Liz he is slowly recovering but he gets very frustrated when he can't remember things. And he is bored shitless cos he can't do much

Must be very hard for both of you. Perhaps he should start on babble ;)

12:40 am

Lizlin

Best wishes to him from an unknown (to him) babbler in QLD!

12:42 am

dizgrannie

wish he could but his memory is stuffed and he can't recognise a lot of words - takes him forever to read a simple sentence. I have to stand back and bite my tongue - as in not to jump in and help until he asks.

12:42 am

dizgrannie

thnx for the wishes. xx

12:43 am

Lizlin

Ah! That part of the memory :( Very difficult

Pretty quiet here.

6:12 am

car.eeyore

I have a joke: Why did the mushroom get invited to all the parties?

6:12 am

TheByzantine

Why?

6:13 am

JBV

because he was a fun-guy

6:13 am

JBV

hi car and hi Byz

6:13 am

car.eeyore

because he was a FU 5/12!

6:13 am

car.eeyore

Hi JBV...well done

6:13 am

JBV

waking up to a joke, nice timing

6:14 am

car.eeyore

I only have two other jokes: An Irish guy walks out of a bar...

6:14 am

car.eeyore

...it could happen!

6:14 am

car.eeyore

An Irish guy walked into a bar....

6:15 am

car.eeyore

...and it really hurt his head

6:15 am

car.eeyore

Thank you! Thank you! I'm here all week. Try the veal.

6:15 am

TheByzantine

Yes, it could happen ... poor guy

6:16 am

car.eeyore

:)

6:17 am

TheByzantine

termite walked into a bar and asked is the bar tender here?

6:18 am

LOL

6:26 am

Hi all

6:26 am

car.eeyore

Hello

6:26 am

rubyfoo

Back for a NY minute, having to look up the poem in my profile

6:26 am

car.eeyore

Hi

6:28 am

JBV

hi ruby - comment Ã§a va?

6:29 am

rubyfoo

Ã§a va bien, cherie

6:30 am

JBV

so glad to hear it - has spring arrived there yet

6:30 am

JBV

we're still in a cold snap

6:31 am

sukee

Here too it's supposed to warm up after Saturday though :)

6:31 am

JBV

can't wait

6:31 am

sukee

We have snow, expecting rain and flurries.

6:32 am

rubyfoo

It's arriving in bits and piÃ¨ces, but cold and grey again today

6:33 am

rubyfoo

All the flowering trees are on the verge and there are tulips, daffs, forsythia, Japanese quince and a white-fluffy-flowered shrub that my grateful birds planted

6:34 am

rubyfoo

I love spring here as it lasts a very long time, unlike Binghamton NY, where it lasted about a week and summer about 3 days!

6:34 am

JBV

I love forsythia - my neighbor has a full hedge in the backyard - great sight from my window

6:35 am

JBV

forsythia is turning green already here

6:35 am

rubyfoo

The birds have all put on their dazzling spring plumage and have maany nests in the hedge

6:36 am

JBV

do you see robins there - or are French birds different?

6:36 am

TheByzantine

light rain now ... 70% chance of snow as the day progresses.

6:37 am

rubyfoo

The winter was so peculiar -- very long and grey, not much snow, very little sunshine -- so the forsythia has been in full bloom for much longer than usual

6:37 am

rubyfoo

((byz))

6:38 am

TheByzantine

Hello, Ruby. Hope you are well and smiling.

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Yes, I'm smiling. My sister just called and it was a pleasure. She's funny and very smart and I was writing to her and had to include the Mary Oliver poem that's in my profile

6:41 am

rubyfoo

No robins here, but we have red-throats and pinsons which have soft red breasts. Most of the birds are similar, e.g. verdiers look like they are green fiches.

6:42 am

rubyfoo

The breakfast room window faces the bird feeder, so I keep my bird book handy to identify any that I can

6:42 am

Trifioso

It started with thepara thyroid but I had atrial fibrillation which stopped that op dead in its Tracks. Had a stay in a cardiac ward and then went home on dozens of pills including Warfarin. This caused abnormal bleeding so back I went for more tests. They were worse than childbirth incidentally. Found the cells so had op. I still haven't had the thyroidectomy!

12:20 pm

Bye, Chrissie, lovely totalk to you.

Wrong way to look at it, Byz ... Your words are too big.

1:26 pm

TheByzantine

My font has the same settings

1:27 pm

jwr

Ha. Didn't think you were still there. ... It's that the letters are squeezed together in the wrong formation.

1:31 pm

jwr

Just teasing. If you mean there aren't enough words to make a good game with this grid, I agree.

3:49 pm

Soodle

Good for you, Hego. I'm sure Worzel will agree with me when I say us residents of the British Isles have learned ( the hard way) how to enjoy life in the cold & rain!

3:50 pm

worzel

Oh I can't agree with you more Soodle. I work outside and this last couple of weeks has been appalling for me. Still, if (and it's always a BIG if) we have a nice summer I shall be in seventh heaven!!

I always think of Ireland as Ireland. Not a "British Isle". I guess that's just me.

3:52 pm

hego

It is just that.

3:52 pm

hego

I like your motto!

3:53 pm

worzel

I think there's a lot of people in Northern Ireland that would agree with you Molly. To be honest what the British have done to the Irish in the past appalls me

3:53 pm

hego

I shall treasure it.

3:54 pm

penquis

hello...

3:54 pm

TheByzantine

the Irish have done a lot to the Irish too

3:54 pm

hego

Hi Penq

3:55 pm

worzel

Well, I guess the Irish have a right to do whatever they want to each other lol but the Brits have no excuses! Mind you, the Brits have always had delusions of grandeur . . .

3:55 pm

worzel

Hello Penq

3:55 pm

hego

Comtemplating human inhumanity is emotionally exhausting.

3:55 pm

worzel

Or is it inhuman humanity?

3:55 pm

hego

and demoralizing.

3:56 pm

hego

Good question worzel.

3:56 pm

TheByzantine

You think. So gather up and go into another area and brutalize others is barbaric

3:57 pm

hego

At the least

3:57 pm

Soodle

Geographically speaking, Ireland is part of the British Isles. In this centeniary year of the revolution, I think anybody with an interest in Irish history will acknowledge that that is all it is. Geographical.

3:58 pm

hego

true

3:58 pm

hego

I think the Romans gave them that name, no?

4:00 pm

Soodle

The Romans called Ireland Hibernia - because of the cold. They weren't wrong.

4:00 pm

MollyL

I've always been fond of the mad Irishman in "Braveheart" who referred to Ireland as "my island".
: D

4:01 pm

hego

the land of winter. :)

4:05 pm

worzel

My favourite Irish character was Michael O'Flynn from The Quiet Man played by the marvellous Barry Fitzgerald

4:05 pm

Soodle

loads of stuff on the internet about the 1916 rising.

4:05 pm

hego

I alway considered the Irish to be quite fortunate that the Romans had no interest in them.

4:08 pm

Soodle

Worzel - Father Father, From Priest to Patriarch is a book written by an uncle of mine. Tony O Carroll. In it is a description of a meeting with Barry Fitzgerald.

4:09 pm

worzel

wow small world!!

4:10 pm

hego

It's a little island Worzel. ;)

4:16 pm

Soodle

True, Hego!! I read my uncle Tony's book recently. It was a well written account of his life as a priest - but the first couple of chapters deal with his very early years, and refer to my Dad & my great grandma & my grandparents, so it was reLly special to me

4:17 pm

hego

Sounds very special. And nice for you to have that.
