Dear @Lyn W,

I hope you're okay where you are.

Goodnight

Natrah

PS: Even my friends in Malaysia know about the riots
At the moment it doesn't seem to have spread to Wales but they're on red alert and expecting it.
They ought to put all these thugs on a front line somewhere where they can fight to their hearts content, we'd soon see how brave they are then.
Hope it's all calmed down where you are.

We ended up with a major counter protests instead!

Be cautioned my friends....lest we forget when we have been labeled as "bad".

One person's "thug" is likely another person's hero. Kind of puts the entire concept of the violence in frame. Its: tictactoetictactoetictactoe

All over again with people playing the cymbals of others....convinced in their own moral superiority.

It's useless.

Its: "Do you want to play a little game" useless....

Good afternoon/evening all.
We had another very wet night, and showers until about 2 today, more rain to come for most of tonight and tomorrow.

I had a dental appointment today for a check up, and to see what my options are now that an old crown has broken off. I'm back next week for a consultation about a dental implant. That would be the best solution but will cost a about 2k 😯. So going to have to weigh up if it's worth it.
At least all my other teeth were ok.😁

Lola still not wanting to go out, but it has felt quite autumnal today.

I was watching the skateboarding at the Olympics earlier and wow! How this kids do all those tricks is amazing - they're fearless ! I had go at it years ago, but it was a struggle just to stand still on a board on a flat surface. I'm too worried about getting hurt 🤕.

I hope you're all having a good day in your corners. It's just started pouring down again and I think I'll have an early night so night night and see you tomorrow.

Great pics, glad I wasn't footing the tab....you done good Grampa

Didn't know that you were hitting the pipe Ray. Is the O2 constant or just when it's heavy to breath?


That is my new UK word for the day!

That dental stuff gets $$. I feel for you.


I don't want to watch the Olympics but I love competition.....I think that we all have the same hopes, dreams, delusions(sometimes) & expectations when we compete in any sport so we can all identify. I just watched a kid do a 102.5 point high dive....102.5!!! 4 and one half summersaults and hit the water perfect.....102.5. I don't care the fluff surrounding it all, where he is from or what he looks like....but I got a crudload of respect for his talent.

I called to buy the tickets. I wanted to make sure we were all together. The guy cut the price down to 37 dollars a ticket. He saved me about 150 dollars. I didn't look what it cost to buy everyone hotdogs. I just handed the card to the vendor. Told him to put a 10 dollar tip on the bill.
I need to use air 24/7. It's at 3 liters, I lost the lower half of my right lung in the accident. Also have the bronchial type of COPD.

What a great day at the ballpark! Good for you guys...and the vendors!
Just looked at the credit card.
It was a 700.00 dollar day. I pay that to go on a charter for fishing.
It was well worth it.Spending the time with almost the whole family.
Rose is going tubing tomorrow. Behind my son Joe's boat. She won't go tubing or jet skiing in Florida. She is afraid of alligators and sharks. So fresh water or salt water is a no go. No alligators or sharks in Michigan.

What is "tubing", please, Ray ?

It's tropical rains today...Dad and I are hanging out under the gazebo as the winds blow the rain bands past. The water is very high in the Chesapeake. My "quiet place" at the bottom of our hill is underwater today.

I was going to dig up some "Tubing pics" but we can wait for Ray's. Can't wait to see how high they launched a grandkid! My grandson attained around 15-20' b/c he only weighed 55lbs(25kg)! I thought I had killed him in front on his parents. I was so happy to hear him cry when he came up after the inevitable slam to the water. WHEW!!

Somehow I don't think Ray will endanger his brood.....as much!

Your post has made me even more curious as to what "tubing" is !
