COLD DARK ROOM

[JoesMum]

This evening I proudly present:

A song of John Denver, named "Sunshine on my shoulders " sung by me today and dedicated to two CDR members that are actually not in the best health condition.
I am wishing @DE42 , Dan and @Laura1412 , Laura that you both are feeling better soon and that the sun will always shine for you.

...... and if I had a day that I could give you, I would give to you a day just like today.
....... and if I had a tale that I could tell you , I`ll tell a tale sure to make you smile.

Wonderful once again Sabine

Good morning all.

Daughter returned home last night and she and Son are off on their travels. JoesDad just took them to the airport.

They’re flying to Bergen and spending a week in Norway, finishing in Oslo. Daughter returns to the UK at this point and then spends the next couple of weeks touring Scandinavia finishing in Finland where a friend of his lives.

Hope everyone is enjoying or has enjoyed their Friday. Took some time to explore a very large reservoir in our area...no shortages here.

Sjoe even your daughter has the wonderlust!!

Good Morning all. Hope you have an awesome Saturday. AND A Very Happy Birthday to Lena's Daughter. I hope the party goes really well.

Daughter is appalling. I swear she chose her degree (joint honours geography and environmental biology) based on the travel opportunities. She did field trips to Spain, Croatia and China... as well as many UK field trips.

She has travelled solo to South Africa, Tanzania and Canada to join conservation/environment projects and finished the 3 months on Canada with a month touring the USA (she joined a tour group, but had a few days alone in LA and NYC at each end)

We weren't surprised when she landed a job that wasn't local. We were surprised that it was actually in this country [emoji849]

Son is (was?) more reluctant to travel alone. JoesDad and I pretty much had to force him to go the USA last year to join a similar tour to the one his sister had done. Anyway he did it and, to our surprise, came up with the plans for this Scandinavia trip completely unprompted.

Nice trip there to Bergen and Oslo and points inbetween. I recall having some great smoked fish there in Bergen. Beautiful place to visit. Went all over by train, great service. Scandinavia has a lot to offer!

Good afternoon all... 1-1 in Australia v France match.

Is there another goal in it? We have all forecast wins, but not all for the same team

I need 1 more from Australia!
The only drawback to international matches is waking up 6am on the weekend to watch them.
