Hello, gang.
All of the sudden, some new things to mention.
I've been retired now for almost 2 weeks.
I'm settling into $3 lunches.
$3.18 to be exact.

 

[Toddrickfl1]

So sorry to read this! I’ve sure got prayers for y’all!

Thank you @EllieMay

Yesterday my brother and I crashed his old Toyota truck.
We're ok.
The truck.....Not so much

@Toddrickfl1
Very sorry to read about the nightmare that your father suffered.
Disgraceful.

Thank you @Tidgy's Dad We have a lawyer and case filed, not a matter of money but hopefully we can prevent this from happening to someone else. At that facility anyway.

I just purchased Kelly a new car for our 20th anniversary.
We went and looked at it last weekend. She loved it. But we agreed the price was too high.
I snuck back and bought it for her. She hasn't seen it yet.
She's a great wife and deserves whatever she wants. (And that's not much)

 

[JoesMum]

How long did it take, Linda?
i'm waiting for my new one at the moment..........

I received it 4 days after they received my photos.

JoesDad’s arrived today - 4 working days after they received his old passport back.

Mine was processed in Durham and JoesDad’s in Belfast

I thought snails were hermaphroditic?

There are lots and lots of families of 'snails'.
Most, but not all, species of land snail are hermaphroditic, but quite a few groups of freshwater and marine snails have separate sexes.
Periwinkles spring to mind, but it is also true of Mystery Snails.

Oh dear. That looks expensive

I am glad you are both OK

Very smart!

From the reading I've done, this type supposedly have true males and females. The females can hold semen for a long time and produce many egg sacks over a period of time.

• Mystery snails, unlike many other species of snails, do not reproduce asexually. They are not hermaphroditic, requiring both female and male snails for breeding purposes. /The Internet/

Correct.

Hi All, I know I don't post on here a lot but I do read everything so I know what's going on with you all!! I think you all know that last week I had the pleasure of meeting Adam and his wonderful wife. I was in Fes as part of a tour of Morocco so was able to meet up with him. He really is an amazing person and we had such a good, fun evening. I feel very lucky to have been able to meet up with him and am honoured to have him as a friend. If any of you should find yourselves in Fes he is quite easy to track down!! I hope you all have a good Monday!

My posts about this are here :

and a bit on the next page.
It was a delight to meet you!
wifey thinks so too, and Tidgy's sorry she missed out.
Til the next time..................

Hey TFO friends. My dad has suffered some setbacks and he's being moved to hospice today. If y'all could send some good thoughts and prayers for my family I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Well wishes and positive thoughts going out to your dad and family from us here!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hi Linda
I absolutely loved Morocco, it's a beautiful, amazing country. I can understand why Adam has chosen to live there.

Yup.
I find it so hard to convey how great it is here.
Life's good!

Happy retirement, Ed!
You'll love it when you get used to it.
And lunch looks , erm, .....moderate.

On purpose?
Glad you're both okay, not bothered about the truck.
