Judy Evans There are no otters in Australia apart from those in zoos. I love watching them as they are so agile and elegant in the water. It's great that zoos now have these breeding programs for endangered species.

Today's trip to the big Tesco.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (18578) • Lichfield, England 20 Sep

We had a lot to get from the big Tesco today, because no-one went to the little Tesco yesterday because it was tipping it down with rain. It had been raining earlier in the day but it had stopped by the time we went out. When we...

Judy Evans I hope you had a list to help you remember all those items. There is a joke about an Irish carton and one end says 'See other end for instructions'. When you go to the other end, it says 'Open other end'.

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (67537) • Daytona Beach, Florida 20 Sep

“Tequila Sunrise” is a lovely song by the American country rock band The Eagles. As you know I am doing sunshine songs and every day has a sunrise and a sunset. This song takes me back to my young adult days when me and my friends...

Good Wednesday

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (82442) • Marion, Ohio 20 Sep

I didn't take a nap today. But I got several things done that didn't require being on my feet a lot. Because of that my foot is feeling almost normal again. I did put an old gel insole in my slipper. I am sure that has helped...

30 days is not enough punishment for waterboarding a baby!

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (19929) 20 Sep

I read this and nearly had a heart attack. This woman waterboarded her baby and put it in the freezer. Her explanation to the police was crazy, to quote what was said: ''While the officer was taking McDonald to jail, she said...

Judy Evans I had to google waterboarding as I'd forgotten what it was. What a dreadful thing to do to a baby. 30 days isn't anywhere near enough for such a despicable act.

A Great Night on the Pier

DW Davis @DWDavis (25229) • Pikeville, North Carolina 20 Sep

Son2 and I waited until dark to return to the pier both to avoid getting more sun and because I used to love pier fishing at night when I was a teen. My friends and I would stay out on the pier as late as our folks would...

Siri Needs A Vacation (and a hearing test)

Chellé @Chellezhere (9669) • United States 19 Sep

Early this afternoon, Henry asked to go outside. I said, "Just a minute, Henry. I have to get my sunglasses" - so nothing remotely close to, "Hey, Siri. Yet, my phone beeped, and she said, "You'll need to unlock your iPhone...

They must really love dogs at that complex

snowy @snowy22315 (159248) • United States 19 Sep

So, I did my apartment shop today. When I went there, there was a dog guarding the leasing office. I mean it wasn't acting in a threatening manner or anything, but it also wasn't wagging its tail. It made me a little nervous. I...

Judy Evans I'm not fussed about big dogs either until I've been introduced or assured that they are okay. Dog-owners don't seem to understand that not everyone is smitten by their dogs.

Are You Delulu About a Celebrity?

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (67537) • Daytona Beach, Florida 19 Sep

If you are then you have to know what the word delulu means. It is the short version of the word delusional. This term is used to describe superfans who have an over-exaggerated love for their celebrities. I guess I could say I...
