ampersand enjoy your jaunt across the ditch, sounds like you've prepared for a siege - which in fact will be this side of the water I think. No media allowed in my house tomorrow.
Sweet dreams0 -
No media in mine either.
Red is one of 'my' colours (green is the other, my eyes are green) so I will be head to foot in red tomorrow. Sadly my boots with red panels in are so uncomfortable, but I own red socks. Will have to substitute pink bra tho.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -
I'm avoiding much of the media today too and wearing a red shirt I have found, just my little protest even if I only know why. Think I'll be out when it happens too.
