Favourite band!

[DreamDangerously]

nope they're right. I like the kinks and beatles too.

[Kneetroll]

I love the Beatles. I have a CD-ROM that someone made for my Dad that has EVERY single, album, demo, rare recording, interview they EVER did. Pretty coo, huh?

[DreamDangerously]

ni-ice. Im not obsessive about them enough to quite want THAT much Beatles...hehe. I prefer The Doors really and occasionally even The Rolling Stones....especially Paint It Black.

(I was born in the wrong era. I'm fascinated by the 1960's)

I'm sure I had a past life in victorian times, I feel a curious affinity with it.

[DreamDangerously]

Oh no the victorians are fascinating. I collect victorian clothing. hehe. My favourite pieces are these two huge black lace mourning fans.

[Jimjamz]

I wish we still got to dress like that. In my opinion, they totally knew how to dress. The only thing I didnt like the sound of was the schools. Well scary.

[DreamDangerously]

oh yeah. Although there are a few kids who could do with that kind of education LOL. The clothing is beautiful. Although I wouldn't fancy wearing all those layers and constrictive underwear in super hot weather. Some of the corsets were so tight they displaced the internal organs of women!

[Kneetroll]

Funny y'all should say that. I'm convinced I should have been born in the Middle Ages (1500's). I dunno why. That or ancient times. Weird, lol.

[Jimjamz]

lol, the middle ages are my second favourite. Displace internal organs? Oh dear. It does make me laugh in pirates of the caribean when Elizabeth falls off the cliff because of her corset ;D.

[DreamDangerously]

My history specialism is medieval and Anglo-Saxon history

I wouldn't have wanted to be around in the 1500's though...not under the Tudors. *shudder*

Personally my true era of choice would be Anglo Saxon England, I love Anglo Saxon art, culture and their way of life. They also had a lot of respect for women. A womens weregeld (her life price or worth) was equivalent to a mans, plus women had quite a lot of power and infulence in those times and a lot of independance. *such a history geek*

That was set in the 1700's after the middle ages. *kneetroll geek* LOL but yes, twas hilariouso!

[Jimjamz]

Ah, I did medieval castles in history at the start of the year. Do you do that? We went on a trip to warkworth castle, and spend the whole day asking our teacher were they kept the dragons and unicorns, was a lot of fun. I was also very stupid and bought a princess hat, £6. Oh well, it was a laugh.

[Kneetroll]

I'm 21, left school a while back ;D hehe. But no, in school I did WW1 & 2 mainly in history, which was tritefully dull! We hadn't studied any good history (such as Tudor/Ancient times) since Primary school!

My brain needs cleaning out. I was sure the first couple of times I looked at that it said "wankworth"

[Jimjamz]

Wankworth! Ha, now THAT would be interesting. Were doing the american west now, we kinda did ww2 last year (but it was more based on the holocaust) and that was pretty interesting...
