COLD DARK ROOM

[johnsonnboswell]

I'll make a galette for dessert if you show enthusiasm. Peach or cherry?

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Dark chocolate cheesecake with a raspberry glaze!

Good evening Lyn. You should have seen the HEAT WAVE we're going through here...38 degrees Celcius in Amman! We have been warned NOT to leave our homes during the day unless necessary....goodness. I had to wait till sunset till I moved to buy a couple of things, the returned home and took Oli for the usual 'walk', but he didn't seem to like it much. Could it be the dark?

Hello, Gillian, so sorry I missed you.
yep it's the dark.
If it's dark, tortoises sleep, he just wanted beddy bye byes.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Well at least you won't start to pyramid Ed!

i would like to see a pyramEd.

I agree with Adam here. And I too am sorry I didn't address your concerns earlier. Aren't you like 72 hours ahead of my time zone? It's 7:36 pm Thursday the 22nd here.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

You'll have to get someone to read your bumps - what's that called?Is it something like phrenology?

Yep, a not necessarily scientific science.

 

[johnsonnboswell]

I do a killer cheesecake but not chocolate.

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

That's like the real dessert for me.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Wasn't that once used to gauge someone's intelligence?

Yes, Nazis used it to prove they were more intelligent than black people, gypsies, gays, Jews etc. Oddly they failed to prove anything.
Rubbishy, rubbish, not science, nasty rubbish.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

You certainly seem very sharp.

Lyn's head can split oysters.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Only with silly stuff really. I can be quick witted but whether that's a measure of intelligence I don't know.

It is.
i say so and I'm always right.
And this is my thread.
So there!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Bless her - your post about her is the first I check in the mornings

No, no, no, i always check there too, but another thread should be the first!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

My hope is that these antibiotics will kill the original issue and then she can gain strength and finally live a normal life.

Hurrah to that.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I don't work again until Monday so I wont be back here much until then, But I want to know about England.
Get ready to take me on a tour.

Cool, but Lyn lives in Wales and I live In Morocco.
Joe's Mum's a good bet.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I'm on the deferred retirement plan. I'm using up my vacation time little by little...
I've always had a fascination with England, etc.
Wales is not England?

No.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good night, Lyn.
Take good care of Adams imagination.
Have a nice evening.

Not imagination.
This is the only reality.
Good night, Ed.
Or good morning when you see this, but it's the same time in here.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Oh no! We are all part of the UK/British but Wales and England are pretty big rivals - especially in rugby!
Scotland recently had a big referendum to leave the UK and go it alone but not enough voted for it.
Wales have there own government but still under British gov too. I don't think Wales could manage on its own.

i think it would do a lot better than Ireland or Greece.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Nor me - I've learned more about the US since joining the forum than I knew before.

That is so true.
Think the mindset and food, ideology and language is the same?
It's more distant than Morocco, and not just in Kilometers.
The Americans here are teaching me a lot, in passing, and I have a much better understanding and respect than I did before joining the forum.
But aerosol cheese?

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Has anyone seen the “Black Marble" photos from NASA ?
Surprisingly, (sarcasm goes here) China accounts for the consumption of 25% or so of the worlds electricity. Canada? 2%

Don't you worry - we'll liberate those taste buds eventually
