    ...i have NO IDEA what "OPA" means...!!! :oops: :oops: :roll:



    can someone please enlighten me...? :ugeek:

    Basically, myself, Dave and Leanne all sat watching Eurovision (we spoke to Leanne via facebook and text) and Greece's entry was called Opa, which, as Jenny pointed out, means 'cheers'. We adopted this and pestered Dimi with it and now it's kinda stuck! We express the word when we're happy or feeling quite excited.

    Hope this helps :geek:

    Invisable am I :( :P :lol:
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
