What was your childhood dream?

And if you had one, did you manage to complete it?

Mine was to live on a deserted island, do a lot of fishing and be really really tanned. Not sure I've checked that one off the list though Wink

I wanted to own a hotel! But I wanted to do it all chef/receptionist/waitress I thought I knew exactly how to run a hotel alone as I could do it with my polly pockets Blush DS age 2 wants to be a bin man..😂

@tmh88 That seems like it works perfectly, you be a chef / receptionist / waitress in the hotel, and your son can take out the bins! Dream come true for all involved Grin x

YouJustDoYou · 21/08/2020 13:59

I never had one. Not one single dream. Not one single hope for the future.

mangomcjango · 21/08/2020 14:01

@YouJustDoYou Do you have any dreams now?

Time40 · 21/08/2020 14:01

Good luck, Mango.

mangomcjango · 21/08/2020 14:04

@Time40 Thank you Flowers And to you, as well! x

tmh88 · 21/08/2020 14:10

@mangomcjango might just have to do it! Would you like to cover all my roles when it gives me the many holidays I’ll be able to afford?! Grin Wink x

mangomcjango · 21/08/2020 14:12

@tmh88 Oh yes, I'll cover your shifts! But I also want to interior decorate, personally select the dessert menu, and fraternise with all the guests Grin (also won't accept less than £3 million salary) Wink

tmh88 · 21/08/2020 14:25

@mangomcjango wage not a problem! Make that per day when we are fully booked! Dessert menu has to be very high class and once served you must play the grand piano for them while they eat!Grin interior design however...Shock I’ll let you do table decor?

I really really wanted to be a librarian when I was little. I thought using a date stamp was really cool and also thought I'd have plenty of time to read, in between people borrowing books, plus unlimited access to loads of new books as they came in. What a job...

mangomcjango · 21/08/2020 14:30

@tmh88 Per day? Huh, I was expecting it per hour actually Angry Grin I'll make sure the dessert is high class, but all I can offer is "Mary Had A Little Lamb" on the grand piano, take it or leave it - the classiest song in the world. Table decor works, but I'm also planning on drinking a ton of red wine on the job so expect some 'chic art' on your walls and carpets Smile Grin

I wanted to be batman for quite a while, sadly that didn’t work out ☹️

From about 11 I wanted to be a rugby player, specifically a prop or hooker. I managed to do fairly well and played for a high league for a few years. I still play but for a lower league.

I really wanted a fridge with a water dispenser, I obviously thought they were cool as a child. Instead I have a fridge with a glass front so it just looks like a huge mess.

YouJustDoYou · 21/08/2020 14:38

@YouJustDoYouDo you have any dreams now?

I just want a stable, happy, contended life. It is that now, to a degree, so I guess that's my on going dream fulfilled.

mangomcjango · 21/08/2020 14:46

@SimonJT Hey, Batman's gotta be getting pretty old now - there'll be an opportunity for replacement any day soon! And I still think fridges with water dispensers are cool Grin

1 I wanted to have a huge tank of tropical fish in my bathroom

2 I wanted an old Victorian style library full of rare books

3 I wanted to be able to get black cabs whenever I wanted and hail them like a movie.

I can do 3.... (Well... Covid aside) still waiting on the other two
