence on an apple from the barrow in the poor end of town, and I walked up to the rich end of town, polishing the apple as I went, until I found someone to buy it from me for twenty pence.Then I walked back to the barrow and spent the twenty pence on two more apples and did the same routine again.

I found with practice I could make the round trip a lot of times a day, so at the end of the first day I had two pounds to my name, at the end of the second day I had a fiver and at the end of the third day I was on the high side of £20 which meant I could get my shoes mended and finally afford something to eat, making sure I still kept some money aside to keep the apple selling going.

Then after two weeks of this, my uncle died and left me ten million pounds.

Since these two are actors, Is there anybody here really bothered or interested with the Amber Heard/Johnny Depp defamation trial? I'm not one iota but it seems that the media are thinking we are

Two people living in another world completely. Ginge and Winge fit in that category too. Boring crap the lot of it…..

WHY?
In golf, where did the term 'Caddie' come from?


BECAUSE
When Mary Queen of Scots went to France as a young girl, Louis, King of France, learned that she loved the Scots game 'golf.' He had the first course outside of Scotland built for her enjoyment. To make sure she was properly chaperoned (and guarded) while she played, Louis hired cadets from a military school to accompany her.
Mary liked this a lot and when she returned to Scotland (not a very good idea in the long run), she took the practice with her. In French, the word cadet is pronounced 'ca-day' and the Scots changed it into caddie.
