I have faith In you! I know we will see Arrow’s video pop up soon:)
He's so beautiful he looks like a butterfly only he's swimming. I messed up the tank cycling though. I didn't know you had to add a little bit of fish food but I think I have that fixed. The tests are coming up safe. At least I don't have torn fins. He seems happy and relaxes sometimes...but not how they "relax" in the pet shop. We'll see about videos? You and others on CDR's faith is going to make me at least try. Thanks.

All you need to do when you upload it is to make it private. Then only those you share the link with can see it.
Ok. Now I have to figure out where to go on utube???...I usually go to music videos. I might be able to post it from my phone though which would be the least complicated. I am a dufus on a computer.

I can't imagine living in such a large house. I'll bet there are parts to that mansion that she's (the queen) never seen! Last night I watched her coronation on cable. Then after that they had an hour about the castle. Elizabeth's coronation was the first one that was ever filmed. All the pomp and circumstance!!! She was an awfully pretty lady in her youth. And the carriage!! OMG! It was made with lots of real gold and was so heavy there were many, many pairs of horses to pull it. Both TV shows were quite interesting.
I think it's interesting too. I watched a show years ago on her coronation and sometimes watched things about Diana. But I did watch Harry and Megan's wedding all the way through. It was worth watching. The music and everything was really just beautiful.

At least the picture is there. No motion or sound though.
To post a video, you’ll need to upload it to YouTube first, I think, and then embed it here (web version) or share the link.
I'm going to try. I posted the picture only because I failed twice. And for gp I was going to show how pretty he is one way or another...hehehe

Live has kept me busy recently but i should hopefully be around more now .


Oh and talkin of old phones, i only got this new one due to neeedin interweb for work.

Probably best to get me on the whats app if you really need me.

A huge thank you to mum (linda) for your messages over the last wee while, you truly are my 2nd mum :)
Thank you so much xxxx
Nice to meet you! I live in Ohio and have19 torts and two turtles.

Good evenooning all.

The in-laws were reasonably well behaved, partly because JoesDad’s brother turned up ... and without his other half who they are vile to.

Daughter has caught her first dormouse of the year. A boy of extremely healthy weight - 20 grammes (0.7 ounces)

For those not familiar with Daughter. She is an ecologist who qualified for her license to monitor dormice last year. She has recently set up a monitoring site near her home in Hampshire as part of the Hampshire Wildlife Trust voluntary surveying group. Dormice aren’t actually mice - they just look like them. And they do sleep a lot as their name suggests.
Love to see these pictures from your daughter! Cute little thing too.

Long-press the first word until it's selected, then drag the selection until it includes everything you want. You should see options like Select, Copy, Paste, etc a

Well, I can get it to work on text, but not on a web address.
Praying mantis are sort of scary. They seem sentient. They follow you, moving their head to keep you in view.
And they jump on your face if you get to close!

Welllllll.... hubby’s relief had trouble with his flight so now hubby doesn’t get to leave until in the morning :-(.

I got a camera on the eggs though so we should get notifications when something starts happening... the original hatch date was estimated tomorrow afternoon but with the power outage, it could drag out until Friday I suppose... one thing is certain, if they are not turkeys, they still have at least a 28 day incubation time:))

Mmm. I normally just follow the prompts. I would start off by sharing the video, and follow the prompts/ options from that point onwards.

And today, I finally... drum roll .... did the ironing!

I have also spent quite a lot of time sorting out JoesDad’s laptop and watching tennis.

My absences are most likely tennis related for the next few weeks. Roland-Garros, the French Open, has started.

Apart from Thursday when cricket [emoji967] becomes important. The opening match of the Cricket World Cup is on Thursday at the Oval Cricket Ground in London and the match is... England v South Africa. Carol and I will have to agree to disagree [emoji6][emoji23]

I’m going to watch cricket too! St. Josef’s (us) versus Rygaards (them). Go, Ravens! (Or whatever beast our team is supposed to be.)

Yip, volunteered to accompany the kids to that one too... [emoji849]
