COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

Yay I got it right, a little late, but I got it.[emoji1]

You very rarely get plants wrong.

 

[CarolM]

As usual, I'm late to the party.

Not as late as me this time.[emoji3]

What is that?

 

[CarolM]

The scenery changed through 650 miles from the flat lands of Northern France through to the mountainous Alps near Grenoble via Bourg en Bresse famous for its chickens (the one pictured marks the region and is a landmark we always looked out for since the children were small) .

We made good time to Montéllimar and are staying in a motel for the night. We’ll sleep well after a long day!

Beautiful.

That was very creative!!!![emoji2]
I enjoyed that!
Where can we see more of these?[emoji2]

On Youtube. Search for La Linea. That is the name of these cartoons.

 

[CarolM]

As a scientist, I must try this on wifey, just to see if it's as painful as you all say.

[emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35] If you do that to Wifey I am going to be very upset with you. [emoji859]️‍

Good evening,Lyn.
My weekend is not here, but that's okay, I just won another prize in a competition on the Fossil Forum, so I'm happy.

Congratulations.

One of my friends on the Fossil Forum just spotted my appearance in Jurassic Park

[CarolM]

Oh but they are... I had quite enough of them. I used to sneak out of bed to go to party’s and now I sneak out of party’s to go to bed [emoji23]

Learning point: Don't stand near JoesDad when he's cutting French bread - not without goggles anyway! [emoji23]

Noted.

 

[CarolM]

Good morning all. We are up bright and early for the second part of our journey. We don't have far to go, but we need to get to our destination before the street market closes at lunchtime. We have food to buy!

Sounds like fun. Enjoy.

 

[CarolM]

G’day All

Saturday = longer kayaking trip...so up early, boat on the truck, things packed, time for some coffee, then hit the road to Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

Here’s the area (Prospect Bay) where we will be paddling....so everyone have “fun” or relax or garden or teach or sing away.... ciao.

History is always interesting. Thank you for the historical trip.
I am pissed off too when I do not get from amazon what I`ve ordered. Can I blame Denmark for this ?

Not anymore, unfortunately...

 

[Kristoff]

What is that?

A sugar bomb

 

[CarolM]

New cheese shop since our last visit 2 years ago [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

Good morning Roomies and happy Saturday..

I love your photos . Load away.

Crepes - a very thin pancake with ham, cheese, onion and egg topping accompanied by a cup of cider (French cider is traditionally served in what looks like a tea cup)

Sounds scrumptious.

Hi all...newbie here! Linda aka @JoesMum said i can often find her in here...so here I am! (You can see my post ‘Newbie to the forum’ if you’re interested...or not )

Hope you all have a lovely Saturday and great weekend x

Hi There and Welcome to the Cold Dark Room. Where it is so dark you can chat away without being seen. Pull up an armadillo. Montgomery will be around to offer you some coffee. Don't let the one legged Pirate mess you around and can normally be found serving drinks in the Penguin pub. The snow leopard is around somewhere but don't worry it only eats carrots. Watch out for the hedgehogs their quills can be painful if you step on them. Look after the penguins otherwise Sabine will be angry with you. If you should need a little bit of light poke a jellyfish.
My name is Carol and I am from Cape Town South Africa. I am Rue, Kang, Clark and Harry's Mom.

 

[CarolM]

Yep, Adam’s name disappears in our replies. I have no idea why.

Not for me.

 

[JoesMum]

It looks like it shows up that way when you reply maybe.. yes, I’m on the app.. here’s a screen shot of what I see.

Maybe we could just rename you altogether[emoji23][emoji23] I bet Wifey could give us some good suggestions [emoji6]

I think the app gets its knickers in a twist from time to time. I see that with quotes too. Just accept it as one of the quirks
