    Good morning, such sad news from Manchester, what is wrong with these monsters?
  • It's morning.....It's not a beautiful today......A dark cloud has fallen across Manchester overnight with yet another senseless terror attack upon innocent people who were out for a fun night with friends and families....Today my thoughts are with those who have lost their lives, been injured or affected by this appalling act....

    But what can we do?

    We go to concerts and food festivals, we sit outside cafes in the sunshine, we walk over bridges and visit shopping centres.....we push our children out into the big wide world full of hope and anticipation as to where their lives will take them......and we have to still do that don't we?

    Took some oranges back to Marksies today. They were so bitter they could have passed for lemons:o

    I was at the customer service desk for a few minutes before a manager came over. I got a double refund. :)Has this always been so?

    Or was it the manager showing off:rotfl:

    After all I was particularly lovely today:rotfl:

    It must have been that then :rotfl:

    Good Morning all :)
