:rotfl::rotfl:...........THIS............
We had a load of hail,earlier, just as I was going out! It soon stopped though, after about half an hour. Then sunny again. Cold though.

:rotfl: Never heard of it lol!
Snow stopped about 15-20 minutes after I posted and then it was sunshine again! Still cold though.0 -
So madam could have gone in nice warm house, instead she came round walkies with Laurs and then again with Froo lol

Il gelato di stasera era "caffe" e "tiramisu", informazione molto importante!
Oggi andavo al Colesseum, Palantino e Forum. Per me gli edifici antichi sono molto interssante, la possibilita di vedere e sapere come I romani vivevano due mila anni fa e' incredibile.
Penso che le fotgrafie debbano aspettare per il mio ritorno a casa. Il wifi non funziona bene qui.
(Pyxis may throw her hands up in horror at that as my tenses are a bit all over the place, and I don't know passato remoto yet, so probably should have used it once or twice instead of imperfetto)
And now in English, a little rant
I went to a restaurant, I asked in Italian for a table ("avete un tavolo per una persona") and the waitress replied in Enalish. She gave me a menu in English, so I ordered in English. She didn't understand, so I repeated in Itaian, which she did understand. Then she continued in English!
Why am I learning this language again?!

I'm actually not Melly, I have very little confidence in my Italian and panic when there's a word I don't know or don't understand. So even after five years of study, I panic a lot.Proud member of the wokerati, though I don't eat tofu.Home is where my books are.Solar PV 5.2kWp system, SE facing, >1% shading, installed March 2019.Mortgage free July 20230

Seems like you're doing pretty well to me!
Haven't got a scooby what you just said though! Something about wifi is all I got! The wifi wasn't working?0 -

Who was it who upset you, WaS (not their name, just roughly how they are known to you). Was it BIL? Or a random stranger?
I bought a new photoalbum today for some older family photos (most are now online, but these I wanted in an album for littlewing to have easy access). If I could get over my laziness, I could start on it now.:heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them.

Catching up on thread, in the meantime: Pip form has been sent off, had a very honest conversation with Swain over money, and experiencing suicidal feelings at times, and thats about it. Came out of that feeling a little relived the form is done, and reassured about how much i mean to Swain and how we do have a future (i've avoided sharing how i have suidical thoughts for the whole time we've been together but he asked me to be honest about whats worrying me and i felt i needed to be honest).This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
