Just thinking of it makes me itchy, but as often as I accidentally touched it pulling weeds, I never got a rash. Well, perhaps one tiny blister, but even then I’m not certain it was from poison ivy. Our younger son just had a...

Fleur @DianneN I hope not. But now they know to give me the injection that doesn't contain that, which is fine.

Fleur I'm sorry I'm not really in a position to pressure anyone since I'm in the UK. But it does sound as though there is some serious corruption and manipulation of figures going on there!

Fleur I am sorry to hear you've been going through a tough time. I guess life is full of ups and downs, but they all pass eventually. Hope you feel a bit brighter soon.

The other day someone didn't answer me when I asked him a question, so I said "Has the cat got your tongue?" Then I wondered where it came from, so I looked it up. Apparently in Ancient Egypt the tongues of liars and...

Fleur I don't know where these funny ideas come from, it's strange isn't it? Just about everyone seems to go through a phase to different degrees. I don't think I was too bad once I got past the baby stage (I wouldn't eat any baby food apart from stewed apple,...

Fleur No, thankfully, not actually allergic to anything, but I have found that I seem to be rather sensitive to adrenaline/epinephrine. If the dentist gives me an injection containing this my whole face, from my forehead right down my neck, stays numb for the entire...

Fleur @owlwings Maybe they thought it was a bit of a gimmick. I guess you don't normally get Paraguyan and Persian instruments together.

Fleur That sounds quite interesting, or at least enjoyable! And I think your impression is probably right, the performance was pretty much just like the promo video only longer. Although there was some rather nice singing in the middle.
