By the way, I never have had a beard


It is difficult when you are only 11 years old.

Try waiting a few years.

So I'm quite a bit older than you! Well, no surpise there, then...
How's the coming of the teeth going along? Most todlers get a bit grumpy when they come. You know, whining, biting, crapping their pants on occasion.
Hope it won't take too long!

Listen Doris, I am at the age when you start to lose teeth.

Now be a good little girl and stop throwing your toys out of the pram.

I neither know nor care who "Doris" may be (if anyone), if you truly believe yourself to be "at an age when you start to lose teeth" you must be either abusing them appallingly or in need of a competent dentist or both, there is no evidence to suggest that "gep" (to whom I assume you to have sought to respond) is a "girl", good or otherwise and there is accordingly no relevance or purpose for your reference of toys and prams here.

Not doing too well on this one, are you?!...

Now now, Jennifer, no need to go all PMS on me.

Hmm, where I live we have the kind of dental care that makes the age when you seriously start to loose your teeth you start loosing, or have already lost, quite a few other things too. For which we have dentures, XXXL sized Pampers and those funny blue pills.

I don't throw my toys from the pram, way to greedy for that!

Well, you know how it is with girls that have tossed their toys out of the pram, small as they are they nevertheless have a sirenetic voice that will easily overwelm the concerned grandaddy's "tsk tsk"....

I didn't know that there are championships for scanning. I guess these guys have massive calluses on their fingers, like cellists.

This is the view from my hotel room. Amsterdam is a very pretty city and the hotel rates are not expensive.

Room service though was 160 Euros an hour, which i thought was a little steep.
