I still remember the last horror movie I watched (“The Orphanage”, a Mexican film) — and then stayed alone in a practically abandoned university housing that was away from the town and falling apart, with a daycare below my apartment that no longer functioned. And the empty swings creaked in the wind, and my boiler made eerie noises at night, and I was sleep-deprived, trying to finish my master’s thesis... [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33]
No words, just amazement at your bravery!!

I wouldn’t blame you if it was for not cooking at home.

Oh, the strangest things are happening to me: People in Ottawa seem to like my cooking! At least, six of them do. How weird. They actually like a pie with lemon peels, and a salad with chicken and egg, no matter which comes first.
They do sound rather appealing though, so I don't blame them at all.

It’s sad! She’s been raised as a house pet and is a TOTAL Beeeeeotchhhhh, yet the wild cat I trapped is a complete lounger with me:) Your Dilly is handsome . Cats have amazing personality’s...
if I ever lived far enough away from people, I’d love to have a large cat sanctuary.
Just admit it, you would not be happy until you had a sanctuary for every living creature there was.

Care for a slice of lemon pie? Goes well with a bit of vanilla ice cream on top.

Montgomery, our giant armadillo coffee table, has just brewed some tea.
oooohhh, There goes the diet out the window. Just leave the whole pie in corner No. 1. I just need to go and fetch some ice cream in corner 20, then I will be back to eat it.

Linda has explained it to me lots of times, and I am still not 100% sure myself. The education level in South Africa is different to the UK as well.
Can imagine!
So I will wait for some britain people... :p

I had a job proposal in South Africa but I couldn't due to my wife situation. We just arrived in France and she just restarted her studies in apprenticeship. I think high schools aren't free there, right?

You have noooo idea. I just cannot understand why people actually want to see movies about people cutting up each other. The world is evil enough without having to watch it as entertainment. Just saying....
You are right, it’s like watching a gladiator fight in Ancient Rome. I’m not to fond of the gore but I like the adrenaline before a big jump scare:)

@Ben02 what are you studying?
I’m doing a animal management technical diploma. It mainly involves exotic animal husbandry and dabbles a bit in veterinary care and medicine. Health checks is a main part and also some legal stuff.

I also have to do maths.
