There is a lot of building going on in our city and we often remark on the size of the cranes that are engaged in some of the construction. The other thing that has had us intrigued is the long-nosed flexible tube that pumps...

Judy Evans @xFiacre Good to know. There are a few female mosquitoes here. How do the males get any blood?

I seem to recall Trump claiming on the campaign trail that he would bring down their price "on day one" and we are now on day 115+ but they have actually started to decrease. Of course Trump just couldn't help himself and had to...

This small Greek port where I am currently pesenced has been florally titivated since I was here in October, and I’m enjoying the results. At the foot of each tree that lines the road in and out there is now a garden of yellow...

This evening we dined at a table on the edge of the waters of the Saronic gulf. It was idyllic, very pretty etc but for one small detail - the food was terrible. Starters, main courses, everything was gross, not to my taste even...

Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 57 degrees F and cloudy here at the Jersey Shore. The high for today is 73. I’m at work today as usual. It was rough getting out of bed this morning. I’ve been really...

Well I foretold a windy night last night after a big feed of cauliflower and my inward parts were certainly all arumble for a while. I even thought things might go up a gear and that diarrhoea might ensue but it didn’t, though I’m...

Travel really does bring out the atrabilious old codger in me. Can’t help it. This Dublin airport hotel I’m holed up in is okay I suppose. The staff have been efficient, friendly and helpful but the food is overpriced and...

DE @xFiacre Sorry, I'm sure you did think of doing that. What happened when you tried it? I know some elevators will still try to move if someone on another floors calls it while your bag just keeps getting smashed between the door and the side of the elevator. I...

I've been to the big Tesco again this afternoon. I went on my own again, and it was very hot so I didn't wear a coat. I've also stopped wearing a jumper in favour of a blouse. When I got there I got a trolley, and then I went to...

The photo has nothing to do with the discussion but is a nod to readers who like to see the kangaroos. Traffic on the M1 motorway heading south towards Sydney this morning had a nasty surprise. The back door of a...

More common sense was spoken today when a few of Britain’s sporting bodies declared that trans women could not compete or play in women’s teams. Trans groups are incensed, but a lot of women are relieved that they won’t face a...

The Horse @xFiacre There are not that many guys wanting to play women's sports. The Democrats made a mistake, giving Republicans this "talking point," even though it is not relevant to most of our daily lives.

The photo above depicts the reason for my current pondering. Among my yellow pansies blooming away merrily in a tub and annoying nobody, a potato plant has sprouted. This can happen if you don’t lift all the previous year’s crop...

I love rhubarb. It is extremely easy to grow. In fact, if you are not careful it will take over your entire garden. It is for this very reason that we grow ours in two large pots. We had them on the patio and that was...

Jimlos Tatooth @xFiacre Especially not the House of Windsor. I quite liked Phil the Greek because he had no filter. The rest of them , eh no thanks. Dentures, well, it will be sooner rather than later and I am not looking forward to it I thought of going to Turkey to get...
