    Sorry about that BB, I was dangling string in front the kittens and they came off the threadmill, hence the slow down at that time..........

    Stay cool PP. Loads of us in similar boats worrying about lots of stuff. Try to stay positive to some degree if you can. I've gone from hero to zero in terms of earnings. Still on the ever decreasing PUP and hellbent on making a comeback next year and better than I ever have been. The last 6 months have been a reset button for me. Made me think and made me want to change how I do things.

    Yeah, you're right. Logistically trying to work it out. We'll be open right up until the evening of Christmas Eve so I'll have to wait and see. If I can't get home I'll have to make the best of it. And also get back on the dating apps so I might have someone to talk to at least 😜

    I am so sick of Covid. It isn't going anywhere anytime soon so like you say Duvet wash the hands, wear your mask and do your best. We are all touched by it but our experience will be different. I'm getting married next year and I'll be dammed if I'm letting it negatively impact my day.
    We can take precautions or we can lock ourselves up.

    Wait, married? Delighted for you!

    It really is. Feeling it a bit more now because I've had so much time to think, and because I've been single for so long.

    On the whole covid thing. I've been thinking about it a bit lately and the affect it's having on us all collectively and even how at times like this, people probably need stuff like these here chats/ craic/ interactions on tinternet more than ever. I'm one of the lucky ones in that I haven't or anyone close to me hasn't actually contracted covid or I don't even know anyone who has. However the lurking of covid in the background, what used to be the norm just being taken away and the not seeing any sign of when it may end or get back to normal has taken it's toll on us all collectively I think. It's affected everyone in different ways. Believe me I'm a hardy bastard in lots of ways but I can feel how it's affected me aswell. We've been chatting about it in work and everyone is feeling it I think. So let's try and be as nice to each other as we can and understand everyone is suffering with this.

    We will get there though. I've no doubt. My money is still on next autumn/ Christmas shopping season, things being pretty much normal again.... I seen it in the cosmos! :D

    There's an optical illusion in that pic. The blue paint looks like the sky, which makes your guest look about 6 feet wide.

    Ran into a spider myself earlier today while cleaning my apartment, quite a big fella as well. Decided not to squash it after all, and what do you know he's a pretty nice guy.

    Turns out he's a web developer :pac:

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    No need to delete a link, Sam. It's just when they pop up unexpectedly on the page when I'm scrolling through I get a sudden panic reaction. Could end up breaking my phone.

    When my nephew was about 5 he had a Stewart Little computer game, very cartoonish animation from a mouse's perspective of a house. Every now and then a spider would creep into view and I ended up screaming, throwing the controls across the room and running out. My little nephew said 'Get a grip, it doesn't even look real'! I refused to play it with him after that.

    I'm the same Sardi! Absolutely beyond petrified. If I see one in a room and then it disappears before someone can remove it, I just won't go back in there. like for months! :D Once there was a massive fella on my curtains and I woke my brother to get rid. He tried to catch him but he dropped to the floor and disappeared. I slept on the sofa and the next day my lovely brother took every single item out of my bedroom, every piece of furniture, every piece of clothing, everything!! Scoured the place and Hoovered every inch. Then brought everything back in searching each and every piece as he did. My room was never as clean and organized. I went to bed that night and couldn't sleep with fear.. turned on the light and lo and behold there's the spider back on the curtains. Brother caught it this time! :D

    Unfortunately I opened sam's link before I saw the warning! I'll have nightmares tonight!!! I'll have to bring a cat to bed with me. They're spider hunters.
