'Turn Back Time' - Cher - for:
  • 1) George when her body treacherously began showing unmistakable signs of female maturation, while 8) all the real boys around her continued bossy, immature and boring.....
    2) Every Blyton reader, past his/her (first) childhood years, who discovers :cry: fiendish, unwarranted textural changes and transmogrifications when flipping through a favourite EB title that they have just found in a bookshop :!:


‘Aurélien Arkadiusz’

Icecream, just asking, could you explain why you think that The Wanted- Gold forever goes with Darrell and Sally?

Just interested, as I can't find the connection myself. :)

Is one im gonna take my life through,

Cause some days stay gold forever.
