Good morning, roommates!
Linda, hope your in-laws behave better than my MIL this morning. :/ It was awful. But nothing that wouldn't go away with a few glasses and a few months of patience - and then I'll be in Denmark.
Anyway, Kristoff provided me with an outdoor therapy session. He's amazing. And he ate a bit.

Good morning Lena
You will miss him when you leave, :(
Have you found a good home for him yet?

Good morning.

It's not just me that doesn't make the grade as a daughter in law then :( I've been with JoesDad for over 30 years now, so it's not going to change!

Is your husband's family Turkish? It sounds like they're unhappy with your move :(

I'm having a bit of trouble posting/liking today .
Had a couple of double posts and 'Alerts' in the top corner flashes for ages when I do either.
Anyone else getting the same?
Not yet, but I had a few problems yesterday
I've experienced some problems yesterday. Let's not forget about the geckotalk forum, just in case ;)

In our house we've always supported any of the 4 home nations, but there are priorities.

Mum was born near Llanelli, so Wales was ingrained from birth.

Dad was English, but not such a passionate rugby fan so, while there was rivalry for Wales v England, we'd happily support England when they weren't playing Wales.

After that a home nation v a foreign nation always support.

My Mum's brother married a a half Welsh half Scot lady, so they always want England to lose :D
Same here we have a mixed family.
My sister married a man from Lancashire but his dad was Scottish so he supports both.
My nephews and niece are half Welsh but support England, although one of them has married a Welsh girl so he supports Wales now. It's all good fun and banter in the end!

Yeah, I feel one of the problems is that we're going. MIL works hard to make us feel bad for "abandoning" them, and it makes me feel even worse about not being able to take my own mom. :(

I'm devastated. :(
I haven't found a good home for him and Elsa yet. Will be asking for roommates' advice soon.
I'm so sorry - it will be heart breaking for you.:(
I sometimes think I should find Lola a better home where he will have lots more space,
and rather selfishly to get my life back because, as much as I love him, he has completely changed my life and tied me to home a lot more in the last few years. I haven't been away from home since I've had him - not even for just an overnight stay, when before Lola I was always throwing a bag in the car and taking off somewhere.
But I would miss him too much now so we are muddling along.

Sad on both counts :( And hard for all concerned.

Good morning Lyn. Good morning CD Roomies :)

We're off to see the in-laws today. We'll be in trouble for being late as we all slept in after a late return from London yesterday. Whoops!

Here's a cartoon from the Sunday Times for Adam

Thank you, Linda. :)
I love it that we'll have a new Doctor in Ausgust 2018 and it still makes front page of BBC news on the internet, is reported on News Channels, every newspaper carries the story and even the Sunday Times consider it worthy of a special cartoon; Big part of British Culture.
Hope the in-laws goes well and you have a super day.
I'm presuming no news is good news again ?
