The Brits have a way with words..LOL..Great commercial..Some of those things look familiar from childhood..some do not..I don’t remember washing machines with those rollers being child’s play..I used one of those in the 40s when going to the “washateria” with my mother.

Gee, I forgot about those. What did we do, check every bulb till we found the one that blew?

We did! IIRC. I guess short strands were a blessing of sorts.

That was seventy to eighty years ago. I wonder what this world will be like in 70 - 80 years from now?

Talking about Christmas lights, when was the last time you had a tree with kittens in the house?

Interesting thought. Several times in my memory I recall hearing some people thinking everything had been invented.

Late in this century will be amazingly different if our history has anything to do with it.

Oh..shudder! I have seen terrible and wonderful things happen in my 75 years..I would imagine that will stay the same.
I was a depression baby..remember Pearl Harbor..the first flight into space.experienced the .the rise of the middle class, had a wonderful growing up time in spite of all the turmoil and strife ..I thank God for all the blessings and depend on him to guide me through the hells.
I am very concerned for our nation right now and pray God’s wisdom and protection for us all.

I have this bookmarked in favorites..LOL
We tried kitty deterent spray..It worked for awhile but it seemed to always wear off while we slept and a crash would awaken us.
My angels I bought in Germany will be on the highest shelf in the bookcase or in the china cabinet.

I am not going to get upset over things I could have avoided. Kitten are so inquisitive...and they break things while they are exploring.
