I getcha, I just happened to be enjoying my new freedom on the other side of the planet for my Dad's 94th birthday in August so I could manage to be vaguely enthusiastic via Messenger.

You can use the information however you like 😉...Better than not knowing though and falling into the same pit as last year.

Didn't realise you can't do private messages on Blue Sky, or maybe it's just you being a hermit, but either way I've swallowed whatever it was that made me stay away from all SM for the last 8 months to give you this reminder because a year ago I promised I would, so you'd better be duly grateful 😏

That makes me think of that ancient joke about Ita and several super heroes ending with the line "You're Thor, I can hardly pith"

She is heaven sent 🙏

I was pretty not OK when I woke up this morning, having come home at 3am and slept past pain meds time, and in a position it took many painful manoeuvres to get out of. Had to get a friend over to sit me up!!
But all drugged up and much better now 🙏

Oh yes, let's...how lovely! And how very global that you would be my first real life encounter with a friend from social media 😁

Have to squeeze in a friend in Kent, ancestry in Orkney, former exchange student in Annecy Fr, possible hop over to Sweden for another friend, but mostly relaxing (I hope) with my son
& extended fam in Amsterdam and Vught. All very nebulous date-wise at this point, but we are *all working on it 😁

Hey Margaret, all being well I will be hitting your neck of the woods this year in July/August! Wheeeee!🤗

My cousin was near her due date with twin boys (planned caesarian) and came down with strep throat. Begged for antibiotics for the babies. She survived, one twin did not. Was the subject of a very protected legal battle.

Funny you should say that.
I'm in emergency with a seized back.

And if you use it to commute it can send you down streets you never knew existed 😏

Winston Churchill's funeral, the two Kennedy assassinations, Ronald Ryan hanging, and reading articles about the UK Moors Murders in the evening Herald aloud to Mum while she cooked to practice reading at age 5 😬

Irresistible little face 🤗

Absolutely! Won't happen in my lifetime unfortunately.

Hmmm. Flemington "pivoting" away from horse racing finally?

And I love fried cheese!
February 8, 2025 at 8:57 AM
Made from girders according to the advertising lol. Looks like rusty water, so it's definitely possible 🤢
February 8, 2025 at 8:56 AM
Not quite that Scottish apparently. And I loathe Irn Bru!
February 8, 2025 at 8:44 AM
And just a smidge 🤏 of Scots ancestry.

I certainly wouldn't waste petrol to get chocolate! I can be standing in the lolly aisle and still go meh...
I blame Cadbury's, it's not the same as it used to be 😖
As for the tinned fish...I guess I need more calcium 🤷

My daughter often says she wished she were just dumb enough not to be horrified by everything around her.
