Tiggie Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I've always been a big fan of Japanese culture. I like a lot of their Anime and Tv shows as well, I can only watch them when Wife isn't about though as they drive her mad Theres a show on Netflix called Midnight Diner that is good. Also Samurai Gourmet. They remind me of tv shows I used to watch as a kid, with a lesson at the end for all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had you told me 19yrs ago how upset and emotional I would be over a cat I’d have laughed. Yet, here I am, looking over at “his” chair and missing him already. Silly old sod! pets are part of your family, heartbreaking losing one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Westerly Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 If I listen to the radio I want to listen to music with no overpaid twit blathering on. Precious little of it around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do regret having to decline my invitation to compete in the world masters (master = old gits) event in Japan. Bad timing. I was still recovering from the financial impact of my divorce ...

Bender Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I used to like radio 2 but find they now swing way too far with music selection even within the same show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am pregnant, I’ll want a good agent. It would be worth a mint! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Westerly Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 Both my wife and I have had blood tests for covid antibodies. We've been signed up for this Bio-science study for about 10 years and I think it came through that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 A milder day today - my bees are flying. The first time they've been out this year. Bees have an amazing capacity to store their - shall we say 'waste products' - internally for weeks. So all the local cars have little yellow blobs all over them. I don't know why but bees love crapping on cars. Those small mustard coloured specs you get on your car, now you know what it is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re in a semi rural setting, but the old lady across the road feeds them, I had a gentle word with her but she just smiled and shrugged her shoulders.

Our trail cam picked one up, though not very distinctly - it was our first attempt at using my Christmas pressie. I have yet to see the owl clearly. I’ll try to find its roost sometime.
