COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

Ive been busy over the last few days....putting up things on Craigs List as we declutter.

Just added this nice hand-blown glass 1860’s inkwell, and an old school desk..

You have lots of nice stuff! Is Mr Sully eating you out of the house? [emoji33][emoji6]

There hasn’t been much activity in the nest box for the last few days. I keep hearing a bird land at the hole, and can see it from our kitchen door, but it wasn’t coming in. Until a couple of hours ago when a bird came in, closely followed by a second. The first instantly left and the second started nest forming behaviour and then started bring grass into the nest.

I think we may be in the third tenant after the warring parties a few days ago.

I was wondering what was happening in the nest.

I would take une liqueure over gazeuse anytime! [emoji53][emoji6][emoji484]
We used the French-derived word “gazöz” in Turkey (together with “kuaför”, “asansör”, and such)! [emoji23] And “soda” is a carbonated mineral water.

We would call that soda water.

Love stories like this.

What is the meaning of all this? [emoji53][emoji53]

Newfangled is far from being newfangled

Of a kind!. A love story between kids and lego.

But, nothing beats a steamy glass of salep!

It isn’t in Qc?? I must be careful when I eat — ahem, drink — out! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Oh yes lol, you might end up with a rhum and coke instead of a soda If you’re not carefull!!

I'm looking forward to hearing that!

Until you hear that, hear "She`s got you", Patsy Cline. This is my very favorite song of her.

We called it pop as children in Yorkshire, but it seems to have gone out of use these days.

Not in Ohio. In Florida they call it soda.

You're naughtier than me!

I'm really bad. The little red guy on my right shoulder looks so tempting every time I'm on this thread. Hehehe...

We still have clown loaches because they have personality. They are social and need company, long-lived and sleep in a pile facing any way up. We are used to them now, but seeing a clown loach lying on its back doesn’t mean it is sick or dead!

They grow quite big so aren’t suitable for small aquariums. Our aquarium is around 40 gallons.

So kinda like a opossum only a water critter.
