To much energetic young ladies for this old bloke. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My body will soon be 51 but my conscious mind is timeless and as such I am able to place myself anywhere that my state of conscious mind decrees. Remember, healthy mind, healthy body, and as a result in my case nothing much has changed. I shall add there is nothing stopping anyone else taking such a path, in fact I would suggest that it has much to be recommended. Gibbo. Agree re the attitude of mind but some things require a level of physical fitness I no longer possess, or at 68, could expect to have. As an example I would love to still be able to play football but..... 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songs I do not know I will listen to, sometimes I admit I will click the stop button, but usually listen to and then say never again. 2 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Clive, There is a form of divination known as scrying where the scryer stares into a black mirror made from obsidian or into an obsidian bowl filled with water. John Dee and Nostradamus are two well known scryers you may have heard of. This would be done as part of shadow work within ones own psyche. To quote Nietzsche: "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."

Yes, but if Nietzsche had had a train set he wouldn't have been so grumpy and written stuff like that. John. 3 1 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheesysmith Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Clive, some other threads have polls or semi competition. How about you provide the dimensions of the platform and the frontage, and see what designs people submit. Sketches and plans in keeping with the back story would be needed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that has changed shape is y right hand collar bone that I broke falling off my motorbike, but then I'm daft enough to ride one so it serves me right. Knowing that you have read some of my posts I am rather surprised that judging me by your own standards would be thought appropriate by any of you out there !!!

Cheers James Hi James, I'm not happy with the shade of yellow that I used and I think that I would prefer a lighter shade so it has stalled until I decide what to do. Yellow paint being what it is that could be difficult to sort out even I find a lighter shade. This is quite a problem because the shops are closed and looking at paint shades on line isn't good.
