Looks as if this one has come back to life! Must be from all the snow :-)

Another camera bites the dust. opentopia is on life support, not much left anymore.

Hi feral, mad as a box of frogs is the best way to be. I'm sorry to hear you have long covid but glad you survived. Life is treating me well.  I just plod along taking no notice.  We have lost over 4,000 cams.  Very sad.  I'm so envious of your renovated She Cave.  Take care of yourself and I hope we see you more often. x

H Md...I wrote a nice catch up piece to you, and it's not posted it! Snarl! Bugger...oh well, it just fits in with all of this fuckery thats been going on..I hope this finds you well, and that life is being kind to you. Yes! I do still have the She Cave! I also renovated it . New metal contour roof. Paint etc. Still Jammin; an ting. Mad as a box of frogs, . Had Covid late Feb 2020, now have long covid. Dreadfull exhaustion. It has changed my life somewhat. ...however, otherwise blessed! ...cams are a bit spartan. Some I will miss...x

Oh feralorchid ...  I'm so happy to hear from you.  This might make you laugh but I think of you every time I eat pickles!  LOLOLOLOL

Do you still have your girl-cave? 

Md...hi honey...I'm home...haaa! x

Hi Sue .....  I watched Trump's ramble live on David Pakman on YouTube. It's just the same old same old and I can't understand why people waste their time going to his rallies.  You only need to hear him once.  He's just on repeat cycle every time.  He must pay them to be there.  I did notice that people started sneaking away after about an hour.  I was determined I wasn't going to watch but I couldn't resist.  LOLOLOL.  I laugh but he's a dangerous man. He's an embarrassment to America.

And yes indeed ....  you have to be at your very best for May .... I know exactly what you mean - having done the same myself. My occcasion was my stepson getting married but I probably didn't feel too much pressure because I knew hubby's ex for almost 20 years before they split up. She's seen me at my worst so anything would be an improvement.  :D

October is a lovely time for visiting France.  I see that the French government have announced today that you have to be fully vaccinated to enter any venues.  I agree but you can imagine the complaints there will be.

Hi MD.   I agree with you on traveling.   Hubby and I definitely want to do that again before our various aches and pains overtake our ability to do so!   I'm in the process of scheduling a knee replacement.   There's a family wedding in Florida in May and I don't want to be hobbling along on a walker or crutches -- knowing that hubby's ex wife will be there!  I must look my best and thinnest!  LOL.   Our thought is to set up a river cruise in October, because no one has a crystal ball (I wish) about Covid.   Trump, the Orange Asshat, was in Arizona yesterday, fanning the flames of his "base" here.  I remain embarrassed that we live in this Laugh Outloud state, which remains the butt of Saturday Night comedians, albeit very true and on point.

Hi Sue ...  I used to love those sort of breaks.  Exhausting but so rewarding.  I'm glad I did it when I was young enough.  My last few breaks have just been 2 countries - and that's 2 countries that I've visited before ...  a sort of nostalgia trip.  I do miss traveling.

Hi MD.  We loved visiting France in 2013.  Our first trip abroad.  A Costsaver Trafalgar tour which was fast paced but such fun.  Five countries plus crossing the Channel on a ferry to Calais.  A great bit of fun.  

Hi Sue ...  I'm seeing those cruises advertized on tv.  So very tempting.  Anywhere in France is worth visiting. I absolutely love the country ... and its people.

MD, you've been on this site a lot longer than me.  I bow to your wisdom!  Hubby and I have started looking at river cruises in France in October 2022.  We have a balance due us for a cancellation in 2020, so we want to use the credit before it goes away.  Fingers crossed 😷👍🏻

Hi Sue.  I'd rather not.  I get the feeling that Opentopia is hanging on by a thread.  If they think we are too much trouble Flemming might just pull the plug. Besides which -  I really have had more threatening things said to me face to face ...  and I've always had the last word.  LOL

MD, please report this nutjob to the site administrator.

Hey MD the childish Moron, why don't you give me your address and phone # and the next time I'm in Cornwall visiting friends we can meet up in Devon and you can tell me that to my face. Oh, or I can just find that info myself in 15 minutes or less. LET'S GO MD!!!

Hey Nick ... I didn't realize you meant Biden was responsible for "wiping out the virus" all over the world, just your country. Thank you for your kind wishes for the new year.  All I have left to say to you is  ....  Let's go nickthe greek!

Hey MD the brain dead, I didn't know that US rebublicans ruled the whole world, are you telling me the virus is not in any other countries? The virus started in China and probably would have never reached the rest of the world if we would have stopped trade with China many years ago. Nixon should have never went to China back in the 70's and should have left them in the stone age but you know corparate greed. Actually I'm republican because they stand more for my moral values than dems do but honestly I don't trust any politicians from either side, they all all corrupt and greedy. I have been on this weblite for about 10 years and once chatted with you from time to time, I just get a little triggered when people from other countries think they know more about what's going on in my country than I do. I don't know if you're Brittish or not but if you are, my grandfather and uncle both were injured fighting for your country in WW2. Personally the government has never given anything to me, I'm retired for several years now and had my own sucessful business with no help from anyone, my wife and I have been married for 40 years and raised 4 great childred who all own their own business, I live in the southern US which is one of the few remaining areas of the country that still belive in the moral values that God taught us. Good luck to you in this new year.

Hi Sue .... I will ....  but it's such fun!   LOLOLOL

I can't believe how deep the snow is now  - and those icicles are quite eyecatching.
