Of course she had to pull faces.

Moira in 1986, just before we married.

Fubar is right, Moira is indeed a peach. How did you get so lucky Eichhörnchen ?

Eichhörnchen · 05-01-17, 11:59 AM

Her eyesight's not so good

Catfish · 05-01-17, 12:14 PM

And nice pictures, thanks for posting. Moira is beautiful.
Must be ages ago that i was in Scotland, but i still cherish the idea to make a GB tour with some friends of mine, and of course visit those distilleries

Have been in Nuremberg for two weeks on a fair, thank god it's over. I will spare you photos of that

Eichhörnchen · 05-01-17, 03:01 PM

Thanks, CW and Catfish; I know how lucky I am.

I'm sure if asked, Moira would say she was lucky as well.

Eichhörnchen · 05-03-17, 07:50 AM

Thanks, I hope so. I took the pics for her Facebook page... she wanted an honest up-to-date image, warts and all, but I couldn't find any. Sorry, Moira.

Makes you wonder jim what is the point? Take a look as these notes and say good bye to them.

Putting up a washing line for the boss at the rear of the property (one end connected to a stout fence post) and snapped the hook that is meant to go into a brick wall so eBay score again

^Sun-dried pillow cases have cachet of their own!

Reminds me of my daughter's experience in France as a 9th grade International Student. Unlike her mom and I who grew up with a clothesline, she had never seen a clothesline in her life and was mortified when her hardworking French mom- hostess, struggling to keep a passel of spoiled-rotten American juvenile girls in clean skivvies, 'hung it all out to dry" (soda speke). My poor daughter in a E-mail, 'professed to be embarrassed' at the world-view of her 'dainty' under-garments. My wife and I were considerably bemused by this inadvertent but glaring omission of childrearing. Some years later, on a trip through Lancaster County PA, I was able to redress the parental shortcoming: showing the still-mortified young lady that in Amish country clotheslines are the norm: every home had one-and not in the rear yard either!...as I carefully avoided hittin' horse-drawn buggies!

My normal lot are in tonight so with luck should get away for 9:30pm with luck then straight to bed and not get up still Monday. I have a lot on next week at work..

LAST DAY TO SPEND THE PAPER £5 NOTE

http://news.sky.com/story/old-five-p...-week-10862641

I still got one which I will spend on the way in to work this afternoon.

Jimbuna · 05-05-17, 08:32 AM

Took my deep sea divers to the bank on Monday so hopefully that will be the end of them but the new one does have a major grammar mistake some would have us believe.

What an awful quote to put on a 5-pound note!

We can simply assume that anyone earning it is providing "blood tears, toil and sweat"

(no comma needed with use of 'and' after toil) . I notice to, that the ten-pound note is also due for extinction later this summer; I keep two in my wallet at all times! Perhaps they become a collector item...
