Joe's love life was going downhill so Sam said "I'll teach you a skill to spice up your life (it works with my wife and gives her a wonderful thrill)." Joe soon made this new skill his own, delighted, called Sam on the phone "I did what you said and got her to bed, by the way - you've a beautiful home." (Photo of my garden, nothing to do with the post)

Hello Dianne - we've just started another lockdown. We are in the safest place in England (East Anglia) but things are bad in other parts of the country so they've decided we should all be locked down for a month. Let's hope it works.

@jaboUK I heard about the lockdown. I wish we would have one, too. Our numbers are sky high in the US, and are climbing in my state as well. I do hope it works, Meanwhile, stay well and be safe.
