Hi Amr Welcome to GR. You
Wed, 05/08/2013 - 07:05Hi Amr
Welcome to GR. You can ask as many questions as you like. Currently you're likely to get answers mainly from the John/Gus tag team but there are other contributors too, for example a couple who are probably too much in love to be bothered with the rest of us for now.

I am sorry Amr I hadn't read
Wed, 05/08/2013 - 08:59I am sorry Amr I hadn't read this thread before I posted 'how to be a good geologist' and didn't realise you were Egyptian.
It is British humour and you may not fully understand it. I can only assume that even Egyptian children will know what marbles are, and play some form of the game.
Over here, if we are mad or stupid - or even getting old and forgetful we say we have lost our marbles.

I can't decide if
Wed, 05/08/2013 - 19:53I can't decide if metamorphosed chalk - marble - is the only marble you know.
Marbles is a kids game over here. I think it is played throughout Europe and America.
