They planted a mango seed over her head, uhm ha over her head, the mango grew ripe, uhm ha ready to drop, ready to drop, lolz, what about ade our naughty little brother who wanted to be superman, the lost boy e.t.c

you just reminded me of that mango song, good memory... Anyone from Grace Children School... Mid 1980 set

Hmmm when men wer children...

This threads made memory seep thru my veins... Back in those days it was joy reading our textbooks, I remember we used to craft toys with our hands with raw materials from the environment... Nowadays I don't see kids do that anymore, they are glued to the screens. I'd say we stood up and made things happen while now they sit down and watch things happen.

Today is friday Edet and his cousins are eating chicken and rice. can you see the big bowl of rice which is on the table. lol

Gandoki lived a charmed life.........one of my favorite story. I remember d picture of Gandoki riding a horse nd bearing a sword. Wen i grew older i figured out Gandoki was probably a Jihadist in his days. Donno if i'm ryt.
Also recall the story of the trader who narrated the funny story about hw he eluded some criminals.

lol @ Mr Alabi's beautiful goat, "she cries meee....everyday cos she's unhappy"

Mr Nobody
I know a funny little man as quite as a mouse, who does the mischief that is done in everybdy's house. There's no one ever sees his face but yet we all agree, tis he who pulls the buttons from our shirts and make the carpet soil, he put damp woods in the fire so kettles cannot boil....

Railway
Children by the railway dancing round, ...cars by the railway....

Can't rember the title if this one though...
Down by the river side the green grass grows.
There sits nene washing her clothes, she sings so sweet.
Playmates won't you come for tea? Come next sunday at half past three. Tea cakes, pan cakes everything you'd see...

Those sweet memories...lol

Mine is one week one trouble,really found that very interesting

Gandoki was a great war chief who lived in northern Nigeria.He lived a long and glorious life.He loved fighting. Wherever there was trouble, Gandoki was there. Wherever there was a victory feast, he was there...(extract from Macmillan PRIMARY ENGLISH COURSE 5)[color=#000099][/color]

Edet leaves i̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ calabar he is 8yrs old, every ♍öřŋΐϞƍ he goes to school, he like to read. His father buy him a new book from the book shop bla bla bla

In my days it was New Oxford English Course (NOEC) from Pry 1-6. This passage readily comes to mind: Mr. Giwa is a trader. He has a store in David's village. His store is full of things to sell. He
sells knives, soap, etc. One day, Mrs. Mary went to Mr. Giwa's shop. (End of first passage, then questions will follow).

Mr Giwa and His Shop.Mr Giwa is a shopkeeper.He has a shop in Lawal's village.His shop is full of things to sell.

Could still remember d last pictures at the back macmillian 2(Edet live in calabar)We formed the pictures and turn it 2 a song which goes thus:
