Greetings, roommates! Anyone want to visit my corner?

Not today, thank you very much.
Good afternoon, Lena!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good morning Lena. I am delighted that my view this morning includes no snow! It’s gone! Yippee!!! [emoji322][emoji322][emoji322][emoji322]

I hope you will be able to say the same too soon! In the meantime, stay warm.

Today I have a lot of laundry to do. I swear the meerkats must have been pulling things out of cupboards and throwing them in the laundry basket while we were away. There is far too much!

I had better crack on with it and my other chores, I suppose. Not see you all when I take a coffee break.

Good afternoon, Linda.
Glad to hear the snow's gone off to bother someone else.
I've been doing laundry today as well.

Speaking of the Oscars, “SPOILER ALERT” not likely needed as I’m sure all of y’all knew this was gonna happen as soon as y’all saw it…and the The Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay (one of the Academy Awards, the most prominent film awards in the United States. It is awarded each year to the writer of a screenplay adapted from another source (usually a novel, play, short story, or TV series but sometimes another film). All sequels are automatically considered adaptations by this standard (since the sequel must be based on the original story). goes to : James Francis Ivory for his production, (writing for film) of
“Call me by your name”. Here’s the most important part to take away from this win ; James Francis Ivory is a UofO alumni that’s Oregon folks and if he were born a few years later than 1928 I’m just certain I’d be cheering him on, on the football field.

Hi, Ken, good win for Oregon.
I don't think Morocco won many Oscars.
Again.
Ivory and Merchant produced some excellent films over the years.

Not as much as usual cause I have to work until wednesday evening. Sniff

Booooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope it goes quickly.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Excuses .... all only excuses.

Yup.
And today I've been fixing the damage caused by my neighbours climbing over my lab wall and roof.
Nasty peasants.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I have done my good deed for the day, anything else now is just a bonus.

Hmmmmm.
Good evening, Carol.
When Pretend Chat was approaching it's 100,000th post, a prize was offered to the person who made it, but no extra posts, blocks of posts or posting one word at a time. Somebody went and did it anyway, spoiled the game for some and caused a little bit of ill feeling. A similar thing happened here, for our 10.000th post, perhaps it was. I'd rather it just came naturally and the excitement slowly builds.
Though freedom of posting is, of course, imperative.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Who could that have been???

Ahem.

That's more like it.
But still a tad early, thank you.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

again.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Thank you, Sabine, a much fairer way of getting the numbers up.
Though nearly as irritating.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good day, everyone!

Good morning, Yvonne!
My potato run is postponed as it has been pouring with rain all day.
So lettuce tonight.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Well, there we are, thanks to Roommates 'helping' the score along, we have only 880 posts to go!
Just a few days!

 

[Yvonne G]

Oh man! A little rain never hurt anyone. Get out there and go get Wifey her potato!

 

[CarolM]

Good day, everyone!

Thank you Yvonne. You too[emoji6] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Lol. Noted but I worked hard for my one word posts. I kept on having to wait for seconds to pass before I was allowed to post the next word.

 

[CarolM]

Ahem.

[DE42]

Morning everyone. I hope you all have a great day.

 

[CarolM]

Please don't be angry. It is us of course being our normal CDR silly. Soooo if you think about it they are totally natural posts.
