HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY FULL MOON!
I hope everyone has a safe, joyful, and healthy week. I'm so sorry to read that so many of you or your families have contracted covid. To all of you coping with adversity of one kind or another, I wish you strength and peace.
The moon turns full on the night of 11-12 August (depending on your location).
LINDA – Yes! And I remember “trunk calls”, long distance calls where another charge was added every 3 mins. If a conversation was interesting, the exchange girls would forget to interrupt with “3 minutes, are you extending?”
I just lost a long post. Grrr. I checked before I started to see if I appeared to be signed in and I thought I was. I wanted to comment about the sad loss of 2 osprey chicks today. Anyway, this might cheer you up. I went on the bus to a bigger town today to meet a friend and her OH. He was going to an exhibition and my friend and I had a good catch up. We all had lunch (no cake OG!!!) and then I caught the bus home. The driver was learning the route, the location and the stops and how to use the ticket machine. His trainer was a large Australian bloke which was rather weird. To cap it all the trainee couldn’t hear the bell when someone wanted to get off so we over shot at several stops. Seemingly the light for the bell wasn’t working in his cab!! Fortunately, he stopped at my stop. We were only 5 minutes late after all that. OG - I am sorry you are feeling off colour. I did wonder about hay fever as you had been outside but that usually has a dry cough and sneeze. I hope it soon goes. I also hope J’s interviews and appointments go well. Lindy - hope the fans are out. My friends were going to get theirs out too, I don’t have one!!!!
