So I'm guessing I won't see any difference from here. Good job they're getting new toilets for the park, though. :)

I can see it's lit up but I can't see any work going on. The cost of wages would be prohibitive at this time of night .... unless they are running late on contract. If I had a car I'd go and have a look. LOL!!!

Looks like they're working on the lighthouse, even this late. Can't wait to see the refinished product. I usually stay away from sweets but since it's a "holiday", I could go for a whoopee pie.

It's 45 here but feeling colder. Pinky finger will do nicely. I tuned in today just in time to hear one of Trump's lying defence say that Ukraine didn't know the funds had been withheld at the time of the phone call. Everybody knows that they did. I decided it would inflame me ...

Some sun with a high of 59F here, but rain starting around 3pm. That's just perfect, gives me an excuse for not going to the park for some excercise. :-) Found ring and discovered it no longer fits ring finger...moved it to pinky. I had a lovely ceramic Buddha on my patio year...

"Last of the Summer Wine" has a northern accent. I loved the series. Simple fun, no swearing and no violence. I read today that Canada has the most similarity to UK English language, rather than the US. I did languages at school .... although I did get thrown out of German cla...

Fascinating......linguistics is a hobby of mine and I especially love hearing new dialects. Lots of Maine expressions came from the UK (collywobbles, per se) and the Maine dialect itself is different from the other states, even from the rest of New England. I learned a lot of e...

This is another good site: http://www.nakedtranslations.com/en/2006/a-load-of-tosh-2/ I'm from the Black Country where we have our own dialect. Wolverhampton people are known as Yam Yams because instead of saying "you are," they say "y'am." Picture the scene .... you bump int...

I was just thinking, I have some lovely jewelry my Chinese friend gave me years ago......a pendant with my name in Chinese and a silver ring in the shape of a snake. I must go find them and put them on to celebrate. Is this a BJ evening for you?

BJ is Pisces. Hubby is same as me and 2 Aries under the same roof can get heated. I don't bother reading horoscopes. Load of old tosh. (Research?) LOL

Not really....though I WAS in management. LOL I'm a Pisces but don't really subscribe to astrology. It's fun to play with though. My mother and I are/were same sign and couldn't be more different. : >

It's not fair. You have 3 lucky numbers, my hubby has 3 ...... and I only have 2. I see you are a metal snake. Does the profile fit you? When I'm not a rat I'm Aries and the profile fits me exactly.
