You are doing exceptionally well today John.

I've been out in the falling snow cleaning and topping up bird feeders and water bowls. I put some extra down on the ground as it's tough for all the birds in this weather.

i'm out of options, biscuits for the degus, perhaps a treat or fido in the fridge on the salad SHELF!!!!

no food leaves this house unless is a packed lunch

i can understand.
you're christmas card was my favourite as it was in your natural language

Thank you very much John.
It makes me proud to hear that.
But I love writing English. I don`t use a translator. Only for a few words. But the words in English come easy to me. I hope my English is not too bad.
I love to learn more and to improve my English by talking to my friends here. It`s a very lovely way to learn English !

In the absence of an late scoring from our American contingent I can announce the pet section of yesterdays challenge ended in a three way tie between Jacques, Tidgy and John's degu males.
But I will award the prize to Jacques because of the beautiful photographs.
Prize for Jacques.

adam is the man for the job. although scottish speak english.... it's also a foreign language!

example;

the word 'small'

' i have a SMALL home'


here we say;

' i have a WEE home'

a 'home' is called a 'hoose', or a 'gaff'

But more than any gift will delight her, three little words and a big kiss will do !

I am sorry to hear that.
I have no children. I never wanted children and I am happy with my decision and my life. But when a woman wants to have children.....
But mayby she will not lose you, although you don`t want children. Mayby you think it over again.
Why do you want no children ?

jade has a strange idea that this drawer in the fridge is for salad??!!!?

Beer is technically a vegetable, right?

Do you think so, or do she think so ?
And many daddys are only the weekend at home.
Have you talked about the whole "problem" together ?
What`s her opinion ?

good enough for me!! i would say that is an act of charity, i now have ammo for my case

Oh dear. Lovely presents in the post before this one.
We did some research before having our daughter. One study found that happy couples were actually less happy when they had children - and weren't as happy again until the children left for college. (We still went on with the decision to have her.) But nature plays a great trick on you: Once you have a child, you don't regret the decision, no matter the cost. Your life changes, but you feel like your child is worth everything. They're the greatest miracle in the world and nobody will be able to love you - and need you - as much as your baby does.
