I just have to give you a warm hug because I can see that you couldn't help but squee in your original post over things that had meant so much to you and of course inadvertently you got a couple of people excited over what you could be meaning.
Awwww, thank you for that! :-) *hugs back*
Yeah, I think maybe I inadvertently gave the wrong impression to a few people. For a start, non-Brits might not have reacted the same way I did or had the same reference points. I sometimes forget, too, that some people here are not English mother-tongue so it's easier to misinterpret what's being said.
Reminds me of Basil Fawlty dealing with his guests, he would say one little thing and they would pounce upon it and overeact and he'd have to go into damage control.
Hehe, maybe I should start a comm called "Fawlty Finds" where people could say whatever they liked! ;-D
I just wanted to say I don't think you needed to explain yourself and I couldnt' see anything wrong with what you did post.
I'm glad you feel that way, and it was really kind of you to come along & say it, so thanks again!
