Steve and Hosta, I just can't understand how families can behave in that way. Surely, family love should mean we accept the life choices of other family members, and work hard to be welcoming to the life partners of their choice. Anything else is arrogant and indefensible. As others have said, you are better than them. Stay happy!
Runny, so sorry to hear the shingles has a firm grip. Hope the pain subsides soon.
Panda, fantastic news about the job! Hope you have a really relaxing, happy holiday. And re "job that pays well" versus "working with nice people", I'd choose the nice people every time, if you can afford it.
Wonky, very well done passing the driving theory! You've done the most difficult bit in my opinion. Onwards & upwards!
Busy Lizzie. I'm a practising Christian too. I haven't joined in the pro/anti religion debate because a) I'm a bit of a coward and b) it seems unnecessarily divisive for this forum. Maybe it's enough to say that I detest intolerance, and believe that it's intolerance, not faith, which is the root cause of wars etc.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Hi Verdun, of course i am lol . Very, very, VERY passionately Protective as he is my son. I gave him life and im Fecked if Anyone is going to have hands in trying to wreck it...."Not on My Watch" .
I also feel, certain people feel threatened...(have no idea why but have came across that quite a few times) . Aww well, their loss eh? .
Hosta, you are Very Welcome and i hope you both enjoy this afternoon and a bit of chill time with loads laughs/food/cuddles. .
Steve, glad your back! how could anyone be rude to such a lovely fella?!?! as for your OH family, rest in the knowledge that they area dying out breed of ignorant hypocrites! Your larger than life to us! x
Hope the preparations for your BBQ go well BusyL fingers crossed for good weather!
Thanks Liri looking forward to starting practical driving lessons again soon! Shouldn't need many now! I agree with you on the debate.....its a shame so much harm is caused in the name of so many faiths! Not the true intention of any of the religions!
Time for a mid afternoon snooze as the chaps are watching football and the cats and I aren't really up for that!
Rain stopped play here. But not before I got quite a lot done. Very pleased with my first "Kefidget" delphinium to flower .....seeds from KEF, from an original Fidget plant ......

Having a bit of a stroll earlier, I discovered where our foxes live.
To be fair the chewed hind legs of a rabbit outside the hole were a bit of a clue .
Oooh, sloppy housekeeping!
