Fleur @LadyDuck That's very strict. I would have thought it was more about the symbolism and the shared experience rather than the specifics of exactly how the wine was made. After all the Bible doesn't give details of what wine was used.

Our village has a magazine which is produced every month, and a group of volunteers distribute it to all the households. I have a strip along the main road to deliver to (35 addresses), which takes about half an hour in total....

Fleur @DaddyEvil 'As the population ages, you have to expect more things to go wrong with our health.' True, but here the healthy lifespan is definitely getting worse. In some areas it's as low as 51 years! That is really bad. I'm expecting to make it to my mid...

I heard a song by Boyz II Men on a commercial just now, and of course the words had been changed to fit the product it was advertising. Obviously, done that way the song becomes corny. However, I wondered if the music I listened...

Fleur I think it's the other way around. All the corny songs I despised as a teenager are really popular now, just look at ABBA!

Fleur @DaddyEvil OK maybe I wasn't quite correct there; overall life expectancy in the UK is stable apparently, but healthy life expectancy is declining.

If only we could be like the quokkas. These are small marsupials found on Rottnest Island in Australia. If you would meet one, you would find out they are also very photogenic. Now this does not mean that you and a quokka can...

Fleur @DaddyEvil Everything is so noisy people don't even realise it's a problem until it stops. But hearing loss is another of those issues that is getting worse and worse, and not because people are living longer - in fact life expectancy is falling.

Fleur @Juliaacv I used to live in a tiny canal boat and I liked the motion, it made the boat feel like a living thing. And I could always tell when someone was about to knock on the door!

Fleur I had to look for pictures. Yes I have seen floating homes, although usually only one storey. We stayed in one in Norfolk last year, and my friend's brother lives in one in Holland where they are fairly common.

Fleur I tried many years ago. The 'empty your mind' part is my stumbling block. How is that even possible? My mind is always full of things! As soon as I stop thinking about one thing in particular then I just think about everything else!
