At least I think they said cult. We took a number of red dragons with us, two were little fluffy things that we used as rucksack tags, whilst the other was a hat. The Japanese just wanted to get close and stroke them, especially the ladies and the children. The jokes about Japanese school girls stroking a Welshman's dragon have all been used up 8 13 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Popular Post jamie92208 Posted October 15, 2019 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2019 Evening all from the Charente. The house is quiet again. The girls have departed safely and are probably fighting the traffic on the M62 as I type. The builder has gone and the interior of the en suite is stzrting to take shape. Regards to all.

Managed to get hold of the soldering iron at the wrong end twice so now got 4 blisters. Banged head 5 times. I think I'm about ready to give up this hobby as I'm not having much any success. P.

She DOES have the necessary pink tie though, as she starts her operational line flights/observation Wednesday and all the crew wear pink "something" (stop that at the back!!). The pilots just ties, but the female cabin crew have pink uniforms that some wear. For those curious/confused, October is "breast Cancer Awareness" month here, possibly everywhere, that I don't know, and Delta (as well as some other airlines) do some significant promotion of it... https://news.delta.com/15-things-know-about-deltas-partnership-breast-cancer-research-foundation @Ian Abel in which case maybe take a look at this link.... https://ifof.org/honorees Set up by the mother of an American friend of mine in Atchinson, Kansas.

Popular Post Debs. Posted October 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2019 Words cannot adequately express my feelings of sadness for what our dear friends John and Sandy have had to endure during Sandy's illness. Sandy's stoicism and courage combined with John's tireless caring and open generosity in sharing their journey, have surely helped and inspired many. Bless them both and give them ease and comfort in this, their final precious time together. 3 31 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, know that you have a world of support here and electronic ears to bend. Times like this are why I am glad to know everyone here even though I've met a total of three in person, the support provided by this group is second to none, and heartwarming.

Popular Post Coombe Barton Posted October 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2019 Hey, you're making me have damp eyes. Thank you all so much. Sandy is really not responsive. We've had all the family up tonight. She's being attended to by nurses now. It can only be a matter of time, and that time quite short. This time last week she'd just been admitted. Then they were planning to get her home sometime by Friday, but the multiple cancers had other ideas. Yesterday the consultant said "This Week". Today they're saying shorter than that. 38 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
