COLD DARK ROOM

[EllieMay]

We've had all sorts of weather today, sunshine, rain showers , and 2 heavy bouts of hail!
It's quite cold as well. Spring has taken a step back at the moment.

Yuck!!! Really dislike days like that.

It’s just to show there’s better than a pickle burger, me and my wife rarely go out to eat it’s too expensive, you know...the student life...lots of spaghetti lol

I don't eat out either - it costs too much and I worry about the germs the preparer and the server may add to my meal.

Us too, or sometimes a "soft drink."

Soft drinks don’t have to be carbonated. Just alcohol free.


Pop and soda are definitely fizzy

That song was sung by Patsie Cline one year before I was born. I don`t knew it and heard it just a moment ago for the first time. Yes, it is "my style" and when you want I will try singing it for you, Ray.
I only have to practice the song, lyrics and tune for a short while, okay ?

I'm looking forward to hearing that!

I have a wardrobe upstairs that has been here for ever.
When my nephews and nieces were small they used to love the tin of Lego which was kept upstairs and would hide their creations under the wardrobe so that when they visited again they could continue with their models.
To this day it is still called the Lego wardrobe! In the past I have had to explain to friends that it isn't actually made of Lego but is a storage place for it!

Good idea!!) I designated a hall table/cabinet for them yesterday. It used to hold one of the tortoise enclosures but since they upgraded, it was just waiting to be filled.. my living room looks so bare now without Legos everywhere!!!

I agree about the cost. The food hygiene thing isn’t something that overly concerns me. I am choosy about where I eat out.

Here in the UK, food outlets are assessed annually for their hygiene and must display a sticker with their score on it at the entrance to their premises. (It’s known as the “Score on the Door scheme) A perfect score is 5, a total fail is a 1 and the outlet must close and rectify the defects immediately.

Also because we use « liqueur » it makes me remember english people use liquor for an alcohol drink right?

 

[AZtortMom]

Thanks everyone [emoji4]
I agree about the cool colors for the temps.
Those colors are popular in Florida and the keys too

In the USA. We don’t call alcohol drinks liqor in England.

A liqueur in England is a sweet fruit or nut derived alcoholic drink, quite high alcohol content, eg Cointreau or Cassis

Exactly!!! Who in the heck ever thought legos were a good idea??

I think Mr Kristiansen thought it a very clever idea...all the way to the bank.

Oct 17, 2017 · The name 'LEGO' is an abbreviation of the two Danish words "leg godt", meaning "play well". It's our name and it's our ideal. The LEGO Group was founded in 1932 by Ole Kirk Kristiansen.

We have liqueur here too, same thing as UK. But all our alcoholic drinks are liquor and we sell the bottles and cans in liquor stores. But all 'soft drinks' here are carbonated.
