Pixie loves to hang out on top of the bearded dragon tank. He doesn't seem to mind when she's up there. View attachment 258767
However, tonight is the first time she's ever gotten into the tank.
My sister's cat loves the warmth on top of her aquarium when the lights are on. Big mistake by Pixie to leave evidence of her visit although I am sure she is protesting her innocence!

She is a really good girl. She has Crohn's like I do and we met on a support website for Crohn's and UC. We have been dating for about a month and so far everything seems to be going well. I'm hoping things continue going well because I really like this girl. Her name is Sarah by the way LOL. View attachment 258772

Oh, hello Sarah. You and Dan make a lovely a couple! :)

As one of Dan's electronic Mums I approve :D

Those were the original green activists, right?
Yes, they were well ahead of their time.They were collecting rubbish and recycling on London's Wimbledon Common when I was a child. I used to love watching The Wombles on children's tv in the early 1970s. The band was sort of a spin off.

The trouble with eBay is while lots of stuff does go out, plenty new stuff can get in. Hope you’re stronger than me [emoji85]
I buy very little on eBay, only necessities. Yesterday I bought some batteries and some parcel tape. JoesDad on the other hand spends far too much and has a large collection of Luton Town FC memorabilia thanks to eBay. It started with just collecting programmes and has got out of hand (in my opinion ;) )

Similar to PostNord. I only have two cards so far, but then the postperson usually comes once a week, if we’re lucky.
We get deliveries to our house daily except on Sundays. Well, usually anyway. Our regular postie seems to have Monday as his day off and if there's nobody to cover then we get no mail.

I’m sure JoesDad is of a different opinion.
I have a couple of collections — Kinder Surprise toys, Soviet stamps — that would get out of hand if I were on eBay. [emoji85]

Fortunately drop-off went smoothly, without an incident. No tin hats necessary yet, because in Denmark even the army doesn’t start its work day before 10 am. (Hope I’m not divulging any state secrets here[emoji33])
The British comedy Yes Prime Minister had something to say about that :D This series was about the workings of government and this clip is a conversation between the Prime Minister and his Private Secretary (Number 10 refers to 10 Downing Street, the PM's office and residence.)


PM: What about the other Nato Armies
PS: Oh they're alright. On weekdays, anyway
PM: Weekdays?
PS: Yes, the Dutch, Danish and Belgian armies go home for the weekend
PM: So, on the whole, if the Russians are going to invade we'd prefer them to do it between Mondays and Fridays. Is this widely known?
PS: Well, if I know it, I'm sure the Russians do. The Kremlin usually gets NATO defence information before it filters through to us at Number 10.

Husband teaches international relations. This is THE classic. He even gave a foreign policy workshop once based solely on Yes, Prime Minister.

I might be able sometimes to say a word or three against the Lord of the Rings just to tease him, but both Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister are sacred in our home. [emoji23]
