    It seems that we are cursed to live in interesting times, Viva.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    I don't have favourites/not .... to be honest.

    I don't follow politics. They are all liars, who are just looking at how they can do stuff that I have to pay for.

    This one is Anna Soubry, the woman you saw on TV the day after the referendum result came out and you wondered if she was drunk or something because of the way she was ranting on.

    Ah, if I'd been on Who Wants to be a Millionaire - and it was the "million pound question" to give her name ... I'd have not managed it. Even if I were given her initials :)

    I saw somebody else had accused her of being drunk in the 2-3 days following that. So it wasn't just me that thinks she's a secret alcoholic. :)

    Generali, if you are being a hummingbird, (hovering), * do pop in!

    Has the weather settled down at last?
    It seems to have here!







    * Hummingbird - on another thread we decided that hummingbird/hoverwas far nicer than lurker! Lurker sounds like people are up to no good, whereas hummingbirds hover, and are lovely creatures to boot!




    Ps. :eek: Not creatures good for the booting of, but lovely creatures as well! :rotfl:


    Which would you rather be? :D

    Correct. He's OK and will come back sporadically when he feels like it.

    It was green, so my immediate reaction was it's a Parakeet. Loads and loads of those round here. But the beak was all wrong.

    They've escaped from captivity and done remarkably well in N London.

    We have them here in Liverpool too. Appeared in our garden a couple of times. Local bird group say they feed regularly at bird feeders in Sefton Park.

    Hullo. I'm unbanned. Hope all's well.

    I probably won't be around so much in future.
