Linda's family is from the...

Re: PET'S CORNER
It's time to teach Minnie how to use the cat flap in the front door. She is always first there if the opportunity to explore the front garden presents itself! She is still quite timid with strangers and noises in the back street when she is out in the yard. Consequently she will need to learn the ca...

Re: Today I shall be Mainly...
I used to get allergy triggered migraine which came on in my late 20's. It was triggered with coffee or cold corned beef! I have not drunk coffee for over 40 years. I can eat corned beef if it is cooked in any way. Doc said it was probably the preservatives. When I went fishing, corned beef sandwich...

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
I have expanded in the other thread but your experiences with the site are probably due to being active through the night during maintenance at the hosts. I think the problem was probably with a DNS server at IONOS.
