This's off-topic. Delete the thread if you like. I don't care. These are questions for Fudgey/Phraxy about England and English ways, because you can only learn so much from reading books and watching BBC murder mysteries. Okay. Some of these're gonna sound really stupid. I'm sorry already. Question #1: Fudgey. Is it true that all schools, both public and private, wear uniforms? Question #2: Do you go to public or private school? I've heard a rumor that it's kind of messed up over there, where public schools are considered private, and vice versa... Question #3: Do you still have tea in the afternoon? If so, what does it usually consist of? Question #4: Do you mind me asking here in Britain you live? you don't have to answer if you don't want to, I'm just curious... Augh. That's all I can think of at the moment. But I assure you, I WILL think up more. ;D

It is not scary. It is cool and old-fashioned. And old-fashioned pwns your face.
YOUR avvi(and siggy) are modeled after a stupid movie character who I am going to shame by calling a cartoon, even though I know, it is not, and I know a lot of people are going to scream at me for calling it a cartoon. SO WHAT. IT'S A FREAKING CARTOON AND IT'S SILLY.
Historical cats are better. -hmph-

Actually, it looks more like a modern Victorian woman, during the early 1900's. Royalty would look much more dressed up. But that hat definately says 1890-1915. The outfit, too. I'd say that this kitty was just about to go out, or else already has. The scarf as well as the hat give that away. Women rarely wore scarfs indoors except at parties or other special events. Ahh... history. Lovely thing, innit?

I'm sure I've seen Tom Kitten, in fact, I'm almost positive I have, but I don't remember it. I remember Peter Rabbit, though. I love the beginning, where she's out in the rain painting, and she comes in and finds Peter Rabbit.
Ahh... I love Beatrix Potter. The woman was a genius. No more twist!

Beatrix Potter was good. I always liked Benjamin Bunny.
Okay then; Answer #1: Most of them. I can't say all, but the cast majority do.
Answer #2: I go to Private school. I really don't know what that means in relation to the others though. xP
Answer#3: Phrax does. She has teabags, milk, sometimes sugar and hot water. I just have warm milk and Nesquik banana milkshake powder. xxD
Answer #4: Sussex. Near Brighton. About an hour away from London.

I love Beatrix Potter. The Tailor of Glouster is one of my favorites, as well as the Tale of Samuel Whiskers, also called something like, the Tale of Tom Kitten and the Roly Poly Pudding
Ah. Thank yeee!
I was told by my mother that you called our public schools private schools(public meaning paid for by the state, I think.. yeah.. I'm pretty sure that's how it works.. can't remember.. >.<) or something like that, so I wasn't sure...
Cool! I usually have teabags and soymilk at about four. My sad immitation. XD
Sussex... I've heard of that... vaguely.. And, of course I've heard of Brighton.
Thanks! I'll prolly have more questions.. but I can't think of any right now, not at this hour. >.<
