MARILYN Prices here have skyrocketed too but I've never been so overcharged like you did with the mangoes. At least you wound up getting them for free once they adjusted the overcharge. I had a grocery delivery the other day and all the fruit was missing. At least...

Fiacre Banks @garymarsh6 My family would believe that I’d written that, but honestly it wasn’t me. Maybe Victor Meldrew. What he needs is to get a nice Irish passport. As a retired gentleman of the cloth I have been asked to countersign many passport application forms. The...

DE I've never needed a passport but, I actually agree with the man! There's no reason to make people jump through hoops when our governments already have all this information on file about us. I had to pick up a copy of my birth certificate for something a...

Anna Mary Ann, that is Anna Maria in Italian, that is my full name Gary. Those forms are so silly and I had to fill so many because of our move from Switzerland to Italy. It's also ridiculous that they ask for a birth certificate "not older than 3 months"... Where...

Cooler mornings are so refreshing. A low 60 one as opposed to the 80s is so refreshing. I just can't handle the heat. It's been in the 80s the last few days. Now if we'd have this type of weather toward the end of the month when I...
