COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

I know what you mean as far as Xmas cards are concerned. But I miss books, which are not available any more, here.

Oh rain is definitely essential for plants as well as human beings. Droughts here every now and then. Prayers take place for rain.

We still get books here fortunately. Kids at school have to read books and the digital ones don't count.

We get those as well: school books, university, college etc. But nothing else.

@CarolM

and anyone else who might be around at CDR.

The flight there takes 3 hours and 8 hours to get there. The flight back takes 7 hours and 12 hours.

So it's downhill, to get there and uphill to get back?

Lol.

That is one of my favorite songs!!
Especially when I’m alone in car, because I can sing my heart out!

I prefer the original Roberta Flack version.
All that grunting in the Fugees cover puts me off.

Night night Gillian. Sleep tight and sweet dreams.

 

[Lyn W]

I’m having coffee with my mom friends. We all met and volunteered together when the kids were tiny.

Have a good time!

Whahahaha. Good one.

 

[Lyn W]

Well spotted! I won't be near any roomies though

How exciting! I hope you have another great trip.

 

[Lyn W]

Good evening and happy Wednesday to you and everybody else at CDR.

Evening Gillian and Oli the terrible!
I hope he has been better behaved for you today!

Oh that's a real shame - I love books and won't have a Kindle on principle, although I have stopped buying books because I already have so many, i do use the library though so that they don't disappear. Do you not have any libraries you could borrow from Gillian?

Booooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Adam hope all is well with you Wifey and Tidgy,
Have you entered her picture for the calendar competition this year (Tidgy - not Wifey!)

 

[Lyn W]

The Wool Spider? Where? Was she caught on camera at last??

No but this is a police artists impression of her.............

 

[Lyn W]

My favourite version which I love to play on the piano.

Another lovely one she does is The First Time Ever I Saw your Face.

 

[Lyn W]

Good evening all, hope you are having a good Wednesday.
I'm just off to look at the calendar entries.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

And I was just thinking about you. Wondering if I should post a pic of a camel just to get you to say Hi.

Hi *waves*

Humph!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Aaaargh! Something leapt out of the dark at me!

* Polishes a jellyfish *

Adam! Lovely to not see you!

Hello, Linda!
How's all the Christmas stuff coming along?

 

[JoesMum]

Hello, Linda!
How's all the Christmas stuff coming along?

It didn’t go entirely to plan. Elsa fell asleep so Jacques had to finish the draw [emoji849]

You’re welcome to join the cards if you wish

And Bea will be organising the unwrapping day for the TORTOISE presents... though she’s always been the worst for wanting to unwrap them early
