We had to learn the translated versions of the songs as well as the latin versions.
As for understanding lecturers, it's called a dictionary.
Are we still living in a 21st century or have we stepped into a time warp?

In fact, I know quite a few phrases in latin as well. The one I used recently in my blog was Caelitus mihi vires. I really like that.

Re: Kerry Katona axed by Iceland
I sang in Paddock House school choir, in Latin, as well as studying the subject for 5 years. There's a difference between classical Latin and the church variety, not least in pronunciation.
P.S. What has this got to do with Kerry Katona?

Re: Kerry Katona axed by Iceland
A good mother comes in many different forms and sometimes, just sometimes, the 'public' mother is not a good example of their parenting skills.
I go out for a night out once every blue moon (six months at least since I last went out) but when I do I like to let my hair down and I have a lot to drink.
Some people may only ever see me in that situation. They may be the people behind the bar in the pub or the taxi driver but what sort of impression do they get of me? The only time they've ever seen me, I've been drinking! Sometimes being a good mother means allowing yourself to be yourself every now and then.
The press like to make out that Katie Price is out drinking every night but it's unlikely to be the case. Even if it's as frequent as once a week, that's the night the kids are with Peter and she's letting her hair down. I do feel sorry for the kids because when they're older they're going to get conflicting images of their mother - is she the warm, kind person who takes them horse riding or is she the drunken slapper that the press have cultivated?
Now, I don't know for sure whether either Katie Price, Jordan or Kerry Katona is a good or bad mother. I don't know how much the press have a hand in the impression that's created of them or how much like their true personality that is.
All I'm saying, is that we're all guilty of judging the book by the cover here and there is far more to any of these women than we possibly think.

Possessing alcohol, or drinking it in a pub, isn't illegal.
Having lines of cocaine in the home is illegal.

Re: Kerry Katona axed by Iceland
You'll notice I didn't defend Kerry Katona and her drug taking. Taking drugs, illegal or otherwise is just plain stupid. But the thread had started to move on to Katie Price and her behaviour and as far as I can see, although she's being stupid getting herself in the papers for being ****ed up - that doesn't necessarily mean that for the other 167 hours in a week she's a bad mother.

Of course everyone's allowed to have a night out on the drink, Gayle.
I'm sure most of us do that.
No-one's going to think badly of you for going out and having a lot to drink.
That's normal.
Unlike Kerry though, I don't suppose you take cocaine and regularly get sloshed during the day, use swear words at your husband and kids, have fights with your husband, kick him out one day and take him back the next and talk on television about what you like in bed, do you? If so, it should be an interesting appearance on Countdown. LOL

Lol, I'm not saying I do but I'm just saying that we only see one side of these women and it's clearly not their best side (whatever the male population think of Katie Price's assets! ). Can it possibly be that a mother can go out and get drunk and yet still be a good mother the majority of the time?
To be honest, I'm not 100% sure why I'm defending Katie Price because she is quite annoying when she's on TV, but equally I'm not sure she entirely deserves to be lumped together with Kerry Katona.

Re: Kerry Katona axed by Iceland
I honestly think that these so called "stars" can't have it both ways, if you court the attention of the Paparatsi, it works both ways, so if pictures of you snorting cocaine appear on the front pages of the Red Tops, you've only yourself to blame. Its long be said that these so called "stars" often ring the Paps up and tell them where they will be at any one time, in order to get maximum publicity, its hardly surprising that they are also there when you don't really want them

Re: Kerry Katona axed by Iceland
Warrington is used to this kind of behaviour from Kerry, even more so from her mother. Don't think it'll be too long before she's back home with mum on the Orford estate and staggering up Bridge St. every night from Panama Jack's.
