Only in a dream...But it still made me happy!
Anyway, here is a photo.
I'm the bloke.
Recognize the lovely lady, anyone?

It seemed beer was the requirement of the thirsty Roommate, so we went to a local bar, only to find it was closed as it was Arab New Year, even though half of my friends in the medina were unaware of this.
So we went to the bar of our favourite hotel, the Batha, which I knew was open, having been there earlier in the day.
We had a lovely evening, great fun, it's always slightly worrying when you meet someone for the first time, having only communicated via the internet, indeed, her daughter had given mum semi-serious warnings about crazy internet loony killers and had a message for me saying how angry she'd be if I murdered her mum.
But we got on great, it was a terrific evening,but today she's off in to the Atlas Mountains and down into the Sahara Desert.
Just a very brief meeting, but really, really nice, wifey very much liked her too!
Can you guess who it was, yet?
Yvonne?
Good afternoon all. I have just caught up. It’s cold and miserable here today - only 14C
I am just heading out to get my flu jab... I may need cake to recover
A legitimate excuse for a cake. Maybe we should all get our flu shot now.
What a nice dream.
Good evening, Lena!
10 days til the first day of my birthday, I'm very excited.
Life's good.
Welcome back, again, Adam.
Glad you’ll be here for your birthday!
Glad to see YOU back, Yvonne! [emoji6][emoji173]️
On Sunday a Roommate arrived in Morocco for a ten day tour, on my recommendation.
She spent a couple of days with her tour group visiting some of the cities en route and on Monday night arrived in Fes, unfortunately too late to meet up.
Staying just for two nights at the Hotel Splendid. (which really isn't) .
The internet and WIFI were dodgy so it was hard connecting, but she would be doing the tour of Fes Medina the next day, and knowing where they go, I would try to locate her.
The next day, I set off went down the steps into my local veggie souk and who should be coming down the next set of stairs but the Roommate in question!
Amazing!
Just 5 minutes from my house and so we spent half an hour chatting, got on very well, I was pleased to hear she was very much enjoying Morocco.
I also met her tour guide and some of her travelling companions who were very nice.
But then the local tour guide (different from the country tout guide) asked me to leave, though I was not interrupting him or criticizing, but he didn't realize I knew one of the group and declared me a security risk, thinking I had just latched on. I offered to pay, but he sent me away. (he later apologized to the group when he found out I knew someone there.
Never mind, all that walking in the heat would have done for me, so we met up in the late afternoon, after the tour had finished, at the Hotel Splendid.
The lovely Roommate brought me some gifts from England!

The mysterious roommate knows you well! Yay for the goodies! (Boo to the silly guide.)

It is Jane
When I met my friends from my Moderator forum the night before a meeting in Reading, I was an eSafety adviser.
My teenage kids said something along the lines of "So you're going to stay on your own in Reading and meet a bunch of blokes you met on the internet and you have the mobile number of one of them and you're going to ring him to find out which pub they're in...... and you tell kids not to meet people they only know from the internet"
It wasn't quite like that. I had met a few of them before at a Trade Show and one of them was female, but I had to agree it sounded pretty bad.
Hello, Heather, hope you are well!
Well look what the wool spider drug in..... I was beginning to wonder if the Armadillo drug you outback after closing time!!!
Thanks Adam! I hope YOU are well! You were missed-)
Awwww! Luv those kinda dreams
Yup!
I must post a vid of my singing, sometime, like Sabine does.
Good evening, Linda.
That’s kinda scary [emoji86]. Will we be surprised???
@ZEROPILOT Ancestry has just re-evaluated the DNA profiles now there’s more data.
Mine has definitely confirmed that I am English and Welsh/Celtic (the Norwegian is a Viking invasion of Wales)
JoesDad has an Indian aberration in his (Gujarat), but India was a British colony. It basically proves what we knew from his family tree... his family is English and basically lived in the same area for centuries!

I'll look into it
Most Americans are much more diverse because we are children of immigrants from all over the place.
However, my grandparents had relatively pure bloodlines. What I have is a serious mixture of people on the wrong side of world war 2 and some surprising mystery nordic blood.
