Spent a wonderful afternoon in the good company of Bomber Command Veterans. I will never forget today, it was very special indeed.:)

That must have been a memorable experience,sad to think it won’t be too long before everyone who lived through those days is gone.

Mr. Bee bought me some lovely cherry ice-cream !!

:HUG: for bumblebee

Thank you,Mr. Counter-Tenor,and good luck for tomorrow.

I’m sick to death of people offloading their troubles on me so that the weight off their shoulders is now on mine.
Even complete strangers on the bus can’t resist telling me about their hysterectomies and their daughter’s divorce FFS.
I wish I lived on a desert island with a cat.

Further by Longview. Daughter played this constantly when she was a gloomy teenager. It grows on you.

I take all these warnings about what we shouldn’t eat with a large pinch of salt,usually followed up with a thickly-buttered scone and washed down with a lovely cup of strong black coffee.
My Granny lived to be 102 eating a little of what she fancied.
If anything’s likely to shorten your life it’s worrying constantly that you’re eating the wrong stuff .

Finding a film of the SaRo Princess flying on YouTube,and some lovely film of Empire flying-boats as well .

Here we are in the 21st century and the Afghan government has just passed a law that allows a man to withhold food from his wife if she won’t have sex with him.
One way of losing weight,I suppose.
