Mind you, you will have to bring your own food to put on the dishes!!!

Linda - you're encouraging Allan to go fishing - and we are waiting for him to finish the back 'garden' so that we can come over for the celebration barbecue!

Mmmm.....seafood for me too. OH barbecued two trout for dinner the other day. We just had some tomatoes and cucumber and homemade potato salad with the fish. It was brilliant.

I think I'll give the soup a miss, thanks Allan. - until you learn to distinguish between your chinaware.

The back garden is a work in progress and is now finished except for a few kangaroo paws to be planted, and no we are not trying to grow kangaroos!!

I now have to prepare the vegie beds so that once the weather is more reasonable we can plant a few things there!

I've just watched an item on the news about a little boy in China who has undergone surgery to remove extra toes and fingers. He's only six. My heart bled for him when they said he has to wear oversized shoes and that he is bullied by other children and called a "monster". We are so intolerant of people who are considered "different". He is the most gorgeous little boy.

So Allan - when are you going to send us the plane tickets?

Berona

Berona Report 26 Mar 2010 22:28

Tec - you haven't even STARTED on the dining room yet!

Allan

Allan Report 26 Mar 2010 22:31

They're in the post, Berona!

I always thought that a nag was an old horse :0))

He hasn't even finished the kitchen Berona. last seen, he was still on his hands and knees looking at skirting boards

Sue - I saw the photo of the little boy's feet and felt so sorry for him. Makes you wonder how a part can be so mal-formed, doesn't it?

I always think of this when people laugh at those who have a sex-change. If other parts can be mal-formed, why not the parts which decide our sex? It must be bad enough to adjust after the operations without people making snide remarks about it.

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 26 Mar 2010 22:38

OK.........OK...........

Stop nagging - I'm doing my best.

Berona - I always say that people who are "trapped" in a body that they don't feel is theirs must live a life of hell. The process to change sex is involved and expensive. The suicide rate is incredibly high.
