Been there, had that.:D
Absolutely fabulous morning here, with wall to wall sunshine, though a bit on the parky side. If I could persuade the youngsters to get up, we could all have a walk, but I'm not holding my breath.:rolleyes:
ETA: Found a picture of what things look like, not a million miles away from where I am now, but the sky's blue:
Nice. That's the sort of thing I miss about living in England.
There are things over here that make up for it in spades, spending some of Christmas day on the beach with the Heads as a backdrop was pretty amazing. The UK is one of the prettiest countries in the world though.0 -

Everywhere has its up & down sides. That's a pretty view, but getting up & down the hill last week was a bit hairy!0 -

Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

You sound like the Sun or the Star or whoever it was whose front cover a couple weeks ago said (accompinied by children having a play fight in the snow): Global Warming? What a load of [STRIKE]SNOW[/STRIKE] BALLS!HAMISH_MCTAVISH wrote: »What happened to global warming????
Could scare you with the truth which is something like a slight rise in global temperature will shift the gulf stream which keeps Britains climate moderate- therefore would actually cause much harsher winters, hotter summers, and a general increase in precipitation... but fortunately I never did pay much attention at college
Thread summary anyone? I read the first page, which spoke of booze and boobs...? :rotfl:

The mother text me some emotional blackmail, so I just replied I hoped they have a good night etc. She didn't apologise so I'm not either. I'm very stubborn :AWe cannot change anything unless we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses. Carl Jung

Your idea of emotional blackmail may be her idea of desperation.
Do mothers ever apologise? The closest mine every gets is pleading amnesia.Retail is the only therapy that works0 -
Probably. Either way I have no time for it anymoreYour idea of emotional blackmail may be her idea of desperation.
