718 posts behind … screw it I'm not gonna try and catch up. Hiya kids, how's all been? I'm well, I took a fall a couple weeks back, not wanting to step on my dog. She's fine but I had to get Xrays again from Dr. thinking I rebroke my healed ribs. All is good. Deep bruise…take these…all will be fine. Easy for that bloak to say! No morning cigarette hacking, hurts too much. Such is life. I've got a wonderful honey who wakes me with my coffee every morning. ❤️

Good morning all!
Wonderful opening ceremony for the quite 'Green' Olympics
Simple, colourful and effective!
Congratulations to Brazil for teaching the rest of us that you don't have
to spend an absolute fortune trying to outdo the last hosts even though
I'm sure they were stretched to their financial limits.
Hopefully they will gain lots from the visitors.

My apologies. Good morning Adam and all CDR occupants :)

I was so tired last night that I spent very little time online.

Plenty of Roman ruins round here; we'll go see a few - early in the day as usual before the heat and tourist-numbers make them unbearable :) Our destination is not far from Pont du Gard.

The weather is looking good for the week ahead

We're hoping to go find Griffon Vultures in the Cevennes, Flamingoes in the Carmargue and relax with plenty of good food and wine :)
Lovely area, lots to do.
I remember black bulls in the Camargue and white horses.
The flamingoes might be laying or have grey babies as they did in the Bioparc.

You can see an egg on top of a mound of earth here which they gently turn with their bills.
There is a curled up baby and a bigger one in the foreground at the bottom of the photo. They are wobbly when walking.

Hi, Ken.
Hope you're back to smoking again, soon.;)
Does your honey provide bacon also ?:)
Good at this end.
Met John from Scotland in Spain for a holiday recently.
Great time.:D

Almost empty stadiums for some of the early football games, protests at the cost of tickets for all events, a Greek disqualified for a failed drugs test, a Moroccan boxer arrested for sexually assaulting two cleaners...........
Yep, the Olympics is here. :(
