COLD DARK ROOM

[jaizei]

If you don't mind, I'll stick to Dostoevsky for a bit.
Haven't really got a favourite page.

The last page

The last page

No, that's usually my least favourite.
Often makes me sad.

I had a go, one morning, much to the amazement of the lady cleaner.
Really difficult to do properly and quickly.
Told the pair of them what a great job they did and they were delighted.
here, they are generally ignored, or else everyone's asleep.
First time they'd ever had a compliment!

Yes ! I use to TRY to use them when i was in vietnam. Im not sure how people did it so fast and clean either.
And I'm glad you were able to compliment/thank them.
I usually thank the cleaners at my job. They're so sweet anyway.

 

[Lyn W]

hope you and your friend are holding up as well as can be.

Yes thanks John, its always sad to lose a special person but when they have been suffering you have to be glad that its over for them . The family have been mourning the loss of the person their Mum was for years, and she hasn't known them for the last 2, so it's closure for them.

Rubbish taken away every day by donkey here.
Couldn't do fortnightly, or weekly in this heat.
Imagine the smell.
And we don't use bins, just carrier bags in the street, so the cats and dogs make a mess in the night but it's all gone by morning.
First the donkeys, then the street-sweepers, using palm leaf brooms.

They could teach the UK a thing or two about street cleaning!!

I swept the seafront road in England one summer.
People were very nice.
But i didn't use a palm broom.

Taken for granted....

I did.
wifey did one end of the front at Weston-super-Mare and I did the other.
It was sparkling.
They begged us to stay on, but we were just passing a few weeks before returning to Morocco.

Nos da all!
Heads under wings and beaks under blankets time for me.

Amazing day today in Key West! Caught sharks (one was 250 pounds, 8') and other fish. Sea turtles were around the boat, Dolphins swam up to us. Got to see tons of Lizards including this guy. Today was definitely the best day.

Super, Craig!
I was hoping that you had a great time.
Just you and the Mrs?
Did the kids do something else?

Good night Lyn.

I expect it takes quite a bit of practice.
I made more of a mess than there was at the start, somehow.

No we took them too, we only have a few more years with them in the house before they get grown on us. We also went to a beach that's only accessible by boat. Think it was called Boca Grand, unbelievable place.
We did a lot this week and it was a blast! Thanks for all the recommendations.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

It is time for me to spend a couple of hours examining the insides of my eyelids.
See you all soon Roommates!

Morning.
The sky looked good at home so I rode one of the bikes to work.
Half way here and it started to rain.
I'm soaked.
