COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

I had not heard that yet (not unusual for me) but I sure hope it’s true!!!

I actually never watched the first one. I don't do horror movies at all.

 

[CarolM]

I do too!!! Except My WiFi sucks so I’m constantly watching the loading symbol.. perks of living in the sticks [emoji848]. I have found that the CDR helps me get through it and sometimes I look down and I’ve burned a few extra calories[emoji16]

Nothing like taking your mind off actually doing exercise. Makes it so much more fun.

It was a copy/paste. Here's one from a couple years ago when my great grandson took advantage of it:

I want a ride, please.

 

[CarolM]

That's pretty funny!

I don't get the one shown by Bee62 either, but maybe that's the point????

I am so glad I wasn't the only one. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to show that I might be one of those people across the border. [emoji6]

We do have a twiddling thumbs expression - it's actually a real activity, just not a useful one for much of anything except passing time... I guess passing time is better than passing gas? Unless we're talking about fuel?

But isn't it burning gas when referring to fuel. Although with teenage boys they may not be referring to fuel either.

This extremist group does stupid on an international scale. They actually wanted animals to be infected with foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), wanted the disease to do as much damage as possible. In the very midst of what was going on in the UK in 2001.

Good Mornooning all.
Back from our function. It was fun. Good company, lots of drinking and laughing and lots of dancing. Now we are back and I am lying in bed winding down and listening to The sound of silence by disturbed on you tube. I love this version of the song. I actually think it is better than the original version. And I don't think that that happens often.

Yip. Russian snap.

Is that like Russian schnapps?

How about one for delivery to Cape Town. You can come along and have some tea or something stronger if you prefer.

Don’t understand this completely, but this reminded me of one of the most bizarre conversations in my life.

I was frequenting a Turkish restaurant in Queens, NY.
After seeing me a few times, the waitress: “Excuse me, are you Bulgarian?”
Me: “No, I am Russian.”
The waitress: “Oh, I thought you looked German.”

—————

I still don’t know what that was! [emoji85][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

We were in restaurant on the Scottish island of Orkney when a Japanese lady at the next table asked us where we were from.

We replied “London” (It’s easier to explain)

She and her non-English speaking husband were surprised.

Apparently we look Swedish or German. “You are so tall she said to me” (I’m 5’10”)

Good evening all. It’s nearly 11:30pm and we’re on the way home. We had an unexpected 7th University friend join is which was great

 

[CarolM]

It is 01.29 and bed time for me. So this is me signing off until later in the morning. Good night/ morning all. Sleep tight and mind the torts don't bite. [emoji16][emoji16]

And coming from an East Texan - that’s a true complement!
