Unfortunately there was a field fire on the Isle of Sheppey yesterday (where we went birdwatching) We can’t see it this morning, so hopefully it is out. This is what we could see yesterday

It’s the abomination of chicken sausage that needs to be banned! If you can’t make sausage out of pork then don’t bother!

EDIT
Actually that’s not strictly true - other meats are fine in sausage ... and even quorn... but chicken is a complete waste of time!

I like chicken sausage ![emoji33]

Hope everyone has read about the ordeal poor meerkats are going through: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-45054964 Maybe we should start taking in some rescues to keep them out of the heat?
[emoji48][emoji56]

No, please no more meerkats in the CDR. The ones we have are annoying enough !

The rain is not the problem. It's actually an accumulation of several small things, and a few major.
The big issues are the crazy cost of living, in just the few years we've been here everything has gone up, groceries alone are a nightmare. It's to "city", every month a new subdivision is getting started being built. We want space and privacy and that is steadily disappearing here.
Some of the smaller things are stuff like, we miss thunderstorms (they just don't happen here), the roads are horribly maintained, to much air traffic in our area, etc.
It's just not the place we want to put down roots.

Morocco is good.
Not much rain, but enough.
Very, very reasonable cost of living, groceries very cheap.
Plenty of countryside within walking distance, lots of space and privacy if you want it.
We get spectacular thunderstorms.
No bothersome air traffic.
But the roads are pretty badly maintained, can't have everything!

And if the Boxer dog belonged to a sporting boxer, a boxed Box turtle saved from a boxer's Boxer.

I believe the people are also very friendly and have beautiful angelic voices too.[emoji6]

Hmm.... some people have.... others not. Hmm...

The England fans have been very wary of travelling to Russia. At the Euros in 2016, Russian hooligans travelled to Marseille and there was a lot of violence against England fans. They decided to err on the side of caution and not travel.

There used to be a lot of hooliganism in English football, but thankfully that has been all but wiped out for over 20 years. However, it is still common in some countries (Russia, Turkey...) and those hooligans seem to regard England fans as good target sadly.

It was also assumed, based on past form, that there was no way England would get out of the group stages

The scaremongering of the British media was disgraceful.
By the time people realized that Russians are actually not going to eat your children, beat you up or arrest you as a spy, they are not all madly racist and bears do not roam the streets it was too late for people to go out and support our young team.
PR job, for sure, but Russia made an excellent of of hosting this World Cup!

It is good that you are so satisfied living in Morocco.
Groceries are cheap ? Lettuce too ? Most things are imported from Spain I think ?
