Me neither x

Mary booked a holiday to sunny Spain
She'd been when she was young, thought she'd go again
A tiny red bikini she put in her case

Quote from: GrannyMac on Yesterday at 11:26:56 PMNot a criticism, just different.

Mary tripped, fell on the floor
She got up quick, her knees were sore
Under the chair she thought she saw
A small white fluffy furry paw
It was the dog that lived next door.

Do all five lines sound the same to you?
They don't to me, there's three and two
Cos paw is 'aw' and sore is 'o'
In Scottish tongue thats how it goes
I'll say bye bye, goodnight, toodleoo 😁


Sorry Granny,   I didn't mean to give the impression I was criticising,  because I wasn't - promise.  x

Thank you Klondie,  but that doesn't explain why I am logged in first thing in the morning when I haven't been on here for perhaps 8/9 hours, but it all disappears after tea every day?
I am off-line longer overnight than I am during the day if you see what I mean.
Not to worry,  I was just curious.  Thanks.

How long you stay logged in depends on what you select when you log in.
I and I suspect many others just specify forever by setting the dropdown to that in the form before submitting it. The appearance of the form can vary between devices. This is the one one my phone (I logged out to get it as I dont normally see it at all)

I like some poetry, and yes we remember the rhymes from childhood.  I quite like this from a modern poet called Brian Bilston.

Quote from: GrannyMac on Yesterday at 05:38:46 PMSo Pauls's wife went and knocked at his door
But was told its not against the Law
So she told him a thing or two
The air turned quite blue
'Cos she couldn't forget what she saw!

(Law and saw don't rhyme with door for us Scots 😉)



Oooer . . .     :hmm:
