COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

I did read this sometime last week, i think it was. Indeed.
Absolutely disgusting, and I though that Turkey had been making some progress in the last few years, until recently, that is.

Hope our estimate of time frames here ("the last few years" and "recently") coincide to a reasonable extent. Anyway, that discussion would take place in some private corner of the CDR. But I think all roommates understand our need to leave this country.

There's still some unexplored swampland just west of me...
Honestly, I'm very sorry about your nations unrest.
The whole world seems to be getting very ugly.

It was the same here. At least I'd like to think I don't know any person who could possibly support this twisted idea. Though I do know a woman whose son somehow married a 17-year-old. And a man in my neighborhood asked me whether my then 2-year-old was my daughter or granddaughter. I'm 33 and I don't look too old.

The legal age for marriage here is now 18.
But women in the countryside still somehow get married at as young as 15.
Have heard 13, but not personally encountered this.
A student and 'friend' of mine who is a tour guide here in the city and in his early forties last year married a 16 year old.

This is such a fun group! And I always learn new things!
Am off to Weight Watchers, yoga and a haircut! Back later.

You get a hair cut while doing yoga at Weight Watchers ?
Wow!

Wow!

My largest weight loss would be the hair.
It's been a while and I've got quite a bunch of it.

Me too.
Generally I just reach into my wallet for the gift. No card needed.

Hi Adam, Wifey and Tidgy, and thanks VERY MUCH the birthday wishes.

Had delicious choc cake - YUMMY - after lunch outside with a friend, but NO ice cream. It's far too cold for that.

Lots of love,
Gillian (the MILITARY WOMAN), Oli (THE SPOILED BRAT) and Oli (THE LEGEND).

Glad you had some cake and time with a friend.
Bit cold here, too, now. And raining.
Did you save me some cake ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Enjoy it.

Rain stopped play.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

out on time again!! quick glass of fermented yeast then its off to get cards for you guys and gals

Enjoy, John.
Life's good, isn't it ?

 

[Gillian M]

Rain stopped play.

Sorry to hear that. Here in Jordan it just will not rain.

Quite.
Be careful going into the corners of the Cold Dark Room, some of them are uncharted and people have been known to get lost for months at a time.
I think our time frames would be pretty close, though you are more aware of what's been going on and when then I.

Back home a friend of mine married another friend of ours mother. He was 16 and she was 40 something.

Hmmmmmmmm...............

My hair is getting lighter month by month.
I just know I'm going to end up with a sexy comb-over.
Good afternoon, Ed.
